The net electric force acting on a positive test charge at the origin is determined as ¹/₉(kq₁q₂).

<h3>Net electric force on the charges</h3>

The net electric force on the charges is calculated as follows;

F = kq₁q₂/r²

where;

k is coulomb's constant
q₁ and q₂ are the charges
r is the distance between the charges

<h3>Distance between the charges</h3>

$|r| = \sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+ (y_2-y_1)^2} \\\\|r| = \sqrt{(-4--4)^2+ (0--3)^2} \\\\|r| = \sqrt{(0)^2 + (3)^2} \\\\|r| = 3 \ units$

$F_{net} = \frac{kq_1q_2}{3^2} \\\\F_{net} = \frac{1}{9} (kq_1q_2) , \ N$

Thus, the net electric force acting on a positive test charge at the origin is determined as ¹/₉(kq₁q₂).

The ____ is a line drawn at a right angle to a barrier. a. normal c. node b. ray d. wave front

Natalija [7]

Answer:

a. normal

Explanation:

In the field of physics the normal is a line drawn at a right angle to a barrier. In other words the normal line is the line that is drawn perpendicular (right angle, 90 degrees) to the reflective surface of a mirror, or the particular boundary in which refraction occurs at the point of incidence of a light ray. This can be seen in the picture attached below.

A 97.0 kg ice hockey player hits a 0.150 kg puck, giving the puck a velocity of 48.0 m/s. If both are initially at rest and if t

OverLord2011 [107]

Answer:

s₁ = 0.022 m

Explanation:

From the law of conservation of momentum:

$m_1u_1 + m_2u_2 = m_1v_1+m_2v_2$

where,

m₁ = mass of hockey player = 97 kg

m₂ = mass of puck = 0.15 kg

u₁ = u₂ = initial velocities of puck and player = 0 m/s

v₁ = velocity of player after collision = ?

v₂ = velocity of puck after hitting = 48 m/s

Therefore,

$(97\ kg)(0\ m/s)+(0.15\ kg)(0\ m/s)=(97\ kg)(v_1)+(0.15\ kg)(48\ m/s)\\\\v_1 = -\frac{(0.15\ kg)(48\ m/s)}{97\ kg} \\v_1 = - 0.074 m/s$

negative sign here shows the opposite direction.

Now, we calculate the time taken by puck to move 14.5 m:

$s_2 =v_2t\\\\t = \frac{s_2}{v_2} = \frac{14.5\ m}{48\ m/s} \\\\t = 0.3\ s$

Now, the distance covered by the player in this time will be:

$s_1 = v_1t\\s_1 = (0.074\ m/s)(0.3\ s)$

<u>s₁ = 0.022 m</u>

An object is formed by attaching a uniform, thin rod with a mass of mr = 6.9 kg and length L = 4.88 m to a uniform sphere with m

Bumek [7]

Answer:

a) total moment of inertia is 1359.05 kg m^2

b) angular acceleratio is 0.854rad/sec^2

Explanation:

Given data:

m1=6.9 kg

L=4.88 m

m2=34.5 kg

R=1.22 m

we klnow that moment of inertia for rod is given as

J1=(1/12) ×m×L^2

$J1 = (1/12) \times 6.9 \times 4.88^2 = 13.693 kg m^2$

moment of inertia for sphere is given as

J1=(2/5) ×m×r^2

$J1 = (2/5) \times 34.5 \times 1.22^2 = 20.539 kg m^2$

As object rotates around free end of rod then for sphere the axis around what it rotates is at a distance of d2=L+R

For rod distance is d1=0.5*L

By Steiner theorem

for the rod we get $J_1'=J_1 + m_1\times d_1^2$

$J_1' = 13.693 + 2.44^2\times 6.9 = 54.77 kg m^2$

for the sphere we get $J_2' = J_2 + m_2\times d_2^2$

$J2' = 20.539 + 34.5\times 6.1^2 = 1304.28 kg^m2$

And the total moment of inertia for the first case is

$J_{t1} = J_1'+J_2' = 54.77 + 1304.28 = 1359.05kg.m^2$

b) F=476 N

The torque for system is given as

$M = F\times d\times sin(a)$

where a is angle between Force and distance d

and where d represent distance from rotating axis.

In this case a = 90 degree

$M = F\times L/2$

M=476*2.44 = 1161.44 Nm

The acceleration is calculated as

$a_1 = \frac{M}{J_{t1}}$

$= \frac{1161.44}{1359.05}$

= 0.854 rad/sec^2

You, a 70 kg person, leap from a 10 m tall building and land feet first on a trampoline. The center of the trampoline where you

Anon25 [30]

Answer:

1373.4 N/m

Explanation:

Hooke's law states that the extension of a spring and force are related by the expression, F=kx where k is spring constant, x is extension of spring and F is the applied force. Making k the subject of the formula then

$k=\frac {F}{x}$

Also, F=gm hence the above formula is modified as

$k=\frac {gm}{x}$

Taking g as 9.81 m/s2 , x as 0.5 m and m as 70 kg then

$k=\frac {9.81\times 70 kg}{0.5m}=1373.4 N/m$
