Q = magnitude of charge on each of the two point charge = 3.60 mC = 3.60 x 10⁻³ C

r = distance between the two point charges = 9.3 cm = 0.093 m

k = constant = 9 x 10⁹ Nm²/C²

F = magnitude of the force between the two point charges = ?

according to coulomb's law , force between two charges is given as

F = k Q²/r²

inserting the values

F = (9 x 10⁹) (3.60 x 10⁻³)²/(0.093)²

F = 1.35 x 10⁷ N

Gala2k [10]

Explanation:

Given that,

Charge acting on the object, $q=-4\ nC=-4\times 10^{-9}\ C$

Force acting on the object, $F=19\ nC=19\times 10^{-9}\ C$ (in downward direction)

(a) The electric force acting in the electric field is given by :

$F=qE$

E is the electric field

$E=\dfrac{F}{q}$

$E=\dfrac{19\times 10^{-9}\ N}{4\times 10^{-9}\ C}$

E = 4.75 N/C

The direction of electric field is as same as electric force. But it is negative charge. So, the direction of electric field is in upward direction.

(b) The charge on the proton is, $q=1.6\times 10^{-19}\ C$

The force acting on the proton is :

$F=qE$

$F=1.6\times 10^{-19}\times 4.75$

$F=7.6\times 10^{-19}\ N$

If the charge on the proton is positive, the force on the proton is in upward direction.

Hence, this is the required solution.

Answer:

Part a)

$\tau_{net} = 1397.1 Nm$

Part b)

$I = 702.06 kg m^2$

Explanation:

Part a)

Torque on the rod is due to two forces

(i) Due to weight of the rod at mid point

(ii) Due to external force applied at the end

Now we have

$\tau_{net} = FL - mg\frac{L}{2}$

$\tau_{net} = 254(9.76) - (22.6)(9.81)(\frac{9.76}{2})$

$\tau_{net} = 1397.1 Nm$

Part b)

As per Newton's law we know that

$\tau = I\alpha$

now we have

$1397.1 Nm = I(1.99 rad/s^2)$

$I = 702.06 kg m^2$
