The electric potential at the dot in the figure is 3160 V. What is charge q?

PSYCHO15rus [73]

Hi there!

Recall the equation for electric potential of a point charge:

$V = \frac{kQ}{r}$

V = Electric potential (V)
k = Coulomb's Constant(Nm²/C²)

Q = Charge (C)
r = distance (m)

We can begin by solving for the given electric potentials. Remember, charge must be accounted for. Electric potential is also a SCALAR quantity.

Upper right charge's potential:

$V = \frac{(8.99*10^9)(-5 * 10^{-9})}{0.04} = -1123.75 V$

Lower left charge's potential:

$V = \frac{(8.99*10^9)(5*10^{-9})}{0.02} = 2247.5 V$

Add the two, and subtract from the total EP at the point:

$3160 + 1123.75 - 2247.5 = 2036.25$

The remaining charge must have a potential of 2036.25 V, so:

$2036.25 = \frac{(8.99*10^9)(Q)}{\sqrt{0.02^2 + 0.04^2}}\\\\2036.25 = \frac{(8.99*10^9)Q}{0.0447} \\\\Q = 0.000000010127 = \boxed{10.13nC}$

MRU(movimiento rectilineo uniforme) un movil viaja en linea recta con una velocidad media de 12metros /segundos durante 9segundo

liubo4ka [24]

Answer:

a) 141.6m

b) 8.4m/s

Explanation:

a) to find the total displacement you use the following formula for each trajectory. Next you sum the results:

$x_1=v_1t_1=(12m/s)(9s)=108m\\\\x_2=v_2t_2=(4.8m/s)(7s)=33.6m\\\\x_T=x_1+x_2=108m+33.6m=141.6m$

hence, the total distance is 141.6m

b) the mean velocity of the total trajectory is given by:

$v_m=\frac{v_1+v_2}{2}=\frac{12m/s+4.8m/s}{2}=8.4\frac{m}{s}$

hence, the mean velocity is 8.4 m/s
