5 0

(a) The location of a point where the electric field is zero is at the center of the triangle which is equal to ¹/₆√3a.

(b) The magnitude and direction of the electric field at the top corner due to the two charges at the base is  1.732 kq/a².

<h3>Position where the electric field is zero</h3>

The electric field is zero at the center of the equilateral triangle whose magnitude is equal to √3a/6.

<h3>Electric field at top corner due to two charges at the base</h3>

E = E₁ + E₂

where;

  • E₁ is electric field at the left base corner
  • E₂ is electric field at the right base corner

E = kq/a²[(cos 60i + sin 60j) + (-cos 60i + sin 60j)]

E = kq/a²[2(sin 60j)] = 1.732 kq/a²

Thus, the location of a point where the electric field is zero is at the center of the triangle which is equal to ¹/₆√3a.

The magnitude and direction of the electric field at the top corner due to the two charges at the base is  1.732 kq/a².

A 1.3-kg model airplane flies in a circular path on the end of a 23-m line. The plane makes
storchak [24]

(a) The plane makes 4.3 revolutions per minute, so it makes a single revolution in

(1 min) / (4.3 rev) ≈ 0.2326 min ≈ 13.95 s ≈ 14 s

(b) The plane completes 1 revolution in about 14 s, so that in this time it travels a distance equal to the circumference of the path:

(2<em>π</em> (23 m)) / (14 s) ≈ 10.3568 m/s ≈ 10 m/s

(c) The plane accelerates toward the center of the path with magnitude

<em>a</em> = (10 m/s)² / (23 m) ≈ 4.6636 m/s² ≈ 4.7 m/s²

(d) By Newton's second law, the tension in the line is

<em>F</em> = (1.3 kg) (4.7 m/s²) ≈ 6.0627 N ≈ 6.1 N

Answer it pls!!!!!!!!!!!
Archy [21]

Answer:

Fractional error = 0.17

Percent error = 17%

F = 112 ± 19 N

Explanation:

Plug in the values to find the force:

F = (3.5 kg) (20 m/s)² / (12.5 m) = 112 N

Find the fractional error:

ΔF/F = Δm/m + 2Δv/v + Δr/r

ΔF/F = 0.1/3.5 + 2(1/20) + 0.5/12.5

ΔF/F = 0.17

Multiply by 100% to find the percent error:

ΔF/F × 100% = 17%

Solve for the absolute error:

ΔF = 0.17 × 112 N = 19 N

Therefore, the force is:

F = 112 ± 19 N
