Two positive charges q1 = q2 = 2.0 μC are located at x = 0, y = 0.30 m and x = 0, y = -0.30 m, respectively. Third point charge

Q = 4.0 μC is located at x = 0.40 m, y = 0.What is the net force ((a)magnitude and (b)direction) on charge q1 exerted by the other two charges?

Answer:

 F = 0.111015 N

Explanation:

For this exercise the force is given by Coulomb's law

        F = k q₁q₂ / r₂₁²

we calculate the electric force of the other two particles on the charge q1

Charges q₁ and q₂

the distance between them is

          r₁₂ = y₁ -y₂

          r₁₂ = 0.30 + 0.30

          r₁₂ = 0.60 m

let's calculate

          F₁₂ = 9 10⁹ 2 10⁻⁶ 2 10⁻⁶ / 0.60 2

          F₁₂ = 1 10⁻¹ N

directed towards the positive side of the y-axis

Charges 1 and 3

Let's find the distance using the Pythagorean Theorem

             r₁₃ = RA [(0.40-0) 2 + (0-0.30) 2]

             r₁₃ = 0.50 m

            F₁₃ = 9 10⁹ 2 10⁻⁶ 4 10⁻⁶ / 0.50²

            F₁₃ = 1.697 10⁻² N

The direction of this force is on the line that joins the two charges (1 and 3), let's use trigonometry to find the components of this force

           tan θ = y / x

           θ = tan⁻¹ y / x

          θ = tan⁻¹ 0.3 / 0.4

           tea = 36.87º

    The angle from the positive side of the x-axis is

         θ ’= 180 - θ

        θ ’= 180 - 36.87

        θ ’= 143.13º

       sin143.13 = F_13y / F₁₃

           F_13y = F₁₃ sin 143.13

           F{13y} = 1.697 10⁻² sin 143.13

           F_13y = 1.0183 10⁻² N

            cos 143.13 = F_13x / F₁₃

           F₁₃ₓ = F₁₃ cos 143.13

           F₁₃ₓ = 1.697 10⁻² cos 143.13

           F₁₃ₓ = -1.357 10-2 N

Now we can find the components of the resultant force

          Fx = F13x + F12x

          Fx = -1,357 10-2 +0

          Fx = -1.357 10-2 N

          Fy = F13y + F12y

         Fy = 1.0183 10-2 + ​​1 10-1

          Fy = 0.110183 N

We use the Pythagorean theorem to find the modulus

         F = Ra (Fx2 + Fy2)

         F = RA [(1.357 10-2) 2 + 0.110183 2]

         F = 0.111015 N

Let's use trigonometry for the angles

         tan tea = Fy / Fx

          tea = tan-1 (0.110183 / -0.01357)

          tea = 1,448 rad

to find the angle about the positive side of the + x axis

           tea '= pi - 1,448

           Tea = 1.6936 rad

patriot [66]

Answer:

The maximum displacement of the mass m₂ = \frac{2(m_1-m_2)g}{k}

Explanation:

Kinetic Energy (K) = 1/2mv²

Potential Energy (P) = mgh

Law of Conservation of energy states that total energy of the system remains constant.

i.e; Total energy before collision = Total energy after collision

This implies that: the gravitational potential energy lost by m₁ must be equal to sum of gravitational energy gained by m₂ and the elastic potential energy stored in the spring.

m_1gd = m_2gd+\frac{1}{2}kd^2\\\\m_1g = m_2g+\frac{1}{2}kd\\\\d = \frac{2(m_1-m_2)g}{k}

d = maximum displacement of the mass m₂
