 <span>Place a test charge in the middle. It is 2cm away from each charge. 
The electric field E= F/Q where F is the force at the point and Q is the charge causing the force in this point. 
The test charge will have zero net force on it. The left 30uC charge will push it to the right and the right 30uC charge will push it to the left. The left and right force will equal each other and cancel each other out. 
THIS IS A TRICK QUESTION. 
THe electric field exactly midway between them = 0/Q = 0. 
But if the point moves even slightly you need the following formula 
F= (1/4Piε)(Q1Q2/D^2) 
Assume your test charge is positive and make sure you remember two positive charges repel, two unlike charges attract. Draw the forces on the test charge out as vectors and find the magnetude of the force, then divide by the total charge to to find the electric field strength:)</span>

How does the electron-cloud model describe electrons?
Dominik [7]

Answer:

Yo, you just kind of answered it yourself. The Electron Cloud Model is the informal way of describing an atomic orbital.

Explanation:

The analogy of the cloud of electrons is really describing the groups of electrons orbiting around said atom. Depending on the atom, there will be many or few electrons orbiting around it on all sides which can resemble an all-encompassing cloud.

What is the atmospheric pressure and temperature at sea level in a standard<br> atmosphere?
Lady bird [3.3K]

Answer:

The tropospheric tabulation continues to 11,000 meters (36,089 ft), where the temperature has fallen to −56.5 °C (−69.7 °F), the pressure to 22,632 pascals (3.2825 psi), and the density to 0.3639 kilograms per cubic meter (0.02272 lb/cu ft). Between 11 km and 20 km, the temperature remains constant

A 1.5 kilogram cart initially moves at 2.0 meters per second. It is brought to rest by a constant net forcé in 3.0 second. What
lubasha [3.4K]

The net force on the cart is

                   Force = (mass) x (acceleration) .

We know the mass = 1.5 kilogram, but we need to
calculate the acceleration.

               Acceleration = (change in speed) / (time for the change)

Change in speed = (ending speed) minus (beginning speed)

                               =    ( 0 )  -  ( 2 m/s )  =   -2 m/s

Acceleration =  (change in speed) / (time for the change)

                       =       ( -2 m/s )   /   (3 sec)

                       =           - 2/3  m/s² .

Finally ...        Net force = (mass) x (acceleration)

                                       =  (1.5 kilogram) x ( - 2/3 m/s²)

                                       =  ( - 3/2 x 2/3 )  (kg-m/s²)

                                       =       - 1  newton .

The negative sign on the force means the force is applied
opposite to the direction the cart is moving.  That gives
negative acceleration (slowing down), and the cart
eventually stops.
