Two small spherical insulators separated by 2.5 cm, which is much greater than either of their diameters. Both carry positive ch

arge, one +60.0 microCoulombs and the other +6.66 microCoulombs. A third positive charge remains at rest between the two spheres and along the line joining them. What is the position of this charged sphere?

Answer:

1.875 cm from 60 microcoulomb charge.

Explanation:

Let the third charge be Q. Let it be put at x distance from 60 micro coulomb charge for balance.

Force on this charge due to first charge

= \frac{k\times60\times10^{-6}Q}{x^2}

Force on this charge due to second charge

= \frac{k\times6.66\times10^{-6}Q}{(2.5-x)^2}

Since both these forces are equal \frac{k\times60\times10^{-6}Q}{x^2}=\frac{k\times6.66\times10^{-6}Q}{(2.5-x)^2}

\frac{60}{6.66} = \frac{x^2}{(2.5-x)^2}\frac{x}{2.5 -x} = \frac{3}{1}

x = 1.875

1.875 cm from 60 microcoulomb charge.

A car is traveling with a constant speed of 30.0 m/s when the driver suddenly applies the brakes, causing the car to slow down w
Black_prince [1.1K]

Answer:

a = - 3.75 m/s²

negative sign indicates deceleration here.

Explanation:

In order to find the constant deceleration of the car, as it stops, we will use the 3rd equation of motion. The 3rd equation of motion is as follows:

2as = Vf² - Vi²

a = (Vf² - Vi²)/2s

where,

a = deceleration of the car = ?

Vf = Final Velocity = 0 m/s (Since, the car finally stops)

Vi = Initial Velocity = 30 m/s

s = distance covered by the car = 120 m

Therefore,

a = [(0 m/s)² - (30 m/s)²]/(2)(120 m)

<u>a = - 3.75 m/s²</u>

<u>negative sign indicates deceleration here.</u>

identify the action reaction forces in each picture the first picture is done for you write your answer on a separate sheet of p
xxMikexx [17]

Newton's Third Law of Motion states that for every action there must exist an equal but opposite reaction.

This ultimately implies that, Newton's Third Law of Motion is a law based on action-reaction force pairs.

In this exercise, you're required to identify the action-reaction forces in the attached picture.

Under condition A, a boy is leaning against a wall;

  • The force being exerted by the boy on the wall is a force of action.
  • The force being exerted by the wall on the boy is a force of reaction.

Under condition B, a boy is jumping off a diving board.

  • The force being exerted by the feet of the boy on the diving board is a force of action.
  • The force being exerted by the diving board on the feet of the boy is a force of reaction.

Under condition C, a nail is being hammered into the wall.

  • The force being exerted by the hammer on the nail is a force of action.
  • The force being exerted by the nail on the hammer is a force of reaction.

Under condition D, a man is walking on a ground (floor).

  • The force being exerted by the foot of the man on the ground (floor) is a force of action.
  • The force being exerted by the ground (floor) on the foot of the man is a force of reaction.

Under condition E, a boy is holding a ball;

  • The force being exerted by the hand of the boy on the ball is a force of action.
  • The force being exerted by the ball on the hand of the boy is a force of reaction.

Bad White [126]

Answer:

Devni is correct

Explanation:

The relationship between pressure and density of a liquid is directly proportional i.e. the amount of pressure exerted on a liquid is directly proportional to its density and this is because when pressure is exerted the volume is compressed hence there will be a proportional increase in density as well.

hence pressure is as important as density in liquids
