Answer:

1.12×10⁻⁵ C and 2.24×10⁻⁵ C.

Explanation:

From coulomb's law,

F = kAB/r².............................. Equation 1

Where F = Force exerted by each charge, A = charge at point A, B = charge at point B, r = distance of separation between the points, k = constant of proportionality.

Given: F = 47 N, r = 22 cm = 0.22 m.

Constant: k = 9.0×10⁹ Nm²/C²

Let: B = q, the A = 2q.

Substituting these values into equation 1,

47 = 9.0×10⁹(q×2q)/0.22²

47 = 18×10⁹(q²)/0.0484

q² = (47×0.0484)/(18×10⁹)

q² = 0.126×10⁻⁹

q² = 1.26×10⁻¹⁰

q = √( 1.26×10⁻¹⁰)

q = 1.12×10⁻⁵ C

The charge at point A = 2q = 2× 1.12×10⁻⁵  = 2.24×10⁻⁵ C.

Hence the charges are 1.12×10⁻⁵ C and 2.24×10⁻⁵ C.

Name the forces acting on a plastic bucket container water held above ground level in your hand. Discuss why the forces acting o
SashulF [63]

There are two forces at play:

  • The gravitational force acting downward due to the mass of the bucket and the water that it contains.
  • The upward force that your hand exerts on the bucket.

If the magnitude of the force your hand exerts on the bucket equals the magnitude of the gravitational force, the bucket is in static equilibrium. That means the bucket is not moving and the forces acting on it balance each other out, making the net force 0.

Having 0 net force means the bucket doesn't undergo any acceleration, or change in motion.

Which of the following experiments could be used to determine the inertial mass of a block? A. Place the block on a rough horizo
valentinak56 [21]

Answer:

D, using a spring scale to exert a force on the block. Measure the acceleration of the block and the applied force

Explanation:

For this you would use the net force equation acceleration=net force * mass however you will want to isolate mass so it would be acceleration/ net force to get mass. Then process of elimination comes to play.

navik [9.2K]

Answer:

technically yes

Explanation:

with a gun depending on how fast it shoots so when you fire at something you shoot in front of it a little bit so you hit it but a plane that fast you shoot like 100 feet infront of it...

A boy is pulling a load of 150N with a string inclined at an angle 30 to the horizontal if the tension of string is 105N the for
Lorico [155]

The force tending to lift the load (vertical force) is equal to <u>22.5N.</u>

Why?

Since the boy is pulling a load (150N) with a string inclined at an angle of 30° to the horizontal, the total force will have two components (horizontal and vertical component), but we need to consider the given information about the tension of the string which is equal to 105N.

We can calculate the vertical force using the following formula:

VerticalForce=Force*Sin(30\° )=(BoysForce-StringForce)*\frac{1}{2}\\\\VerticalForce=(150N-105N)*\frac{1}{2}=VerticalForce=45N*\frac{1}{2}=22.5N

Hence, we can see that <u>the force tending to lift the load</u> off the ground (vertical force) is equal to <u>22.5N.</u>

Have a nice day!
