If the mass of the charge is very small (mass = 2.9×10^-25kg) so that its weight (weight in Newtons = mass in kg × 9.8 m/s2) is negligible compared to the electric force, what is the magnitude of its acceleration? Recall Newton's 2nd Law.
the magnitude of the electric force is 27.68×10^−17?
Write your result in terms of 10^9 m/s2. For example, if the result is 1.234 ×10^9 m/s2, just enter 1.234 (keep 3 decimal places).

You stand 17.5 m from a wall holding a tennis ball. You throw the tennis ball at the wall at an angle of 38.5 ∘ from the ground with an initial speed of 21.5 m / s. At what height above its initial position does the tennis ball hit the wall? Ignore any effects of air resistance.

4/ You are operating a fan with the characteristics shown in the figure below. The 25 kW fan currently operates continuously at full speed with the flow reduced to 90% of its rated capacity using downstream dampers. An evaluation reveals that there is inadequate fresh air being introduced into the building during the day, and too much is supplied at night. The flow rate needs to increase to 100% from 7am to 7pm, and can be reduced to 50% at night. What would be the CHANGE in energy costn per year if this change was done using either downstream dampers, or using a 97% efficient VSD ?
ηmot = 0.96 at the nominal speed
ηmot = 0.94 at 90% of the nominal speed
ηmot = 0.89 at 50% of the nominal speed
Electricity costs $0.15/kWh, no impact on demand charges

A bicycle racer sprints at the end of a race to clinch a victory. The racer has an initial velocity of 13.0 m/s and accelerates at the rate of 0.600 m/s2 for 7.00 s.
(a) What is his final velocity?
(b) The racer continues at this velocity to the finish line. If he
was 300 m from the finish line when he started to accelerate, how
much time did he save?
(c) One other racer was 5.00 m ahead when the winner started to
accelerate, but he was unable to accelerate and traveled at 13.3
m/s until the finish line. How far ahead of him (in meters and in
seconds) did the winner finish?
