Answer:

F_T=6k\frac{Q^2}{L}\hat{i}+10k\frac{Q^2}{L}\hat{j}=2k\frac{Q^2}{L}[3\hat{i}+5\hat{j}]

|F_T|=2\sqrt{34}k\frac{Q^2}{L}

\theta=tan^{-1}(\frac{5}{3})=59.03\°

Explanation:

I attached an image below with the scheme of the system:

The total force on the charge 2Q is the sum of the contribution of the forces between 2Q and the other charges:

F_T=F_Q+F_{3Q}+F_{4Q}\\\\F_T=k\frac{(Q)(2Q)}{R_1}\hat{i}+k\frac{(3Q)(2Q)}{R_2}\hat{j}+k\frac{(4Q)(2Q)}{R_3}[cos\theta \hat{i}+sin\theta \hat{j}]

the distances R1, R2 and R3, for a square arrangement is:

R1 = L

R2 = L

R3 = (√2)L

θ = 45°

F_T=k\frac{2Q^2}{L}\hat{i}+k\frac{6Q^2}{L}\hat{j}+k\frac{8Q^2}{\sqrt{2}L}[cos(45\°)\hat{i}+sin(45\°)\hat{j}]\\\\F_T=k\frac{2Q^2}{L}\hat{i}+k\frac{6Q^2}{L}\hat{j}+k\frac{8Q^2}{\sqrt{2}L}[\frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}\hat{i}+\frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}\hat{j}]\\\\F_T=6k\frac{Q^2}{L}\hat{i}+10k\frac{Q^2}{L}\hat{j}=2k\frac{Q^2}{L}[3\hat{i}+5\hat{j}]

and the magnitude is:

|F_T|=2k\frac{Q^2}{L}\sqrt{3^2+5^2}=2\sqrt{34}k\frac{Q^2}{L}

the direction is:

\theta=tan^{-1}(\frac{5}{3})=59.03\°

Helium-oxygen mixtures are used by divers to avoid the bends and are used in medicine to treat some respiratory ailments. What p
Temka [501]

Answer:

The percentage by mole of Helium present in the Helium-Oxygen mixture is = 66.6%

Explanation:

From General gas equation.

PV = nRT...............................  Equation 1

Where n = number of moles, V = volume, P = pressure, T = temperature, P = pressure, V = volume.

n = mass/molar mass .................. Equation 2

substituting equation 2 into equation 1.

PV = (mass/molar mass)RT

⇒ Mass/molar mass = PV/RT..................... Equation 3

But mass = Density × Volume

⇒ M = D × V.................... Equation 4

Where D = density, M = mass

Substituting equation 4 into equation 3

DV/molar mass = PV/RT............ Equation 5

Dividing both side of the equation by Volume (V) in Equation 5

D/molar mass = P/RT .............. Equation 6

Cross multiplying equation 6

D × RT = P × molar mass

∴ Molar mass = (D × RT)/P.................. Equation 7

Where D = 0.518 g/L , R = 0.0821 atm dm³/K.mol,

T = 25°C = 25 + 273 = 298 K,

P =721 mmHg = (721/760) atm= 0.949 atm

Substituting these values into equation 7

Molar mass = (0.518 × 0.0821 × 298)/0.949

Molar mass = 13.35 g/mole

The molar mass of the mixture is =13.35 g/mole

Let y be the mole fraction of Helium and 1-y be the mole fraction of oxygen.

∴ 13.35 = 4(y) + 32(1-y)

13.35 = 4y + 32 - 32y

Collecting like terms in the equation,

32y - 4y = 32 - 13.35

28y = 18.65

y = 18.65/28

y =0.666

y = 0.666 × 100 = 66.6%

∴The percentage by mole of Helium present in the Helium-Oxygen mixture is = 66.6%

To persuade my audience that the use of mobile communication devices by drivers—even when they are hands-free—is contributing to
pickupchik [31]

Answer:

specific purpose statement      

Explanation:

It is a specific purpose statement made for a persuasive speech on the question of fact.

A specific purpose statement helps to build on the general purpose (that is to inform) and to make it more specific to the audience. So if the first speech is an informative speech, our general purpose is to inform our audience about a very specific realm of knowledge.

A specific purpose statement is given to audience to persuade on specific information.

In the pair of supply and demand equations below, where x represents the quantity demanded in units of a thousand and p the unit
arlik [135]

Answer:

Equilibrium quantity = 5

Equilibrium price = 40

Explanation:

given:

p = -x²-3x+80

p = 7x+5

For the equilibrium quantity the price from both the functions will be equal

thus, we have

-x² - 3x + 80 = 7x+5

⇒ x² +3x + 7x + 5 - 80 = 0

⇒x² + 10x - 75 = 0

now solving for x

x²- 5x + 15x -75 = 0

x(x-5) + 15(x-5) = 0

therefore, the two roots of the equation are

x = 5 and x = -15

since the quantity cannot be in negative

therefore, the equilibrium quantity will be = 5

now the equilibrium price can be found out by substituting the equilibrium quantity in any of the equation

thus,

p = -(5)² -3(5) + 80 = 40

or

p = 7(5) + 5 = 40

The magnitude of a vector can never be less than the magnitude of one of its components. Group of answer choices True False
pogonyaev

Answer:

True

Explanation:

As the formula for magnitude of a vector v and their components v_1, v_2, v_3, v_4,..., v_n is

v^2 = v_1^2 + v_2^2 + ... +v_n^2

Since v_1^2, v_2^2, v_3^2, v_4^2,..., v_n^2 \geq 0, this means the sum of them, v^2, is always greater or equal to v_1^2, v_2^2, v_3^2, v_4^2,..., v_n^2
