Explanation :

It is given that,

Charge, $q=8.5\times 10^{-6}\ C$

The electric field acting on the charge, $E=3.2\times 10^{5}\ N/C$

The relation between the electric field and the electric charge is given by :

F = q E

$F=8.5\times 10^{-6}\ C\times 3.2\times 10^{5}\ N/C$

F = 2.72 N

So, the correct option is (B) 2.7 N

Hence, this is the required solution.

A 120-kg object and a 420-kg object are separated by 3.00 m At what position (other than an infinitely remote one) can the 51.0-

djverab [1.8K]

Answer:

1.045 m from 120 kg

Explanation:

m1 = 120 kg

m2 = 420 kg

m = 51 kg

d = 3 m

Let m is placed at a distance y from 120 kg so that the net force on 51 kg is zero.

By use of the gravitational force

Force on m due to m1 is equal to the force on m due to m2.

$\frac{Gm_{1}m}{y^{2}}=\frac{Gm_{2}m}{\left ( d-y \right )^{2}}$

$\frac{m_{1}}{y^{2}}=\frac{m_{2}}{\left ( d-y \right )^{2}}$

$\frac{3-y}{y}=\sqrt{\frac{7}{2}}$

3 - y = 1.87 y

3 = 2.87 y

y = 1.045 m

Thus, the net force on 51 kg is zero if it is placed at a distance of 1.045 m from 120 kg.

A small branch is wedged under a 200 kg rock and rests on a smaller object. The smaller object is 2.0 m from the large rock and

Alexxandr [17]

Answer:

a

$F =326.7 \ N$

b

$M = 6$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The mass of the rock is $m_r = 200 \ kg$

The length of the small object from the rock is $d = 2 \ m$

The length of the small object from the branch $l = 12 \ m$

An image representing this lever set-up is shown on the first uploaded image

Here the small object acts as a fulcrum

The force exerted by the weight of the rock is mathematically evaluated as

$W = m_r * g$

substituting values

$W = 200 * 9.8$

$W = 1960 \ N$

So at equilibrium the sum of the moment about the fulcrum is mathematically represented as

$\sum M_f = F * cos \theta * l - W cos\theta * d = 0$

Here $\theta$ is very small so $cos\theta * l = l$

and $cos\theta * d = d$

Hence

$F * l - W * d = 0$

=> $F = \frac{W * d}{l}$

substituting values

$F = \frac{1960 * 2}{12}$

$F =326.7 \ N$

The mechanical advantage is mathematically evaluated as

$M = \frac{W}{F}$

substituting values

$M = \frac{1960}{326.7}$

$M = 6$

A ball with a mass of 2000 g is floating on the surface of a pool of water. What is the minimum volume that the ball could have

Doss [256]

Answer:

$2000\; {\rm cm^{3}}$ .

Explanation:

When the ball is placed in this pool of water, part of the ball would be beneath the surface of the pool. The volume of the water that this ball displaced is equal to the volume of the ball that is beneath the water surface.

The buoyancy force on this ball would be equal in magnitude to the weight of water that this ball has displaced.

Let $m(\text{ball})$ denote the mass of this ball. Let $m(\text{water})$ denote the mass of water that this ball has displaced.

Let $g$ denote the gravitational field strength. The weight of this ball would be $m(\text{ball}) \, g$ . Likewise, the weight of water displaced would be $m(\text{water})\, g$ .

For this ball to stay afloat, the buoyancy force on this ball should be greater than or equal to the weight of this ball. In other words:

$\text{buoyancy} \ge m(\text{ball})\, g$ .

At the same time, buoyancy is equal in magnitude the the weight of water displaced. Thus:

$\text{buoyancy} = m(\text{water}) \, g$ .

Therefore:

$m(\text{water})\, g = \text{buoyancy} \ge m(\text{ball})\, g$ .

$m(\text{water}) \ge m(\text{ball})$ .

In other words, the mass of water that this ball displaced should be greater than or equal to the mass of of the ball. Let $\rho(\text{water})$ denote the density of water. The volume of water that this ball should displace would be:

$\begin{aligned}V(\text{water}) &= \frac{m(\text{water})}{\rho(\text{water})} \\ &\ge \frac{m(\text{ball}))}{\rho(\text{water})} \end{aligned}$ .

Given that $m(\text{ball}) = 2000\; {\rm g}$ while $\rho = 1.00\; {\rm g\cdot cm^{-3}}$ :

$\begin{aligned}V(\text{water}) &\ge \frac{m(\text{ball}))}{\rho(\text{water})} \\ &= \frac{2000\; {\rm g}}{1.00\; {\rm g\cdot cm^{-3}}} \\ &= 2000\; {\rm cm^{3}}\end{aligned}$ .

In other words, for this ball to stay afloat, at least $2000\; {\rm cm^{3}}$ of the volume of this ball should be under water. Therefore, the volume of this ball should be at least $2000\; {\rm cm^{3}}\!$ .
