Three charges 1.5*10-6, 3*10-6, -3*10-6 are placed at three vertices of an equilateral triangle of side 30cm. Find the net force
gulaghasi [49]

Answer:

F = 0N

Explanation:

The force between two charges is given by

F=k\frac{q_1q_2}{r^2}

where r is the distance between the charges and K is the Coulomb's constant

(k=8-89*10^9Nm^2/C^2)

The force in the first charge is only the sum of the forces due to the other charges. Hence we have

F_T=F_1+F_2=k\frac{q_2q_1}{r^2}+k\frac{q_3q_1}{r^2}

F_T=(8.89*10^9\frac{Nm^2}{C^2})\frac{(3*10^{-6}C)(1.5*10^{-6}C)}{(0.3m)^2}+(8.89*10^9\frac{Nm^2}{C^2})\frac{(-3*10^{-6}C)(1.5*10^{-6}C)}{(0.3m)^2}\\\\F_T=0.445N-0.445N=0N

Ft=0N

Hope this helps!!

A cylindrical tungsten filament 16.0 cm long with a diameter of 1.00 mm is to be used in a machine for which the temperature wil
KonstantinChe [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

Resistance of the tungsten wire

R = resistivity x length / cross sectional area

= \frac{5.25\times10^{-8}\times16\times10^{-2}}{3.14\times(.5\times10^{-3})^2}

= 107 x 10⁻⁴ ohm

Resistance at 120 degree can be obtained from the following formula

R_t = R_0( 1 + \alpha\times t )

R_t = 107\times10^{-4}( 1 + .0045\times 100)

= 155.15 x 10⁻⁴ ohm

= 160 x 10⁻⁴ ohm ( rounding off to two syg fig )

current = 12.5

potential diff = 12.5 x 155.15 x 10⁻⁴ V

=  0 .1939 V

= .19 V

required electric field = potential diff / length of wire

= .1939 / 16 x 10⁻²

= 1.2 N / C

liubo4ka [24]

Answer:

a)  t = 11.407 s, b)   x = 175.66 m,  v = c)         v = 30.80 m / s

Explanation:

a) This is a kinematics exercise, let's write the equation of each vehicle

car

          x = x₀ + v₀ t + ½ a t²

Let's fix our reference system at the point where the car is, indicate that the car stops from rest vo = 0

          x₀ = v₀ = 0

we substitute

          x = ½ a t²

truck

         x₂= v₀ t

         v₀ = 15.4 m / s

at the point where they are, their positions are equal

       ½ a t² = vo t

        t = 2 vo / a

calculate us

        t = 2 15.4 / 2.70

        t = 11.407 s

b) the distance to reach it

        x = ½ to t²

        x = ½ 2.70 11.407²

        x = 175.66 m

c)  the speed of the car is

       v = vo + a t

       vo = 0

       v = at

       v = 2.70 11.407

       v = 30.80 m / s

Explain what a coulomb is and be able to change from electron to coulomb and vice versa
torisob [31]

Answer:

Cuolomb is SI unit of charge

1 e=1.6022E-19 C

1 C = 6.2415E+18 e

Explanation:

Coulomb(C) is the SI unit for measuring electric charge and is given as the product of current and time. To convert Cuolomb to electron, we multiply each cuolomb of charge by 1 C = 6.2415E+18 e while to convert electron into charge, we multiply the electrons by 1e=1.6022E-19 C
