A mad scientist wants to collect massive amounts of charge on basketball sized aluminum balls. The scientist wants to place 6 C

on one ball and 14 C on another. However, the maximum force between the balls must be limited to 8000 N. At what distance must the balls be placed apart?

The distance between two basket ball sized aluminium balls is 9714 m.

Explanation:

Coulomb's law, or Coulomb's inverse-square law, is an experimental law of physics that quantifies the amount of force between two stationary, electrically charged particles. The electric force between charged bodies at rest is conventionally called electrostatic force or Coulomb force .

Coulomb's law formula => F = (k * Qb1 * Qb2)/r²

Given data :-

charge on ball 1 Qb1 = 6C

charge on ball 2 Qb2 = 14C

Force exerted F = 8000 N

k =  8.988 x 10^9 Nm²C−²(coulomb's constant).

substituting given values in the coulomb's formula

8000 = (( 8.988 x 10^9)*6*14)/r²

shifting r and 8000 to other sides

r² = (756 * 10^9)/8000

r = 9714 m.

Therefore the distance between two balls is r = 9714 m.

A plastic rod of length d = 1.5 m lies along the x-axis with its midpoint at the origin. The rod carries a uniform linear charge
Serga [27]

Answer:

Explanation:

Let the plastic rod extends from - L to + L .

consider a small length of dx on the rod on the positive x axis at distance x . charge on it =  λ dx where  λ is linear charge density .

It will create a field at point P on y -axis . Distance of point P

= √ x² + .15²

electric field at P due to small charged length

dE = k λ dx x  / (x² + .15² )

Its component along Y - axis

= dE cosθ where θ is angle between direction of field dE and y axis

= dE x .15 / √ x² + .15²

=  k λ dx  .15 / (x² + .15² )³/²

If we consider the same strip along the x axis at the same position  on negative x axis , same result will be found . It is to be noted that the component of field in perpendicular to y axis will cancel out each other . Now for electric field due to whole rod at point p , we shall have to integrate the above expression from - L to + L

E = ∫  k λ  .15  / (x² + .15² )³/² dx

=  k λ  x L / .15 √( L² / 4 + .15² )

hodyreva [135]

Answer:

s = vcos(x)t

50 = 25cos(45)t

cos(45)t = 2

t = 2/cos(45) = 2sqrt(2)

h = vsin(x)t + gt^2/2

h = 25sin(45)*2sqrt(2) - 4.9*8

h = 10.8 metres

34kurt

Answer:

    \frac{h_{liquid} }{ h_{body} } = 5/9

Explanation:

This is an exercise that we can solve using Archimedes' principle which states that the thrust is equal to the weight of the desalted liquid.

         B = ρ_liquid  g V_liquid

let's write the translational equilibrium condition

         B - W = 0

let's use the definition of density

        ρ_body = m / V_body

        m = ρ_body  V_body

        W = ρ_body  V_body  g

we substitute

          ρ_liquid  g  V_liquid = ρ_body  g  V_body

          \frac{\rho_{body}   }{\rho_{liquid} } } =  \frac{V_{liquid}   }{V_{body} } }

In the problem they indicate that the ratio of densities is 5/9, we write the volume of the bar

          V = A h_bogy

Thus

          \frac{V_{liquid} }{V_{1body} } = \frac{ h_{liquid} }{h_{body} }

we substitute

           5/9 = \frac{h_{liquid} }{ h_{body} }
