What would the electrostatic force be for two 0.005C charges 50m apart?

Physics
1 answer:
irakobra [83]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

90 N

Explanation:

The electrostatic force between two charges is given by:

F=k\frac{q_1 q_2}{r^2}

where

k is the Coulomb's constant

q1, q2 are the two charges

r is the separation between the charges

In this problem we have

q1 = q2 = 0.005 C

r = 50 m

So the electrostatic force is

F=(9\cdot 10^9 N m^2 C^{-2})\frac{(0.005 C)^2}{(50 m)^2}=90 N

An airplane flies horizontally with a constant speed of 155.0 m/s at an unknown altitude. A package is released out of the airpl
vladimir1956 [14]

Answer:

 y₀ = 1020.3 m

Explanation:

This is a projectile launching exercise, in this case as the package is released its initial vertical velocity is zero.

            y = y₀ + v_{oy} t - ½ g t²

when it reaches the ground its height is zero

           0 = y₀ + 0 - ½ g t²

           y₀ = ½ g t²

           

let's calculate

         y₀ = ½ 9.8 14.43²

         y₀ = 1020.3 m

A block of wood is floating in water; it is depressed slightly and then released to oscillate up and down. Assume that the top a
Marysya12 [62]

Explanation:

Equilibrium position in y direction:

W = Fb (Weight of the block is equal to buoyant force)

m*g = V*p*g

V under water = A*h

hence,

m = A*h*p

Using Newton 2nd Law

-m*\frac{d^2y}{dt^2} = Fb - W\\\\-m*\frac{d^2y}{dt^2} = p*g*(h+y)*A - A*h*p*g\\\\-A*h*p*\frac{d^2y}{dt^2} = y *p*A*g\\\\\frac{d^2y}{dt^2} + \frac{g}{h} * y =0

Hence, T time period

T = 2*pi*sqrt ( h / g )

A block of mass m1 = 3.5 kg moves with velocity v1 = 6.3 m/s on a frictionless surface. it collides with block of mass m2 = 1.7
maxonik [38]
First, let's find the speed v_i of the two blocks m1 and m2 sticked together after the collision.
We can use the conservation of momentum to solve this part. Initially, block 2 is stationary, so only block 1 has momentum different from zero, and it is:
p_i = m_1 v_1
After the collision, the two blocks stick together and so now they have mass m_1 +m_2 and they are moving with speed v_i:
p_f = (m_1 + m_2)v_i
For conservation of momentum
p_i=p_f
So we can write
m_1 v_1 = (m_1 +m_2)v_i
From which we find
v_i =  \frac{m_1 v_1}{m_1+m_2}= \frac{(3.5 kg)(6.3 m/s)}{3.5 kg+1.7 kg}=4.2 m/s

The two blocks enter the rough path with this velocity, then they are decelerated because of the frictional force \mu (m_1+m_2)g. The work done by the frictional force to stop the two blocks is
\mu (m_1+m_2)g  d
where d is the distance covered by the two blocks before stopping.
The initial kinetic energy of the two blocks together, just before entering the rough path, is
\frac{1}{2} (m_1+m_2)v_i^2
When the two blocks stop, all this kinetic energy is lost, because their velocity becomes zero; for the work-energy theorem, the loss in kinetic energy must be equal to the work done by the frictional force:
\frac{1}{2} (m_1+m_2)v_i^2 =\mu (m_1+m_2)g  d
From which we can find the value of the coefficient of kinetic friction:
\mu =  \frac{v_i^2}{2gd}= \frac{(4.2 m/s)^2}{2(9.81 m/s^2)(1.85 m)}=0.49
