Answer: The question has some details missing. here is the complete question ; Point charge 1.5 μC is located at x = 0, y = 0.30 m, point charge -1.5 μC is located at x = 0 y = -0.30m. What are (a)the magnitude and (b)direction of the total electric force that these charges exert on a third point charge Q = 5.0 μC at x = 0.40 m, y = 0
Explanation:
- a) First of all find the distance between the two charges;
- x = 0, y = 0.30 and x = 0.40 m, y = 0
hence, the force F = 2Kq1q2cosθ /r²...............equation 1
but cosθ = y/r = 0.3/0.5
cosθ = 0.6
plugging back to equation 1;
F = 2 x 9 x 10^9 x 1.5 x 10^-6 x 5 x 10^-6 /0.5^2
F = 540 x 10^-3
Magnitude of Force = 0.54N
b) Direction is at angle 90
Answer:
The neutron loses all of its kinetic energy to nucleus.
Explanation:
Given:
Mass of neutron is 'm' and mass of nucleus is 'm'.
The type of collision is elastic collision.
In elastic collision, there is no loss in kinetic energy of the system. So, total kinetic energy is conserved. Also, the total momentum of the system is conserved.
Here, the nucleus is still. So, its initial kinetic energy is 0. So, the total initial kinetic energy will be equal to kinetic energy of the neutron only.
Now, final kinetic energy of the system will be equal to the initial kinetic energy.
Now, as the nucleus was at rest initially, so the final kinetic energy of the nucleus will be equal to the initial kinetic energy of the neutron.
Thus, all the kinetic energy of the neutron will be transferred to the nucleus and the neutron will come to rest after collision.
Therefore, the neutron loses all of its kinetic energy to nucleus.
Answer:
A molecule called DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) is passed from adult organisms to their offspring during reproduction. This molecule containsthe instructions for an organism to develop, grow, survive and reproduce.
