By holding a positive charge and there are positive charges of equal magnitude 1 m to your north and 1 m to your east. Therefore, the direction of the force on the charge you are holding will be to the southwest.

Let I hold the charge , q at the centre of given co-ordinate system and two positive charge of equal magnitude Q are placed 1 m to my North and 1 m to my South .

now, both the charge are same nature e.g., positive . Let my charge is also positive (well, you can assume negative too , I am considering positive because it makes me easy to solve) then, both charge repel to my charge.

charge Q placed on east is repelling my charge q toward west . similarly charge Q placed on North is repelling my charge q toward south.

Now , use vector for solve it.

vector F_{net} = vector Fe + vector Fn,

⇒ |F_{net}| = \sqrt{}  F^{2} _{e } + F^{2}_n

⇒ Fe = Fs = KqQ/(1m)² = KqQ

⇒ F_{net} = √{Fe² + Fs²} = √{(kqQ)²+(KqQ)²}

⇒ F_{net}= √2KqQ

Hence, net force act on q {my charge } is √2KqQ and the direction of force is S - W (southwest )direction.

A 2.13-kg object on a frictionless horizontal track is attached to the end of a horizontal spring whose force constant is 5.00 N
ANTONII [103]

Answer:

17.54N in -x direction.

Explanation:

Amplitude (A) = 3.54m

Force constant (k) = 5N/m

Mass (m) = 2.13kg

Angular frequency ω = √(k/m)

ω = √(5/2.13)

ω = 1.53 rad/s

The force acting on the object F(t) = ?

F(t) = -mAω²cos(ωt)

F(t) = -2.13 * 3.54 * (1.53)² * cos (1.53 * 3.50)

F(t) = -17.65 * cos (5.355)

F(t) = -17.57N

The force is 17.57 in -x direction
