Particle q1 has a positive 6 µc charge. particle q2 has a positive 2 µc charge. they are located 0.1 meters apart. recall that k

Dmitrij [34]

(a) Force between the two charges

The electrostatic force between the two charges is given by:

$F=k\frac{q_1 q_2}{r^2}$

where k is the Coulomb's constant, q1 and q2 the two charges, r their separation.

In this problem:

$q_1 =6 \mu C=6 \cdot 10^{-6}C$

$q_2=2 \mu C=2 \cdot 10^{-6}C$

$r=0.1 m$

Substituting into the equation, we find

$F=(8.99 \cdot 10^9 Nm^2C^{-2})\frac{(6 \cdot 10^{-6}C)(2 \cdot 10^{-6}C)}{(0.1 m)^2}=10.8 N$

(b) direction of particle q2

Particle q2 wants to move in the direction of the force acting on it. The direction of the force depends on the relative sign of the two charges: like charges attract each other, opposite charges repel each other. In this case, the two charges are both positive, so they repel each other and q2 tends to move away from particle q1.

Eac of the two Straight Parallel Lines Each of two very long, straight, parallel lines carries a positive charge of 24.00 m C/m.

Cloud [144]

Answer:

The magnitude of the electric field at a point equidistant from the lines is $4.08\times10^{5}\ N/C$

Explanation:

Given that,

Positive charge = 24.00 μC/m

Distance = 4.10 m

We need to calculate the angle

Using formula of angle

$\theta=\sin^{-1}(\dfrac{\dfrac{d}{2}}{2d})$

$\theta=\sin^{-1}(\dfrac{1}{4})$

$\theta=14.47^{\circ}$

We need to calculate the magnitude of the electric field at a point equidistant from the lines

Using formula of electric field

$E=\dfrac{2k\lambda}{r}\times2\cos\theat$

Put the value into the formula

$E=\dfrac{2\times9\times10^{9}\times24.00\times2\times10^{-6}\cos14.47}{2.05}$

$E=408094.00\ N/C$

$E=4.08\times10^{5}\ N/C$

Hence, The magnitude of the electric field at a point equidistant from the lines is $4.08\times10^{5}\ N/C$

A cart is pulled by a force of 250 N at an angle of 35° above the horizontal. The cart accelerates at 1.4 m/s2. The free-body di

Vikki [24]

Answer:

Mass of the cart = 146 kg

Explanation:

A cart is pulled by a force of 250 N at an angle of 35° above the horizontal.

The cart accelerates at 1.4 m/s² horizontally.

Horizontal force = Fcosθ = 250 cos35° = 204.79N

We have F = ma

Substituting

204.79 = m x 1.4

m = 146.28 kg = 146 kg

Mass of the cart = 146 kg

Which forces are shown on a free body diagram?

notsponge [240]

Answer:

What is a Free Body Diagram?

The free body diagram helps you understand and solve static and dynamic problem involving forces. It is a diagram including all forces acting on a given object without the other object in the system. You need to first understand all the forces acting on the object and then represent these force by arrows in the direction of the force to be drawn.
