Answer:

Charge of particle 2, q_2=-7.13\ \mu C

Explanation:

Given that,

Charge 1, q_1=3.11\ \mu C=3.11\times 10^{-6}\ C

The distance between charges, r = 0.241 m

Force experienced by particle 1, F = 3.44 N

We need to find the magnitude of electric charge 2. It can be calculated using formula of electrostatic force. It is given by :

F=k\dfrac{q_1q_2}{r^2}

q_2=\dfrac{Fr^2}{kq_1}

q_2=\dfrac{3.44\times (0.241)^2}{9\times 10^9\times 3.11\times 10^{-6}}

q_2=7.13\times 10^{-6}\ C

or

q_2=7.13\ \mu C

So, the magnitude of electric charge 2 is q_2=7.13\ \mu C. Since, the force is attractive then the magnitude of charge 2 must be negative.

(20 points) You are at the center of a boat and have been rowing the boat for a long time. You weigh only 80 kg and your 120 kg
valina [46]

Answer:

Explanation:

From the given information:

Let the first weight be m_ 1 = 80 kg

The weight of the buddy be m_2 = 120 kg

The weight of  Bubba be m_3 = 60 kg

Also, since you and Budda are a distance of 4m to each other, then the length to which both meet buddy will be:

x_1 = x_3 = \dfrac{4}{2} \\ \\ = 2

The length of the boat be x_2 = 4 m

∴

We can find the center of mass of the system by using the formula:

X_{CM} = \dfrac{m_1x_1+m_2x_2+m_3x_3}{m_1+m_2+m_3} \\ \\ X_{CM} = \dfrac{(80 \times 2)+(120\times4)+(60\times2)}{80+120+60} \\ \\ X_{CM} = \dfrac{160+480+120}{260} \\ \\ \mathbf{X_{CM} = 2.923}

The diagram shows two charged objects, X and Y.
masya89 [10]

The missing diagram is in the attachments.

Answer: X: positive Y: positive

Explanation: Electric field is a vector quantity, which means it can be represented by a vector arrow: the arrow points in the direction of electric field and its length represents the magnitude at a given location. There are another representation of the electric field called electric field lines, <u>in which the line points away from a positively charged source and towards a negatively charged source</u>. This occurs because it follows a pattern, where the lines points in the direction that a positive test charge would have if it is accelerating on the line.

Analyzing the diagram, it can be observed that the lines are pointing away from both of the charged objects. Therefore, both X and Y are <u>positively charged</u>.

A car starts moving from the position of rest with uniform acceleration of 8m/s^calculate the distance travelled by it during 10
ad-work [718]

We calculate the coordinates at t₁ = 9 min and t₂ = 10 min, since the 10th minute is between t₁ and t₂.

As it leaves from rest, it means that the initial speed is zero


t₁=9 min=540 s

t₂=10 min=600 s

x₁=at₁²/2=8*540²/2=4*291600=1166400 m

x₂=at₂²/2=8*600²/2=4*360000=1440000 m

Δx=x₂-x₁=1440000-1166400=273600 m represents the distance traveled by the car in the 10th minute of travel
