A charge 3q is at the origin, and a charge −2q is on the positive x axis at x=a. part a where on the x-axis would you place a th
Mila [183]

Answer:

x = a + \frac{a\sqrt2}{\sqrt3 - \sqrt2}

Explanation:

Position of charge 3q is x = 0

position of charge -2q is x = a

so here we know that

when two charges are of opposite nature then the electric field will be zero on the line joining the two charges at the position near to smaller magnitude charge

So here the electric field will be zero if the field due to 3q is counterbalanced by field due to -2q

so here we can say

\frac{k(3q)}{(r+a)^2} + \frac{k(-2q)}{r^2} = 0

\frac{3}{(r + a)^2} = \frac{2}{r^2}

\frac{r+a}{r} = \sqrt{\frac{3}{2}}

1 + \frac{a}{r} =\sqrt{\frac{3}{2}}

\frac{a}{r} = \frac{\sqrt3 - \sqrt2}{\sqrt2}

so we will have

r = \frac{a\sqrt2}{\sqrt3 - \sqrt2}

so the x coordinate of this position is given as

x = a + \frac{a\sqrt2}{\sqrt3 - \sqrt2}

Nearly all conventional piston engines have flywheels on them to smooth out engine vibrations caused by the thrust of individual
Artyom0805 [142]

Answer:

This is because, the flywheel has a very large moment of Inertia and hence sudden piston torques have negligible effect on the flywheel, but every piston combined has a significant torque. This smoothens out the vibrations.

A 2 kg rock is at the edge of a cliff 20 meters above a lake The rock becomes loose and falls toward the water below. Calculate
natima [27]

Answer:

The potential energy (P.E) at the top is 392 J

The kinetic energy (K.E) at the top is 0 J

The potential energy (P.E) at the halfway point is 196 J.

The kinetic energy (K.E) at the halfway point is 196 J.

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the rock, m = 2 kg

height of the cliff, h = 20 m

speed of the rock at the halfway point, v = 14 m/s

The potential energy (P.E) and kinetic energy (K.E) when its at the top;

P.E = mgh

P.E = (2)(9.8)(20)

P.E= 392 J

K.E = ¹/₂mv²

where;

v is velocity of the rock at the top of the cliff = 0

K.E = ¹/₂(2)(0)²

K.E = 0

The potential energy (P.E) and kinetic energy (K.E) at the halfway point;

P.E = mg(¹/₂h)

P.E = (2)(9.8)(¹/₂ x 20)

P.E = 196 J

K.E = ¹/₂mv²

where;

v is velocity of the rock at the halfway point = 14 m/s

K.E = ¹/₂(2)(14)²

K.E = 196 J.

What is the force required to produce a 1.4 Nm torque when applied to a door at a 60.0º angle and 0.40 m from the hinge?
Marysya12 [62]
Refer to the diagram shown below.

The component of the applied force perpendicular to the door is
F * sin(60°) = 0.866F N

Because the moment arm is 0.40 m, the torque is
(0.866F N)*(0.4 m) = 0.3464F N-m

This torque is equal to 1.4 N-m, therefore
0.3464F = 1.4
F = 4.04 N

Answer: 4.04 N
