Three point charges are located in the x-y plane. q1 = -52.1 nC at (0.00, +3.10 cm), q2 = +25.4 nC at (-4.70 cm, 0.00) and q3 =

-18.2 nC at (+7.50 cm, -8.70 cm). Determine the x component of the net electric field at the origin (0.00 m, 0.00m), due to the charges. Give your answer in the form "[+/-a.bc x 10^(x) N/C]j". Note that j is the unit vector in the y direction.

Answer:

E= 1.11 x 10^5 N/C

Explanation:

Given

Magnitude of charges

Q1 = -52.1 nC

Q2 = +25.4 nC

Q3 = -18.2 nC

Location of point Charge Q1, A= (0.00 i + 3.10 j) cm  

Location of point charge Q2, B = (-4.71 i + 0.00 j) cm

Location of point charge Q3, C = (7.50 i -8.70 j) cm

location of the origin is O = (0.00 i + 0.00 j) cm

Solution

The eleectric feild will be directed away from the positive charge along the line BO and towards the negative charges along lines OA and OC respectively

OA = A -O = (0.00 i + 3.10 j) cm  = (0.0000 i + 0.0310 j ) m ( direction of the

BO = O - B = (4.71 i - 0.00 j) cm = (0.0471 i + 0.000 j ) m

OC = C -A = (7.50 i -8.70 j) cm = (0.0750 i + 0.0870 j ) m

|OA| = \sqrt{0^{2} +3.10^{2} } \\|OA| =3.10 cm \\|OA| = 0.0310 m\\\\|BO| = \sqrt{4.71^{2} +0^{2} } \\|BO| =4.71 cm \\|BO| = 0.0471 m\\\\|OC| = \sqrt{7.50^{2} +8.70^{2} } \\|OC| =11.5  cm\\|OC| = 0.1149 m\\\\

E_{1} =\frac{kQ_{1} }{|OA|^{3} } OA \\\\E_{1} =\frac{9\times 10^{9} \times 52.1 \times 10^{-9} }{|0.0310|^{3}} (0.0000 i + 0.0310 j )\\\\E_{1} = (0.00 i + 487,929 j) N/C \\\\

E_{2} =\frac{kQ_{2} }{|BO|^{3} } BO \\\\E_{2} =\frac{9\times 10^{9} \times 25.4 \times 10^{-9} }{|0.0470|^{3}} (0.0470 i + 0.0000 j )\\\\E_{2} = (103486 i + 0 j ) N/C \\\\

E_{3} =\frac{kQ_{3} }{|OC|^{3} } OC \\\\E_{3} =\frac{9\times 10^{9} \times 18.2 \times 10^{-9} }{|0.1149^{3}} (0.0750 i - 0.0870 j )\\\\E_{3} = (8098.7 i - 9394.5 j ) N/C\\\\

E_{x} = E_{1x} +E_{2x} +E_{3x} \\E_{x} = (0+ 103486 +8098.7 )j\\E_{x}=111584.7 N/C\\E_{x} = 1.11 \times 10^{5} N/C

The correct response that will be used to describe this particular element would be the third option, since all of the other options are incorrect and apply to different elements in their groups. The element is a metal and will react with a non metal.

I WILL GIVE BRAINLIST just please help with these problems 3
statuscvo [17]

Answer:

16. 68.18 Km/h

17. 3 miles.

Explanation:

16. Determination of the speed

Distance travelled = 150 Km

Time = 2.2 hours

Speed =?

Speed is simply defined as the distance travelled with time. Mathematically, it is expressed as:

Speed = Distance / time

With the above formula, we can obtain the speed as follow:

Distance travelled = 150 Km

Time = 2.2 hours

Speed =?

Speed = Distance /time

Speed = 150 / 2.2

Speed = 68.18 Km/h

17. Determination of the distance.

Speed = 3 mph

Time = 1 hour

Distance =?

Speed = Distance /time

3 = distance / 1

Distance = 3 miles
