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\sqrt{((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

mrs_skeptik [129]

Rock layers are folded and appear to be scratched because of the plate tectonics and the glacial advance.

Answer: Option 1 and 2.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Plate tectonics and the glacial advance are the geological phenomenon which have the power to effect the layers of the rock. Because of these, there can be scratches on the layers of the rock and the layers of the rocks can be folded.

The huge mass of ice that is included in the glacier which may be of thickness of three to four kilometers is a lot to scratch the rocks. These glaciers are responsible for moving the rocks from their original position to a new place altogether.

Black_prince [1.1K]

Answer:

a) variation of the energy is equal to the work of the friction force

b) W = Em_{f} -Em₀ ,  c) he conservation of mechanical energy

Explanation:

a) In an analysis of this problem we can use the energy law, where at the moment the mechanical energy is started it is totally potential, and at the lowest point it is totally kinetic, we can suppose two possibilities, that the friction is zero and therefore by equalizing the energy we set the velocity at the lowest point.

 Another case is if the friction is different from zero and in this case the variation of the energy is equal to the work of the friction force, in value it will be lower than in the calculations.

b) the calluses that he would use are to hinder the worker's friction force and energy

          W = Em_{f} -Em₀

          N d = ½ m v² - m g (y₂-y₁)

          y₂-y₁ = 35 -10 = 25m

c) if there is no friction, the physical principle is the conservation of mechanical energy

 If there is friction, the principle is that the non-conservative work is equal to the variation of the energy
