Answer:
1. Largest force: C; smallest force: B; 2. ratio = 9:1
Explanation:
The formula for the force exerted between two charges is
where K is the Coulomb constant.
q₁ and q₂ are also identical and constant, so Kq₁q₂ is also constant.
For simplicity, let's combine Kq₁q₂ into a single constant, k.
Then, we can write
1. Net force on each particle
Let's
- Call the distance between adjacent charges d.
- Remember that like charges repel and unlike charges attract.
Define forces exerted to the right as positive and those to the left as negative.
(a) Force on A
(b) Force on B
(C) Force on C
(d) Force on D
(e) Relative net forces
In comparing net forces, we are interested in their magnitude, not their direction (sign), so we use their absolute values.
2. Ratio of largest force to smallest
Answer
given,
I is the loudness of sound
I = 10 Log₁₀ r
r is relative intensity
at when relative intensity is 10⁶
I = 60 dB
how much louder when 100 people would be talking together
I = 10 Log₁₀ r
I = 10 Log₁₀ (10⁶ x 100)
I = 10 Log₁₀ (10⁸)
I = 80 dB
hence, the intensity will be increased by (80 dB -60 dB) 20 dB when 100 people start talking together.
The electric potential at point A in the electric field= 0.099 x 10 ⁻¹v
<u>Explanation</u>:
Given data,
charge = 5.5 x 10¹² C
k =9.00 x 10⁹
The electric potential V of a point charge can found by,
V= kQ / r
Assuming, r=5.00×10⁻² m
V= 5.5 x 10⁻¹²C x 9.00 x 10⁹ / 5.00×10⁻² m
V= 49.5 x 10⁻³/ 5.00×10⁻²
Electric potential V= 0.099 x 10⁻¹v
Answer:
- The procedure is: solve the quadratic equation for
.
Explanation:
This question assumes uniformly accelerated motion, for which the distance d a particle travels in time t is given by the general equation:
That is a quadratic equation, where the independent variable is the time .
Thus, the procedure that will find the time t at which the distance value is known to be D is to solve the quadratic equation for .
To solve it you start by changing the equation to the general form of the quadratic equations, rearranging the terms:
Some times that equation may be solved by factoring, and always it can be solved by using the quadratic formula:
Where:
That may have two solutions. Some times one of the solution makes no physical sense (for example time cannot be negative) but others the two solutions are valid.
