(7)Figure 4 shows three charges: Q₁, Q₂ and Q3 . Determine the net force (Fnet) acting on Q3. (Hint: Draw a free body diagram of

the forces to assist you with the calculation.)
(8)Figure 5 shows three charges arranged in a right angled formation.

(8.1)Draw a free body diagram of the forces that act on the -0,03 uC charge.

(8.2)Calculate each force that acts on the -0,03 uC charge.

(8.3) Find the magnitude and direction of the net force that acts on the 0,03 μC charge with the aid of a diagram and by calculations.

Remember Coulomb's law: the magnitude of the electric force F between two stationary charges q₁ and q₂ over a distance r is

F = \dfrac{kq_1q_2}{r^2}

where k ≈ 8,98 × 10⁹ kg•m³/(s²•C²) is Coulomb's constant.

8.1. The diagram is simple, since only two forces are involved. The particle at Q₂ feels a force to the left due to the particle at Q₁ and a downward force due to the particle at Q₃.

8.2. First convert everything to base SI units:

0,02 µC = 0,02 × 10⁻⁶ C = 2 × 10⁻⁸ C

0,03 µC = 3 × 10⁻⁸ C

0,04 µC = 4 × 10⁻⁸ C

300 mm = 300 × 10⁻³ m = 0,3 m

600 mm = 0,6 m

Force due to Q₁ :

F_{Q_2/Q_1} = \dfrac{k (6 \times 10^{-16} \,\mathrm C)}{(0,3 \, \mathrm m)^2} \approx \boxed{6,0 \times 10^{-5} \,\mathrm N} = 0,06 \,\mathrm{mN}

Force due to Q₃ :

F_{Q_2/Q_3} = \dfrac{k (12 \times 10^{-16} \,\mathrm C)}{(0,6 \, \mathrm m)^2} \approx \boxed{3,0 \times 10^{-5} \,\mathrm N} = 0,03 \,\mathrm{mN}

8.3. The net force on the particle at Q₂ is the vector

\vec F = F_{Q_2/Q_1} \, \vec\imath + F_{Q_2/Q_3} \,\vec\jmath = \left(-0,06\,\vec\imath - 0,03\,\vec\jmath\right) \,\mathrm{mN}

Its magnitude is

\|\vec F\| = \sqrt{\left(-0,06\,\mathrm{mN}\right)^2 + \left(-0,03\,\mathrm{mN}\right)^2} \approx 0,07 \,\mathrm{mN} = \boxed{7,0 \times 10^{-5} \,\mathrm N}

and makes an angle θ with the positive horizontal axis (pointing to the right) such that

\tan(\theta) = \dfrac{-0,03}{-0,06} \implies \theta = \tan^{-1}\left(\dfrac12\right) - 180^\circ \approx \boxed{-153^\circ}

where we subtract 180° because \vec F terminates in the third quadrant, but the inverse tangent function can only return angles between -90° and 90°. We use the fact that tan(x) has a period of 180° to get the angle that ends in the right quadrant.

Maru [420]

Answer:

-5.1 kg m/s

Explanation:

Impulse is the change in momentum.

Change in momentum= final momentum - initial momentum=mv_{2} +mv_{1}

Plugging in the values= -0.15*24 - (0.15*10) (The motion towards the pitcher is negative as the initial motion is considered to be positive)

Impulse=-5.1 kg m/s (-ve means that it is the impulse towards the pitcher)
