Three charged particles are placed at each of three corners of an equilateral triangle whose sides are of length 3.3 cm . Two of

the particles have a negative charge: q1 = -8.2 nC and q2 = -16.4 nC . The remaining particle has a positive charge, q3 = 8.0 nC . What is the net electric force acting on particle 3 due to particle 1 and particle 2?

Answer:

1.44\times 10^{-3} N

Explanation:

We are given that three charged particle are placed at each corner  of equilateral triangle.

q_1=-8.2 nC,q_2=-16.4 nC,q_3=8.0nC

q_1=-8.2\times 10^{-9} C

q_2=-16.4\times 10^{-9} C

q_3=8.0\times 10^{-9} C

Side of equilateral triangle =3.3 cm=\frac{3.3}{100}=0.033m

We know that each angle of equilateral angle=60^{\circ}

Net force=F =\sum\frac{kQq }{d^2}

Where k=9\times 10^9 Nm^2/C^2

If we bisect the angle at q_3 then we have 30 degrees from there to either charge.

Direction of vertical force  due to charge q_1 and q_2

Therefore, force will be added

Vertical  force=9\times 10^9\times q_3(q_1+q_2)\frac{cos30}{(0.033)^2})

Vertical net force=9\times 10^9\times 8\times 10^{-9}(-8.2-16.4)\times 10^{-9}\times 10^6\times\frac{\sqrt3}{2\times 1089}

Vertical  force =9\times 8(-24.6)\times 10^{-9}\times 10^6\times 1.732\times \frac{1}{2178}

Vertical  force=-1.41\times 10^{-3}N (towards q_1}

Horizontal component are opposite in direction then will b subtracted

Horizontal force=9\times 10^9\times 8\times 10^{-9}(-8.2+16.4) \times 10^{-9}\times \frac{sin30}{(0.033)^2}

Horizontal force=0.27\times 10^-3} N(towards q_2

Net electric force acting on particle 3 due to particle =\sqrt{F^2_x+F^2_y}

Net force=\sqrt{(-1.41\times 10^{-3})^2+(0.27\times 10^{-3})^2}

Net force=1.44\times 10^{-3} N

What three variable factors determine the force of gravity between any two objects?
brilliants [131]
The force of gravity between two objects is:
F = G*m1*m2/r^2

So, it is dependent of the two masses and the distance between their centers of mass.

A box of mass 50 kg is pushed hard enough to set it in motion across a flat surface. Then a 99-N pushing force is needed to keep
vitfil [10]

Answer:

0.20

Explanation:

The box is moving at constant velocity, which means that its acceleration is zero; so, the net force acting on the box is zero as well.

There are two forces acting in the horizontal direction:

- The pushing force: F = 99 N, forward

- The frictional force: F_f=\mu mg, backward, with

\mu coefficient of kinetic friction

m = 50 kg mass of the box

g = 9.8 m/s^2 gravitational acceleration

The net force must be zero, so we have

F-F_f = 0

which we can solve to find the coefficient of kinetic friction:

F-\mu mg=0\\\mu = \frac{F}{mg}=\frac{99 N}{(50 kg)(9.8 m/s^2)}=0.20

a stone is dropped from the top of 50 m high tower simultaneously another stone is thrown upward with a speed of 20 m/s . calcul
Darina [25.2K]
'H' = height at any time
'T' = time after both actions
'G' = acceleration of gravity
'S' = speed at the beginning of time
Let's call 'up' the positive direction.
Let's assume that the tossed stone is tossed from the ground, not from the tower.

For the stone dropped from the 50m tower:

H = +50 - (1/2) G T²

For the stone tossed upward from the ground:

H = +20T - (1/2) G T²

When the stones' paths cross, their <em>H</em>eights are equal.

50 - (1/2) G T² = 20T - (1/2) G T²

Wow !  Look at that !  Add (1/2) G T² to each side of that equation,
and all we have left is:

50 = 20T  Isn't that incredible ? ! ?

Divide each side by 20 :

<u>2.5 = T</u>

The stones meet in the air 2.5 seconds after the drop/toss.

I want to see something: 
What is their height, and what is the tossed stone doing, when they meet ?

Their height is  +50 - (1/2) G T² = 19.375 meters

The speed of the tossed stone is  +20 - (1/2) G T = +7.75 m/s ... still moving up.
I wanted to see whether the tossed stone had reached the peak of the toss,
and was falling when the dropped stone overtook it.  The answer is no ... the
dropped stone was still moving up at 7.75 m/s when it met the dropped one.

A 140 kg load is attached to a crane, which moves the load vertically. Calculate the tension in the
Nesterboy [21]

Answer:

A.) 1372 N

B.) 1316 N

C.) 1428 N

Explanation:

Given that a 140 kg load is attached to a crane, which moves the load vertically. Calculate the tension in the cable for the following cases:

a. The load moves downward at a constant velocity

At constant velocity, acceleration = 0

T - mg = ma

T - mg = 0

T = mg

T = 140 × 9.8

T = 1372N

b. The load accelerates downward at a rate 0.4 m/s??

Mg - T = ma

140 × 9.8 - T = 140 × 0.4

1372 - T = 56

-T = 56 - 1372

- T = - 1316

T = 1316N

C. The load accelerates upward at a rate 0.4 m/s??

T - mg = ma

T - 140 × 9.8 = 140 × 0.4

T - 1372 = 56

T = 56 + 1372

T = 1428N
