Particle q1 has a positive 6 µc charge. particle q2 has a positive 2 µc charge. they are located 0.1 meters apart. recall that k
Dmitrij [34]

(a) Force between the two charges

The electrostatic force between the two charges is given by:

F=k\frac{q_1 q_2}{r^2}

where k is the Coulomb's constant, q1 and q2 the two charges, r their separation.


In this problem:

q_1 =6 \mu C=6 \cdot 10^{-6}C

q_2=2 \mu C=2 \cdot 10^{-6}C

r=0.1 m


Substituting into the equation, we find

F=(8.99 \cdot 10^9 Nm^2C^{-2})\frac{(6 \cdot 10^{-6}C)(2 \cdot 10^{-6}C)}{(0.1 m)^2}=10.8 N


(b) direction of particle q2

Particle q2 wants to move in the direction of the force acting on it. The direction of the force depends on the relative sign of the two charges: like charges attract each other, opposite charges repel each other. In this case, the two charges are both positive, so they repel each other and q2 tends to move away from particle q1.

Difference between of echo and reverberation​
KiRa [710]

Answer:

A difference between of echo and reverberation​  is described below in details.

Explanation:

Here's a piece of immediate information: An echo is an individual consideration of a soundwave off a horizon exterior. Reverberation is the consideration of sound waves generated by the superposition of the before-mentioned echoes. ... A reverberation can happen when a sound wave is displayed off a nearby covering.

A swimming pool, 10.0 m by 4.0 m, is filled with water to a depth of 3.0 m at a temperature of 20.2°c. if the energy needed to r
Tomtit [17]

You need to find the mass of water in the pool.
Find the volume (10 x 4 x 3) = 120 m3

Water has a density of 1000g/m3,so 120 m3 = 120 x 1000 = 120 000 kg

[delta]H = 4.187 x 120 000 x 3.4 (and the units will be kJ)

You then use the heat of combustion knowing that each mole of methane releases 891 kJ of heat so if you divide 891 into the previous answer, you will get the number of moles of CH4

e-lub [12.9K]

Assume a maximum stopping acceleration of g/2 where g is acceleration due to gravity.

Answer:

2.99 m/s

Explanation:

Stopping distance, s = 3 ft = 0.914 m

final velocity, v = 0

a = g/2 = 4.9 m/s²

Use third equation of motion:

v^2-u^2 = 2as

substitute the values to find the speed of train:

0 -u^2 = 2\times -4.9 \times 0.914 \\u^2=8.96 \\u=2.99 m/s
