Three point charges are arranged on a line. Charge q3 = 5 nC and is at the origin. Charge q2 = - 3 nC and is at x = 4 cm. Charge

Taya2010 [7]

Answer:

q₁ = + 1.25 nC

Explanation:

Theory of electrical forces

Because the particle q₃ is close to two other electrically charged particles, it will experience two electrical forces and the solution of the problem is of a vector nature.

Known data

q₃=5 nC

q₂=- 3 nC

d₁₃= 2 cm

d₂₃ = 4 cm

Graphic attached

The directions of the individual forces exerted by q1 and q₂ on q₃ are shown in the attached figure.

For the net force on q3 to be zero F₁₃ and F₂₃ must have the same magnitude and opposite direction, So, the charge q₁ must be positive(q₁+).

The force (F₁₃) of q₁ on q₃ is repulsive because the charges have equal signs ,then. F₁₃ is directed to the left (-x).

The force (F₂₃) of q₂ on q₃ is attractive because the charges have opposite signs. F₂₃ is directed to the right (+x)

Calculation of q1

F₁₃ = F₂₃

$\frac{k*q_{1}*q_3 }{(d_{13})^{2} } = \frac{k*q_{2}*q_3 }{(d_{23})^{2} }$

We divide by (k * q3) on both sides of the equation

$\frac{q_{1} }{(d_{13})^{2} } = \frac{q_{2} }{(d_{23})^{2} }$

$q_{1} = \frac{q_{2}*(d_{13})^{2} }{(d_{23} )^{2} }$

$q_{1} = \frac{5*(2)^{2} }{(4 )^{2} }$

q₁ = + 1.25 nC

Explain why does the bowling ball decelerate as it travels along the lane

frutty [35]

The main cause of this is Friction. The more oil that is laid down, the less friction there is between the ball and the lane surface. The less friction, the harder it is for the bowler to send the ball in a curved path imparted by the spin that the bowler puts on the ball at the instant of release.

The persistence of vision for normal eye is

attashe74 [19]

Answer:

The answer is 1/16

Explanation:

1. Persistence of vision refers to the optical illusion that occurs when visual perception of an object does not cease for some time after the rays of light proceeding from it have ceased to enter the eye. 2. The persistence of vision for normal eye is 1/16 if a second.

An object is placed at 0 on a number line. It moves 3 units to the right, then 4 units to the left, and then 6 units to the righ

Verdich [7]

The correct answer is: +5

Explanation:

An object is placed at 0; it means:

Initial position of the object = 0.

Now it moves to 3 units to right, so keeping the standard cartesian coordinate system in mind (in right right x-axis is positive and left x-axis is right), the new position of the object will be +3.

Object now moves 4 units to the left, it means +3 - 4 = -1; object is at the position -1.

Object then moves 6 units to the right, therefore,

Final position of the object = -1 + 6 = +5.

Displacement = Final position - Initial position

Displacement = +5 - 0 = +5
