To practice Problem-Solving Strategy 22.1 for electric force problems. Two charged particles, with charges q1=qq1=q and q2=4qq2=

4q, are located on the x axis separated by a distance of 2.00cm2.00cm . A third charged particle, with charge q3=qq3=q, is placed on the x axis such that the magnitude of the force that charge 1 exerts on charge 3 is equal to the force that charge 2 exerts on charge 3.Find the position of charge 3 when qqq = 2.00 nCnC .

Answer:

x₂ = 0.01336

Explanation:

In this exercise we use the translational equilibrium equation

          F₁₃ - F₂₃ = 0

          F₁₃ = F₂₃

at the point where charge 3 is placed the two electric forces have the same magnitude

let us use the expression of Coulomb's law for the electric force

         F₁₃ = ka q₁ q₃ / r₁₃²

         F₂₃ = ka q₂ q₃ / r₂₃²

we substitute

         k q₁ q₃ / r₁₃² = k q₂ q₃ / r₂₃²

now imprescriptibility suppose that particle 1 is at the origin of the coordinate system, particle 2 is at a distance d = 2.00cm = 2 10-2 m, therefore let's call the distance from particle 1 to particle 3 as x

            r₁₃ = x

            R₂₃ = d-x

In the exercise we are given the charges for the particle1 q1 = q, for the particle 2 the charge is q2 = 4q the distance between them is d = 2.00cm = 0.0200 m, the value of q = 2.00 nC = 2.00 10⁻⁹ C

let's substitute these values

              q₁ / x₂ = q₂ / (d-x)²

let's clear x

              (d-x)² = q₂ / q₁    x²

              d² - 2dx + x₂ = q₂ /q₁   x²

               x² (1-q₂ / q₁) - 2d x + d² = 0

               

let's substitute the values ​​and solve the quadratic equation

              x² (1 - 4q / q) - 2 0.02 x + 0.02² = 0

              -3 x² - 0.04 x + 0.0004 = 0

               

                x² + 0.0133 x - 0.0001333 = 0

               x = [-0.0133 ±√(0.0133² + 4 0.00013333)] / 2

                x = [-0.0133 + - 0.026664] /2

              x₁ = -0.01998 m

              x₂ = 0.01336 m

Since load 3 must be between charged 1 and 2 the correct answer is

x₂ = 0.01336

Answer:

The separation distance between the parallel planes of an atom is hc/2sinθ(EK - EL)

Explanation:

The relationship between energy and wavelength is expressed below:

E = hc/λ

λ = hc/EK - EL

Considering the condition of Bragg's law:

2dsinθ = mλ

For the first order Bragg's law of reflection:

2dsinθ = (1)λ

2dsinθ = hc/EK - EL

d = hc/2sinθ(EK - EL)

Where 'd' is the separation distance between the parallel planes of an atom, 'h' is the Planck's constant, 'c' is the velocity of light, θ is the angle of reflection, 'EK' is the energy of the K shell and 'EL' is the energy of the K shell.

Therefore, the separation distance between the parallel planes of an atom is hc/2sinθ(EK - EL)

ollegr [7]

Answer:

The cork moves up and down.

Explanation:

The cork moves up and down because of the waves produce due to tapping the surface of water. The cork experience movement due to placed on the water surface so when the wave passes through the medium by tapping of water, movement of cork also occur. Cork has high volume and lower mass so it floats on the water surface and experience movement due to waves.
