Two charges, -20 C and +4.7 C, are fixed in place and separated by 3.0 m. a. At what spot along a line through the charges is th

e net electric field zero? Give the distance of the spot to the positive charge in meters (m). (Hint: The spot does not necessarily lie between the two charges.) b. What would be the force on a charge of +14 C placed at this spot?

The zero net electric field point is at a point that is 0.98 m away from 4.7C charge.If a 14C charge is placed at this point then, force acted on the charge placed at this point is equal to zero.

Explanation:

Let at A both net electric field is zero then

At A ,E1=E2

E1=k*Iq1I / (d+x)^2

E2=k*Iq2I /x^2

Equating both

vovangra [49]

Answer:

a) 48.5 ft/s

b) 36.5 ft

c) -80.3 ft/s

Explanation:

a)

The equation of motion of the ball is :

y(t) = -16.1 ft/s^2 * t^2 + Vo*t

Where Vo is the initial velocity

If y(5s) = - 160 ft:

-160 ft = -16.1 ft/s^2 * (5 s)^2 + Vo*(5s)

Solving for Vo

Vo  = (16.1*25- 160) ft / 5s = 48.5 ft/s

b)

To answer this question we must first know when the velocity became zero, at this time is when the ball was at its highest point.

v(t) = -32.2 ft/s^2 * t + Vo

t = Vo/32.2ft/s^2 = 1.5 s

And now, the highest point which the ball reached is given by:

y(1.5s) = -16.1 ft/s^2 * (1.5)^2 + Vo*(1.5s)

y(1.5s) = 36.52 ft

c)

We now need the time at which y(t') = -64 ft

-64 = -16.1*t'^2 + 48.5*t'

By means of the quadratic formula, we find that

t' = 4.00498 s ≈ 4 s

And the velocity at t = 4s is:

v(4s) = -32.2 ft/s^2 * 4s +48.5 ft/s = -80.3 ft/s

If the pendulum took longer to complete one oscillation, how would the graph change?
Sindrei [870]

Answer:

took longer to complete one oscillation, that means its PERIOD increased, and the distance between the peaks of the graph would be longer.

line would be less. the period of oscillation would have any effect on the graph

Which of the following statements are true at some time during the course of the motion? Check all that apply. Check all that ap
eduard

Answer:

The object can have zero velocity and, simultaneously, nonzero acceleration.

The object can have zero acceleration and, simultaneously, nonzero velocity.

The object can have nonzero velocity and nonzero acceleration simultaneously.

Explanation:

An object in simple harmonic motion has a total mechanical energy (sum of elastic potential energy and kinetic energy) that is constant:

E=U+K=1/2kx^2 + 1/2}mv^2

where,

k is equal to the spring constant

x is equal to the displacement

m is the mass

v is the speed

We can note that the force on the spring is given by Hook's law:

F=-kx

In Newton's law F = ma, this can be also be written as

ma=-kx

a=-k/mx

This implies that the acceleration is proportional to the displacement.

From the first equation, we can now states that:

When the displacement is zero, x=0, the acceleration is zero, a=0, and the velocity is maximum

When the velocity is zero, v=0, the acceleration is maximum, which occurs when the displacement is maximum

In all the other intermediate situations, both velocity and acceleration are nonzero.

So the correct answers are

The object can have zero acceleration and, simultaneously, nonzero velocity.

The object can have nonzero velocity and nonzero acceleration simultaneously.

The object can have zero velocity and, simultaneously, nonzero acceleration.
