A +13.4 nC charge is located at (0,9.4) cm and a -4.23 nC charge is located (4.99, 0) cm. Where would a -14.23 nC charge need to

be located in order that the electric field at the origin be zero? Express your answer, in cm, as the magnitude of the distance of q3 from the origin.

In order to solve this problem, we will first need to find the electric field at the origin without the 3rd charge

E1 = (9x10^9)(13.4x10^-9)/(9.4x10^-2)^2 = 13648.7 V/m towards the negative y-axis

E2 = (9x10^9)(4.23x10^-9)/(4.99x10^-2)^2 = 15289.1 V/m towards the positive x-axis

The red arrow shows the direction of which the electric field points.

To make the electric field at the origin 0, we must find a location where q3 = the magnitude of q1 and q2

Etotal = sqrt(E1+E2) = 20494.97 V/m

E3 = 20494.97 = (9x10^9)(14.23x10^-9)/(d)^2

d = 0.079 m = 7.9 cm

How do you reconcile the law of falling bodies (that all objects fall to earth at the same acceleration despite their weight) wi
ASHA 777 [7]

From the gravity acceleration theorem due to a celestial body or planet, we have that the Force is given as

F = \frac {GMm} {r ^ 2}

Where,

F = Strength

G = Universal acceleration constant

M = Mass of the planet

m = body mass

r = Distance between centers of gravity

The acceleration by gravity would be given under the relationship

g = \frac {F} {m}

g = \frac {GM} {r ^ 2}

Here the acceleration is independent of the mass of the body m. This is because the force itself depended on the mass of the object.

On the other hand, the acceleration of Newton's second law states that

a = \frac {F} {m}

Where the acceleration is inversely proportional to the mass but the Force does not depend explicitly on the mass of the object (Like the other case) and therefore the term of the mass must not necessarily be canceled but instead, considered.

a racing car undergoes a uniform acceleration of 4.00m/s2. if the net force causing the acceleration is 3.00 times 10^3 N, what
yKpoI14uk [10]

Answer: 750Kg

Explanation:

Recall that force is the product of the mass M, of an object moving at a uniform acceleration.

i.e Force = Mass x Acceleration

In this case, Mass = ?

Force = 3.00 x 10^3 N = (3.00 x 1000N)

= 3000N

Uniform acceleration = 4.00m/s^2

Force = Mass x Acceleration

3000N = Mass x 4.00m/s^2

Mass = (3000N/4.00m/s^2)

Mass = 750Kg (The SI unit of mass is kilograms)

Thus, the mass of the car is 750Kg

KATRIN_1 [288]

Answer:

Explanation:

The cannonball goes a horizontal  distance of 275 m . It travels a vertical distance of 100 m

Time taken to cover vertical distance =  t ,

Initial velocity u = 0

distance s = 100 m

acceleration a = 9.8 m /s²

s = ut + 1/2 g t²

100 = .5 x 9.8 x t²

t = 4.51 s

During this time it travels horizontally also uniformly so

horizontal velocity Vx = horizontal displacement / time

= 275 / 4.51 = 60.97 m /s

Vertical velocity Vy

Vy = u + gt

= 0 + 9.8 x 4.51

= 44.2 m /s

Resultant velocity

V = √ ( 44.2² + 60.97² )

= √ ( 1953.64 + 3717.34 )

= 75.3 m /s

Angle with horizontal Ф

TanФ = Vy / Vx

= 44.2 / 60.97

= .725

Ф = 36⁰ .
