<h2>Answer: Kitty Hawk, North Carolina </h2>

The Wright brothers, Wilbur and Orville, were pioneers of aviation, since they flew in a device heavier than air, which was inconceivable at that time.

Their first successful flight was on December 17th, 1903 in Kitty Hawk, North Carolina, which lasted only 12 seconds in which their plane (the Flyer I, with 341 kg, 6.4 m long and a wingspan of 12.3 m) traveled 37 m without touching the ground. This was achieved through the help of an external catapult that "threw" them into the air.

It should be noted that the Wright brothers only studied until high school, however, their passion for solving the problem of the human inability to fly, their perseverance and experience acquired over the years in their bicycle company, led them to reach that goal. An achievement that marked the beginning of the  aviation era.

A point charge Q is held at a distance r from the center of a dipole that consists of two charges ±q separated by a distance s.
marishachu [46]

Answer:

a) the magnitude of the force is

F= Q(\frac{kqs}{r^3}) and where k = 1/4πε₀

F = Qqs/4πε₀r³

b)  the magnitude of the torque on the dipole

τ = Qqs/4πε₀r²

Explanation:

from coulomb's law

E = \frac{kq}{r^{2} }

where k = 1/4πε₀

the expression of the electric field due to dipole at a distance r is

E(r) = \frac{kp}{r^{3} } , where p = q × s

E(r) = \frac{kqs}{r^{3} } where r>>s

a) find the magnitude of force due to the dipole

F=QE

F= Q(\frac{kqs}{r^3})

where k = 1/4πε₀

F = Qqs/4πε₀r³

b) b) magnitude of the torque(τ) on the dipole is dependent on the perpendicular forces

τ = F sinθ × s

θ = 90°

note: sin90° = 1

τ = F × r

recall  F = Qqs/4πε₀r³

∴ τ = (Qqs/4πε₀r³) × r

τ = Qqs/4πε₀r²
