The point midway between the two charges is located 15.0 cm from one charge and 15.0 from the other charge. The electric field generated by each of the charges is
E=k_e  \frac{q}{r^2}
where
ke is the Coulomb's constant
Q is the value of the charge
r is the distance of the point at which we calculate the field from the charge (so, in this problem, r=15.0 cm=0.15 m).

Let's calculate the electric field generated by the first charge:
E_1 = (8.99 \cdot 10^9 Nm^2 C^{-2} ) \frac{+40.0 \cdot 10^{-9} C}{(0.15 m)^2}=1.6 \cdot 10^4 N/C

While the electric field generated by the second charge is
E_2 = (8.99 \cdot 10^9 N m^2 C^{-2} ) \frac{+60.0 \cdot 10^{-9} C}{(0.15 m)^2}=2.4 \cdot 10^4 N/C

Both charges are positive, this means that both electric fields are directed toward the charge. Therefore, at the point midway between the two charges the two electric fields have opposite direction, so the total electric field at that point is given by the difference between the two fields:
E=E_2 - E_1 = 2.4 \cdot 10^4 N/C - 1.6 \cdot 10^4 N/C = 8000 N/C

A massless string connects a 10.00 kg mass to a 13.00 kg cart which is resting on a frictionless horizontal surface. The mass ha
ch4aika [34]

The cart's acceleration to the right after the mass is released  is determined as 7.54 m/s².

<h3>Acceleration of the cart</h3>

The acceleration of the cart is determined from the net force acting on the mass-cart system.

Upward force = Downward force

ma = mg

13a = 10(9.8)

13a = 98

a = 98/13

a = 7.54 m/s²

Thus, the cart's acceleration to the right after the mass is released  is determined as 7.54 m/s².
