A particle with charge 3.01 µC on the negative x axis and a second particle with charge 6.02 µC on the positive x axis are each

a distance 0.0429 m from the origin. Where should a third particle with charge 9.03 µC be placed so that the magnitude of the electric field at the origin is zero?

Answer:

The third particle should be at 0.0743 m from the origin on the negative x-axis.

Explanation:

Let's assume that the third charge is on the negative x-axis. So we have:

E_{1}+E_{3}-E_{2}=0

We know that the electric field is:

E=k\frac{q}{r^{2}}

Where:

  • k is the Coulomb constant
  • q is the charge
  • r is the distance from the charge to the point

So, we have:

k\frac{q_{1}}{r_{1}^{2}}+k\frac{q_{3}}{r_{3}^{2}}-k\frac{q_{2}}{r_{2}^{2}}=0

Let's solve it for r(3).

\frac{3.01}{0.0429^{2}}+\frac{9.03}{r_{3}^{2}}-\frac{6.02}{0.0429^{2}}=0

r_{3}=0.0743\:  

Therefore, the third particle should be at 0.0743 m from the origin on the negative x-axis.

I hope it helps you!

What are the two requirements of a circuit so that current will flow?
antoniya [11.8K]

Answer:

-The battery-the power source

-Closed conducting loop

Explanation:

-To produce an electric current, the following requirements must be met:

-A battery-This is the energy source than will do work on the charge thus moving from a low energy location to high energy location.

-Closed Conducting Loop-The loop is usually made of copper wires due to their high electric conductivity.

A 40-cmcm-long tube has a 40-cmcm-long insert that can be pulled in and out. A vibrating tuning fork is held next to the tube. A
Licemer1 [7]

Answer:

1070 Hz

Explanation:

First, I should point out there might be a typo in the question or the question has inconsistent values. If the tube is 40 cm long, standing waves cannot be produced at 42.5 cm and 58.5 cm lengths. I assume the length is more than the value in the question then. Under this assumption, we proceed as below:

The insert in the tube creates a closed pipe with one end open and the other closed. For a closed pipe, the difference between successive resonances is a half wavelength \frac{\lambda}{2}.

Hence, we have

\dfrac{\lambda}{2}=58.5-42.5=16 \text{ cm}

\lambda=32\text{ cm}=0.32 \text{ m}.

The speed of a wave is the product of its wavelength and its frequency.

v=f\lambda

f=\dfrac{v}{\lambda}

f=\dfrac{343}{0.32}=1070 \text{ Hz}
