Three charges, Q1, Q2, and Q3 are located in a straight line. The position of Q2 is 0.301 m to the right of Q1. Q3 is located 0.
Alexxx [7]

Answer and Explanation: A charge exerts a force over another charge even if they are very far apart. This force is called <u>Electrostatic</u> <u>Force</u>.

If the two charges have the same sign, e.g. both aare positive, the force between them is opposite. If they have opposite sign, the force is towards each other. In other words, for electrostatic force, equal charges repel and different charges attract.

So,

1. If Q2 and Q3 have opposite signs, it is TRUE force in Q2 will go the left;

2. If the 2 are negative, they have the same sign, so it's FALSE force is to the right;

Sentences 3 and 4 are also TRUE due to the reasons described above;

5. If the charges have opposite signs, it means force is towards each other, or, to the right, so the sentence is TRUE;

1. Force is directly proportional to charges in Coulomb [C] and inversely proportional to distance squared in [m]:

F=\frac{k.q.Q}{r^{2}}

where k is a constant that equals 9 x 10⁹ N.m²/C²

Calculating force between 1 and 2:

F_{12}=\frac{9.10^{9}(1.9.10^{-6})(2.84.10^{-6})}{(0.301)^{2}}

F_{12}=536.02.10^{-3} N

Force between 2 and 3:

F_{23}=\frac{9.10^{9}(2.84.10^{-6})(3.03.10^{-6})}{(0.169)^{2}}

F_{23}=2711.63.10^{-3} N

Total force is the net force. Since Q2 is negative and the others are positive, force of 2 related to 1 is to left and related to 3 is to the right. Therefore, total force is the difference between those two forces:

F_{T}=2711.63.10^{-3}-536.02.10^{-3}

F_{T}=2175.61.10^{-3} N

The total force on Q2 is 2175.61 x 10⁻³ N

2. For net force to be 0, F_{13}=F_{23}. Suppose distance from 1 to 3 is x, then from 2 to 3 is x-0.301

Calculating:

\frac{k(1.90.10^{-6})(3.03.10^{-6})}{x^{2}}=\frac{k(2.84.10^{-6})(3.03.10^{-6})}{(x-0.301)^{2}}

\frac{5.757.10^{-12}}{x^{2}} =\frac{8.6052.10^{-12}}{x^{2}-0.602x+0.090601}

\frac{5.757.10^{-12}}{8.6052.10^{-12}}=\frac{x^{2}}{x^{2}-0.602x+0.090601}

x^{2}=0.67x^{2}-0.40x+0.061

0.33x^{2}+0.40x-0.061=0

roots = 0.14 or -1.35

Solving quadratic equation gives 2 roots, but one of the roots is negative. As distance is a measure that cannot be negative, the solution is x = 0.14.

The distance of Q3 relative to Q1 is 0.14 m

Consider a well-insulated rigid container with two chambers separated by a membrane. The total volume is 5.0 cubic meters. The f
mamaluj [8]

Answer:

The Entropy generated by the steam = 2.821 kJ/K

Explanation:

Total volume of container = 5m³

Heat transfer does not exist between system and surrounding, dQ = 0

At the first chamber, temperature of water at saturated liquid is 300°C

From the steam table:

Specific enthalpy of saturated liquid at 300°C , h_{f} = 1344.8 kJ/kg

Specific internal energy of saturated liquid at 300°C, U_{f1} =  1332.7 kJ/kg

For closed system, the first law of thermodynamics state that:

dQ = dw + dU..................(1)

work done for free expansion, dw =0

0 = 0 + dU

dU = 0 , i.e. U₁ = U₂

At the second chamber,

The final pressure, P₂ = 50 kPa

From the steam table, at P₂ = 50 kPa,  U_{f2} = 340.49 kJ/kg

(U_{fg} )_{2} =  2142.7 kJ/kg

Let the dryness fraction at the second chamber = x

U_{2} = U_{f2} + U_{fg2}

U_{2} = 340.49 + x2140.7Since U₁ = U₂

1332.7 = 340.49 + x2140.7

Dryness fraction, x = 0.463

From steam table, the specific volume is, u_{f2} = 0.00103 m^{3} /kg\\

u_{2} = u_{f2} + xu_{fg2}

u_{2} = 0.00103 + 0.463(3.2393)\\u_{2} = 1.5 m^{3} /kg\\

u_{2} = \frac{v_{2} }{m_{2} }

V₂ = 5 m³

1.5 = 5/m₂

m₂ = 3.33 kg

At 300°C S_{1} = S_{f} = 3.2548 kJ/kg-k\\

S_{2} = S_{f2} + xS_{fg2}

From the steam table,

S_{f2} = 1.0912 kJ/kg-k\\S_{fg2} = 6.5019 kJ/kg-k\\S_{2} = 1.0912 + 0.463(6.5019)\\S_{2} = 4.102 kJ/kg-k

Therefore the entropy generated will be :

Entropy = mass* (S₂ - S₁)

Entropy = 3.33* (4.102 - 3.2548)

Entropy = 2.821 kJ/K

Suppose that two objects attract each other with a gravitational force of 50N. If the mass
vagabundo [1.1K]

Answer:

112.5 N

Explanation:

50 = GMm/r^2

Let F be the new force of attraction

F/50 = ( G(3M)(3m)/(2r)^2 ) / (GMm/r^2)

[Elimiating G,M,m,r]

F = 112.5 N

A river flows due south with a speed of 2.0 m/s. You steer a motorboat across the river; your velocity relative to the water is
neonofarm [45]

Answer:

a) 25.5°(south of east)

b) 119 s

c) 238 m

Explanation:

solution:

we have river speed v_{r}=2 m/s

velocity of motorboat relative to water is v_{m/r}=4.2 m/s

so speed will be:

a) v_{m}=v_{r}+v_{m/r}

solving graphically

v_{m}=\sqrt{v^2_{r}+v^2_{m/r}}

     =4.7 m/s

Ф=tan^{-1} (\frac{v_{r}}{v_{m/r}} )

  =25.5°(south of east)

b) time to cross the river: t=\frac{w}{v_{m/r}}=\frac{500}{4.2}=119 s

c) d=v_{r}t=(2)(119)=238 m
