Answer:

a) E_T=134,484\frac{N}{C}\hat{i}+149954.66\frac{N}{C}\hat{j}

b) zero

Explanation:

a) To find the electric field at point C, you sum the contribution of the electric fields generated by the other two charges. The total electric field at C is given by:

E_T=E_1+E_2

E1: electric field of charge 1

E2: electric field of charge 2

It is necessary to calculate the x and y components of both E1 and E2. You take into account the direction of the fields based on the charge q1 and q2:

E_1=k\frac{q_1}{r_{1,3}}[cos\theta\hat{i}+sin\theta \hat{j}]\\\\E_2=k\frac{q_2}{r_{2,3}}[cos\phi\hat{i}-sin\phi \hat{j}]\\\\

r13: distance between charges 1 and 3

r12: charge between charges 2 and 3

k: Coulomb's constant = 8.98*10^9 Nm^2/C^2

Thus, you first calculate the distance r13 and r23, and also the angles:

r_{1,3}=3.00m\\\\r_{2,3}=\sqrt{(3.00m)^2+(4.00m)^2}=5.00m\\\\\theta=90\°\\\\\phi=tan^{-1}(\frac{4.00}{3.00})=53.13\°

Next, you replace the values of all parameters in order to calculate E1 and E2:

E_1=(8.98*10^9Nm^2/C^2)(\frac{3.30*10^{-4}C}{(3.00m)^2})\hat{j}\\\\E_1=329266.66\frac{N}{C}\\\\E_2=(8.98*10^9Nm^2/C^2)(\frac{6.24*10^{-4}C}{(5.00m)^2})[cos53.13\°\hat{i}-sin(53.13\°)\hat{j}]\\\\E_2=224140.8[0.6\hat{i}-0.8\hat{j}]=134484\hat{i}-179312\hat{j}

finally, you obtain for ET:

E_T=134,484\frac{N}{C}\hat{i}+(329266.66-179312)\frac{N}{C}\hat{j}\\\\E_T=134,484\frac{N}{C}\hat{i}+149954.66\frac{N}{C}\hat{j}

b) The x component of the force exerted by A on C is zero because there is only a vertial distance between them. Thus, there is only a y component force.

A block with a mass M = 4.85 kg is resting on a slide that has a curved surface. There is no friction. The speed of the block af
natali 33 [55]

Answer:

The correct option is a

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The mass of the block is  m =  4.84 \ kg

    The height of the vertical  drop is h =  19.6 \  m

Generally from the law of energy conservation , the potential energy at the top  of the slide is equal to the kinetic energy at the point after sliding this can be mathematically represented as

        PE  =  KE

i.e     m *  g  *   h   =  \frac{1}{2} *  m *  v^2

=>    gh  =  0.5 v^2

=>   v = \sqrt{\frac{9.8 *  19.6}{0.5 } }

=>    v = 19.6 \  m/s

A plane's average speed between two cities is 625 km/hr. If the trip takes 2.5 hours, how far does the plane fly?
Vladimir79 [104]

Answer: 1,562.5 Km

Explanation: If it takes one hour to travel 625 kilometers, then, in two and a half hours, you should travel 1,562.5 Kilometers because of 625x2.5=1562.5 kilometers
