Question 1 (13 marks) A charge Q is located on the top-left corner of a square. Charges of 2Q, 3Q and 4Q are located on the othe

r corners as shown above in the Figure. Assuming each side of the square is 5cm in length, and the charge Q= 2.5 µC, determine the net force exerted on the 2Q charge due to the other charges.

Answer:

Explanation:

First of all we shall calculate electric field near charge 2Q .

electric field due to charge Q = K x Q /  (5 x 10⁻² )²

E₁  = KQ / 25 x 10⁻⁴ = KQ x 10⁴ / 25 . It is acting along positive x axis

E₁  = KQ x 10⁴  i / 25  

Similarly electric field due to charge 3Q near 2Q

=  3KQ x 10⁴  i / 25 . It is acting along y-axis

E₂ = 3KQ x 10⁴  j / 25

Similarly electric field due to charge 4Q near 2Q

=  4KQ x 10⁴  j / (25 x 2 )

= 2 KQ x 10⁴  / 25 . It is acting acting along north east direction

unit vector in north east direction = ( i + j )/ √2

So E₃ can be represented by

E₃ = 2 KQ x 10⁴  ( i + j )  / 25 x √2

Total field =  KQ x 10⁴  i / 25 + 3KQ x 10⁴  j / 25 + 2 KQ x 10⁴  ( i + j )  / ( 25 x √2 )

= KQ x 10⁴  [ i + 3 j + √2 i + √2 j ) / 25

= 400 KQ ( 2.414 i + 4.414 j )  N / C

Force on 2Q = Field x charge = 400 KQ ( 2.414 i + 4.414 j )  x 2Q  N

= 800 KQ² ( 2.414 i + 4.414 j ) N

= 800 x 9 x 10⁹ x ( 2.5 x 10⁻⁶ )² x 2.414 x ( i + 2 j ) N

= 108.63 ( i + 2 j ) N .

Magnitude of this force

= 108.63 x √5

= 243 N approx .

A car has a force of 2000N and a mass of 1000kg. What is the acceleration
Anastaziya [24]

Answer:

2m/s/s

Explanation:

The formula goes- F=MA

F-Force M-Mass & A-Acceleration

We need to rearrange this formula to find the acceleration-

A=F/M

All we need to do now is substitute the values in

A=2000N/1000kg

A=2m/s^2

In the given option the last option (2m/s/s) would be the ans, as it's the same as 2m/s^2

So ya, I guess that's all

give an example of motion in which displacement of the particle is zero but acceleration is not zero in journey?
BartSMP [9]

Motion of a ball thrown by a person upwards and caught after some time is an example of motion in which displacement of the particle is zero but acceleration is not zero in journey.

The displacement of the ball is zero because the starting and end point of the motion are same, i.e, the person's hands.During its motion, the acceleration of ball is constant and non zero called as acceleration due to gravity, g= -9.8 m/s². The velocity of ball is continuously changing. It first decreases during the upward motion of the ball and then increases during the downward journey.The acceleration remains constant and non zero all the time.

An LR circuit contains an ideal 60-V battery, a 42-H inductor having no resistance, a 24-ΩΩ resistor, and a switch S, all in ser
s2008m [1.1K]

Answer:

1.6 s

Explanation:

To find the time in which the potential difference of the inductor reaches 24V you use the following formula:

V_L=V_oe^{-\frac{Rt}{L}}

V_o: initial voltage = 60V

R: resistance = 24-Ω

L: inductance = 42H

V_L: final voltage = 24 V

You first use properties of the logarithms to get time t, next, replace the values of the parameter:

\frac{V_L}{V_o}=e^{-\frac{Rt}{L}}\\\\ln(\frac{V_L}{V_o})=-\frac{Rt}{L}\\\\t=-\frac{L}{R}ln(\frac{V_L}{V_o})\\\\t=-\frac{42H}{24\Omega}ln(\frac{24V}{60V})=1.6s

hence, after 1.6s the inductor will have a potential difference of 24V
