Answer:

See the answers below.

Explanation:

to solve this problem we must make a free body diagram, with the forces acting on the metal rod.

i)

The center of gravity of the rod is concentrated in half the distance, that is, from the end of the bar to the center there is 40 [cm]. This can be seen in the attached free body diagram.

We have only two equilibrium equations, a summation of forces on the Y-axis equal to zero, and a summation of moments on any point equal to zero.

For the summation of forces we will take the forces upwards as positive and the negative forces downwards.

ΣF = 0

-15+T-W=0\\T-W=15

Now we perform a sum of moments equal to zero around the point of attachment of the string with the metal bar. Let's take as a positive the moment of the force that rotates the metal bar counterclockwise.

ii) In the free body diagram we can see that the force acts at 18 [cm] of the string.

ΣM = 0

(15*9) - (18*W) = 0\\135 = 18*W\\W = 7.5 [N]

The force of attraction between a -130.0 C and +180.0 C charge is 8.00 N. What is the separation between these two charges in me
kondaur [170]

Answer with Explanation:

The force of attraction between 2 charges of magnitudeq_1,q_2 separated by a distance 'r' is given by

F=\frac{1}{4\pi \epsilon _o}\frac{q_1\times q_2}{r^2}=k\frac{q_1\times q_2}{r^2}

where

\epsilon _o is a constant known as permitivity of free space

k=9\times 10^{9}Nm^2/C^2

Applying the given values in the above relation we get

8=9\times 10^{9}\times \frac{130\times 180}{r^{2}}\\\\r^{2}=\frac{9\times 10^{9}\times 130\times 180}{8}\\\\r^{2}=26325\times 10^{9}\\\\\therefore r=\sqrt{26325\times 10^{9}}=5.131\times 10^{6}meters
