1 answer:
Answer:
a) 0 b) 29.9 N c) 21.7 N d) -17.4 N e) -13.0 N f) -17.4 N g) 16.9 N
h) 24.3 N θ = 44.2º
Explanation:
a) As the electric force is exerted along the line that joins the charges, due to any of the charges A or C has non-zero x-coordinates, the force has no x components either.
So, Fcax = 0
b) Similarly, as Fx = 0, the entire force is directed along the y-axis, and is going upward, due both charges repel each other.
Fyca = k*qa*qc / rac² = (9.10⁹ N*m²/C²*(2.79)*(1.07)*10⁻⁸ C²) / 9.00 m²
Fyca = 29. 9 N
c) In order to get the magnitude of the force exerted by B on C, we need to know first the distance between both charges:
rbc² = (3.00 m)² + (4.00m)² = 25.0 m²
⇒ Fbc = k*qb*qc / rbc² = (9.10⁹ N*m²/C²*(5.64)*(1.07)*10⁻⁸ C²) / 25.0 m²
⇒ Fbc = 21.7 N
d) In order to get the x component of Fbc, we need to get the projection of Fcb over the x axis, taking into account that the force on particle C is attractive, as follows:
Fbcₓ = Fbc * cos (-θ) where θ, is the angle that makes the line of action of the force, with the x-axis, so we can write:
cos θ = x/r = 4.00 / 5.00 m =
Fcbx = 21.7*(-0.8) = -17.4 N
e) The y component can be calculated in the same way, projecting the force over the y-axis, as follows:
Fcby = Fcb* sin (-θ) = 21.7* (-3.00/5.00) = -13.0 N
f) The sum of both x components gives :
Fcx = 0 + (-17.4 N) = -17.4 N
g) The sum of both y components gives :
Fcy = 29.9 N + (-13.0 N) = 16.9 N
h) The magnitude of the resultant electric force acting on C, can be found just applying Pythagorean Theorem, as follows:
Fc = √(Fcx)²+(Fcy)² = (17.4)² + (16.9)² = 24.3 N
The angle from the horizontal can be found as follows:
Ф = arc tg (16.9 / 17.4) = 44.2º

Given that,
Radius of the circular loop, r = 10 cm = 0.1 m
Current flowing in the loop, I = 3.6 A
Uniform magnetic field, B = 12 T
To find,

Let M is the magnitude of magnetic dipole moment of the loop. We know that the product of current flowing and the area of cross section. Its formula is given by :
A is the area of circular wire
Therefore, the magnetic dipole moment of the loop is . Hence, this is the required solution.
Answer:
Both statements are true.
Explanation:
When a celestial object (stars, galaxies) is moving away from an observer its spectral lines¹ will be shifted to the red part of the spectrum² (longer wavelength), in the other hand if the celestial body is moving toward the observer, the spectral lines will be shifted to the blue part of the spectrum (shorter wavelength). That is known as the Doppler shift.
This Doppler shift can be explained with the Doppler Effect³, which is defined for the case of light as:
(1)
Where is the wavelength shift,
is the rest wavelength, v is the velocity of the source and c is the speed of light.
This redshift in distant galaxies is a strong evidence for the expansion of the universe. Equation 1 also allows the measurement of radial velocity from celestial objects.
Summary:
Blueshift:
Redshift:
¹Spectral lines: Determines the presence of particular elements in the photosphere of an star.
²Spectrum: Decomposition of light in its characteristic colors (wavelengths).
³Doppler Effect: Change in the frequency of a wave as a consequence of the movement from a source relative to an observer or vice versa.

Explanation:
The force between two charge q and q1 is given as
= 47.86 N in the +y direction
We need the force between q and q2 to be (47.86 - 18) = 29.86 N in the other direction to get the desired result.
solving for q2,
