Answer:

The electric potential at the midpoint between the two particles is 3.349 X 10⁻³ Volts

Explanation:

Electric potential is given as;

V = E*r

where;

E is the electric field strength, = kq/r²

V = ( kq/r²)*r

V = kq/r

k is coulomb's constant = 8.99 X 10⁹ Nm²/C²

q is the charge of the particles = 1.6 X 10⁻¹⁹ C

r is the distance between the particles = 859 nm

At midpoint, the distance = r/2 = 859nm/2 = 429.5 nm

V = (8.99 X 10⁹  * 1.6 X 10⁻¹⁹)/ (429.5 X 10⁻⁹)

V = 3.349 X 10⁻³ Volts

Therefore, the electric potential at the midpoint between the two particles is 3.349 X 10⁻³ Volts

Does every light source emit only one type of light?
blsea [12.9K]

Yes it is possible. Spectrum of emitted light depends upon the chemical composition of the source. and the way of its excitation. a clear example to us is that of sun.

Starting from rest, a disk rotates about its central axis with constant angular acceleration. In 5.00 s, it rotates 13.9 rad. Du
alisha [4.7K]

Answer:

(a) Angular acceleration is 1.112 rad/s².

(b) Average angular velocity is 2.78 rad/s .

Explanation:

The equation of motion in Rotational kinematics is:

θ = θ₀ + 0.5αt²

Here θ is angular displacement at time t, θ₀ is angular displacement at time t=0, t is time and α is constant angular acceleration.

(a) According to the problem, θ is 13.9 rad, θ₀ is zero as it is at rest and t is 5 s. Put these values in the above equation:

13.9 = 0 + 0.5α(5)²

α = 1.112 rad/s²

(b) The equation of average angular velocity is:

ω = Δθ/Δt

ω = \frac{13.9}{5}

ω = 2.78 rad/s

Two identical small charged spheres hang in equilibrium with equal masses (0.02kg). The length of the strings is equal (0.18m) a
Yuliya22 [10]

Answer:

The value is q = 3.4 *10^{-6} \ C

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

    The mass of each sphere is m_1 = m_2  = m  =  0.020 \ kg

     The length of the string is  l = 0.18 \  m

     The angle of with the vertical is \theta  =  7^o

      The acceleration due to gravity is g = 9.8 \ m/s^2

Generally the force acting between the forces is mathematically represented as

       F  =  T cos \theta =  \frac{k*  q^2}{ r^2}

=>     T cos \theta =  \frac{k*  q^2}{ r^2}

Generally from Pythagoras theorem the radius of the circular curve created by the force is

         r = 2 L sin (\theta )

=>      r = 2* 0.180 sin (7)

=>      r = 0.043 \ m  

=>     q = tan \theta * \frac{m * g * r^2 }{k}

=>      q = tan(7)* \frac{ 0.02 * 9.8 * 0.043^2 }{9*10^{9}}

=>      q = 3.4 *10^{-6} \ C
