Answer:

86605.08 N

Explanation:

The equation to calculate the force is:

Force = mass * acceleration

The force and the acceleration does not have the same direction in this case, so we need to decompose the force into its horizontal component, which is the force that will generate the horizontal acceleration:

Force_x = Force * cos(30)

Then, we have that:

Force_x = mass * acceleration

Force * cos(30) = 25000 * 3

Force * 0.866 = 75000

Force = 75000 / 0.866 = 86605.08 N

A train slows from 60m/s to 20m/s in 50s
Dovator [93]

Answer:

a = -4/5 m/s^2

Explanation:

Acceleration = change in velocity / time

change in velocity = final velocity - initial velocity

a = (20 m/s - 60 m/s) / 50 s

a = -40 m/s / 50 s

a = -4/5 m/s^2

hope this helps! <3

A positive charge +q1 is located to the left of a negative charge -q2. On a line passing through the two charges, there are two
AfilCa [17]

Answer:

please the answer below

Explanation:

(a) If we assume that our origin of coordinates is at the position of charge q1, we have that the potential in both points is

V_1=k\frac{q_1}{r-1.0}-k\frac{q_2}{1.0}=0\\\\V_2=k\frac{q_1}{r+5.2}-k\frac{q_2}{5.2}=0\\\\

k=8.89*10^9

For both cases we have

k\frac{q_1}{r-1.0}=k\frac{q_2}{1.0}\\\\q_1(1.0)=q_2(r-1.0)\\\\r=\frac{q_1+q_2}{q_2}\\\\k\frac{q_1}{r+5.2}=k\frac{q_2}{5.2}\\\\q_1(5.2)=q_2(r+5.2)\\\\r=\frac{5.2q_1-5.2q_2}{q_2}

(b) by replacing this values of r in the expression for V we obtain

k\frac{q_1}{\frac{5.2(q_1-q_2)}{q_2}+5.2}=k\frac{q_2}{5.2}\\\\\frac{q_1}{q_2}=\frac{(q_1-q_2)}{q_2}-1.0=\frac{q_1-q_2-q_2}{q_2}=\frac{q_1-2q_2}{q_2}

hope this helps!!
