Three point charges have equal magnitudes, two being positive and one negative. These charges are fixed to the corners of an equ

ilateral triangle, as the drawing shows. The magnitude of each of the charges is 3.0 μC, and the lengths of the sides of the triangle are 1.0 cm. Calculate the magnitude of the net force that each charge experiences.

Answer:

Magnitude of the net force on q₁-

Fn₁=1403 N

Magnitude of the net force on q₂+

Fn₂= 810 N

Magnitude of the net force on q₃+

Fn₃= 810 N

Explanation:

Look at the attached graphic:

The charges of the same sign exert forces of repulsion and the charges of   opposite sign exert forces of attraction.

Each of the charges experiences 2 forces and these forces are equal and we calculate them with Coulomb's law:

F= (k*q*q)/(d)²

F= (9*10⁹*3*10⁻⁶*3*10⁻⁶)(0.01)² =810N

Magnitude of the net force on q₁-

Fn₁x= 0

Fn₁y= 2*F*sin60 = 2*810*sin60° = 1403 N

Fn₁=1403 N

Magnitude of the net force on q₃+

Fn₃x= 810- 810 cos 60° = 405 N

Fn₃y= 810*sin 60° = 701.5 N

Fn_{3} = \sqrt{405^{2}+701.5^{2}  }

Fn₃ = 810 N

Magnitude of the net force on q₂+

Fn₂ = Fn₃ = 810 N

Ber [7]

Answer: 0.5

Explanation:

The modulus of elasticity (called <em>"alargamiento unitario"</em> in spanish) \epsilon of a spring is given by the following formula:

\epsilon=\frac{\Delta L}{L}

Where:

L=10 cm  is the original length of the spring

\Delta L=L_{f}-L  is the elongation of the spring, being L_{f}=15 cm the length of the spring after a force is applied to it.

\epsilon=\frac{L_{f}-L}{L}=\frac{15 cm - 10 cm}{10 cm}

Then:

\epsilon=0.5

An electron is moving horizontally east in an electric field that points vertically downward. The electric force on the electron
saveliy_v [14]

Answer:

d. )directed upward.

Explanation:

As the electron has a negative charge, when under the influence of an electric field, is subject to an electric force, which direction is the opposite to the direction of the electric field.

This is because the electric field has the same direction that the force on a positive test charge at the same point.

As the electric field points vertically downward, the electric force on the electron (a negative charge) points vertically upward.

So, the statement d. is the one that results to be true.
