Answer:

q_3=-2.83\cdot 10^{-6}\ c

Explanation:

<u>Electric Field</u>

The total electric field is the sum of all the individual electric fields produced by each charge. Please refer to the image below. The charges q1 and q2 produce the electric fields shown in the point (0,3). Since both charges are equal in magnitude and sign and are at the same distance from the point, the horizontal component of their electric fields cancel each other, only the vertical component remains and it's directed upwards.

The third charge q3 must be negative, so the total electric field is zero. Let's first compute the value of the angle \theta by analyzing the distances in the right triangle formed by the charges q1, q2, and the point (0,3)

\displaystyle tan\theta=\frac{3}{3}=1

It follows that \theta=45^o

The distance from q1 (or q2) to the point (0,3) is computed by

d^2=3^2+3^2=18\ m^2

Let's compute the magnitude of the electric of q1 or q2:

\displaystyle E=\frac{Kq_1}{d^2}=\frac{Kq_2}{d^2}

\displaystyle E=\frac{9\cdot 10^9\times 4\cdot  10^{-6}}{18}

E=2000\ N/c

The vertical component of both fields is given by

Ey=2000cos45^o=1414.21

The total field produced by q1 and q2 is twice that quantity

E_{yt}=2828.42\ N/c

That should be the value of E3 to make the total field vanish (equal to 0)

\displaystyle E_3=\frac{Kq_3}{d_3^2}=2828.42

Solving for q3

\displaystyle q_3=\frac{2828.42\cdot d_3^2}{K}=\frac{2828.42\cdot 3^2}{9\cdot 10^9}

\boxed{ q_3=-2.83\cdot 10^{-6}\ c}

We had already established the sign of q3 must be negative

Valentin [98]

Answer:

v = 8.09   m/s

Explanation:

For this exercise we use that the work done by the friction force plus the potential energy equals the change in the body's energy.

Let's calculate the energy

       

starting point. Higher

         Em₀ = U = m gh

final point. To go down the slope

         Em_f = K = ½ m v²

The work of the friction force is

         W = fr L cos 180

to find the friction force let's use Newton's second law

Axis y

        N - W_y = 0

        N = W_y

X axis

        Wₓ - fr = ma

let's use trigonometry

        sin  θ = y / L

         sin θ = 11/110 = 0.1

         θ = sin⁻¹  0.1

          θ = 5.74º

         sin 5.74 = Wₓ / W

         cos 5.74 = W_y / W

         Wₓ = W sin 5.74

         W_y = W cos 5.74

the formula for the friction force is

         fr = μ N

         fr = μ W cos θ

Work is friction force is

         W_fr = - μ W L cos θ  

Let's use the relationship of work with energy

        W + ΔU = ΔK

         -μ mg L cos 5.74 + (mgh - 0) = 0  - ½ m v²

        v² = - 2 μ g L cos 5.74 +2 (gh)

        v² = 2gh - 2 μ gL cos 5.74

let's calculate

        v² = 2 9.8 11 - 2 0.07 9.8 110 cos 5.74

        v² = 215.6 -150.16

        v = √65.44

        v = 8.09   m/s

5.54 Two kilograms of air within a piston–cylinder assembly WP execute a Carnot power cycle with maximum and minimum temper atur
Step2247 [10]

Answer:

A) 60%

B) p2 = 1237.2 kPa

   v2 = 0.348 m^3

C) w1-2 = w3-4 = 1615.5 kJ

   Q2-3 = 60 kJ

Explanation:

A) calculate thermal efficiency

  Л = 1 - \frac{Tl}{Th}  

where Tl = 300 k

            Th = 750 k

hence thermal efficiency ( Л ) = [1 - ( 300 / 750 )] * 100 = 60%

B) calculate the pressure and volume at the beginning of the isothermal expansion

calculate pressure ( P2 )  :

= P3v3 = mRT3  ----- (1)

v3 = 0.4m , mR = 2* 0.287, T3 = 750

hence P3 = 1076.25

next equation to determine P2

Qex = p3v3 ln( p2/p3 )

60 = 1076.25 * 0.4 ln(p2/p3)

hence ; P2 = 1237.2 kpa

calculate volume ( V2 )

p2v2 = p3v3

v2 = p3v3 / p2

   = (1076.25 * 0.4 ) /  1237.2  

  = 0.348 m^3

C) calculate the work and heat transfer for each four processes

work :

W1-2 = mCv( T2 - T1 )

        = 2*0.718 ( 750 - 300 ) = 1615.5 kJ

W3-4 = 1615.5 kJ

heat transfer

Q2-3 = W2-3 = 60KJ

Q3-4 = 0

PLEASE HELP! I'LL GIVE BRAINLEST​
melisa1 [442]

Answer:

Weight = 8.162 Newton.

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Mass = 2.2 kg

Acceleration due to gravity = 3.71 N/kg

To find the weight of the textbook;

Weight = mass * acceleration due to gravity

Weight = 2.2 * 3.71

Weight = 8.162 N

Therefore, the weight of the science textbook in mars is 8.162 Newton.
