Answer:
If all these three charges are positive with a magnitude of
each, the electric potential at the midpoint of segment
would be approximately
.
Explanation:
Convert the unit of the length of each side of this triangle to meters:
.
Distance between the midpoint of
and each of the three charges:
Let
denote Coulomb's constant (
.)
Electric potential due to the charge at
:
.
Electric potential due to the charge at
:
.
Electric potential due to the charge at
:
.
While forces are vectors, electric potentials are scalars. When more than one electric fields are superposed over one another, the resultant electric potential at some point would be the scalar sum of the electric potential at that position due to each of these fields.
Hence, the electric field at the midpoint of
due to all these three charges would be:
.
Answer:
As an object moves in a circle, it is constantly changing its direction. ... Accelerating objects are objects which are changing their velocity - either the speed (i.e., magnitude of the velocity vector) or the direction. An object undergoing uniform circular motion is moving with a constant speed.
Answer:

Explanation:
The gravitational force between the proton and the electron is given by

where
G is the gravitational constant
is the proton mass
is the electron mass
r = 3 m is the distance between the proton and the electron
Substituting numbers into the equation,

The electrical force between the proton and the electron is given by

where
k is the Coulomb constant
is the elementary charge (charge of the proton and of the electron)
r = 3 m is the distance between the proton and the electron
Substituting numbers into the equation,

So, the ratio of the electrical force to the gravitational force is

So, we see that the electrical force is much larger than the gravitational force.
Answer:
14.3kg
Explanation:
Given parameters:
Quantity of heat = 149000J
Change in temperature = 5.23°C
specific heat of the ice = 2000J/kg°C
Unknown:
Mass of the ice in the bag = ?
Solution:
The heat capacity of a substance is given as:
H = m c Ф
H is the heat capacity
m is the mass
c is the specific heat
Ф is the temperature change;
since m is the unknown, we make it the subject of the expression;
m = H/ mФ
m =
= 14.3kg
Answer:
2km
Explanation:
Given data
We are told that the direction traveled are
North>>>East>>>South
Hence the displacement is defined as the distance away from the initial position is
Initial position =18km
FInal position = 16km
The displacement = 18-16= 2km
Hence the displacement is 2km
