Answer:

a)   x = ⅔ d , b) the charge must be negative, c) Q

Explanation:

a) In this exercise the force is electric between the charges, we are asked that the system of the three charges is in equilibrium, we use Newton's second law. Balance is on the third load that we are placing

         ∑ F = 0

        -F₁₂ + F₂₃ = 0

         F₁₂ = F₂₃

         

let's replace the values

        k Q Q / r₁₂² = k Q 4Q / r₂₃²

            Q² / r₁₂² = 4 Q² / r₂₃²

suppose charge 3 is placed at point x

        r₁₂ = x

        r₂₃ = d-x

             

we substitute

             1 / x² = 4 / (d-x) 2

             1 / x = 2 / (d-x)

             x = 2 (x-d)

             x = 2x -2d

            3x = 2d

              x = ⅔ d

b) The sign of the charge must be negative, to have an attractive charge on the two initial charges

c)  Q

1. A car travels at 55 km/h for 6.0 hours. How far does it travel?
Veronika [31]

Answer:

330 km

55*6= 330 km. An easy formula for this is multiplying time with speed.

Explanation:

330 kilometros

55 * 6 = 330 km. Una fórmula fácil para esto es multiplicar el tiempo por la velocidad.

Each of the four expansion models (recollapsing, critical, coasting, and accelerating) predict different ages for the universe,
cupoosta [38]

Answer:

This is because the age of the universe is determined by the pace of expansion in the past, and each model forecasts a different pace.

Explanation:

The age of the universe is determined by the pace of expansion in the past, and each model forecasts a different pace.

This is due to the fact that the expansion rate in the coasting model is constant and never changes. Because the cosmos is growing faster now than during the old days, recollapsing and critical models give shorter ages. According to the accelerating model, the universe is growing at a slower rate currently than in the past, implying an older age.
