Answer:

The forces experienced by the middle particle are attractive, and the net force will remain the same (0) if and only if the distances of the sides particles to the middle particle are the same.

Explanation:

In example 20.3 the forces experienced by the middle particle are repulsive because all the particles are positive, for the case in which the particles on the sides are replaced for negative charge particles the forces experienced by the middle particle are attractive. Regarding the net force, because we don't know the distances we can not give a definitive answer, what we can say is that if the distances from the middle particle to the sides particles are the same the net force is zero for both cases (remain unchanged).

Yuliya22 [10]

Answer:

I hear points of low volume sound and points of high volume of sound.

Explanation:

This is because, since the two sources of sound have the same frequency and are separated by a distance, d = 10 mm, there would be successive points of constructive and destructive interference.

Since their frequencies are similar, we should have beats of high and low frequency.

So, at points of low frequency, the amplitude of the wave is smallest and there is destructive interference. The frequency at this point is the difference between the frequencies from both speakers. Since the frequency from both speakers is 400 Hz, we have, f - f' = 400 Hz - 400 Hz = 0 Hz. So, the volume of the sound is low(zero) at these points.

Also, at points of high frequency, the amplitude of the wave is highest and there is constructive interference. The frequency at this point is the sum between the frequencies from both speakers. Since the frequency from both speakers is 400 Hz, we have, (f + f') = 400 Hz + 400 Hz = 800 Hz. So, the volume of the sound is high at these points.

So, as you wander around the room, I should hear points of high and low sound across the room.

Early black-and-white television sets used an electron beam to draw a picture on the screen. The electrons in the beam were acce
oee [108]

Answer:

3.25 × 10^7 m/s

Explanation:

Assuming the electrons start from rest, their final kinetic energy is equal to the electric potential energy lost while moving through the potential difference (ΔV)

Ek = 1/2 mv2 = qΔV .................. 1

Given that V is the electron speed in m/s

Charge of electron = 1.60217662 × 10-19 coulombs

Mass of electron = 9.109×10−31 kilograms

ΔV = 3.0kV = 3000V

Make V the subject of the formula in eqaution 1

V = sqr root 2qΔV/m

V = 2 × 1.60217662 × 10-19 × 3000 / 9.109×10−31

V = 3.25 × 10^7 m/s

Juliette [100K]

Answer:W=1.93\times 10^9 J      

Explanation:

Given

Force F=1.6\times 10^{6} N

one at an angle of 13^{\circ} East of North and another at 13^{\circ} West of North

Net Force is in North Direction

F_{net}=2F\cos 13

Forces in horizontal direction will cancel out each other

thus Work done will be by north direction forces  

W=2F\cdot \cos 30\cdot s

here s=0.7 km

W=2\times 1.6\times 10^{6}\cdot \cos 30\cdot 700

W=1.93\times 10^9 J

A container of rocks is brought back from the Moon's surface where the acceleration due to gravity is 162 meters per second if t
spin [16.1K]

Answer:

6318 N

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Acceleration due to gravity of the moon (gₘ) = 1.62 m/s²

Mass (m) of container = 650 kg

Weight (W) of container on the earth =.?

Next, we shall determine the acceleration due to gravity of the earth. This can be obtained as follow:

Acceleration due to gravity of the moon (gₘ) = 1.62 m/s²

Acceleration due to gravity of the earth (gₑ) =.?

gₘ = 1/6 × gₑ

1.62 = 1/6 × gₑ

1.62 = gₑ /6

Cross multiply

gₑ = 1.62 × 6

gₑ = 9.72 m/s²

Finally, we shall determine the weight of the container on the earth as follow:

Mass (m) of container = 650 kg

Acceleration due to gravity of the earth (gₑ) = 9.72 m/s²

Weight (W) of container on the earth =.?

W = m × gₑ

W = 650 × 9.72

W = 6318 N

Therefore, the weight of the container on earth is 6318 N
