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.

mart [117]
That's "displacement". It only depends on the beginning and ending locations, and doesn't care about the route between them.

Consider an ideal gas at 27.0 degrees Celsius and 1.00 atmosphere pressure. Imagine the molecules to be uniformly spaced, with e
My name is Ann [436]

To solve the exercise it is necessary to keep in mind the concepts about the ideal gas equation and the volume in the cube.

However, for this case the Boyle equation will not be used, but the one that corresponds to the Boltzmann equation for ideal gas, in this way it is understood that

PV =NkT

Where,

N = Number of molecules

k = Boltzmann constant

V = Volume

T = Temperature

P = Pressure

Our values are given as,

N = 1

k = 1.38*10^{-23}J/K

T = 27\°C = 27\°C + 273 = 300K

P = 1atm = 101325Pa

Rearrange the equation to find V we have,

V = \frac{NkT}{P}

V = \frac{1(1.38*10^{-23})(300K)}{101325Pa}

V = 4.0858*10^{-26}m^3

We know that length of a cube is given by

V = L^3

Therefore the Length would be given as,

L = V^{1/3}

L = (4.0858*10^{-26})^{1/3}

L = 3.445*10^{-9}m

Therefore each length of the cube is 3.44nm

A person weighing 785 newtons on the surface of Earth would weigh 298 newtons on the surface of Mars.
rodikova [14]

Answer:

The gravitational field strength on the surface of Mars = 3.72 m/s²

Explanation:

Gravitational Field Strength: This can be defined as the force per unit mass which is exerted at that point. its direction is the force exerted on a mass in a gravitational field. The S.I unit of gravitational field strength is m/s²

Mathematically, Gravitational field is represented as,

g = F/m ..................... Equation 1.

m = F/g ..................... Equation 2.

Where g = gravitational Field Strength, F = force on the mass, m = mass of the body.

From the question,

Note: That The mass of the object is constant both on the surface of the earth and on the surface of Mars.

On the Surface of the earth,

Given: F = 785 N, g = 9.8 m/s²

Substituting this values into equation 2,

m = 785/9.8

m = 80.10 kg.

On the surface of Mars.

Given: m = 80.10 kg, F = 298.

Substituting into equation 2

g = 298/80.1

g = 3.72 m/s²

Thus the gravitational field strength on the surface of Mars = 3.72 m/s²

If a scale of the solar system was built where 1 mm equaled 1 mile, could the model be practically built in a city?
Y_Kistochka [10]
No, it couldn't be.
On that scale, Neptune would be almost 1,740 MILES from the sun.
ON THAT SCALE !
