The total electric force that these charges exert on a third point charge is 11.9 N and the direction is towards positive y axis.

<h3>Magnitude of the electric force between the charges</h3>

The force between the first charge and the third charge is calculated as follows;

F₁₃ = kq₁q₃/r₁₃²

F₁₃ = (9 x 10⁹ x 3 x 10⁻⁶ x 4.5 x 10⁻⁶) / (0.1)²

<u>note:</u><em> distance between charge 3.0 μC and Q = 4.5 μC  = 0.4 m - 0.3 m = 0.1 m</em>

F₁₃ = 12.15 N

The force between the second charge and the third charge is calculated as follows;

F₂₃ = kq₂q₃/r₂₃²

F₂₃ = (9 x 10⁹ x -3 x 10⁻⁶ x 4.5 x 10⁻⁶) / (0.7)²

<u>note:</u><em> distance between charge -3.0 μC and Q = 4.5 μC  = 0.4 m - (-0.3 m) = 0.7 m</em>

<em />

F₂₃ = -0.248 N

<h3>Net force between the charges</h3>

F(net) = F₁₃ + F₂₃

F(net) = 12.15 - 0.248

F(net) = 11.9 N

Thus, the total electric force that these charges exert on a third point charge is 11.9 N and the direction is towards positive y axis.

A thin rod of length 0.75 m and mass 0.42 kg is suspended freely from one end. It is pulled to one side and then allowed to swin
Goshia [24]

Answer:

(A) 0.63 J  

(B) 0.15 m

Explanation:

length (L) = 0.75 m

mass (m) =0.42 kg

angular speed (ω) = 4 rad/s

To solve the questions (a) and (b) we first need to calculate the rotational inertia of the rod (I)

I = Ic + mh^{2}  

Ic is the rotational inertia of the rod about an axis passing trough its centre of mass and parallel to the rotational axis

h is the horizontal distance between the center of mass and the rotational axis of the rod

I = (\frac{1}{12})(mL^{2} ) + m([tex]\frac{L}{2})^{2}[/tex]

I = (\frac{1}{12})(0.42 x 0.75^{2} ) + ( 0.42 x ([tex]\frac{0.75}{2})^{2}[/tex])

I = 0.07875 kg.m^{2}

(A) rods kinetic energy = 0.5Iω^{2}

  = 0.5 x 0.07875 x 4^{2} = 0.63 J   0.15 m

(B) from the conservation of energy

   initial kinetic energy + initial potential energy = final kinetic energy + final potential energy

   Ki + Ui = Kf + Uf

   at the maximum height velocity = 0 therefore final kinetic energy = 0

   Ki + Ui = Uf

   Ki = Uf - Ui

 Ki =  mg(H-h)

where (H-h) = rise in the center of mass

     0.63 = 0.42 x 9.8 x (H-h)

   (H-h) = 0.15 m

Suppose the U.S. national debt is about $14 trillion. If payments were made at the rate of $3,500 per second, how many years wou
andreyandreev [35.5K]

Answer:

It will take 126.84 years to pay off the debt

Explanation:

Total debt = $14,000,000,000,000.00

Paid $3,500 per second

Number of seconds to pay off the debt will be:

14 ×10^12 /3500

Number of seconds = 4× 10^9 seconds

Converting seconds to year:

I second = 3.171 ×10^-8 calendar year

Therefore, number of years it will take to pay off $14 Trillion =( 4 ×10^9 ) × ( 3.171 × 10^-8)

Number of years = 126.84 years
