Answer:

r = 8/2 = 4cm = 0.04m

k = 9×10^9

Enet = 51 N/C

Enet = E1 + E2

since E1 = E2

E1 = Enet/2 = 51/2

E/2 = kq/r²

q = Er²/2k

q = (51 × 0.04²)/(2×9×10^9)

q = 4.5×10^-12 C

q1 = q2 = 4.5 pC

Explanation:

The electric field is a region around a

charge in which it exerts electrostatic force

on another charges. While the strength of

electric field at any point in space is called

electric field intensity. It is a vector

quantity. Its unit is NC¯¹.

According to coulomb’s law ,if a unit

positive charge q (call it a test charge) is

brought near a charge q (call a field

charge) placed in space,the charge q will

experience a force. The value of this force

depends upon the distance between the

two charges. If the charge q is moved

away from q ,this force would decrease till

at a certain distance the force would be

practically reduced to zero. The charge q

is then out of the influence of charge q.

The region of space surrounding the charge

q in which it exerts a force on the charge

q is known as E.F of the charge

q. Mathematically it is expressed as:

E =F/q

The direction of the vector E is the same

as the direction of F,because q is a

positive scalar. Dimensionally,the E.F is

force per unit charge,and its SI unit is the

newton/coulomb (N/C).

A homeowner uses a snowblower to clear his driveway. knowing that the snow is discharged at an average angle of 40° with the hor
Nesterboy [21]

given that snow is projected at an angle of 40 degree

It range is given as a = 19 ft

a = 19 * 0.3048 = 5.8 m

now we can use the formula of horizontal range

R = \frac{v_o^2 sin2\theta}{g}

5.8 =\frac{ v_o^2 sin(2*40)}{9.8}

5.8 = \frac{v_o^2 * sin80}{9.8}

v_o^2 = 57.7

v_o = 7.6 m/s

<u>so its initial speed must be 7.6 m/s</u>
