Answer:

5.634 N rightwards

Explanation:

qo = - 3 x 10^-7 C

q1 = - 9 x 10^-6 C

q2 = 10 x 10^-6 C

r1 = 7 cm = 0.07 m

r2 = 20 cm = 0.2 m

The force on test charge due to q1 is F1 which is acting towards right

According to the Coulomb's law

F_{1}=\frac{Kq_{1}q_{0}}{r_{1}^{2}}

F1 = (9 x 10^9 x 9 x 10^-6 x 3 x 10^-7) / (0.07 x 0.07)

F1 = 4.959 N rightwards

The force on test charge due to q2 is F1 which is acting towards right

According to the Coulomb's law

F_{2}=\frac{Kq_{2}q_{0}}{r_{2}^{2}}

F2 = (9 x 10^9 x 10 x 10^-6 x 3 x 10^-7) / (0.2 x 0.2)

F2 = 0.675 N rightwards

Net force on the test charge

F = F1 + F2 = 4.959 + 0.675 = 5.634 N rightwards

What is necessary to designate a position? A. a reference point B. a direction C. fundamental units D. motion E. all of these
max2010maxim [7]

Answer:

E. all of these

Explanation:

The designation of a point in space all the points that necessary

- reference point

- a direction

- fundamental units

- a direction

- motion

all are necessary to designate a point in space. Hence option E is correct.

For example in simple harmonic motion we need to specify all the above factors of the object in order to designate the position of the object.
