Answer:

The magnitude and direction of electric field midway between these two charges is 10.8\times10^{5}\ N/C along AB.

Explanation:

Given that,

First charge q_{1}= 20\mu C

second charge q_{2}= 8\mu C

Distance = 20 cm

We need to calculate the electric field

For first charge,

Using formula of electric field

E_{1}= \dfrac{kq_{1}}{r^2}

Put the valueinto the formula

E_{1}=\dfrac{9\times10^{9}\times20\times10^{-6}}{10\times10^{-2}}

E_{1}=18\times10^{5}\ N/C

Direction of electric field along AB

We need to calculate the electric field

For second charge,

Using formula of electric field

E_{2}= \dfrac{kq_{2}}{r^2}

Put the valueinto the formula

E_{2}=\dfrac{9\times10^{9}\times8\times10^{-6}}{10\times10^{-2}}

E_{2}=7.2\times10^{5}\ N/C

Direction of electric field along AO

We need to calculate the net electric field at midpoint

E_{net}=E_{1}-E_{2}

E_{net}=(18-7.2)\times10^{5}\ N/C

E_{net}=10.8\times10^{5}\ N/C

Direction of net electric field along AB

Hence, The magnitude and direction of electric field midway between these two charges is 10.8\times10^{5}\ N/C along AB.

Scientists have designed solar cells to trap solar energy and convert it to _____ energy.
lapo4ka [179]
Scientists have designed solar cells to trap solar energy and convert it to D electrical energy. Its D because converting something has to do with recharging something and electronics have to charge. I hope I helped.

The floor of a railroad flatcar is loaded with loose crates having a coefficient of static friction of 0.320 with the floor. If
mart [117]

Answer:  29.50 m

Explanation: In order to calculate the higher accelation to stop a train  without moving the crates inside the wagon which is traveling at constat speed we have to use the second Newton law so that:

f=μ*N the friction force is equal to coefficient of static friction  multiply the normal force (m*g).

f=m.a=μ*N= m*a= μ*m*g= m*a

then

a=μ*g=0.32*9.8m/s^2= 3.14 m/s^2

With this value we can determine the short distance to stop the train

as follows:

x= vo*t- (a/2)* t^2

Vf=0= vo-a*t then t=vo/a

Finally; x=vo*vo/a-a/2*(vo/a)^2=vo^2/2a= (49*1000/3600)^2/(2*3.14)=29.50 m
