Three equal point charges, each with charge 1.15 μCμC , are placed at the vertices of an equilateral triangle whose sides are of

length 0.700 mm . What is the electric potential energy UUU of the system? (Take as zero the potential energy of the three charges when they are infinitely far apart.) Use ϵ0ϵ0epsilon_0 = 8.85×10−12 C2N⋅m2C2N⋅m2 for the permittivity of free space.

Answer:

U=50.96J

Explanation:

The electrostatic potential energy for pair of charge is given by

U=1/4π∈₀×(q₁q₂/r)

Hence for a system of three charges the electrostatic potential energy can be found by adding up the potential energy for all possible pairs or charges.For three equal charges on the corners of an equilateral triangle,the electrostatic potential energy is given by:

U=1/4π∈₀×(q²/r)+1/4π∈₀×(q²/r)+1/4π∈₀×(q²/r)

U=3×1/4π∈₀×(q²/r)

Substitute given values

So

U=3\frac{1}{4\pi E_{o} }\frac{q^{2} }{r}\\  U=3\frac{1}{4\pi8.85*10^{-12} }\frac{(1.15*10^{-6}C )^{2} }{0.0007m}\\  U=50.96J

A gun has a muzzle speed of 90 meters per second. What angle of elevation should be used to hit an object 150 meters away? Negle
Artist 52 [7]

Answer:

θ₀ = 84.78° (OR) 5.22°

Explanation:

This situation can be treated as projectile motion. The parameters of this projectile motion are:

R = Range of Projectile = 150 m

V₀ = Launch Speed of Projectile = 90 m/s

g = 9.8 m/s²

θ₀ = Launch angle (OR) Angle of Elevation = ?

The formula for range of a projectile is given as:

R = V₀² Sin 2θ₀/g

Sin 2θ₀ = Rg/V₀²

Sin 2θ₀ = (150 m)(9.8 m/s²)/(90 m/s)²

2θ₀ = Sin⁻¹ (0.18)

θ₀ = 10.45°/2

<u>θ₀ = 5.22°</u>

Also, we know that for the same launch velocity the range will be same for complementary angles. Therefore, another possible value of angle is:

θ₀ = 90° - 5.22°

<u>θ₀ = 84.78°</u>

QUESTION 1 Linear Motion
Misha Larkins [42]

Answer:

48.51ms / 174.6 km/h

Explanation:

y = 1/2 x g x t^2         v = g x t          

when y = 120m

120 = 1/2 x 9.8 x t^2

t^2 = 24.49

t = 4.95s

when t = 4.95s

v = 9.8 x 4.95

v = 48.51 m/s = 174.6 km/h

I'd say its realistic. But I don't really know that sry
