Four +2 μC charges are placed at the positions (10 cm, 0 cm), (−10 cm, 0 cm), (0 cm, 10 cm), and (0 cm, −10 cm) such that they f

orm a diamond shape centered on the origin. A charge of +5 μC is placed at the origin. If the force between a +2 μC and a +5 μC charge separated by 10 cm has a magnitude of 9 N, which of the following can we say about the force on the +5 μC charge at the origin in this case?

Answer:

The force will be zero

Explanation:

Due to the symmetric location of the +2μC charges the forces the excert over the +5μC charge will cancel each other resulting in a net force with a magnitude of zero.However in this case it would be an unstable equilibrium, very vulnerable to a kind of bucking. If the central charge is not perfectly centered on the vertical axis the forces will have components in that axis that will add together instead of canceling each other.

if a torque of 55.0 N/m is required and the largest force that can be exerted by you is 135 N what is th e length of the lever a
Whitepunk [10]

Answer:

r=0.41m

Explanation:

Torque is defined as the cross product between the position vector ( the lever arm vector connecting the origin to the point of force application) and the force vector.

\tau=r\times F

Due to the definition of cross product, the magnitude of the torque is given by:

\tau=rFsin\theta

Where \theta is the angle between the force and lever arm vectors. So, the length of the lever arm (r) is minimun when sin\theta is equal to one, solving for r:

r=\frac{\tau}{F}\\r=\frac{55\frac{N}{m}}{135N}\\r=0.41m

A hollow cylinder that is rolling without slipping is given a velocity of 5.0 m/s and rolls up an incline to a vertical height o
inysia [295]

Answer:

The hollow cylinder rolled up the inclined plane by 1.91 m

Explanation:

From the principle of conservation of mechanical energy, total kinetic energy = total potential energy

M.E_T = \frac{1}{2}mv^2 + \frac{1}{2} I \omega^2 + mgh

The total energy at the bottom of the inclined plane = total energy at the top of the inclined plane.

\frac{1}{2}mv_i^2 + \frac{1}{2} I \omega_i^2 + mg(0) =  \frac{1}{2}mv_f^2 + \frac{1}{2} I \omega_f^2 + mgh

moment of inertia, I, of a hollow cylinder = ¹/₂mr²

substitute for I in the equation above;

\frac{1}{2}mv_i^2 + \frac{1}{2} (\frac{1}{2}mr^2  \omega_i^2) =  \frac{1}{2}mv_f^2 + \frac{1}{2} (\frac{1}{2}mr^2  \omega_f^2) + mgh\\\\ but \ v = r \omega\\\\\frac{1}{2}mv_i^2 + \frac{1}{2} (\frac{1}{2}m v_i^2  ) =  \frac{1}{2}mv_f^2 + \frac{1}{2} (\frac{1}{2}m v_f^2) + mgh\\\\\frac{1}{2}mv_i^2 +\frac{1}{4}mv_i^2 = \frac{1}{2}mv_f^2 +\frac{1}{4}mv_f^2 +mgh\\\\\frac{3}{4}mv_i^2 = \frac{3}{4}mv_f^2 +mgh\\\\mgh = \frac{3}{4}mv_i^2 -  \frac{3}{4}mv_f^2\\\\gh = \frac{3}{4}v_i^2 -  \frac{3}{4}v_f^2\\\\

h = \frac{3}{4g}(v_1^2 -v_f^2)

given;

v₁ = 5.0 m/s

vf = 0

g = 9.8 m/s²

h = \frac{3}{4g}(v_1^2 -v_f^2) =\frac{3}{4*9.8}(5^2 -0) = 1.91 \ m

Therefore, the hollow cylinder rolled up the inclined plane by 1.91 m
