Answer:

d)

Explanation:

Newton's 3rd Law tells us that for every action we will have a reaction equal in magnitude and opposite in direction. In a collision between obects A and B this means that the force on A applied by B will be equal in magnitude than the force on B applied by A, which leaves d as the true answer and the rest as false.

Four fixed point charges are at the corners of a square with sides of length L. Q1 is positive and at (OL) Q2 is positive and at
Ne4ueva [31]

Answer:

A) See Annex

B) Fq₁₂ = K *  Q₁*Q₂ /16 [N] (repulsion force)

C)  Fq₃₂  = K * Q₃*Q₂ /16 [N] (repulsion force)

D) Fq₄₂ = K * Q₄*Q₂ /32 [N] (attraction force)

E) Net force (its components)

Fnx = (2,59/64 )* K*Q²  [N] in direction of original Fq₃₂

Fny =(2,59/64 )* K*Q² [N] in direction of original Fq₁₂

Explanation:

For calculation of d (diagonal of the square, we apply Pythagoras Theorem)

d² = L² + L²    ⇒  d² = 2*L²     ⇒ d = √2*L²   ⇒ d= (√2 )*L

d = 4√2 units of length   (we will assume meters, to work with MKS system of units)

B) Force of Q₁ exerts on charge Q₂

Fq₁₂  = K * Q₁*Q₂ /(L)²     Fq₁₂ = K *  Q₁*Q₂ /16 (repulsion force in the direction indicated in annex)

C) Force of Q₃ exerts on charge Q₂

Fq₃₂  = K * Q₃*Q₂ /(L)²     Fq₃₂  = K * Q₃*Q₂ /16  (repulsion force in the direction indicated in annex)

D) Force of -Q₄ exerts on charge Q₂

Fq₄₂ = K * Q₄*Q₂ / (d)²      Fq₄₂ = K * Q₄*Q₂ /32 (Attraction force in the direction indicated in annex)

E) Net force in the case all charges have the same magnitude Q (keeping the negative sign in Q₄)

Let´s take the force that  Q₄ exerts on Q₂  and Q₂ = Q  ( magnitude) and

Q₄ = -Q

Then the force is:

F₄₂ = K * Q*Q / 32       F₄₂  = K* Q²/32  [N]

We should get its components

F₄₂(x) = [K*Q²/32 ]* √2/2   and so is F₄₂(y)  =  [K*Q²/32 ]* √2/2

Note that this components have opposite direction than forces  Fq₁₂  and

Fq₃₂  respectively, and that Fq₁₂ and Fq₃₂ are bigger than F₄₂(x) and  F₄₂(y) respectively

In new conditions

Fq₁₂ = K *  Q₁*Q₂ /16    becomes  Fq₁₂ = K * Q²/ 16 [N]   and

Fq₃₂ = K* Q₃*Q₂ /16      becomes   Fq₃₂ = K* Q² /16  [N]

Note that Fq₁₂ and Fq₃₂ are bigger than F₄₂(x) and  F₄₂(y) respectively

Then over x-axis we subtract Fq₃₂ - F₄₂(x)  = Fnx

and over y-axis, we subtract   Fq₁₂ - F₄₂(y) = Fny

And we get:

Fnx = K* Q² /16 - [K*Q²/32 ]* √2/2  ⇒  Fnx =  K*Q² [1/16 - √2/64]

Fnx = (2,59/64 )* K*Q²

Fny has the same magnitude  then

Fny =(2,59/64 )* K*Q²

The fact that Fq₁₂ and Fq₃₂ are bigger than F₄₂(x) and  F₄₂(y) respectively, means that Fnx and Fny remains as repulsion forces

2. Two charges at fixed locations produce an electric field as shown
vagabundo [1.1K]

Answer:

sum of the two forces as both point to the right is a force that points to the right,

Explanation:

The force on the cast load at point Y is given by

        F = q_y  E

force is a vector magnitude so its result is

        ∑ F = Fₐ + F_b

indicate that the charge at y is negative, we analyze the direction of the force created by each charge

Charge A

as the electric field is incoming the charge is negative and as the test charge is negative both repel each other, consequently the force points to the right

Charge B

in this case the electric field lines are salient, therefore the charge is positive, consequently the force on the charge at y is attractive and points to the right

the sum of the two forces as both point to the right is a force that points to the right, that is, in the direction of the charge located at B

The Apollo Lunar Module was used to make the transition from the spacecraft to the moon's surface and back. Consider a similar m
lions [1.4K]

Answer:

Explanation:

a. Landing height is

H=1.3m

Velocity of lander relative to the earth is, i.e this is the initial velocity of the spacecraft

u=1.3m/s

Velocity of lander at impact, i.e final velocity is needed

v=?

The acceleration due to gravity is 0.4 times that of the one on earth,

Then, g on earth is approximately 9.81m/s²

Then, g on Mars is

g=0.4×9.81=3.924m/s²

Then using equation of motion for a free fall body

v²=u²+2gH

v²=1.3²+2×3.924×1.3

v²=1.69+10.2024

v²=11.8924

v=√11.8924

v=3.45m/s

The impact velocity of the spacecraft is 3.45m/s

b. For a lunar module, the safe velocity landing is 3m/s

v=3m/s.

Given that the initial velocity is 1.2m/s²

We already know acceleration due to gravity on Mars is g=3.924m/s²

The we need to know the maximum height to have a safe velocity of 3m/s

Then using equation of motion

v²=u²+2gH

3²=1.2²+2×3.924H

9=1.44+7.848H

9-1.44=7.848H

7.56=7.848H

H=7.56/7.848

H=0.963m

The the maximum safe landing height to obtain a final landing velocity of 3m/s is 0.963m
