A −3.0 nC charge is on the x-axis at x=−9 cm and a +4.0 nC charge is on the x-axis at x=16 cm. At what point or points on the y-

alexdok [17]

Answer:

y = 10.2 m

Explanation:

It is given that,

Charge, $q_1=-3\ nC$

It is placed at a distance of 9 cm at x axis

Charge, $q_2=+4\ nC$

It is placed at a distance of 16 cm at x axis

We need to find the point on the y-axis where the electric potential zero. The net potential on y-axis is equal to 0. So,

$\dfrac{kq_1}{r_1}+\dfrac{kq_2}{r_2}=0$

Here,

$r_1=\sqrt{y^2+9^2} \\\\r_2=\sqrt{y^2+15^2}$

So,

$\dfrac{kq_1}{r_1}=-\dfrac{kq_2}{r_2}\\\\\dfrac{q_1}{r_1}=-\dfrac{q_2}{r_2}\\\\\dfrac{-3\ nC}{\sqrt{y^2+81} }=-\dfrac{4\ nC}{\sqrt{y^2+225} }\\\\3\times \sqrt{y^2+225}=4\times \sqrt{y^2+81}$

Squaring both sides,

$3\times \sqrt{y^2+225}=4\times \sqrt{y^2+81}\\\\9(y^2+225)=16\times (y^2+81)\\\\9y^2+2025=16y^2-+1296\\\\2025-1296=7y^2\\\\7y^2=729\\\\y=10.2\ m$

So, at a distance of 10.2 m on the y axis the electric potential equals 0.

Compare the time period of two simple pendulums of length 4m and 16m at a place.

Vlad1618 [11]

Answer:

the period of the 16 m pendulum is twice the period of the 4 m pendulum

Explanation:

Recall that the period (T) of a pendulum of length (L) is defined as:

$T=2\,\pi\,\sqrt{ \frac{L}{g} }$

where "g" is the local acceleration of gravity.

SInce both pendulums are at the same place, "g" is the same for both, and when we compare the two periods, we get:

$T_1=2\,\pi\,\sqrt{\frac{4}{g} } \\T_2=2\,\pi\,\sqrt{\frac{16}{g} } \\ \\\frac{T_2}{T_1} =\sqrt{\frac{16}{4} } =2$

therefore the period of the 16 m pendulum is twice the period of the 4 m pendulum.
