Two particles are fixed to an x axis: particle 1 of charge -1.00 x 10-7 C is at the origin and particle 2 of charge +1.00 x 10-7

C is at x = 17.1 cm. Midway between the particles, what is the magnitude of the net electric field?

The electric field strength at any point from a charged particle is given by E = kq/r^2 and we can use this to calculate the field strength of the two fields individually at the midpoint. 

The field strength at midway (r = 0.171/2 = 0.0885 m) for particle 1 is E = (8.99x10^9)(-1* 10^-7)/(0.0885)^2 = -7.041 N/C and the field strength at midway for particle 2 is E = (8.99x10^9)(5.98* 10^-7)/(0.0935)^2 = <span>-7.041 N/C
</span>
Note the sign of the field for particle 1 is negative so this is attractive for a test charge whereas for particle 2 it is positive therefore their equal magnitudes will add to give the magnitude of the net field, 2*<span>7.041 N/C </span>= 14.082 N/C

Akimi4 [234]

Answer:

$3960

Step-by-step explanation:

12% of $4,500 is 540.

Subtracting the 12% means taking away $540 from $4,500, which gives you $3960

Eva estimate the 475 songs will fit on her MP3 player. The actual amount of songs that fit is 380. Find percent error
Shalnov [3]

Answer: 20%

Step-by-step explanation: Let’s use the variable ‘x’ as the percent. You need to make an equation and fill in the blanks. ___ is ____% of ____. So 380 is x% of 475. Now solve the problem. 380/475 = x/100, cross multiply. Now you have 475x = 380 * 100 or 475x = 38000. Now divide each side by 475. Now you have, x = 80%. Now you subtract. 100% - 80%. AND YOU GET 20%

A square patio has an area of 200 square feet. How long is each side of the patio to the nearest tenth?
Darya [45]
If patio is square it means that area of if is A=a^2 where a is one side
Now we can substitute A=200 and solve eq
a^2=200
a=\sqrt{200}
a=14.1421
Now we are rounding to the nearest tenths
a=14.1 because next number is 4 and is less then 5.
The result is 14.1
