Three charges, each of magnitude 10 nC, are at separate corners of a square of edge length 3 cm. The two charges at opposite cor

ners are positive, and the other charge is negative. Find the force exerted by these charges on a fourth charge q = +3 nC at the remaining (upper right) corner. (Assume the +x axis is directed to the right and the +y axis is directed upward.)

Answer:

The force exerted by three charges on the fourth is F_{resultant}=2.74\times10^{-5}\ \rm N

Explanation:

Given:

  • The magnitude of three identical charges, q=10\ \rm nC
  • Length of the edge of the square a=3 cm
  • Magnitude of fourth charge ,Q=3 nC

According to coulombs Law the force F between any two charge particles is given by

F=\dfrac{kQq}{r^2}

where r is the radial distance between them.

Since the force acting on the charge particle will be in different directions so according to triangle law of vector addition

F_{resultant}=\sqrt ((\dfrac{kQq}{L^2})^2+(\dfrac{kQq}{L^2} })^2)+\dfrac{kQq}{(\sqrt{2}L)^2}\\F_{resultant}=\dfrac{kQq}{L^2}(\sqrt{2}-\dfrac{1}{2})\\F_{resultant}=\dfrac{9\times10^9\times10\times10^{-10}\times3\times10^{-9}}{0.03^2}(\sqrt{2}-\dfrac{1}{2})\\F_{resultant}=2.74\times 10^{-5}\ \rm N

This time particle A starts from rest and accelerates to the right at 65.5 cm/s
FrozenT [24]

Answer:

t = 4 s

Explanation:

As we know that the particle A starts from Rest with constant acceleration

So the distance moved by the particle in given time "t"

d = v_i t + \frac{1}{2}at^2

d = 0 + \frac{1}{2}(65.5)t^2

d_1 = 32.75 t^2 cm

Now we know that B moves with constant speed so in the same time B will move to another distance

d_2 = 44 \times t

now we know that B is already 349 cm down the track

so if A and B will meet after time "t"

then in that case

d_1 = 349 + d_2

32.75 t^2 = 349 + 44 t

on solving above kinematics equation we have

t = 4 s

How does the ocean influence climate?
Mazyrski [523]
<span>Ocean currents act much like a conveyer belt, transporting warm water and precipitation from the equator toward the poles and cold water from the poles back to the tropics. Thus, currents regulate global climate, helping to counteract the uneven distribution of solar radiation reaching Earth's surface.</span>
