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

Answer:

Since binary is only 1 and 0, you can use a flashlight to display something similar to Morse code (see explanation below)

Explanation:

In binary, 1 means "on" and 0 means "off". A way you can use visible light is through turning on and off a flashlight. If the flashlight is turned on, it would represent a 1. If the flashlight is turned off, it would represent a 0. To make the message easier and more accurately understood for the receiver make sure to flash the lights in a consistent pattern (ex. each flash lasts no longer than half a second, one second between each digit, etc.)

For example, let's say you're trying to send the message "11001"

  on     on    off     off     on

0       1       2       3       4       5      <em>Numbers represent seconds</em>

As you can see above the message starts at 0 seconds. Between 0 and 1 seconds the flashlight is turned on once. Between 1 and 2 seconds the flashlight is turned on again, Between 2 and 3 seconds as well as 3 and 4 seconds the flashlight is not turned on at all. And finally between 4 and 5 seconds the flashlight is turned on.

Unlike acceleration and velocity, speed does not need to specify
frosja888 [35]

Unlike acceleration and velocity, speed does not need to specify the direction of motion. Speed is a scalar quality.

Through which of these media do sound waves travel most slowly? A.iron. B.Wood. C.Water. D.Cold Air
EleoNora [17]
The answer should be D) Cold air because even though its true sound can travel through all types of matter, air which is a gas, can travel but it travels SLOWLY while sound travels quickly in SOLIDS.

A 0.111 kg hockey puck moving at 55 m/s is caught by a 80 kg goalie at rest. With what speed does the goalie slide on the (frict
Andrews [41]

Answer: 0.076 m/s

Explanation:

Momentum is conserved:

m v = (m + M) V

(0.111 kg) (55 m/s) = (0.111 kg + 80. kg) V

V = 0.076 m/s

After catching the puck, the goalie slides at 0.076 m/s.
