C. A combined circuit
That’s the answer
Answer:
The 1200 kg car.
Explanation:
The 1200 kg car had bo momentum at the initial stage of the journey because it wasn't on motion. But after collision with the 2000 kg car it gained alot of momentum.
Answer:
(a) 0.17 m
(b) 5.003 m
(c) 6.38 ×
N
(d) 7.37 ×
N
Explanation:
(a) The minimum value of
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.

<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= 

×
(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 = 
F= 7.37×
