Answer:

The test charge will move to the left side after being released.

Explanation:

Given that,

Test charge = q

First charge = Q

Second charge = 2Q

Distance of point charge from first charge = r

Distance of point charge from second charge = 2r

Let the charge Q placed at left side and charge 2Q placed at right side.

We need to calculate the force due to first charge

Using formula of force

F=\dfrac{kq_{1}q}{r^2}

Put the value into the formula

F=\dfrac{kQq}{r^2}...(I)

We need to calculate the force due to second charge

Using formula of force

F'=\dfrac{k2Qq}{4r^2}...(I)

Divided equation (I) by equation (II)

\dfrac{F}{F'}=\dfrac{\dfrac{kQq}{r^2}}{\dfrac{k2Qq}{4r^2}}

\dfrac{F}{F'}=\dfrac{1}{2}

F=\dfrac{1}{2}F'

Hence,The test charge will move to the left side after being released.

Answer:

B. to the right

Explanation:

Given:

  • test charge +q
  • distance of the test charge from +Q, r
  • distance of test charge from +2Q, 2r

<u>Force on the test charge due to +Q:</u>

F_1=k.\frac{Q.q}{r^2}

<u>Force on the test charge due to +Q:</u>

F_2=k.\frac{2Q.q}{(2r)^2}

F_2=k.\frac{Q.q}{2r^2}

Since all the charges are positive here, so they will try to repel the test charge away. And the force due to charge +Q will be greater so initially the test charge will move rightwards away from the +Q charge.

Five lamp, each labbled "6V,3W" are operated at normal brightness. What is the total energy supplied to the lamps in five second
REY [17]

Answer:

E = 75 J

Explanation:

First, we will calculate the total power consumed by the five lamps:

Total\ Power = P = (5)(Power\ of\ one\ lamp)\\P = (5)(3\ W)\\P = 15\ W

Now, the energy supply can be calculated as follows:

E = Pt

where,

E = Energy = ?

t = time = 5 s

Therefore,

E = (15 W)(5 s)

<u>E = 75 J</u>

Alexis walked 1.5 km to her house in 0.5 hours. What is Alexis’ speed?
katrin2010 [14]

Answer:

Speed = 3 [km/h]

Explanation:

To solve this problem we must use the definition of speed which relates the distance traveled for a while.

Distance = 1.5 [km] = 1500 [m].

time = 0.5 [hr] = 1800 [s]

Speed = Distance/time

Speed = 1.5/0.5

Speed = 3 [km/h] or 1500/1800 = 0.8333[m/s]

I drop an egg from a certain distance and it takes 3.74 seconds to reach the ground. How high up was the egg?
OverLord2011 [107]

Answer:

68.5 meters

Explanation:

Given:

v₀ = 0 m/s

a = 9.8 m/s²

t = 3.74 s

Find: Δy

Δy = v₀ t + ½ at²

Δy = (0) (3.74) + ½ (9.8) (3.74)²

Δy = 68.5

The egg fell 68.5 meters.

A piston-cylinder device initially contains 0.08 m3 of nitrogen gas at 150 kPa and 200°C. The nitrogen is now expanded to a pres
Lemur [1.5K]

Answer:

V_2 = 0.125 m^3

Work done =  = 5 kJ

Explanation:

Given data:

volume of nitrogen v_1 = 0.08 m^3

P_1 = 150 kPa

T_1 = 200 degree celcius = 473 Kelvin

P_2 = 80 kPa

Polytropic exponent n = 1.4

\frac{T_2}{T_1} = [\frac{P_2}{P_1}]^{\frac{n-1}{n}

putting all value

\frac{T_2}{473} = [\frac{80}{150}]^{\frac{1.4-1}{1.4}

\frac{T_2} = 395.23 K = 122.08 DEGREE \ CELCIUS

polytropic process is given as

P_1 V_1^n = P_2 V_2^n

150\times 0.08^{1.4} = 80 \times V_2^{1.4}

V_2 = 0.125 m^3

work done = \frac{P_1 V_1 -P_2 V_2}{n-1}

= \frac{150 \times 0.8 - 80 \times 0.125}{1.4-1}

                  = 5 kJ
