Answer:

q₃ = - 13.0935 μC

Explanation:

Given

q₁ = q₂ = +7.67 μC

We use the equation

V = Kq/r

We can apply it as follows

V₁ = K*q₁/r₁ = K*q₁/(√2*L)

V₂ = K*q₂/r₂ = K*q₂/L

V₃ = K*q₃/r₃ = K*q₃/L

Then

V₁ + V₂ + V₃ = 0

⇒   (K*q₁/(√2*L)) + (K*q₂/L) + (K*q₃/L) = 0

⇒   (K/L)*((q₁/√2) + q₂ + q₃) = 0

⇒   (q₁/√2) + q₂ + q₃ = 0

Since q₁ = q₂

⇒   (q₁)((1/√2) + 1) + q₃ = 0

⇒   q₃ = - (q₁)((1/√2) + 1) = +7.67 μC*(1.7071)

⇒   q₃ = - 13.0935 μC

A 0.75 kilogram apple is thrown upward from the ground. The apple reaches a height of 5.5m, what is the beginning gravitational
MaRussiya [10]

Answer:

U(0.0m) = 0J

U(5.5m) = 40.42 J

Explanation:

The gravitational potential energy is given by the following formula:

U=mgh

h: height

m: mass of the apple = 0.75kg

g: gravitational acceleration = 9.8m/s^2

When the apple is at 5.5m from the ground the gravitational potential energy is:

U=(0.75kg)(9.8m/s^2)(5.5m)=40.42\ J

when the apple is on the ground you have:

U=mg(0m)=0\ J

An atom of a certain element has 36 protons, 36 electrons, and a mass number of 84. At room temperature, this element is a very
Grace [21]

Answer:

12 neutrons

Explanation:

The number of protons also shows the atomic number. Therefore the element in question is Krypton (Kr), which also is a noble gas.

Neutrons = Mass number - protons - electrons

Here neutrons = 84 - 36 - 36 = 12

Explain where most of the mass of an atom is located. Also, explain why some particles that make up the atom do not contribute m
Naddika [18.5K]
Within an atom, there are three elementary particles: the proton, neutron, and electron. Most of the mass of an atom is situated within the nucleus, which is the central part of the atom. It is made up of protons and neutrons, which are the heaviest subatomic particles. The electrons within the atom, orbit around the nucleus at a very far distance. Electrons are also a part of the lightest group of subatomic particles called leptons. That is why these electrons don't contribute much to the majority of an atoms mass. They are very light and they orbit at very far distances.

A 3.0-kg brick rests on a perfectly smooth ramp inclined at 34° above the horizontal. The brick is kept from sliding down the pl
Firdavs [7]

Answer:

d=0.137 m ⇒13.7 cm

Explanation:

Given data

m (Mass)=3.0 kg

α(incline) =34°

Spring Constant (force constant)=120 N/m

d (distance)=?

Solution

F=mg

F=(3.0)(9.8)

F=29.4 N

As we also know that

Force parallel to the incline=FSinα

F=29.4×Sin(34)

F=16.44 N

d(distance)=F/Spring Constant

d(distance)=16.44/120

d(distance)=0.137 m ⇒13.7 cm
