Point charge A is located at point A and point charge B is at point B. Points A and B are separated by a distance r. To determin

e the electric potential at the mid-point along a line between points A and B, which of the following mathematical approaches is correct? a. The difference in the absolute value (the sign of the charges does not enter into the calculation) of the two electric potentials is determined at a distance r/2 from each of the charges. b. The algebraic sum of the two electric potentials is determined at a distance r/2 from each of the charges, making sure to include the signs of the charges. c. The electric potential due to each charge is determined at a distance r/2 from each of the charges and an average is taken of the two values. d. The vector sum of the two electric potentials determines the total electric potential at a distance r/2 from each of the charges

Answer:

B. The algebraic sum of the two electric potentials is determined at a distance r/2 from each of the charges, making sure to include the signs of the charges.

Explanation:

Total electric potential is the sum of all the electric potential. And because electric potential is a scalar quantity you have to account for the signs.

A roller coaster has a "hump" and a "loop" for riders to enjoy (see picture). The top of the hump has a radius of curvature of 1
aivan3 [116]

Answer:

Part a)

F_n = 306 N

Part b)

v = 12.1 m/s

So this speed is independent of the mass of the rider

Explanation:

Part a)

By force equation on the rider at the position of the hump we can say

mg - F_n = ma_c

now we will have

mg - F_n = \frac{mv^2}{R}

F_n = mg - \frac{mv^2}{R}

now we have

F_n = 100(9.81) - \frac{100(9^2)}{12}

F_n = 981 - 675

F_n = 306 N

Part b)

At the top of the loop if the minimum speed is required so that it remains in contact so we will have

F_n + mg = ma_c

F_n = 0 at minimum speed

mg = \frac{mv^2}{R}

v = \sqrt{Rg}

v = \sqrt{15 \times 9.81}

v = 12.1 m/s

So this speed is independent of the mass of the rider

True or False: Amplitude can increase or decrease wavelength
Marat540 [252]

Answer:

A. False, frequency can increase or decrease wavelength.

For example: a high frequency would mean there are shorter wavelengths that occur in a period. Meanwhile, a low frequency would indicate that the wavelengths are longer and in longer periods.

One of the world's largest Ferris wheels, the Cosmo Clock 21 with a radius of 50.0 m is located in Yokohama City, Japan. Each of
STatiana [176]

Answer:

a = 0.55 m / s²

Explanation:

The centripetal acceleration is given by the relation

         a = v² / r

angular and linear velocities are related

         v = w r

we substitute

          a = w² r

In the exercise they indicate the angular velocity w = 1 rev/min, let's reduce to the SI system

          w = 1 rev / min (2pi rad / 1rev) (1min / 60s) = 0.105 rad/ s

let's calculate

          a = 0.105² 50.0

          a = 0.55 m / s²

A museum curator moves artifacts into place on various different display surfaces. If the curator moves a 145 kg aluminum sculpt
NikAS [45]
We are given the mass of an <span>aluminum sculpture which is 145 kg and a horizontal force equal to 668 Newtons. The coefficient of friction can be determined by dividing the horizontal force by the weight of the object. In this case, 668 N / 145 * 9.8 equal to coeff of friction of 0.47</span>
