Same problem, Different Values hi, i have a similar problem, but my problem is: The magnitude of each of the charges in the figure is 8.00 10-12 C. The lengths of the sides of the rectangle are 3.00 cm and 4.00 cm. Find the magnitude of the electric field at the center of the rectangle in...

i mis-typed. it is supposed to be 3.35*10^2

It is not given. It does not give initial velocity either.

It is clearly a kinematics problem, so I am guessing it has to do with acceleration and velocity. All the variables are given in terms of acceleration and the final answer has to be in terms of velocity, so I assume the starting equation will be: vf = vi + a*t. The only thing is that any of the...

Homework Statement A drag racer, starting from rest, speeds up for 402 m with an acceleration of +23.0 m/s2. A parachute then opens, slowing the car down with an acceleration of -6.70 m/s2. How fast is the racer moving 3.35 102 m after the parachute opens? Homework Equations ? The...

i basically have the same example, but the values given to me are different. the problem i have is: A hot-air balloon is rising upward with a constant speed of 2.20 m/s. When the balloon is 3.50 m above the ground, the balloonist accidentally drops a compass over the side of the balloon. How...

hi, i am having trouble with figuring out this problem. A drag racer, starting from rest, speeds up for 402 m with an acceleration of +23.0 m/s2. A parachute then opens, slowing the car down with an acceleration of -6.70 m/s2. How fast is the racer moving 3.35 102 m after the parachute...

hi, i saw the thread and wanted to know how we would actually go about answering the questions it asks. I figured out how to solve the problem but I can't figure out how many seconds it would take for the compass to drop. please help. thanks, Z
