1.95m/s
Explanation:
Please view the attached file for the detailed solution.
The following were the conversion factors used in order to express all quatities in SI units:
Two point charges lie on the x axis. A charge of + 2.30 pC is at the origin, and a charge of − 4.50 pC is at x=−11.0cm.
1 answer:
r₁ = distance of point A from charge q₁ = 0.13 m
r₂ = distance of point A from charge q₂ = 0.24 m
r₃ = distance of point A from charge q₃ = 0.13 m
Electric field by charge q₁ at A is given as
E₁ = k q₁ /r₁² = (9 x 10⁹) (2.30 x 10⁻¹²)/(0.13)² = 1.225 N/C towards right
Electric field by charge q₂ at A is given as
E₂ = k q₂ /r₂² = (9 x 10⁹) (4.50 x 10⁻¹²)/(0.24)² = 0.703 N/C towards left
Since the electric field in left direction is smaller, hence the electric field by the third charge must be in left direction
Electric field at A will be zero when
E₁ = E₂ + E₃
1.225 = 0.703 + E₃
E₃ = 0.522 N/C
Electric field by charge "q₃" is given as
E₃ = k q₃ /r₃²
0.522 = (9 x 10⁹) q₃/(0.13)²
q₃ = 0.980 x 10⁻¹² C = 0.980 pC

Answer:
False statement = There must be a non-zero net force acting on the object.
Explanation:
An object is moving at a constant speed along a straight line. If the speed is constant then its velocity must be constant. We know that the rate of change of velocity is called acceleration of the object i.e.
a = 0
⇒ The acceleration of the object is zero.
The product of force and acceleration gives the magnitude of force acting on the object i.e.
F = m a = 0
⇒ The net force acting on the object must be zero.
So, the option (a) is not true. This is because the force acting on the object is zero. First option contradicts the fact.
