Answer:

Explanation:

Given that,

Q1=-2.72μC

At the position r1 =(3 , 4.591)m

Q2=1.600 μC

Located at (-2.626 m , 0)

Let the point where the electric potential will be zero be (x, y)

Therefore,

r1=(3-x, 4.952-y)

r2=(-2.626-x, -y)

Then, electric potential at that point is given as

V1+V2=0

Then,

KQ1/r1 +KQ2/r2=0

Divide through by k

Q1/r1+Q2/r2=0

-2.72/(3-x, 4.952-y) + 1.6/(-2.626-x, -y)=0

2.72/(3-x, 4.952-y) =1.6/(-2.626-x, -y)

For x axis

2.72/(3-x)=1.6/(-2.626-x)

Cross multiply

2.72(-2.626-x)=1.6(3-x)

-7.14272-2.72x=4.8-1.6x

-2.72x+1.6x=4.8+7.14272

-1.12x=11.94272

x=-11.94272/1.12

x=-10.663m

For y axis

2.72/(3-x, 4.952-y) =1.6/(-2.626-x, -y)

2.72/(4.952-y)=1.6/-y

Cross multiply

-2.72y=1.6(4.952-y)

-2.72y=7.9232-1.6y

-2.72y+1.6y=7.9232

-1.12y=7.9232

y=7.9232/-1.12

y=-7.074m

(x, y)=(-10.663, -7.074)m

A motorcycle is moving at 30 m/s when the rider applies the brakes, giving the motorcycle a constant deceleration. During the 3.

shutvik [7]

Answer:

The motorcycle travelled 69.73 m during these 3.1 s.

Explanation:

In order to calculate the distance that the motorcycle travelled we first need to obtain the acceleration rate that was used to brake the vehicle. We do that by using the following formula:

a = (V_final - V_initial)/(t) = (15 - 30)/(3.1) = -4.84 m/s^2

The distance is given by the following formula:

S = (V_final^2 - V_initial^2)/(2*a)

S = (15^2 - 30^2)/[2*(-4.84)] = (225 - 900)/(-9.68) = -675/(-9.68) = 69.73 m

The motorcycle travelled 69.73 m during these 3.1 s.

If a marathon runner averages 9.51 mi/hr, how long does it take him to run a 26.220-mile marathon. Express your answers in hours

ASHA 777 [7]

Explanation:

Speed of the marathon runner, v = 9.51 mi/hr

Distance covered by the runner, d = 26.220 mile

Let t is the time taken by the marathon runner. We know that the speed of the runner is given by total distance divided by total time taken. Mathematically, it is given by :

$v=\dfrac{d}{t}$

$t=\dfrac{d}{v}$

$t=\dfrac{26.220\ mi}{9.51\ mi/hr}$

t = 2.75 hours

Since, 1 hour = 60 minutes

t = 165 minutes

Since, 1 minute = 60 seconds

t = 9900 seconds

Hence, this is the required solution.

A wire carrying a 29.0 A current passes between the poles of a strong magnet such that the wire is perpendicular to the magnet's

Dmitrij [34]

Answer:

2.59 T

Explanation:

Parameters given:

Current flowing through the wire, I = 29 A

Angle between the magnetic field and wire, θ = 90°

Magnetic force, F = 2.25 N

Length of wire, L = 3 cm = 0.03 m

The magnetic force, F, is related to the magnetic field, B, by the equation below:

F = I * L * B * sinθ

Inputting the given parameters:

2.25 = 29 * 0.03 * B * sin90

2.25 = 0.87 * B

=> B = 2.25/0.87

B = 2.59 T

The magnetic field strength between the poles is 2.59 T

The fast train known as the TGV (Train à Grande Vitesse) that runs south from Paris, France, has a scheduled average speed of 21

andrezito [222]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

average speed of train $(v_{avg})=216 kmph\approx 60 m/s$

Maximum acceleration=0.05g

Now centripetal acceleration is

$a_c=\frac{v^2}{r}$

$0.05\times 9.8=\frac{60^2}{r}$

r=7346.93 m

(b)Radius of curvature=900 m

therefore $a_c=\frac{v^2}{r}$

$v=\sqrt{a_cr}$

$v=\sqrt{0.05\times 9.8\times 900}$

$v=\sqrt{441}=21 m/s$
