A positive charge Q is placed at the origin. Four other positive charges are placed on a circle in the x-y plane centered on Q a

s shown. The top charge is located on the y axis and has a magnitude of 3q. The three bottom charges are symmetric about the y axis as shown and each has magnitude q.
1) Which of the following statements best describes FX, the x component of the net force on the charge at the origin
FX > 0
FX = 0
FX < 0

3) For the collection of charges shown in the above problem, which of the following statements best describes FY, the y component of the net force on the charge at the origin
FY > 0
FY = 0
FY < 0

1. <span>FX = 0 since the bottom charges are symmetrical about the y axis and the top charge is aligned with the y-axis
3. </span><span>FY > 0 since the bottom charges do not equate the top charge. The bottom charges have horizontal components which is less than q and adding them all, will not result to 3q.</span>

An insulating sphere is 8.00 cm in diameter and carries a 6.50 µC charge uniformly distributed throughout its interior volume.
Kobotan [32]

Explanation:

(a)   Formula to calculate the density is as follows.

            \rho = \frac{Q}{\frac{4}{3}\pi a^{3}}

                       = \frac{6.50 \times 10^{-6}}{\frac{4}{3} \times 3.14 \times (0.04)^{3}}

                     = 2.42 \times 10^{-2} C/m^{3}

Now, calculate the charge as follows.

            q_{in} = \rho(\frac{4}{3} \pi r^{3})

                      = 2.42 \times 10^{-2} C/m^{3} \times 4.1762 \times (0.01)^{3}

                      = 10.106 \times 10^{-8} C

or,                   = 101.06 nC

(b)  For r = 6.50 cm, the value of charge will be calculated as follows.

                q_{in} = \frac{Q}{\frac{4}{3}\pi a^{3}}

                          = \frac{6.50 \times 10^{-6}}{\frac{4}{3} \times 3.14 \times (0.065)^{3}}

                          = 7.454 \mu C

When you are driving on a rural road, if your right wheels run off the pavement, you should hold the steering wheel firmly and
julia-pushkina [17]

Answer:

C). Take your foot off the gas pedal. Then brake lightly until you are moving at low speed.                    

Explanation:

While driving on roads of rural areas, if our right wheel moves off the pavement, we should always hold the steering wheel firmly and then take our foot off the gas pedal, then apply brake lightly until we are moving at a low speed.

      When our wheels drift off the pavement area, we should not panic and yank. And instead of turning the wheel back in the left direction towards the road, it is always safer to take off our foot from the gas pedal and then apply brakes slowly. When our vehicle slows down check the incoming traffic behind us and then we should slowly move back on to the pavement.
