What is the repulsive force between two pith balls that are 8.00 cm apart and have equal charges of – 30.0 nC?

Physics

Nastasia [14]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

F=1.26*10^{-3}N

Explanation:

Assuming the pith balls as point charges, we can calculate the repulsive force between them, using Coulomb's law:

F=\frac{kq_1q_2}{d^2}

We observe that the magnitude of the electric force is directly proportional to the product of the magnitude of both signed charges(q_1,q_2) and inversely proportional to the square of the distance(d) that separates them.

Replacing the given values, where k is the Coulomb constant:

F=\frac{8.99*10^{9}\frac{N\cdot m^2}{C^2}(-30*10^{-9}C)(-30*10^{-9}C)}{(8*10^{-2}m)^2}\\F=1.26*10^{-3}N

Answer:

1.6726\cdot 10^{-27} kg

Explanation:

The three main particles that make an atom are:

- Proton: its mass is 1.6726\cdot 10^{-27} kg, it carries an electric charge of +e (e=1.6\cdot 10^{-19}C), and it is located in the nucles of the atom

- Neutron: its mass is 1.6749 \cdot 10^{-27}kg, it carries no electric charge, and it is also located in the nucleus of the atom

- Electron: its mass is 9.1094 \cdot 10^{-31}kg, it carries an electric charge of -e (e=1.6\cdot 10^{-19}C), and it is located outside the nucleus

What did johannes kepler contribute to the study of planets
Nana76 [90]
Johannes Kepler was a main stargazer of the Scientific Revolution known for detailing the Laws of Planetary Motion. A stargazer, obviously, is a man who contemplates the sun, stars, planets and different parts of room. Kepler was German and lived in the vicinity of 1571 and 1630. 
Despite the fact that Kepler is best known for characterizing laws in regards to planetary movement, he made a few other striking commitments to science. He was the first to discover that refraction drives vision in the eye and that utilizing two eyes empowers profundity recognition.

Consider two identical objects of mass m = 0.250 kg and charge q = 4.00 μC. The first charge is held in place at the origin of a
Gnom [1K]

Answer:

a = 640 m/s²

Explanation:

From work-kinetic energy principles,

The net force acting on the second object is the gravitational force and the electric force due to the first object.

So, the gravitational force on the mass is F₁ = Gm₁m₂/r² since m₁ = m₂ = m, U = -Gm²/r²

Also, the electric force on the charge is F₂ = kq₁q₂/r² since q₁ = q₂ = q, U = kq²/r²

The net Force F = ma

So, -F₁ + F₂ = F     (F₁ is negative since it is an attractive force in the negative x -direction and F₂ is positive since it is a repulsive force in the positive x- direction)

-Gm²/r² + kq²/r² = ma

ma = -Gm²/r² + kq²/r²

a = (-Gm²/r² + kq²/r²)/m

a = (-G + kq²/m²)m/r²

Since m = 0.250 kg, q = 4.00 μC = 4.00 × 10⁻⁶ C, r = 3.00 cm = 3.00 × 10⁻² m, G = 6.67 × 10⁻¹¹ Nm²/kg², k = 9 × 10⁹ Nm²/C² and a = acceleration of second mass.

Substituting the variables into the equation, we have

a = (m/r²)(-G + k(q/m)²)]

a = (0.250 kg/{3.00 × 10⁻² m}²)(-6.67 × 10⁻¹¹ Nm²/kg² + 9 × 10⁹ Nm²/C²(4.00 × 10⁻⁶ C/0.250 kg)²)

a = (0.250 kg/9.00 × 10⁻⁴ m)(-6.67 × 10⁻¹¹ Nm²/kg² + 9 × 10⁹ Nm²/C²(16 × 10⁻⁶ C/kg)²)]

a = (0.250 kg/9.00 × 10⁻⁴ m)(-6.67 × 10⁻¹¹ Nm²/kg² + 9 × 10⁹ Nm²/C²(256 × 10⁻¹² C²/kg²)]

a = (0.250 kg/9.00 × 10⁻⁴ m)(-6.67 × 10⁻¹¹ Nm²/kg² + 2304 × 10⁻³ Nm²/kg²  ]

a = (0.250 kg/9.00 × 10⁻⁴ m)(2.304 Nm²/kg²)

a = 0.576 Nm²/kg /9.00 × 10⁻⁴ m²

a = 0.064 × 10⁴N/kg

a = 64 × 10 N/kg)

a = 640 m/s²

Does the galvanometer deflect to the left or the right when:________
igomit [66]

Complete question is;

Does the galvanometer deflect to the left or the right when

a) the magnet is being pushed in

b) the magnet is being pulled out

c) the magnet is being held steady?

Answer:

Option A - when the magnet is being pulled out

Explanation:

Faraday’s law of electromagnetic induction states that: “Voltage is induced in a circuit whenever relative motion exists between the conductor and the magnetic field, and the magnitude of the voltage will be proportional to the rate of change of the flux”.

Now, applying it to the question, When the magnet is moved towards the sensitive center of the galvanometer and then pulled out, the needle of the galvanometer will deflect away from its center position in one direction only but when it is held steady, the needle of the galvanometer will return back to zero.
