Two point charges of +2.0 μC and -6.0 μC are located on the x-axis at x = -1.0 cm and x 12) = +2.0 cm respectively. Where should

a third charge of +3.0-μC be placed on the +x-axis so that the potential at the origin is equal to zero?

Answer:

 x = 0.006 m

Explanation:

The potential at one point is given by

          V = k ∑ q_{i} / r_{i}

remember that the potential is to scale, let's apply to our case

          V = k (q₁ / x₁ + q₂ / x₂ + q₃ / x)

in this case they indicate that the potential is zero

          0 = k (2 10⁻⁶ / (- 1 10⁻²) + (-6 10⁻⁶) / 2 10⁻² + ​​3 10⁻⁶ / x)

         3 / x = + 2 / 10⁻² + ​​3 / 10⁻²

         3 / x = 500

          x = 3/500

          x = 0.006 m

A marble is dropped from rest and falls for 2.3 seconds. Find its final velocity.
juin [17]

Answer:

23 m/s downward

__________________________________________________________

<em>Taking the downward direction as positive</em>

<u>We are given:</u>

Initial velocity of the marble (u) = 0 m/s

Time interval (t) = 2.3 seconds

Final velocity (v) = x m/s

<u>Solving for the Final velocity:</u>

<u>Acceleration of the Marble:</u>

We know that gravity will make the marble accelerate at a constant acceleration of 10 m/s

<u>Final velocity:</u>

v = u + at                                              [First equation of motion]

x = 0 + (10)(2.3)                                    [replacing the given values]

x = 23 m/s

Hence, after 2.3 seconds, the marble will move at a velocity of 23 m/s in the downward direction

The astronomer who discovered the dwarf planet Eris suggests there might be another object far beyond the Kupier belt. If this P
PolarNik [594]

These objects would be classified as extreme trans Neptunian object (ETNO).

Explanation:

ETNO’s are the objects lying beyond the planet Neptune and orbiting the Sun. They follow a highly eccentric path which is tilted. ETNO has been grouped into three major according to their respective perihelia.  

Within this region (beyond Neptune’s orbit), a hypothetical planet has been discovered. It was discovered following its gravitational effect on the other objects of Kuiper Belt (region beyond the orbit of the Neptune- the last planet of our Solar system)

The Planet is assumed to be around 2 times the Earth’s size and around 10 times heavier than Earth.

The tub of a washer goes into its spin-dry cycle, starting from rest and reaching an angular speed of 6.0 rev/s in 11.0 s. At th
sleet_krkn [62]

Answer

given,

ω₁ = 0 rev/s

ω₂ = 6 rev/s

t = 11 s

Using equation of rotational motion

The angular acceleration is

  ωf - ωi = α t

  11 α = 6 - 0

      = 0.545 rev/s²

The angular displacement

  θ₁= ωi t + (1/2) α t²

  θ₁= 0 + (1/2) (0.545)(11)^2

  θ₁= 33 rev

case 2

ω₁ = 6 rev/s

ω₂ = 0 rev/s

t = 14 s

Using equation of rotational motion

The angular acceleration is

  ωf - ωi = α t

  14 α = 0 - 6

        = - 0.428 rev/s²

The angular displacement

  θ₂= ωi t + (1/2) α t²

  θ₂= 6 x 14 + (1/2) (-0.428)(14)^2

  θ₂= 42 rev

total revolution in 25 s is equal to

θ =  θ₁ +  θ₂

θ =  33 + 42

θ = 75 rev
