A +13.4 nC charge is located at (0,9.4) cm and a -4.23 nC charge is located (4.99, 0) cm. Where would a -14.23 nC charge need to
antiseptic1488 [7]

In order to solve this problem, we will first need to find the electric field at the origin without the 3rd charge

E1 = (9x10^9)(13.4x10^-9)/(9.4x10^-2)^2 = 13648.7 V/m towards the negative y-axis

E2 = (9x10^9)(4.23x10^-9)/(4.99x10^-2)^2 = 15289.1 V/m towards the positive x-axis

The red arrow shows the direction of which the electric field points.

To make the electric field at the origin 0, we must find a location where q3 = the magnitude of q1 and q2

Etotal = sqrt(E1+E2) = 20494.97 V/m

E3 = 20494.97 = (9x10^9)(14.23x10^-9)/(d)^2

d = 0.079 m = 7.9 cm

An object of mass m is traveling on a horizontal surface. There is a coefficient of kinetic friction  between the object and th
Gnom [1K]

Answer:

8m * (μg/v)^2

Explanation:

k, the spring constant = ?

(k in terms of μ, m, g, and v.)

Frictional force = μmg

Note: lost KE is converted to work done against the friction + PE of the spring

1/2mv2 = μmgx + 1/2kx^2....equation i

Cancel the 1/2 on both sides

mv^2 = μmgx + kx^2

Lets recall that:

Due to frictional effect, further enegy will be lost when the spring recoils backward

Therefore

1/2kx^2 = μmgx..... equation ii

Let's substitute 1/2kx^2 in equation I for ii

So we can say that:

1/2mv^2 = (μmgx)+ μmgx

1/2mv^2 = 2 (μmgx)

1/4mv^2 = μmgx

Cancel out m on both sides

1/4v^2 = μgx

Make x subject of the formula

x = (1/4v^2) / (μg)...... equation iii

substitute x to equation ii

But first make k in equation ii subject of the formula

1/2kx^2 = μmgx

k = 2μmg/x

Now substitute x

k = 2μmg / ((1/4v^2) / (μg))

k = 2μmg * ((μg) / (1/4v^2))

k = 8m * (μg/v)^2

8m * (μg/v)^2
