That's an urban legend that's been around for a long time.
It was tested on "Mythbusters".  The conclusion was that
it would sting pretty good, and maybe raise a lump, but
it would never penetrate the skull, and it couldn't kill.

A charge 3q is at the origin, and a charge −2q is on the positive x axis at x=a. part a where on the x-axis would you place a th
Mila [183]

Answer:

x = a + \frac{a\sqrt2}{\sqrt3 - \sqrt2}

Explanation:

Position of charge 3q is x = 0

position of charge -2q is x = a

so here we know that

when two charges are of opposite nature then the electric field will be zero on the line joining the two charges at the position near to smaller magnitude charge

So here the electric field will be zero if the field due to 3q is counterbalanced by field due to -2q

so here we can say

\frac{k(3q)}{(r+a)^2} + \frac{k(-2q)}{r^2} = 0

\frac{3}{(r + a)^2} = \frac{2}{r^2}

\frac{r+a}{r} = \sqrt{\frac{3}{2}}

1 + \frac{a}{r} =\sqrt{\frac{3}{2}}

\frac{a}{r} = \frac{\sqrt3 - \sqrt2}{\sqrt2}

so we will have

r = \frac{a\sqrt2}{\sqrt3 - \sqrt2}

so the x coordinate of this position is given as

x = a + \frac{a\sqrt2}{\sqrt3 - \sqrt2}

Consider a particle with initial velocity v⃗ that has magnitude 12.0 m/s and is directed 60.0 degrees above the negative x axis.
kramer

Answer:

  v_x = -6\ m/s

Explanation:

initial velocity

magnitude of velocity, v = 12 m/s

angle made of velocity with negative x-axis,θ = 60°

We need to calculate x- component of v

  v_x = v cos \theta

velocity is in negative x-direction, v = -12 m/s

now,

  v_x = -12\times cos 60^0

  v_x = -12\times 0.5

  v_x = -6\ m/s

Hence, the velocity x-component is equal to -6 m/s.

What will be the velocity of body in horizontal motion of the body in the air?
satela [25.4K]

Answer: Projectiles travel with a parabolic trajectory due to the influence of gravity. There are no horizontal forces acting upon projectiles and thus no horizontal acceleration, The horizontal velocity of a projectile is constant (a never changing in value.
