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.

Can we see a halo around the half moon?​
Hatshy [7]

Answer:

No we cannot

Explanation:

But what causes a ring to appear around the moon? This phenomenon is called a "moon halo." According to the National Weather Service, this ring of light, which is actually an optical illusion, forms around the moon when moonlight refracts off ice crystals in cirrus clouds, high up in the Earth's atmosphere.

A 5.4 g lead bullet moving at 261 m/s strikes a steel plate and stops. If all its kinetic energy is converted to thermal energy
scZoUnD [109]

Answer:

Change in temperature ∆(tita) is 266.097°C

Explanation:

Ok kinectic energy = 1/2MV²

5.4 grams =( 5.4/1000) kilogram

Kinectic energy =( 1/2 )*(5.4/1000)*261²

Kinectic energy = 183.9267 joules

If kinetic energy = thermal energy

183.9267 joules = mc∆(tita)

Where ∆(tita) = change in temperature

And c = 128 J/kg

∆(tita) = 183.9267/((5.4/1000)*128)

∆(tita) = 266.097

∆(tita) = 266.097°C

A car moving at 10 m/s crashes into a large bush and stops in 1.3 m. Using the Work-Energy theorem, calculate the average force
ad-work [718]

Answer:

The magnitude of the average force the seat belt exerts on the passenger is 2692.3 N.

It takes 0.26 s to bring the passenger in the car to a halt.

Explanation:

Hi there!

The negative work (W) needed to bring a moving object to stop is equal to its kinetic energy (KE):

W = KE

F · s = 1/2 · m · v²

Where:

F = applied force on the passenger.

s = displacement of the passenger.

m = mass of the passenger.

v = velocity of the passenger.

Solving the equation for F:

F = 1/2 · m · v² / s

Replacing with the data:

F = 1/2 · 70 kg · (10 m/s)² / 1.3 m

F = 2692.3 N

The magnitude of the average force the seat belt exerts on the passenger is 2692.3 N.

According to the second law of Newton:

F = m · a

Where "a" is the acceleration of the passenger.

We also know from kinematics that the velocity of an object can ve calculated as follows:

v = v0 + a · t

Where:

v = velocity of the passenger at time t.

v0 = initial velocity.

t = time.

a = acceleration.

When the passenger stops, its velocity is zero. So replacing a = F/m, let´s solve the equation for the time it takes the passenger to stop:

v = v0 + a · t

0 = 10 m/s + (-2692.3 N/ 70 kg) · t

-10 m/s / (-2692.3 N/ 70 kg)  = t

t =0.26 s

It takes 0.26 s to bring the passenger in the car to a halt.
