A charge of +2.00 x 10^-9 C is placed at the origin, and another charge of +4.50 x 10^-9 C is placed at x = 1.6 m. The Coulomb c

onstant is 8.98755 x 10^9 N m2/C2. Find the point (coordinate) between these two charges where a charge of +3.70 x 10^-9 C should be placed so that the net electric force on it is zero.

Answer:

0.64 m from the first charge

Explanation:

Force is given by

F_1=\dfrac{kq_1q_2}{r^2}\\\Rightarrow F_1=\dfrac{k2\times 10^{-9}\times 3.7\times 10^{-9}}{x^2}

F_2=\dfrac{kq_2q_3}{r^2}\\\Rightarrow F_1=\dfrac{k4.5\times 10^{-9}\times 3.7\times 10^{-9}}{(1.6-x)^2}

These forces are equal

\dfrac{k2\times 10^{-9}\times 3.7\times 10^{-9}}{x^2}=\dfrac{k4.5\times 10^{-9}\times 3.7\times 10^{-9}}{(1.6-x)^2}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{2}{x^2}=\dfrac{4.5}{(1.6-x)^2}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{2}{4.5}=\dfrac{x^2}{(1.6-x)^2}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{4.5}{2}=\dfrac{(1.6-x)^2}{x^2}\\\Rightarrow \sqrt{\dfrac{4.5}{2}}=\dfrac{1.6-x}{x}\\\Rightarrow 1.5=\dfrac{1.6-x}{x}\\\Rightarrow 1.5x+x=1.6\\\Rightarrow x=\dfrac{1.6}{2.5}\\\Rightarrow x=0.64\ m

The distance that charge should be placed is 0.64 m from the first charge

CaHeK987 [17]

The density of sample is 5 g/cm3

Given:

volume of sample = 20 cm3

mass of sample = 100 grams

To Find:

density of sample

Solution: Density is the measure of how much “stuff” is in a given amount of space. For example, a block of the heavier element lead (Pb) will be denser than the softer, lighter element gold (Au). A block of Styrofoam is less dense than a brick. It is defined as mass per unit volume

density = mass/volume

d = 100/20

d = 5 g/cm3

So, density of sample is 5 g/cm3

The speed of an electromagnetic wave traveling in a transparent nonmagnetic substance is v = 1/ κμ0ε0 , where κ is the dielectri
vladimir1956 [14]

Answer:

v=2.24\times 10^{8}\ m/s

Explanation:

Given that,

The speed of an electromagnetic wave traveling in a transparent nonmagnetic substance is given by :

v=\dfrac{1}{\sqrt{k\mu_o\epsilon_o}}

Where

k is the dielectric constant of the substance.

v is the speed of light in water

c=\dfrac{1}{\sqrt{1.78\times 4\pi \times 10^{-7}\times 8.85\times 10^{-12}}}

v=2.24\times 10^{8}\ m/s

So, the speed of light in water is 2.24\times 10^{8}\ m/s
