A positively charged particle Q1 = +35nC is held fixed at the origin. A second charge of mass m = 3.5ug is floating a distance d

= 35cm above charge Q1. The net force on Q2 is equal to zero.
a) Write an equation for the magnitude of charge Q2 in terms of the given variables.

b) Calculate the magnitude of Q2 in units of nanocoulombs

Answer:

Explanation:

Q1 = 35 nC = 35 x 10^-9 C

m = 3.5 micro gram = 3.5 x 10^-9 Kg

d  = 35 cm = 0.35 m

(a) The electrostatic force between the two charges is balanced by the weight of another charge.

F = m g

\frac{1}{4\pi \epsilon _{0}}\frac{Q_{1}Q_{2}}{d^{2}}=mg

Q_{2}=\frac{4\pi \epsilon _{0}mgd^{2}}{Q_{1}}

(b) By substituting the values

Q_{2}=\frac{3.5\times 10^{-9}\times 9.8\times 0.35\timees 0.35}{9\times 10^{9}\times 35\times 10^{9}}

Q2 = 13.34 x 10^-12 C

Q2 = 0.0134 nC

What is the purpose of using significant figures? How does it relate to accuracy, precision, resolution, and uncertainty?
Umnica [9.8K]

Answer:

#see solution for details

Explanation:

-Uncertainty refers to an estimate of the amount by which a result may differ from this value,

-Precision refers to how closely repeated measurements agree with each other.

-Accuracy refers to how closely a measured value agrees with the correct value.

-The number of significant figures is the number of digits believed to be correct by the person doing the measuring. Therefore, choosing the correct number of significant figures reduces the deviation from the point of accuracy/uncertainty or precision and thereby reducing margin of error in the ensuing calculations.

From a vantage point very close to the track at a stock car race, you hear the sound emitted by a moving car. You detect a frequ
V125BC [204]

Answer:

55.8 m/s

Explanation:

f = Actual frequency of sound emitted by car

f' = frequency observed when the car moves = (0.86)f

V = Speed of sound = 343 m/s

v = Speed of car

Frequency observed is given as

f' = \frac{Vf}{V+v}

(0.86) = \frac{(343)}{343 + v}\\(0.86) = \frac{(343)}{343 + v}\\294.98 + (0.86) v = 343 \\v = 55.8 ms^{-1}

The​ time, t, required to drive a fixed distance varies inversely as the​ speed, r. It takes 3 hr at a speed of 14 ​km/h to driv
kenny6666 [7]

Answer:

time taken with speed 23 km/h will be 1.8 hours or 1 hour 48 minutes

Explanation:

Given:

Time is inversely proportional to the speed

mathematically,

t ∝ (1/r)

let the proportionality constant be 'k'

thus,

t = k/r

therefore, for case 1

time = 3 hr

speed = 14 km/hr

3 = k/14

also,

for case 2

let the time be = t

r = 23 km/h

thus,

we have

t = k/23

on dividing equation 2 by 1

we get

\frac{t}{3}=\frac{k/23}{k/14}

or

t=\frac{14\times3}{23}

or

t = 1.8 hr = or 1 hour 48 minutes ( 0.8 hours × 60 minutes/hour = 48 minutes)

Veronica claims that she can throw a dart at a dartboard from a distance of 2 m and hit the 5 cm wide bullseye if she throws the
wariber [46]
First, find the amount of time for the dart to hit the board using this equation: t = d/v

t = 2 m/ 15 m/s = 0.133 s

Then, find the height the dart has fallen from its initial point using this equation: h = 0.5gt²

h = 0.5(9.81 m/s²)(0.133 s)² = 0.0872 m or 8.72 cm

Since the diameter of the bull's eye is only 5 cm, and you started at the same level of the top of the bull's eye, that means the maximum allowance would only be 5 cm. Since it exceeded to 8.72 cm, it means that <em>Veronica will not hit the bull's eye.</em>
