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

A flute player hears four beats per second when she compares her note to a 523 HzHz tuning fork (the note C). She can match the
laiz [17]

Answer:

527 Hz

Solution:

As per the question:

Beat frequency of the player, \Delta f = 4\ beats/s

Frequency of the tuning fork, f = 523 Hz

Now,

The initial frequency can be calculated as:

\Delta f = f - f_{i}

f_{i} = f \pm \Delta f

when

f_{i} = f + \Delta f = 523 + 4 = 527 Hz

when

f_{i} = f - \Delta f = 523 - 4 = 519 Hz

But we know that as the length of the flute increases the frequency decreases

Hence, the initial frequency must be 527 Hz

Sayid made a chart listing data of two colliding objects. A 5-column table titled Collision: Two Objects Stick Together with 2 r
Alborosie

Answer:

6 m/s is the missing final velocity

Explanation:

From the data table we extract that there were two objects (X and Y) that underwent an inelastic collision, moving together after the collision as a new object with mass equal the addition of the two original masses, and a new velocity which is the unknown in the problem).

Object X had a mass of 300 kg, while object Y had a mass of 100 kg.

Object's X initial velocity was positive (let's imagine it on a horizontal axis pointing to the right) of 10 m/s. Object Y had a negative velocity (imagine it as pointing to the left on the horizontal axis) of -6 m/s.

We can solve for the unknown, using conservation of momentum in the collision: Initial total momentum = Final total momentum (where momentum is defined as the product of the mass of the object times its velocity.

In numbers, and calling P_{xi} the initial momentum of object X and P_{yi} the initial momentum of object Y, we can derive the total initial momentum of the system: P_{total}_i=P_{xi}+P_{yi}= 300*10 \frac{kg*m}{s} -100*6\frac{kg*m}{s} =\\=(3000-600 )\frac{kg*m}{s} =2400 \frac{kg*m}{s}

Since in the collision there is conservation of the total momentum, this initial quantity should equal the quantity for the final mometum of the stack together system (that has a total mass of 400 kg):

Final momentum of the system: M * v_f=400kg * v_f

We then set the equality of the momenta (total initial equals final) and proceed to solve the equation for the unknown(final velocity of the system):

2400 \frac{kg*m}{s} =400kg*v_f\\\frac{2400}{400} \frac{m}{s} =v_f\\v_f=6 \frac{m}{s}
