Answer:

Electron must be placed at a distance of 2.69 ×10^5 m in the direction of positive y-axis.

Explanation:

Charge on electron = e = -1.6 × 10^-19 C

Mass of electron = m = 9.1 × 10^-31 kg

Charge at origin = q = -0.45 nC  

According to given condition in the question:

                       Fe = Fg

                   kq1q2/r^2 = mg  

(9 × 10^9)( -1.6 × 10^-19)( -0.45n)/r^2 = (9.1 × 10^-31)(9.8)

                    r = √7.2 ×10^10

                    r = 2.69 ×10^5 m      in the positive y-axis direction

Density is the best property to use, as while multiple different metals could create cubes with the same color, mass, or volume, no different metal could create a cube with the same mass and volume.  Density is based on mass and volume, and as a result no two different metals will have the same density.

A wheel starts from rest and rotates with constant angular acceleration to reach an angular speed of 11.1 rad/s in 2.99 s.(a) fi
elena55 [62]
The angular acceleration of a rotating object is given by
\alpha =  \frac{\omega_f - \omega_i}{\Delta t}
where
\omega_f is the final angular speed of the object
\omega_i is its initial angular speed
\Delta t is the time taken to accelerate

For the wheel in our problem, \omega_f=11.1 rad/s, \omega_i = 0 and \Delta t=2.99 s, so its angular acceleration is
\alpha= \frac{11.1 rad/s-0}{2.99 s}=3.71 rad/s^2

What is the amount of charge a capacitor can store per volt of potential difference?
sladkih [1.3K]

The amount of charge a capacitor can store per volt of potential difference is called the capacitance of the capacitor.

<h3>What is the capacitance?</h3>

The capacitance has to do with the amount of charge that is stored by a capacitor. We know that a capacitor is a device that can be used to store electric charges. We have in it, two capacitors separated by a dielectric material.

Hence, the amount of charge a capacitor can store per volt of potential difference is called the capacitance of the capacitor.
