Answer:

q2 = -4.35*10^-9C

Explanation:

In order to find the values of the second charge, you use the following formula:

V=k\frac{q_1}{r_1}+k\frac{q_2}{r_2}       (1)

V: electric potential = 1.14 kV = 1.14*10^3 kV

k: Coulomb's constant = 8.98*10^9 Nm^2/C^2

q1: charge 1 = 8.60*10^-9 C

q2: charge 2 = ?

r1: distance to the first charge = 20.7mm = 20.7*10^-3 m

r2: distance to the second charge = 15.1mm

You solve the equation (1) for q2, and replace the values of the other parameters:

q_2=\frac{r_2}{k}[V-k\frac{q_1}{r_1}]=\frac{Vr_2}{k}-\frac{q_1r_2}{r_1}\\\\q_2=\frac{(1.14*10^3V)(15.1*10^{-3}m)}{8.98*10^9Nm^2/C^2}-\frac{(8.60*10^{-9}C)(15.1*10^{-3}m)}{20.7*10^{-3}m}\\\\q_2=-4.35*10^{-9}C

The values of the second charge is -4.35*10^-9C

Mass and Weight: What is the mass of an object that experiences a gravitational force of 685 N near Earth's surface where g
11Alexandr11 [23.1K]

Answer:

m = 69.9 kg

Explanation:

The mass and the weight of an object are two different quantities. Mass is basically the amount of matter that is present in a body. It remains same everywhere in the universe and measured in kilograms.

Weight is basically a force. It is the force by which earth attracts everything towards itself. The weight of an object changes from planet to planet, with the change in value of the gravitational acceleration (g).

Therefore, the relation between mass and weight of an object is given by the following formula:

W = mg

m = W/g

where,

m = mass = ?

W = Weight = 685 N

g = 9.8 m/s²

Therefore,

m = (685 N)/(9.8 m/s²)

<u>m = 69.9 kg</u>

Rachel collected data on the speed of sound waves passing through different media.
Helga [31]

The conclusion is, medium Q is most likely a solid because solids have the highest density and sound waves travel fastest in high density media.

<h3>Effect of density on speed of sound</h3>

Sound wave is mechanical wave that requires material medium for its propagation.

A high dense medium, is a medium with closely packed molecules. Since sound wave requires material medium for its propagation, it will travel faster in a high dense medium than a less dense medium.

Thus, the speed of sound increases as the density of the medium increases.

<h3>Speed of sound in the different media</h3>

The conclusion that can be made from the speed of sound in the different media is "Medium Q is most likely a solid because solids have the highest density and sound waves travel fastest in high density media".

Look at the velocity versus time graph below. What is the magnitude of the displacement of the object after it travels for three
Elza [17]

Answer:

C. 12m

Explanation:

veocity =  \frac{displacement}{time}

from the graph v = 4m/s and t = 3 s

d = vt = 4 × 3 = 12 m
