Questions

• Given the following, what is the net force on the particle? What is the acceleration of the particle? How long will it take to strike one of the plates?
• The acceleration of a particle traveling along a straight line is #a = (8-2s) m/s^s#, where #s# is in meters. How do you determine the position of the particle when the velocity is maximum?
• How do you find the magnitude of the acceleration of the particle?
• If a particle moves according to the equation #s = t3 – 6t2 + 9t – 5#, how do you find the acceleration when the velocity is #0# (#s# is in cm).?
• A region of the galaxy where new stars are forming-contains a very tenuous gas with 100 #a t oms ##/cm^3#. This gas is heated to #7500 K# by ultraviolet radiation from nearby stars. What is the Gas Pressure in ATM?
• A nebula's a region of the galaxy where new stars are forming contains a very tenuous gas with 128 #a t o m s##/cm^3#. This gas is heated to #7459 K# by ultraviolet radiation from nearby stars. What is the gas pressure?
