A thundercloud has an electric charge of 48.8 C near the top of the cloud and –41.7 C near the bottom of the cloud. The magnitud

IceJOKER [234]

Answer: 1.51 km

Explanation:

Coulomb's Law: The electrostatic force between two charge particles Q: and Q2 is directly proportional to product of magnitude of charges and inversely proportional to square of separation distance between them.

Or, $\vec{F}=k \frac{Q_{1} Q_{2}}{r^{2}}$

Where Q1 and Q2 are magnitude of two charges and r is distance between them:

Given:

Q1 = Charge near top of cloud = 48.8 C

Q2 = Charge near the bottom of cloud = -41.7 C

Force between charge at top and bottom of cloud (i.e. between Q: and Q2) (F) = 7.98 x 10^6N

k = 8.99 x 109Nm^2/C^2

So,

$\begin{aligned}&7.98 \times 10^{6}=\left(8.99 \times 10^{9} \mathrm{Nm}^{2} / \mathrm{C}^{2}\right) \frac{48.8 \mathrm{C} \times 41.7 \mathrm{C}}{\mathrm{r}^{2}} \\&r=\sqrt{\frac{1.8294 \times 10^{13}}{7.98 \times 10^{6}}}=1.514 \times 10^{3} \mathrm{~m}=1.51 \mathrm{~km}\end{aligned}$

Therefore, the separation between the two charges (r) = 1.51 km

Uma massa de 500 Kg desloca-se com velocidade 58 km por hora. Calcule o módulo de sua quantidade por movimento

Simora [160]

The momentum of the object is 8050 kg m/s

Explanation:

The momentum of an object is defined as

$p=mv$

where

p is the momentum

m is the mass

v is the velocity of the object

For the object in this problem, we have

m = 500 kg is its mass

v = 58 km/h is its velocity

Converting the velocity into m/s,

$v=58 \frac{km}{h}\cdot \frac{1000 m/km}{3600 s/h}=16.1 m/s$

Therefore now we can find the momentum of the object:

$p=(500)(16.1)=8050 kg m/s$

A wire carries a steady current of 2.20

alina1380 [7]

By definition we know that the force is the vector product of the vector of the current by the length with the magnetic field vector. The current in this case goes in a positive "Y" direction. If we assume that the magnetic field goes in the positive "K" direction, then the result will be in the positive "X" direction. Attached solution.
