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 crane exerts a net force of 900 N upward on a 750-kilogram car as the crane starts to lift the car from the deck of a cargo sh
melisa1 [442]

Answer: 1.2m/s^2

Explanation: the force exerted on the car is 900N upwards

The mass of the car is 750kg

According to Newton's third law acceleration is proportional to force

F = ma

900 = 750a

a = 900/750

a = 1.2m/s^2

A satellite orbiting the moon very near the surface has a period of110 min. What is free-fall acceleration on the surface of the
Norma-Jean [14]

Answer:

1.54 m/s²

Explanation:

The free-fall acceleration is calculated as

g = w²r

Where w is the angular velocity of the satellite and r is the radius of the moon.

The angular velocity can be calculated as

w=\frac{2\pi}{T}

Where T is the period, so

T = 110 min = 110 x 60 s = 6600 s

Then,

w=\frac{2\pi}{6600\text{ s}}=9.52\times10^{-4}\text{ rad/s}

Finally, the radius of the moon is r = 1.7 x 10⁶ m, so the free-fall acceleration is

\begin{gathered} g=w^2r \\ g=(9.52\times10^{-4})^2(1.7\times10^6) \\ g=1.54\text{ m/s}^2 \end{gathered}

Therefore, the answer is 1.54 m/s²
