Answer:

F = 147,78*10⁻⁹ [N]

Explanation:

By symmetry the Fy components of the forces acting on charge in point x = 0,7 m canceled each other, and the total force will be twice Fx ( Fx is x axis component of one of the forces .

The angle β  ( angle between the line running through one of the charges in y axis and the charge in x axis) is

tan β  =  0,5/0,7

tan β  = 0,7142    then   β = arctan 0,7142      ⇒   β = 35 ⁰

cos  β = 0,81

d = √ (0,5)²  +  (0,7)²       d1stance between charges

d = √0,25 + 0,49

d =  √0,74  m

d = 0,86  m

Now Foce between two charges  is:

F  = K* q₁*q₂/ d²      (1)

Where  K  = 9*10⁹ N*m²/C²

q₁  =  2,5* 10⁻⁹C

q₂  = 3,0*10⁻⁹C

d²  = 0,74 m²

Plugging these values in (1)

F  =  9*10⁹* 2,5* 10⁻⁹*3,0*10⁻⁹ / 0,74       [N*m²/C²]*C*C/m²

F = 91,21 * 10⁻⁹   [N]

And  Fx  =  F*cos  β

Fx  =  91,21 * 10⁻⁹ *0,81

Fx =73,89*10⁻⁹  [N]

Then total force acting on charge located at x = 0,7 m is:

F = 2* Fx

F = 2*73,89*10⁻⁹  [N]

F = 147,78*10⁻⁹ [N]

I'm walking 1.6m/s to 7-11 and it started to rain so I sped up to 2.7m/s in 1.2
olga nikolaevna [1]

Answer:

Explanation:

a = \frac{v_f-v_0}{t} which is the final velocity minus the initial velocity in the numerator, and the change in time in the denominator.  For us:

a=\frac{2.7-1.6}{1.2} so

a = .92 m/s/s (NOT negative because you're speeding up)

The outer surface of a spacecraft in space has an emissivity of 0.44 and a solar absorptivity of 0.3. If solar radiation is inci
max2010maxim [7]

Answer:

T=326.928K

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Emissivity e=0.44

Absorptivity \alpha =0.3

Rate of solar Radiation R=0.3

Generally the equation for Surface absorbed energy is mathematically given by

 E=\alpha R

 E=0.3*950

 E=285W/m^2

Generally the equation for Emitted Radiation is mathematically given by

 \mu=e(\sigmaT^4)

Where

T=Temperature

 \sigma=5.67*10^8Wm^{-2}K_{-4}

Therefore

 \alpha*E=e \sigma T^4

 0.3*(950)=0.44(5.67*10^-8)T^4

 T=326.928K
