Explanation:

Fluid gauge pressure is:

P = ρgh

where ρ is the fluid density and h is the depth of the fluid.

P = (1000 kg/m³) (9.8 m/s²) (1642 m)

P = 16,091,600 Pa

Rounded to four significant figures, the gauge pressure is 16.09 MPa.

Two tiny particles having charges of +5.00 μC and +7.00 μC are placed along the x-axis. The +5.00-µC particle is at x = 0.00 cm,

Liula [17]

Answer:

The third charged particle must be placed at x = 0.458 m = 45.8 cm

Explanation:

To solve this problem we apply Coulomb's law:

Two point charges (q₁, q₂) separated by a distance (d) exert a mutual force (F) whose magnitude is determined by the following formula:

$F = \frac{k*q_1*q_2}{d^2}$ Formula (1)

F: Electric force in Newtons (N)

K : Coulomb constant in N*m²/C²

q₁, q₂: Charges in Coulombs (C)

d: distance between the charges in meters (m)

Equivalence

1μC= 10⁻⁶C

1m = 100 cm

Data

K = 8.99 * 10⁹ N*m²/C²

q₁ = +5.00 μC = +5.00 * 10⁻⁶ C

q₂= +7.00 μC = +7.00 * 10⁻⁶ C

d₁ = x (m)

d₂ = 1-x (m)

Problem development

Look at the attached graphic.

We assume a positive charge q₃ so F₁₃ and F₂₃ are repulsive forces and must be equal so that the net force is zero:

We use formula (1) to calculate the forces F₁₃ and F₂₃

$F_{13} = \frac{k*q_1*q_3}{d_1^2}$

$F_{23} = \frac{k*q_2*q_3}{d_2^2}$

F₁₃ = F₂₃

$\frac{k*q_1*q_3}{d_1^2} = \frac{k*q_2*q_3}{d_2^2}$ We eliminate k and q₃ on both sides

$\frac{q_1}{d_1^2}= \frac{q_2}{d_2^2}$

$\frac{q_1}{x^2}=\frac{q_2}{(1-x)^2}$

$\frac{5*10^{-6}}{x^2}=\frac{7*10^{-6}}{(1-x)^2}$ We eliminate 10⁻⁶ on both sides

$(1-x)^2 = \frac{7}{5} x^2$

$1-2x+x^2=\frac{7}{5} x^2$

$5-10x+5x^2=7 x^2$

$2x^2+10x-5=0$

We solve the quadratic equation:

$x_1 = \frac{-b+\sqrt{b^2-4ac} }{2a} = \frac{-10+\sqrt{10^2-4*2*(-5)} }{2*2} = 0.458m$

$x_2 = \frac{-b-\sqrt{b^2-4ac} }{2a} = \frac{-10-\sqrt{10^2-4*2*(-5)} }{2*2} = -5.458m$

In the option x₂, F₁₃ and F₂₃ will go in the same direction and will not be canceled, therefore we take x₁ as the correct option since at that point the forces are in opposite way .

x = 0.458m = 45.8cm

The equation of a progressive

Juliette [100K]

Answer:

Amplitude = 0.02m

Frequency = 640 Hz

Wavelength, λ = 0.5m

v = 320 m/s

Explanation:

Given the wave equation :

y=0.02 sin2π/0.5 (320t - x) where x and y are in

meters and t is in second

Comparing the above relation with the general wave equation :

y(x, t) = Asin2π/λ(wt - kx)

The amplitude, A = 0.02

From the equation :

2π/0.5 = 2π/λ

λ = 0.5 m

320t = vt

Hence, v = 320 m/s

Recall :

v = fλ

320 = f * 0.5

f = 320 / 0.5

f = 640 Hz
