A) 16.1 N

The force of electricity acting between the corks can be calculated using Coulomb's law:

$F=k\frac{q_1 q_2}{r^2}$

where

k represents Coulomb's constant

$q_1 = 6.0 \mu C=6.0 \cdot 10^{-6} C$ denotes the charge magnitude on the first cork

$q_2 = 4.3 \mu C = 4.3 \cdot 10^{-6}C$ indicates the charge magnitude on the second cork

r = 0.12 m is the distance separating the corks

By inserting the values into the formula, we arrive at

$F=(9\cdot 10^9 N m^2 C^{-2} )\frac{(6.0\cdot 10^{-6}C)(4.3\cdot 10^{-6} C)}{(0.12 m)^2}=16.1 N$

B) Attractive

- when both are similarly charged (e.g. positive-positive or negative-negative), the force is repulsive

- when charges are of opposite signs (e.g. positive-negative), the resulting force is attractive

Cork 1 holds a positive charge

Cork 2 possesses a negative charge

C) $2.69\cdot 10^{13}$

The total charge of the negative cork is

$q_2 = -4.3 \cdot 10^{-6}C$

$e=-1.6\cdot 10^{-19}C$

$q_2 = Ne$

$N=\frac{q_2}{e}=\frac{-4.3\cdot 10^{-6} C}{-1.6\cdot 10^{-19} C}=2.69\cdot 10^{13}$

D) $3.75\cdot 10^{13}$

The overall charge on the positive cork is

$q_1 = +6.0\cdot 10^{-6}C$

$e=-1.6\cdot 10^{-19}C$

$q_1 = -Ne$

$N=-\frac{q_1}{e}=-\frac{+6.0\cdot 10^{-6} C}{-1.6\cdot 10^{-19} C}=3.75\cdot 10^{13}$

A 10-turn conducting loop with a radius of 3.0 cm spins at 60 revolutions per second in a magnetic field of 0.50T. The maximum e

kicyunya [2264]

Answer:

Maximum emf = 5.32 V

Explanation:

Provided data includes:

Number of turns, N = 10

Radius of loop, r = 3 cm = 0.03 m

It made 60 revolutions each second

Magnetic field, B = 0.5 T

We are tasked to determine the maximum emf produced in the loop, which is founded on Faraday's law. The induced emf can be calculated by:

$\epsilon=\dfrac{d(NBA\cos\theta)}{dt}\\\\\epsilon=NBA\dfrac{d(\cos\theta)}{dt}\\\\\epsilon=NBA\omega \sin\omega t\\\\\epsilon=NB\pi r^2\omega \sin\omega t$

For the maximum emf, $\sin\omega t=1$

Therefore,

$\epsilon=NB\pi r^2\omega \\\\\epsilon=NB\pi r^2\times 2\pi f\\\\\epsilon=10\times 0.5\times \pi (0.03)^2\times 2\pi \times 60\\\\\epsilon=5.32\ V$

Hence, the maximum emf generated in the loop is 5.32 V.

The plates of a parallel-plate capacitor are 2.50 mm apart, and each carries a charge of magnitude 80.0 nC. The plates are in va

serg [2593]

Answer:

10000 V

0.00225988700565 m²

$8\times 10^{-12}\ F$

Explanation:

E = Electric field = $4\times 10^6\ V/m$

d = Distance = 2.5 mm

Q = Charge = 80 nC

$\epsilon_0$ = Permittivity of free space = $8.85\times 10^{-12}\ F/m$

The potential difference is calculated as

$V=Ed\\\Rightarrow V=4\times 10^6\times 2.5\times 10^{-3}\\\Rightarrow V=10000\ V$

The potential difference across the plates amounts to 10000 V

Area is determined by

$A=\dfrac{Q}{\epsilon_0E}\\\Rightarrow A=\dfrac{80\times 10^{-9}}{8.85\times 10^{-12}\times 4\times 10^6}\\\Rightarrow A=0.00225988700565\ m^2$

The area of each plate measures 0.00225988700565 m²

Capacitance is determined by

$C=\dfrac{\epsilon_0A}{d}\\\Rightarrow C=\dfrac{8.85\times 10^{-12}\times 0.00225988700565}{2.5\times 10^{-3}}\\\Rightarrow C=8\times 10^{-12}\ F$

The capacitance is $8\times 10^{-12}\ F$

Lien is pushing a box across a table. She used a force of 100 N to get the box moving. Which force did she overcome to get the b

Yuliya22 [2438]

I will analyze each option. My assumption is that the answer is C.

Option A states that gravity acts downward on the box but does not affect its horizontal acceleration, provided there is no friction.

Option B indicates that the normal force goes upward on the box, which also does not influence horizontal acceleration.

In option C, the reaction force discussed relates to Newton’s 3rd law. This reaction force acts on Lien rather than the box itself, meaning she must overcome this force to set the box in motion. I believe this is the correct choice.

Option D refers to the push force applied by her; she wouldn’t have to counteract her own force regarding the box, but must address the reaction force as I mentioned in option C.

A proton has mass 1.7 ✕ 10−27 kg. what is the magnitude of the impulse required to increase its speed from 0.991c to 0.994c?

Maru [2360]

Impulse can be equated to the force associated with momentum change, expressed as F*t = mv - mu
Given the mass and speed values are provided, apply the formula from the right-hand side:
mass, m = 1.7 x 10^27 kg
initial velocity, u = 0.991 x (3 x 10^8) = 2.973 x 10^8
final velocity, v = 0.994 x (3 x 10^8) = 2.982 x 10^8
Consequently, the calculation is:
Impulse = mv - mu
= [(1.7 x 10^27) x (2.982 x 10^8)] - [(1.7 x 10^27) x (2.973 x 10^8)]
= (5.0694 x 10^35) - (5.0694 x 10^35)
= 0
