An unstrained horizontal spring has a length of 0.26 m and a spring constant of 180 N/m. Two small charged objects are attached

to this spring, one at each end. The charges on the objects have equal magnitudes. Because of these charges, the spring stretches by 0.039 m relative to its unstrained length. Determine (a) the possible algebraic signs and (b) the magnitude of the charges.

Answer:

a)

two like charges always repel each other while two unlike charges attract each other. Since the spring stretches by 0.039 m, the charges have the same sign. both charges are positive(+) or Negative (-)

b)

both q1 and q1 are 8.35 × 10⁻⁶ C or -8.35 × 10⁻⁶ C

Explanation:

Given that;

L = 0.26 m

k = 180 N/m

x = 0.039 m

a)

we know that two like charges always repel each other while two unlike charges attract each other. Since the spring stretches by 0.039 m, the charges have the same sign.

b)

Spring force F = kx

F = 180 × 0.039

F = 7.02 N

Now, Electrostatic force F = Keq²/r²

where r = L + x = ( 0.26 + 0.039 )

we know that proportionality constant in electrostatics equations Ke = 9×10⁹ kg⋅m3⋅s−2⋅C−2

so from the equation; F = Keq²/r²

Fr² = Keq²

q = √ ( Fr² / Ke )

we substitute

q = √ ( 7.02 N × ( 0.26 + 0.039 )² / 9×10⁹ )

q = √ ( 7.02 N × ( 0.26 + 0.039 )² / 9×10⁹ )

q =  √ (0.627595 / 9×10⁹)

q = √(6.97 × 10⁻¹¹)

q = 8.35 × 10⁻⁶ C

Therefore both q1 and q1 are 8.35 × 10⁻⁶ C or -8.35 × 10⁻⁶ C

If two charged objects in a laboratory are brought to a distance of 0.22 meters away from each other. What is
zysi [14]

Answer:

q_2=2.47\times 10^{-4}\ C

Explanation:

The charge on one object, q_1=9.9\times 10^{-5}\ C

The distance between the charges, r = 0.22 m

The force between the charges, F = 4,550 N

Let q₂ is the charge on the other sphere. The electrostatic force between two charges is given by the formula as follows :

F=\dfrac{kq_1q_2}{r^2}\\\\q_2=\dfrac{Fr^2}{kq_1}\\\\q_2=\dfrac{4550\times (0.22) ^2}{9\times 10^9\times 9.9\times 10^{-5}}\\\\q_2=2.47\times 10^{-4}\ C

So, the charge on the other sphere is 2.47\times 10^{-4}\ C.

Scrat [10]

Answer:

Part 1 E = 2.42 * 10^{21}  N/C

Part 2 E = 1.3 * 10^{13}  N/C

Part 3 E = 0

Explanation:

Given

Number of protons = 92

Radius of nucleus r_n = 7.4 * 10^{-15} m

Distance of the electrons r_1 = 1.0 * 10^ {-10} m

Part 1

Electric field produced by  just outside its surface

E  = \frac{q}{4\pi*E_0* r_n^2 } \\E  = \frac{9 * 10^ 9 * 92 * 1.6 * 10^{-19}}{(7.4* 10^{-15})^2} \\E = 2.42 * 10^{21}  N/C

Part 2

Electric field produced by  just outside its surface

E  = \frac{q}{4\pi*E_0* r_n^2 } \\E  = \frac{9 * 10^ 9 * 92 * 1.6 * 10^{-19}}{(1* 10^{-15})^2} \\E = 1.3 * 10^{13}  N/C

Part 3

The net electric field inside a uniform shell of negative charge is zero because the electric flux lines cancel out each other

hence, the solution is

Part 1 E = 2.42 * 10^{21}  N/C

Part 2 E = 1.3 * 10^{13}  N/C

Part 3 E = 0
