Variables:

Source charge, Q = 3 micro C = 3 * 10^ - 6 C

E = electric field = 2.86 * 10 ^5 N/C

K = 8.99 * 10^9 N * m^2 / C

d = distance = ?

Formula:

E = K * Q / (d^2) => d^2 = K * Q / E

=> d^2 = 8.99 * 10^9 N * m^2 / C * 3 * 10^ -6 C / (2.86 * 10^ 5 N/C)

d^2 = 9.43 * 10 ^ -2 m^2

=> d = 3.07 * 10^-1 m

Answer: 0.307 m

Note: it is a long distance due to the Electric field is very low

Stella is driving down a steep hill. She should keep her car __________ to help _________. a. light, it speed up in a higher b.

frez [133]

Answer:

<em>The Answer is both B and C, </em><em>since it has same options from the question given. Gear, slow her vehicle in a lower</em>

Explanation:

<em>The use of a lower gear in a vehicle helps a person to control their speed limits, when approaching a hill. it also saves the brakes too, using the brakes down a hill can overheat the gear and causes brake failures</em>

<em>By changing in into a lower gear and also letting the engine to do the brake work in a vehicle, the engine will absorb a force and slow the vehicle down, but in most cases brakes can be applied but with lesser pressure.</em>

<em>In this case Stella need to slow down by applying her lower gear down a hill to avoid accidents on the road, by controlling her speed limits and for safety precaution</em>

(a) when rebuilding her car's engine, a physics major must exert 300 n of force to insert a dry steel piston into a steel cylind

Vilka [71]

There are some missing data in the text of the problem. I've found them online:
a) coefficient of friction dry steel piston - steel cilinder: 0.3
b) coefficient of friction with oil in between the surfaces: 0.03

Solution:
a) The force F applied by the person (300 N) must be at least equal to the frictional force, given by:
$F_f = \mu N$
where $\mu$ is the coefficient of friction, while N is the normal force. So we have:
$F=\mu N$
since we know that F=300 N and $\mu=0.3$ , we can find N, the magnitude of the normal force:
$N= \frac{F}{\mu}= \frac{300 N}{0.3}=1000 N$

b) The problem is identical to that of the first part; however, this time the coefficienct of friction is $\mu=0.03$ due to the presence of the oil. Therefore, we have:
$N= \frac{F}{\mu}= \frac{300 N}{0.03}=10000 N$

In lab, your instructor generates a standing wave using a thin string of length L = 1.65 m fixed at both ends. You are told that

mars1129 [50]

Answer:

The maximum transverse speed of the bead is 0.4 m/s

Explanation:

As we know that the Amplitude of the travelling wave is

A = 3.65 mm

Now the speed of the travelling wave is

$v_x = 13.5 m/s$

now we know that distance of first antinode from one end is 27.5 cm

so length of the loop of the standing wave is given as

$\frac{\lambda}{4} = 27.5 cm$

$\lambda = 110 cm$

now we have

$N = \frac{2L}{\lambda}$

$N = \frac{2(1.65)}{1.10}$

$N = 3$

now we have

$R = 2A sin(kx)$

$R = 2(3.65) sin(\frac{2\pi}{1.10}x)$

$R = 7.3 sin(1.82 \pi x)$

now at x = 13.8 cm

$R = 7.3 sin(1.82 \pi (0.138))$

$R = 5.18 mm$

now we have

$f = \frac{v}{\lambda}$

$f = \frac{13.5}{1.1}$

$f = 12.27 Hz$

now maximum speed is given as

$v_y = R\omega$

$v_y = (5.18 \times 10^{-3})(2\pi(12.27))$

$v_y = 0.4 m/s$

In which direction does the electric field point at a position directly east of a positive charge

Field lines always point away from the positive side of a magnet. So i would say east but im not to sure

A block with mass m1 = 4.50 kg and a ball with mass m2 = 7.70 kg are connected by a light string that passes over a frictionless

Allisa [31]

$1.6a = \frac{g(m_2 + m_3 - \mu km_1)}{m_1 + m_2 + m_3} \\ \\ 1.6a(m_1 + m_2 + m_3) = g(m_2 + m_3 - \mu km_1) \\ \\ (1.6a + \mu kg)m_1 + (1.6a - g)m_2 = (g - 1.6a)m_3 \\ \\ m_3 = \frac{1.6a +\mu kg}{g - 1.6a} m_1 - m_2 \\ \\ m_3 = 22.57 kg$
