Answer:

a) F_{r}= -583.72MN i + 183.47MN j + 6.05GN k

b) E=3.04 \frac{GN}{C}

Step-by-step explanation.

In order to solve this problem, we mus start by plotting the given points and charges. That will help us visualize the problem better and determine the direction of the forces (see attached picture).

Once we drew the points, we can start calculating the forces:

r_{AP}^{2}=(3-0)^{2}+(3-0)^{2}+(5+0)^{2}

which yields:

r_{AP}^{2}= 43 m^{2}

(I will assume the positions are in meters)

Next, we can make use of the force formula:

F=k_{e}\frac{q_{1}q_{2}}{r^{2}}

so we substitute the values:

F_{AP}=(8.99x10^{9})\frac{(1C)(2C)}{43m^{2}}

which yields:

F_{AP}=418.14 MN

Now we can find its components:

F_{APx}=418.14 MN*\frac{3}{\sqrt{43}}i

F_{APx}=191.30 MNi

F_{APy}=418.14 MN*\frac{3}{\sqrt{43}}j

F_{APy}=191.30MN j

F_{APz}=418.14 MN*\frac{5}{\sqrt{43}}k

F_{APz}=318.83 MN k

And we can now write them together for the first force, so we get:

F_{AP}=(191.30i+191.30j+318.83k)MN

We continue with the next force. The procedure is the same so we get:

r_{BP}^{2}=(3-1)^{2}+(3-1)^{2}+(5+0)^{2}

which yields:

r_{BP}^{2}= 33 m^{2}

Next, we can make use of the force formula:

F_{BP}=(8.99x10^{9})\frac{(4C)(2C)}{33m^{2}}

which yields:

F_{BP}=2.18 GN

Now we can find its components:

F_{BPx}=2.18 GN*\frac{2}{\sqrt{33}}i

F_{BPx}=758.98 MNi

F_{BPy}=2.18 GN*\frac{2}{\sqrt{33}}j

F_{BPy}=758.98MN j

F_{BPz}=2.18 GN*\frac{5}{\sqrt{33}}k

F_{BPz}=1.897 GN k

And we can now write them together for the second, so we get:

F_{BP}=(758.98i + 758.98j + 1897k)MN

We continue with the next force. The procedure is the same so we get:

r_{CP}^{2}=(3-5)^{2}+(3-4)^{2}+(5-0)^{2}

which yields:

r_{CP}^{2}= 30 m^{2}

Next, we can make use of the force formula:

F_{CP}=(8.99x10^{9})\frac{(7C)(2C)}{30m^{2}}

which yields:

F_{CP}=4.20 GN

Now we can find its components:

F_{CPx}=4.20 GN*\frac{-2}{\sqrt{30}}i

F_{CPx}=-1.534 GNi

F_{CPy}=4.20 GN*\frac{2}{\sqrt{30}}j

F_{CPy}=-766.81 MN j

F_{CPz}=4.20 GN*\frac{5}{\sqrt{30}}k

F_{CPz}=3.83 GN k

And we can now write them together for the third force, so we get:

F_{CP}=(-1.534i - 0.76681j +3.83k)GN

So in order to find the resultant force, we need to add the forces together:

F_{r}=F_{AP}+F_{BP}+F_{CP}

so we get:

F_{r}=(191.30i+191.30j+318.83k)MN + (758.98i + 758.98j + 1897k)MN + (-1.534i - 0.76681j +3.83k)GN

So when adding the problem together we get that:

F_{r}=(-0.583.72i + 0.18347j +6.05k)GN

which is the answer to part a), now let's take a look at part b).

b)

Basically, we need to find the magnitude of the force and divide it into the test charge, so we get:

F_{r}=\sqrt{(-0.583.72)^{2} + (0.18347)^{2} +(6.05)^{2}}

which yields:

F_{r}=6.08 GN

and now we take the formula for the electric field which is:

E=\frac{F_{r}}{q}

so we go ahead and substitute:

E=\frac{6.08GN}{2C}

E=3.04\frac{GN}{C}

in which of the following collisions would you expect the kinetic energy to be conserved? a. a bullet passes through a block of
Scorpion4ik [409]

An elastic collision is one in which the system does not experience a net loss of kinetic energy as a result of the collision. In elastic collisions, momentum and kinetic energy are both conserved.

<h3>Explain about the Elastic Collision?</h3>

A collision between two bodies in physics is referred to as an elastic collision if their combined kinetic energy stays constant. There is no net conversion of kinetic energy into other forms, such as heat, noise, or potential energy, in an ideal, fully elastic collision

An example of an elastic collision is when two balls collide at a pool table. It is an elastic collision when you throw a ball on the ground and it bounces back into your hand because there is no net change in the kinetic energy.

If there is no kinetic energy lost in the impact, the collision is said to be perfectly elastic. A collision is considered to be inelastic if any of the kinetic energy is converted to another kind of energy during the collision.

Say that you are in a large room at temperature TC = 300 K. Someone gives you a pot of hot soup at a temperature of TH = 340 K.
DiKsa [7]

Answer:0.061

Explanation:

Given

T_C=300 k

Temperature of soup T_H=340 K

heat capacity of soup c_v=33 J/K

Here Temperature of soup is constantly decreasing

suppose T is the temperature of soup at any  instant

efficiency is given by

\eta =\frac{dW}{Q}=1-\frac{T_C}{T}

dW=Q(1-\frac{T_C}{T})

dW=c_v(1-\frac{T_C}{T})dT

integrating From T_H to T_C

\int dW=\int_{T_C}^{T_H}c_v(1-\frac{T_C}{T})dT

W=\int_{T_C}^{T_H}33\cdot (1-\frac{300}{T})dT

W=c_v\left [ T-T_C\ln T\right ]_{T_H}^{T_C}

W=c_v\left [ \left ( T_C-T_H\right )-T_C\left ( \ln \frac{T_C}{T_H}\right )\right ]

Now heat lost by soup is given by

Q=c_v(T_C-T_H)

Fraction of the total heat that is lost by the soup can be turned is given by

=\frac{W}{Q}

=\frac{c_v\left [ \left ( T_C-T_H\right )-T_C\left ( \ln \frac{T_C}{T_H}\right )\right ]}{c_v(T_C-T_H)}

=\frac{T_C-T_H-T_C\ln (\frac{T_C}{T_H})}{T_C-T_H}

=\frac{300-340-300\ln (\frac{300}{340})}{300-340}

=\frac{-40+37.548}{-40}

12. An organ pipe that is 1.75 m long and open at both ends produces sound of
podryga [215]

Answer:

354 m/s

Explanation:

For the second overtune (Third harmonic) of an open pipe,

λ = 2L/3................................ Equation 1

Where L = Length of the open pipe, λ = Wave length.

Given: L = 1.75 m.

Substitute into equation 1

λ = 2(1.75)/3

λ = 1.17 m.

From the question,

V = λf.......................... Equation 2

V = speed of sound in the room, f = frequency

Given: f = 303 Hz.

Substitute into equation 2

V = 1.17(303)

V = 353.5

V ≈ 354 m/s

Hence the right answer is 354 m/s

A charge Q is uniformly spread over one surface of a very large nonconducting square elastic sheet having sides of length d. At
yaroslaw [1]

The electric field of a very large (essentially infinitely large) plane of charge is given by:

E = σ/(2ε₀)

E is the electric field, σ is the surface charge density, and ε₀ is the electric constant.

To determine σ:

σ = Q/A

Where Q is the total charge of the sheet and A is the sheet's area. The sheet is a square with a side length d, so A = d²:

σ = Q/d²

Make this substitution in the equation for E:

E = Q/(2ε₀d²)

We see that E is inversely proportional to the square of d:

E ∝ 1/d²

The electric field at P has some magnitude E. Now we double the side length of the sheet while keeping the same amount of charge Q distributed over the sheet. By the relationship of E with d, the electric field at P must now have a quarter of its original magnitude:

E_{new} = E/4
