<span>It is convection currents that carry thermal energy from warmer places to cooler places. The process operates upon planetary scales, as suggested by the question, but also operates on more local scales such as in your own house. For example, if there is a heater within a single room within your house, convection will drive heat energy to adjacent colder rooms. </span>

A positively charged particle of mass 7.2 x 10-8 kg is traveling due east with a speed of 88 m/s and enters a 0.6-T uniform magn
Marianna [84]

Answer:

q = 8.57 10⁻⁵ mC

Explanation:

For this exercise let's use Newton's second law

         F = ma

where force is magnetic force

        F = q v x B

the bold are vectors, if we write the module of this expression we have

         F = qv B sin θ

as the particle moves perpendicular to the field, the angle is θ= 90º

        F = q vB

the acceleration of the particle is centripetal

        a = v² / r

we substitute

        qvB = m v² / r

         qBr = m v

          q =\frac{m\  v}{B\  r}

The exercise indicates the time it takes in the route that is carried out with constant speed, therefore we can use

          v = d / t

the distance is ¼ of the circle,

          d = \frac{1}{4} \  2\pi  r

           d =\frac{\pi }{2r}

we substitute

           v =  \frac{\pi  r}{2t}

           r = \frac{2 \ t  \ v}{\pi }

           

let's calculate

           r =\frac{2 \ 2.2  \ 10^{-3} \ 88}{\pi } 2 2.2 10-3 88 /πpi

           r = 123.25 m

         

let's substitute the values

           q = \frac{ 7.2 \ 10^{-8} \ 88}{ 0.6 \ 123.25}7.2 10-8 88 / 0.6 123.25

            q = 8.57 10⁻⁸ C

Let's reduce to mC

           q = 8.57 10⁻⁸ C (10³ mC / 1C)

           q = 8.57 10⁻⁵ mC

What is the net force exerted by these two charges on a third charge q3 = 49.5 nC placed between q1 and q2 at x3 = -1.170 m ? Yo
insens350 [35]

Full Question

Consider two point charges located on the x axis: one charge, Q1 = -12.0 nC , is located at x1 = -1.705m ; the second charge, Q2 = 36.5 nC, is at the origin (x=0.0000).

What is the net force exerted by these two charges on a third charge q3 = 49.5 nC placed between q1 and q2 at x3 = -1.170 m ? Your answer may be positive or negative, depending on the direction of the force.

Answer:

6.79E6 N

Explanation:

Given

Q1 is negative and to the left of Q3 the force will be to the left

Q2 is positive and to the right of Q3 the the force will also be to the left

Net Force is calculated as:

Using Coulomb's law

Coulomb's law: F = kqQ / r²

the constant k = 8.99 x 10^9 N m2 / C2

F = -kQ1*Q3/(r1)² -kQ2*Q3/(r2)²)

F = -kQ3(Q1/(r1)² + Q2/(r2)²)

Where

Q1 = -12nC = -12 * 10^-9C

Q2 = 36.5nC = 36.5 * 10^-9C

Q3 = 49.5nC = 49.5 * 10^-9C

x1 = -1.705m

x2 = x = 0

x3 = -1.170m

r1 = x3 - x1

r1 = -1.170 - -1.705

r1 = -1.170 + 1.705

r1 = 0.535

r1² = 0.286225

r2 = x3

r2 = -1.170

r2² = -1.170²

r2² = 1.3689

So,

F = (-8.99 * 10^9)(49.5 *10^-9) [-12 * 10^-9/0.286225 + 36.5 * 10^-9/1.3689]

F = -445.005 (−4.192505895711E−8 + 2.6663744612462E−8)

F = -445.005 * −1.5261314344648E−8

F = -(8.99 * 10^9) * (49.5 * 10^-9) * [ (-12 * 10^-9) /(-1.770 - -1.705)² + (36.5 * 10^-9)/(-1.170)²]

F = -445.005( −0.000002813572941777538)

F = 0.00000679136118994008324

F = 6.79E6 N
