We have three identical metallic spheres A, B, C. Initially sphere A is charged with charge Q, while B and C are neutral. First,
larisa [96]

Answer:

The final charges of each sphere are:   q_A = 3/8 Q , q_B = 3/8 Q ,               q_C = 3/4 Q

Explanation:

This problem asks for the final charge of each sphere, for this we must use that the charge is distributed evenly over a metal surface.

Let's start Sphere A makes contact with sphere B, whereby each one ends with half of the initial charge, at this point

                q_A = Q / 2

                q_B = Q / 2

Now sphere A touches sphere C, ending with half the charge

                q_A = ½ (Q / 2) = ¼ Q

                q_B = ¼ Q

Now the sphere A that has Q / 4 of the initial charge is put in contact with the sphere B that has Q / 2 of the initial charge, the total charge is the sum of the charge

                  q = Q / 4 + Q / 2 = ¾ Q

This is the charge distributed between the two spheres, sphere A is 3/8 Q and sphere B is 3/8 Q

                  q_A = 3/8 Q

                  q_B = 3/8 Q

The final charges of each sphere are:

                q_A = 3/8 Q

                q_B = 3/8 Q

                q_C = 3/4 Q

Answer:

The resultant velocity is <u>169.71 km/h at angle of 45° measured clockwise with the x-axis</u> or the east-west line.

Explanation:

Considering west direction along negative x-axis and north direction along  positive y-axis

Given:

The car travels at a speed of 120 km/h in the west direction.

The car then travels at the same speed in the north direction.

Now, considering the given directions, the velocities are given as:

Velocity in west direction is, \overrightarrow{v_1}=-120\ \vec{i}

Velocity in north direction is, \overrightarrow{v_2}=120\ \vec{j}

Now, since v_1\ and\ v_2 are perpendicular to each other, their resultant magnitude is given as:

|\overrightarrow{v_{res}}|=\sqrt{|\overrightarrow{v_1}|^2+|\overrightarrow{v_2}|^2}

Plug in the given values and solve for the magnitude of the resultant.This gives,

|\overrightarrow{v_{res}}|=\sqrt{(120)^2+(120)^2}\\\\|\overrightarrow{v_{res}}|=120\sqrt{2} = 169.71\ km/h

Let the angle made by the resultant be 'x' degree with the east-west line or the x-axis.

So, the direction is given as:

x=\tan^{-1}(\frac{|v_2|}{|v_1|})\\\\x=\tan^{-1}(\frac{120}{-120})=\tan^{-1}(-1)=-45\ deg(clockwise\ angle\ with\ the\ x-axis)

Therefore, the resultant velocity is 169.71 km/h at angle of 45° measured clockwise with the x-axis or the east-west line.

a moving cart hits a spring, traveling at 5.0 m/s at the time of contact. at this instant the cart is motionless by how much is
viva [34]
This state of motionlessness occurs because all of the kinetic energy in the car is absorbed by the spring in the form of elastic potential energy. The mathematical representation is:
1/2 mv² = 1/2 kx²
25m = kx², where m is the mass of the cart, k is the spring constant and x is the spring's extension.
