Two identical charges,2.0m apart,exert forces of magnitude 4.0 N on each other.What is the value of either charge?

storchak [24]

Answer:

$\large \boxed{42\, \mu \text{C}}$$

Explanation:

The formula for the force exerted between two charges is

$F=k \dfrac{ q_1q_2}{r^2}$

where k is the Coulomb constant.

The charges are identical, so we can write the formula as

$F=k\dfrac{q^{2}}{r^2}$

$\begin{array}{rcl}\text{4.0 N}& = & 8.988 \times 10^{9}\text{ N$\cdot$m$^{2}$C$^{-2}$} \times \dfrac{q^{2}}{\text{(2.0 m)}^{2}}\\\\4.0 & = & 2.25 \times 10^{9}\text{ C$^{-2}$} \times q^{2}\\\\q^{2} & = & \dfrac{4.0}{2.25 \times 10^{9}\text{ C$^{-2}$}}\\\\& = & 1.78 \times 10^{-9} \text{ C}^{2}\\q & = & 4.2 \times 10^{-5} \text{ C}\\& = & 42\, \mu \text{C}\\\end{array}\\\text{Each charge has a value of $\large \boxed{\mathbf{42\, \mu }\textbf{C}}$}$

Nathan is walking to the store and sees a snake slithering across the sidewalk. He jumps over it with an initial vertical veloci

Travka [436]

Answer:

$0.62\:\mathrm{s}$

Explanation:

Since the universal SI unit for velocity is meters/second, let's convert ft/s to m/s:

$10\:\mathrm{ft/s}=3.048\:\mathrm{m/s}$

We can use the following kinematics equation to solve this question:

$v_f=v_i+at$

What we know:

The initial velocity, $v_i$ , is $3.048\:\mathrm{m/s}$

(physics concept) The final velocity must be equal in magnitude but opposite in direction to the initial velocity ( $v_f=-3.048\:\mathrm{m/s}$ )
Acceleration, $a$ , is acceleration due to gravity at about $9.8\:\mathrm{m/s}$

Solving for $t$ :

$-3.048=3.048+(-9.8t),\\-6.096=-9.8t,\\t=\frac{-6.096}{-9.8}\approx \boxed{0.62\:\mathrm{s}}$

A key falls from a bridge that is 44 m above the water. It falls directly into a model boat, moving with constant velocity, that

Lady_Fox [76]

The time $t$ it takes for the key to fall 44 m is

$44\,\mathrm m=\dfrac12\left(9.8\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s^2}\right)t^2\implies t=3.0\,\mathrm s$

(notice I'm taking the downward direction to be positive)

The boat, moving at a presumably constant speed, then has 3.0 s to travel 19 m to the point of impact, which means its speed must be

$v=\dfrac{19\,\mathrm m}{3.0\,\mathrm s}=6.3\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s}$

If an object is accelerating to the right , then net force on the object must be directed towards the right ! True Or False ?

vichka [17]

Not so fast.

I think you're using 'accelerating' to mean 'speeding up', but you really need
to be more careful with it. "Acceleration" means ANY change in speed OR
direction.

If an object's speed to the left is decreasing, or its speed to the right is
increasing, then the net force on the object must be directed towards
the right.

If an object is moving with constant speed in a circular path, then it's
constantly accelerating, because its direction is constantly changing.
The force on it is always directed towards the center of the circle, so
there's one point on the path where the force is directed straight to the right.
