Two charges (q1 = 3.8*10-6C, q2 = 3.2*10-6C) are separated by a distance of d = 3.25 m. Consider q1 to be located at the origin.

Answer:

The distance is 1.69 m.

Explanation:

Given that,

First charge q_{1}= 3.8\times10^{-6}\ C

Second charge q_{2}=3.2\times10^{-6}\ C

Distance = 3.25 m

We need to calculate the distance

Using formula of electric field

E_{1}=E_{2}

\dfrac{kq_{1}}{x^2}=\dfrac{kq_{2}}{(d-x)^2}

\dfrac{q_{1}}{q_{2}}=\dfrac{(x)^2}{(d-x)^2}

\sqrt{\dfrac{q_{1}}{q_{2}}}=\dfrac{x}{d-x}

x=(d-x)\times\sqrt{\dfrac{q_{1}}{q_{2}}}

Put the value into the formula

x=(3.25-x)\times\sqrt{\dfrac{3.8\times10^{-6}}{3.2\times10^{-6}}}

x+x\times\sqrt{\dfrac{3.8\times10^{-6}}{3.2\times10^{-6}}}=3.25\times\sqrt{\dfrac{3.8\times10^{-6}}{3.2\times10^{-6}}}

x(1+\sqrt{\dfrac{3.8\times10^{-6}}{3.2\times10^{-6}}})=3.25\times\sqrt{\dfrac{3.8\times10^{-6}}{3.2\times10^{-6}}}

x=\dfrac{3.25\times\sqrt{\dfrac{3.8\times10^{-6}}{3.2\times10^{-6}}}}{(1+\sqrt{\dfrac{3.8\times10^{-6}}{3.2\times10^{-6}}})}

x=1.69\ m

Hence, The distance is 1.69 m.

Answer:

m = 63 grams

Explanation:

ω = 10 cycles/s(2π radians/cycle) = 20π rad/s

ω = √(k/m)

m = k/ω² = 250/(20π)² = 0.06332... kg

Explain why the total positive charge in every atom of an element is always the<br> same.
geniusboy [140]

Answer:

When an atom has an equal number of electrons and protons, it has an equal number of negative electric charges (the electrons) and positive electric charges (the protons). The total electric charge of the atom is therefore zero and the atom is said to be neutral.

What is the slit spacing of a diffraction necessary for a 600 nm light to have a first order principal maximum at 25.0°?
Sauron [17]

Explanation:

Given that,

Wavelength of light, \lambda=600\ nm=6\times 10^{-7}\ m

Angle, \theta=25^{\circ}

We need to find the slit spacing for diffraction. For a diffraction, the first order principal maximum is given by :

d\sin\theta=n\lambda

n is 1 here

d is slit spacing

d=\dfrac{\lambda}{\sin\theta}\\\\d=\dfrac{6\times 10^{-7}}{\sin(25)}\\\\d=1.41\times 10^{-6}\ m\\\\d=1.41\ \mu m

So, the slit spacing is 1.41\ \mu m.
