    Can Electric Forces Repel and Attract Unlike Gravitational Forces?

    Homework Statement I have a series of about a dozen questions, my son is taking a course that was outlined by his school " as a great way to get ready for Grade 12" it is mostly multiple choice so if someone could help us choose the right answer with a little bit of an explanation. He has done...

    Orbiting Earth Aboard a Space Shuttle: Velocity vs Speed

    there was none it was just a true or false question how bout these 2: Consider a trip from your home to your school and back home again. The magnitude of your displacement is equivalent to your distance travelled. The velocity of a passenger with respect to a train moving east would be less if...

    Orbiting Earth Aboard a Space Shuttle: Velocity vs Speed

    OOOOOOO thank you see i get confused with that now this one is tricky to: The velocity of a passenger with respect to a train moving east would be less if the passenger is walking west at a particular speed than it would be if the passenger is walking east at the same speed. I got this to be...

    Solving a Quick Physics Problem: Finding Speed, Deceleration, and Distance

    Homework Statement A rock is pushed from rest across a sheet of ice, accelerating at 2.0 m/s2 over a distance of 20 cm. The rock then slides at a constant speed for 15.0 s until it reaches a rough section that causes the rock to stop in 5.5 s. (Assume two significant digits.) 1. What...

    Can Acceleration and Motion Principles Solve These Physics Problems?

    for 6 i got -4.4 i used v2=v1 +a(change in time) v2+25+(-9.8)(3.0) i got -4.4 Therefore it has hit the ground?

    Can Acceleration and Motion Principles Solve These Physics Problems?

    for question 5 i got 107.2 i don't know which way is right is it 1) 1.1 × 102 km/h 2) 107.2 km/h 4 ) 1 × 102 km/h 5) 1.072 × 102 km/h
