Answer:
Explanation:
The unknown charge can not remain in between the charge given because force on the middle charge will act in the same direction due to both the remaining charges.
So the unknown charge is somewhere on negative side of x axis . Its charge will be negative . Let it be - Q and let it be at distance - x on x axis.
force on it due to rest of the charges will be equal and opposite so
k3q Q / x² =k 8q Q / (L+x)²
8x² = 3 (L+x)²
2√2 x = √3 (L+x)
2√2 x - √3 x = √3 L
x(2√2 - √3 ) = √3 L
x = √3 L / (2√2 - √3 )
Let us consider the balancing force on 3q
force on it due to -Q and -8q will be equal
kQ . 3q / x² = k3q 8q / L²
Q = 8q (x² / L²)
so charge required = - 8q (x² / L²)
and its distance from x on negative x side = √3 L / (2√2 - √3 )
Answer:
7.644 feet
Explanation:
Free fall means that an object is falling freely with no forces acting upon it except gravity, a defined constant, g = -9.8 m/s2. The distance the object falls, or height, h, is 1/2 gravity x the square of the time falling.
Answer:
K = ρL²g
Explanation:
Consider L as the length of the raft inside the water when the raft is displaced through additional distance y;
Then:
F = upthrust ( restoring force) = weight of the liquid displaced.

where;
A = L²

F = ky.
Then,


Divide both sides by y
K = ρL²g
Explanation:
The shorter wavelength electromagnetic waves from sun are absorbed by earth material in form of short wavelength and the radiated wavelength are longer ones. Also higher energy waves are of shorter wavelength and lower energy waves have longer wavelength. So, they are absorbed as short wavelength and radiated back as long wavelength.
