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 horse moves a sleigh 1.00 kilometers by applying a horizontal 2000 Newton force on its harness for 45 minutes. what is the pow
tatyana61 [14]
--  If 2,000 newtons of force were applied through a distance of 1,000 meters,
then 2,000,000 newton-meters = 2,000,000 joules of work were done.

-- 45 minutes = (45 x 60) = 2,700 seconds

-- Power = (work) / (time) = (2,000,000 j) / (2,700 s) = <u>740.74 watts</u>

Interestingly, that's almost exactly 1 horsepower.  (0.99295... of 746 watts)

Sam, whose mass is 75 kg, straps on his skis and starts down a 50-m-high, 20 frictionless slope. A strong headwind exerts a hori
LenaWriter [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

Sam mass=75kg

Height is 50m

20° frictionless slope

Horizontal force on Sam is 200N

According to the work energy theorem, the net work done on Sam will be equal to his change in kinetic energy.

Therefore

Wg - Ww =∆K.E

Note initial the body was at rest at top of the slope.

Then, ∆K.E is K.E(final) - K.E(initial)

K.E Is given as ½mv²

Since initial velocity is zero then, K.E(initial ) is zero

Therefore, ∆K.E=½mVf²

Wg is work done by gravity and it is given by using P.E formulas

Wg=mgh

Wg=75×9.8×50

Wg=36750J

Ww is work done by wind and it's is given by using formulae for work

Work=force × distance

Ww=horizontal force × horizontal distance

Using Trig.

TanX=opposite/adjacent

Tan20=h/x

x=h/tan20

x=50/tan20

x=137.37m

Then,

Ww=F×x

Ww=200×137.37

We=27474J

Now applying the formula

Wg - Ww =∆K.E

36750 - 27474 =½×75×Vf²

9276=37.5Vf²

Vf²=9275/37.5

Vf²= 247.36

Vf=√247.36

Vf=15.73m/s

⃗ has the magnitude 15 cm and it makes and angle 40° with positive X axis. Calculate the X and Y component of ⃗.
topjm [15]

The X component of the vector is 11.5 while the Y component is 9.6.

<h3>What are the components of a vector?</h3>

We know that a vector must posses both magnitude and direction. Now the vector could be resolved into the vertical and the horizontal components of the mixture.

In resolving this vector;

X component = 15 cm cos 40 degrees = 11.5

Y component =  15 cm sin 40 degrees = 9.6

Thus the X component of the vector is 11.5 while the Y component is 9.6.
