Three point charges are arranged along the x axis. Charge q1=-4.00nC is located at x= .250 m and q2= 2.40 nC is at the x= -.300m

. A positive point charge q3 is located at the origin. a) What must the value of q3 be for the net force on thispoint charge to have a magnitude 4.40 μN ?

Answer:

q₃=5.3nC

Explanation:

First, we have to calculate the force exerted by the charges q₁ and q₂. To do this, we use the Coulomb's Law:

F= k\frac{|q_aq_b|}{r^{2} } \\\\\\F_{13}=(9*10^{9} Nm^{2} /C^{2} )\frac{|(-4.00*10^{-9}C)q_3|}{(.250m)^{2} } =576q_3N/C\\\\F_{23}=(9*10^{9} Nm^{2} /C^{2} )\frac{|(2.40*10^{-9}C)q_3|}{(.300m)^{2} } =240q_3N/C\\

Since we know the net force, we can use this to calculate q₃. As q₁ is at the right side of q₃ and q₁ and q₃ have opposite signs, the force F₁₃ points to the right. In a similar way, as q₂ is at the left side of q₃, and q₂ and q₃ have equal signs, the force F₂₃ points to the right. That means that the resultant net force is the sum of these two forces:

F_{Net}=F_{13}+F_{23}\\\\4.40*10^{-9} N=576q_3N/C+240q_3N/C\\\\4.40*10^{-6} N=816q_3N/C\\\\\implies q_3=5.3*10^{-9}C=5.3nC

In words, the value of q₃ must be 5.3nC.

5. A hollow cylinder of mass m, radius Rc, and moment of inertia I = mRc2 is pushed against a spring (with spring constant k) co
Makovka662 [10]

Explanation:

(a) Draw a free body diagram of the cylinder at the top of the loop.  At the minimum speed, the normal force is 0, so the only force is weight pulling down.

Sum of forces in the centripetal direction:

∑F = ma

mg = mv²/RL

v = √(g RL)

(b) Energy is conserved.

EE = KE + RE + PE

½ kd² = ½ mv² + ½ Iω² + mgh

kd² = mv² + Iω² + 2mgh

kd² = mv² + (m RC²) ω² + 2mg (2 RL)

kd² = mv² + m RC²ω² + 4mg RL

kd² = mv² + mv² + 4mg RL

kd² = 2mv² + 4mg RL

kd² = 2m (v² + 2g RL)

d² = 2m (v² + 2g RL) / k

d = √[2m (v² + 2g RL) / k]

What is a disadvantage of shared decision-making?
Snezhnost [94]
The disadvantages of shared decision making are:
Adopting a wrong advice from a member can lead to a big risk to the company and the business. 
Further, increased number of advice also confuses the person, about which to follow and which to ignore. 
There is also diffusion of responsibility and lowered efficiency.

In which situation can you be at rest and moving at then same time
anyanavicka [17]

If you are stationary, but in/on a moving vehicle/object you can be at rest and moving at then same time.

<u>Explanation</u>:

  • A particle, when viewed from a given frame of reference, cannot be both at rest and in motion. However, in one frame of reference, a particle can be in motion whereas in another frame of reference the particle is in motion.
  • For example, if you are seated in a plane, the plane is stationary in that reference frame and the Earth moves under it, but in the reference frame of the Earth, the plane is moving concerning the Earth. When you are standing still on Earth, in your frame of reference, the Earth is stationary, and the Sun and stars move around the Earth.
  • However, in the frame of reference of the center of our solar system, the Earth orbits the Sun and the Sun are perturb slightly by the rest of the planets, but the rest of the galaxy orbits our solar system. Of course, in rest from our Galaxy, our solar system orbits a giant black hole at its center.
