Answer:
F_total = 29.4 N, directed to the right of particle 2
Explanation:
We must solve this problem in parts, first we calculate each force and then we apply Newton's law to add the forces.
Let's use Coulomb's law to calculate each force
F =
particles 1 and 2
q₁ = 8.0 10⁻⁶ C, q₂ = 3.5 10⁻⁶ C x₁₂ = 0.10 m
F₁₂ = 9 10⁹ 8.0 3.5 10⁻¹² / 0.1²
F₁₂ = 2.59 10¹ N
Since the two charges are of the same sign, this force is repulsive and is directed towards the positive side of the x axis.
particles 2 and 3
q₂ = 3.6 10⁻⁶ C, q₃ = 2.5 10⁻⁶ C, x₂₃ = 0.15 m
we calculate
F₂₃ = 9 10⁹ 3.5 2.5 10⁻¹²/ 0.15²
F₂₃ = 3.5 N
as the charge is of different sign, the force is attractive, therefore it is directed to the right of the load 2
Now we add the forces as vectors
F_total = ∑ F = F₁₂ + F₂₃
F_total = 25.2 +3.5
F_total = 29.4 N
directed to the right of particle 2
Answer:
The object will have an upward acceleration
Explanation:
Let's consider the forces applied on the box. We have only two forces:
- The applied force of push, , downward
- The force of gravity, , (also known as weight of the object), downward
Therefore, the net force on the box is:
Here, we know that force applied is equal or greater than the weight, so
And therefore the net force is greater than zero:
(1)
According to Newton's second law of motion, the net force on the box is equal to the product between its mass and its acceleration:
where
m is the mass of the box
a is its acceleration
Given (1), this means that
Therefore, the box will have an upward acceleration.
In this case force example we have:
So the mass of the box is
So the net force is
And the acceleration is
