A third point charge q3 is now positioned halfway between q1 and q2. The net force on q2 now has a magnitude of F2,net = 14.413

natima [27]

Answer:

The value of charge q₃ is 40.46 μC.

Explanation:

Given that.

Magnitude of net force $F=14.413\ N$

Suppose a point charge q₁ = -3 μC is located at the origin of a co-ordinate system. Another point charge q₂ = 7.7 μC is located along the x-axis at a distance x₂ = 8.2 cm from q₁. Charge q₂ is displaced a distance y₂ = 3.1 cm in the positive y-direction.

We need to calculate the distance

Using Pythagorean theorem

$r=\sqrt{x_{2}^2+y_{2}^2}$

Put the value into the formula

$r=\sqrt{(8.2\times10^{-2})^2+(3.1\times10^{-2})^2}$

$r=0.0876\ m$

We need to calculate the magnitude of the charge q₃

Using formula of net force

$F_{12}=kq_{2}(\dfrac{q_{3}}{r_{3}^2}+\dfrac{q_{1}}{r_{1}^2})$

Put the value into the formula

$14.413=9\times10^{9}\times7.7\times10^{-6}(\dfrac{q_{3}}{(0.0438)^2}+\dfrac{-3\times10^{-6}}{(0.0876)^2})$

$(\dfrac{q_{3}}{(4.38\times10^{-2})^2}+\dfrac{-3\times10^{-6}}{(0.0876)^2})=\dfrac{14.413}{9\times10^{9}\times7.7\times10^{-6}}$

$\dfrac{q_{3}}{(0.0438)^2}=207\times10^{-4}+3.909\times10^{-4}$

$q_{3}=0.0210909\times(0.0438)^2$

$q_{3}=40.46\times10^{-6}\ C$

$q_{3}=40.46\ \mu C$

Hence, The value of charge q₃ is 40.46 μC.

A ball rolls from 10 m to -25 m in 2.5 seconds. What was<br> its average velocity?<br> (Units = m/s)

marissa [1.9K]

Answer:

v = -14 m/s

Explanation:

Given that,

Initial location of the ball, X₁ = 10 m

Final position of the ball, X₂ = -25 m

Time taken to travel is, t = 2.5 s

The average velocity of the ball is given by the formula,

V = X₂ - X₁ / t m/s

Substituting the values in the above equation,

V = -25 - 10 / 2.5

= -14 m/s

The negative sign in the velocity indicates that ball rolls in the opposite direction.

Hence, the average velocity of the ball is v = -14 m/s
