Particles 1 and 2 of charge q1 = q2 = +3.20 × 10−19 C are on a y axis at distance d = 17.0 cm from the origin. Particle 3 of cha

rge q3 = +6.40 × 10−19 C is moved gradually along the x axis from x = 0 to x = +5.0 m. At what values of x will the magnitude of the electrostatic force on the third particle from the other two particles be (a) minimum and (b) maximum? What are the (c) minimum and (d) maximum magnitudes?

Answer:

(a) 0.17 m

(b) 5.003 m

(c) 6.38 × 10^{-26} N

(d) 7.37 ×10^{-29} N

Explanation:

(a) The minimum value of x will occur when q3 = 0 m or at origin and q1, q2 are at 0.17 m so the distance between q3 and q1, q2 is 0.17 m, therefore the <em>minimum value of x= 0.17 m</em>.

(b) The maximum value of x will occur when q3 = 5 m because it is said in the question that 5 is the maximum distance travelled by q3. To find the hypotenuse i.e. the distance between q3 and q1,q2, we use Pythagoras theorem.

h^{2} = b^{2} + p^{2}

h^{2} = 5^{2} + 0.17^{2}   \\h = \sqrt{} 25.03\\h= 5.002 m

<em>Hence, the maximum distance is 5.002 m</em>

(c) For minimum magnitude we use the minimum distance calculated in (a)

Minimum Distance = 0.17 m

For electrostatic force=     F=\frac{kq1q2}{x^{2} }

F=\frac{9 x 10^{9} x3.2x10^{-19}x 6.4x10^{-19}  }{0.17^{2} }

F= 6.38×10^{-26} N

(d) For maximum magnitude, we use the maximum distance calculated in (b)

Maximum Distance = 5.002 m

Using the formula for electrostatic force again:

F =  \frac{9x10^{9}x3.2x10^{-19}x6.4x10^{-19}   }{5.002^{2} } }

F= 7.37×10^{-29 N

What is the potential energy of a 25 kg bicycle resting at the top of a hill 3 m high? (Formula: PE = mgh)
Lisa [10]

Answer:

The answer would be 735J

Explanation:

PE=mgh

=(mass)(force of gravity)(height)

=(25kg)(9.8m/s^2)(3m)

=735J

A potential energy function is given by u(x)=(3.00n)xâ(1.00n/m2)x3. at what position or positions is the force equal to zero?
qwelly [4]

I believe the correct form of the energy function is:

u (x) = (3.00 N) x + (1.00 N / m^2) x^3

or in simpler terms without the units:

u (x) = 3 x + x^3

Since the highest degree is power of 3, therefore there are two roots or solutions of the equation.

 

Since we are to find for the positions x in which the force equal to zero, u (x) = 0, therefore:

3 x + x^3 = u (x)

3 x + x^3 = 0

Taking out x:

x (3 + x^2) = 0

So one of the factors is x = 0.

 

Finding for the other two factors, we divide the two sides by x and giving us:

x^2 + 3 = 0

x^2 = - 3

x = sqrt (- 3)

x = - 1.732 i, 1.732 i

 

The other two roots are imaginary therefore the force is only equal to zero when the position is also zero.

 

Answer:

x = 0

A stretched string has a mass per unit length of 4.87 g/cm and a tension of 16.7 N. A sinusoidal wave on this string has an ampl
Burka [1]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass per unit length is

μ = 4.87g/cm

μ=4.87g/cm × 1kg/1000g × 100cm/m

μ = 0.487kg/m

Tension

τ = 16.7N

Amplitude

A = 0.101mm

Frequency

f = 71 Hz

The wave is traveling in the negative direction

Given the wave form

y(x,t) = ym• Sin(kx + ωt)

A. Find ym?

ym is the amplitude of the waveform and it is given as

ym = A = 0.101mm

ym = 0.101mm

B. Find k?

k is the wavenumber and it can be determined using

k = 2π / λ

Then, we need to calculate the wavelength λ using

V = fλ

Then, λ = V/f

We have the frequency but we don't have the velocity, then we need to calculate the velocity using

v = √(τ/μ)

v = √(16.7/0.487)

v = 34.29

v = 5.86 m/s

Then, we can know the wavelength

λ = V/f = 5.86 / 71

λ = 0.0825 m

So, we can know the wavenumber

k = 2π/λ

k = 2π / 0.0825

k = 76.18 rad/m

C. Find ω?

This is the angular frequency and it can be determined using

ω = 2πf

ω = 2π × 71

ω = +446.11 rad/s

D. The angular frequency is positive (+) because the direction of propagation of wave is in the negative direction of x

An example of convection and conduction within a BBQ. I also accept diagrams but please write honestly or I will report.
qwelly [4]
Conduction could be the way in which heat is transferred through a sausage to get it up to cooked temperature. convection could be the air around the barbecue and the smell of the barbecue being carried on thermal convection currents. hope this is honest enough
