Two point charges of magnitude 5.0 nC and -3.0 nC are separated by

Physics
1 answer:
Lubov Fominskaja [6]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

V = 411.43 V

Explanation:

The two forces as a result of each of the 2 charges are;

F1 = kq1•q/r

F2 = kq2.q/r

Where r = r/2 since we are dealing with potential difference at a point midway between the charges.

q1 = 5 nC = 5 × 10^(-9) C

q2 = 3 nC = 3 × 10^(-9) C

k = 9 × 10^(9) N.m²/C²

r = 35 cm = 0.35m

r/2 = 0.35/2

Thus;

F1 = (9 × 10^(9) × 5 × 10^(-9) × q)/(0.35/2)²

F1 = 1469.39q

F2 = (9 × 10^(9) × 3 × 10^(-9) × q)/(0.35/2)²

F2 = 881.63q

Net force acting midway is;

F_net = F1 + F2

F_net = 1469.39q + 881.63q

F_net = 2351.02q

Now, we know that formula for electric potential is;

V = kq/r

Thus ;

V = Fr/q derived from the earlier equation for force we used.

Where F is F_net.

V = 2351.02q × r/q

V = 2351.02r

Recall that we are dealing with midpoint and r = r/2

Thus;

V = 2351.02 × 0.35/2

V = 411.43 V

Help with this question please.
mr Goodwill [35]

There are 4 hydrogens on the right side (2\mathrm H_2=4\mathrm H), and 2 hydrogens on the left per molecule of \mathrm H_2. To get the same number of hydrogens on both sides, the coefficient should be 2.

(Then the number of oxygens will be consistent, since 2\mathrm H_2\mathrm O contributes 2 oxygens, and so does \mathrm O_2.)

All contraceptives prevent STIs true or false
NNADVOKAT [17]
False. Not all contraceptives prevent STIs.

Contraceptives are items used or taken to prevent conception. These are birth control pill, patch, ring, IUD, birth control shots, and condoms. Among these contraceptives, condoms are the only type of birth control that prevents STIs or Sexually Transmitted Infections.

A mover loads a 100 kg box into the back of a moving truck by
NeX [460]

Answer:

2.7

Explanation:

The following data were obtained from the question:

Mass (m) of box = 100 Kg

Length (L) of ramp = 4 m

Height (H) of ramp = 1.5 m

Mechanical advantage (MA) of ramp =?

Mechanical advantage of a ramp is simply defined as the ratio of the length of the ramp to the height of the ramp. Mathematically, it is given by:

Mechanical Advantage = Lenght / height

MA= L/H

With the above formula, we can obtain the mechanical advantage of the ramp as follow:

Length (L) of ramp = 4 m

Height (H) of ramp = 1.5 m

Mechanical advantage (MA) of ramp =?

MA = 4/1.5

MA = 2.7

Therefore, the mechanical advantage of the ramp is 2.7
