Answer:

x coordinate = -1.66 m

y coordinate is = -0.825m

Explanation:

Suppose z be the distance form the first charge and z + sqrt(1^2 +.5^2) be the distance from the second So z + sqrt(1+.25) = z + 1.12

We have k*2.0x10^-6/s^2 = k*6x10^-6/(s+1.12)^2

0.0356s^2 -0.019s-0.0897=0  

s=1.876m

The angle of the line between the two charges is arctan(.5/1) = 26.6o

x coordinate = -1.876*cos(26.6) = -1.66m

y coordinate is -1.876*sin(26.6) = -0.825m

Suppose there is a uniform magnetic field, B, pointing into the page (so your index finger will point into the page). If the vel
Naily [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

We shall show all given data in vector form and calculate the direction of force with the help of following formula

force F = q ( v x B )

q is charge , v is velocity and B is magnetic field.

Given B = - Bk ( i is  right  , j is  upwards  and k is straight up the page  )

v = v j

F = q ( vj x - Bk )

= -Bqvi

The direction is towards left .

a ) If velocity is down

v = - v j

F = q ( - vj x - bk )

= qvB i

Direction is right .

b ) v = v i

F = q ( vi x - Bk )

= qvB j

force is upwards

c ) v = - vi

F = q ( -vi x - Bk )

= -qvBj

force is downwards

d ) v = - v k

F = q( - vk x -Bk  )

= 0

No force will be created

e ) v =  v k

F = q(  vk x -Bk  )

= 0

No force will be created

If a ball is thrown into the air with a velocity of 36 ft/s, its height (in feet) after t seconds is given by y = 36t − 16t2. fi
Juliette [100K]
Height (y) = 36t - 16t^2, where t = time in seconds (s).
Our height (y) after 1s = 36(1) - 16(1)^2
y = 36 - 16 = 20 ft
So it reached a height of 20 ft during that 1 second, which means that at that 1 second it had a velocity of 20ft/s, since v = d(distance)/t = 20ft/1s

When you boil potatoes, will your cooking time be reduced with vigorously boiling water instead of gently boiling water? (Direct
lara [203]

Answer:

The cooling time will not be reduced.

Explanation:

The time to cook is virtually the same in both types, vigorously and gently boiling water.

The reason cooking of spaghetti  calls for vigorously boiling water is to keep the pasta agitated so that they do not stick to one another.

The temperature of boiling water is the same for both vigorously boiling water and gently boiling water, therefore there will be little time difference in when the potatoes will cook when it is done with vigorously boiling water than when it is cooked with gently boiling water.

However cooking potatoes in vigorously boiling water may cause the water to dry up on time and the potatoes get burnt.
