A:True because Lithium is the lighest solid and metal and the third lightest element.
Reversals are the rule, not the exception. Earth has settled in the last 20 million years into a pattern of a pole<span> reversal about every 200,000 to 300,000 years, although it has been more than twice that </span>long<span> since the last reversal.</span>
Answer:
X₃₁ = 0.58 m and X₃₂ = -1.38 m
Explanation:
For this exercise we use Newton's second law where the force is the Coulomb force
F₁₃ - F₂₃ = 0
F₁₃ = F₂₃
Since all charges are of the same sign, forces are repulsive
F₁₃ = k q₁ q₃ / r₁₃²
F₂₃ = k q₂ q₃ / r₂₃²
Let's find the distances
r₁₃ = x₃- 0
r₂₃ = 2 –x₃
We substitute
k q q / x₃² = k 4q q / (2-x₃)²
q² (2 - x₃)² = 4 q² x₃²
4- 4x₃ + x₃² = 4 x₃²
5x₃² + 4 x₃ - 4 = 0
We solve the quadratic equation
x₃ = [-4 ±√(16 - 4 5 (-4)) ] / 2 5
x₃ = [-4 ± 9.80] 10
X₃₁ = 0.58 m
X₃₂ = -1.38 m
For this two distance it is given that the two forces are equal
