A positively charged particle Q1 = +35nC is held fixed at the origin. A second charge of mass m = 3.5ug is floating a distance d

cupoosta [38]

Answer:

Explanation:

Q1 = 35 nC = 35 x 10^-9 C

m = 3.5 micro gram = 3.5 x 10^-9 Kg

d = 35 cm = 0.35 m

(a) The electrostatic force between the two charges is balanced by the weight of another charge.

F = m g

$\frac{1}{4\pi \epsilon _{0}}\frac{Q_{1}Q_{2}}{d^{2}}=mg$

$Q_{2}=\frac{4\pi \epsilon _{0}mgd^{2}}{Q_{1}}$

(b) By substituting the values

$Q_{2}=\frac{3.5\times 10^{-9}\times 9.8\times 0.35\timees 0.35}{9\times 10^{9}\times 35\times 10^{9}}$

Q2 = 13.34 x 10^-12 C

Q2 = 0.0134 nC

A planet orbits a star, in a year of length 3.37 x 107 s, in a nearly circular orbit of radius 1.04 x 1011 m. With respect to th

PIT_PIT [208]

Answer

Given,

Time period of star,T = 3.37 x 10⁷ s

Radius of circular orbit,R = 1.04 x 10¹¹ m

a) Angular speed of the planet

$\omega = \dfrac{2\pi}{T}=\dfrac{2\pi}{3.37\times 10^{7}}$

$\omega = 1.864\times 10^{-7}\ rad/s$

b) tangential speed

$v = r \omega = 1.04\times 10^{11}\times 1.864 \times 10^{-7}$

v = 1.94 x 10⁴ m/s

c) centripetal acceleration magnitude

$a = \dfrac{v^2}{r}= \dfrac{(1.94\times 10^4)^2}{1.04\times 10^{11}}$

a = 3.62 x 10⁻³ m/s²
