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

LASIK eye surgery uses pulses of laser light to shave off tissue from the cornea, reshaping it. A typical LASIK laser emits a 1.
Fittoniya [83]

Answer:

143 kW

Explanation:

Given that

Diameter of the beam, d = 1 mm

Wavelength of the beam, λ = 193 nm

Time used by the pulse, t = 14 ns

Energy of the pulse, U = 2 mJ

Recall that Power can be mathematically calculated using the relation,

Power = Work Done / Time,

To solve this, we apply the formula

P = U / Δt

P = 2*10^-3 J / 14*10^-9 s

P = 142857 W

P = 143 kW

What is the definition of work when net force is parallel to the distance?
goldfiish [28.3K]
Work in general is given by W=F·d where F is the force vector and d is the displacement vector.  The dot symbol is the dot product which is a measure of how parallel two vectors are.  It can be replaced by the cosine of the angle between the two vectors and the vectors replaced by their magnitudes.  If F and d are parallel then the angle is zero and the cosine is unity.  So in this case work can be defined as the product of the magnitudes of the force and distance:
W=Fd

A parachutist of mass 100 kg falls from a height of 500 m. Under realistic conditions, she experiences air resistance. Based on
antoniya [11.8K]
Given:
mass: 100 kg
height: 500 m
1 kJ = 1000 J
gravity = 9.8 m/s²

velocity before impact: v = √2gh ; v = √2 * 9.8 m/s² * 500 m ; v = 98.99494 m/s

KE = 1/2 m v²
KE = 1/2 * 100 kg * (98.99494 m/s)²
KE = 490,000 J

Pls. see attachment.

Enter the expression
vlabodo [156]
I see the word "when..." kind of fading out at the end of the first line.
Whatever comes after it may be important.

If you're just supposed to copy the expression into the box,
then the problem is that you left the 'e' out of it.

I'm guessing that you're supposed to enter whatever the expression becomes
when either  N₀ or  ' t ' has some special value that's in the first line.

Just taking a wild guess here . . . . .

If it's  "Enter the expression ..... , when t=0 ." ,
then the correct answer in the box is     N₀  .

But that's just a wild guess.  As I pointed out, you cut off
the picture in the middle of the word 'when', and I've got
a hunch that there's something important after it.
