Answer:

$x=2.4365\ m$

and

$x=-1.4365\ m$

Explanation:

Given:

first charge, $q_1=5\times 10^{-3}\ C$

second charge, $q_2=3\times 10^{-3}\ C$

position of first charge, $x_1=-2\ m$

position of second charge, $x_2=-1\ m$

Now since there are only 2 charges and of the same sign so they repel each other. This repulsion will be zero at some point on the line joining the charges.

<u>Now, according to the condition, electric field will be zero where the effects of field due to both the charges is equal.</u>

$E_1=E_2$

since first charge is greater than the second charge so we may get a point to the right of the second charge and the distance between the two charges is 1 meter.

$\frac{1}{4\pi.\epsilon_0} \frac{q_1}{(r+1)^2} =\frac{1}{4\pi.\epsilon_0} \frac{q_2}{(r)^2}$

$\frac{5\times 10^{-3}}{(r+1)^2} = \frac{3\times 10^{-3}}{(r)^2}$

$3(r^2+1+2r)=5r^2$

$2r^2-6r-3=0$

$r=3.4365 \&\ r=-0.4365$

Since we have assumed that the we may get a point to the right of second charge so we calculate with respect to the origin.

$x=-1+3.4365=2.4365\ m$

and

$x=-1-0.4365=-1.4365\ m$

a 74.9 kg person sits at rest on an icy pond holding a physics book. he throws the physics book west at 8.25 m/s and he recoils

kifflom [539]

Answer:

1.95 kg

Explanation:

Momentum is conserved.

m₁ u₁ + m₂ u₂ = m₁ v₁ + m₂ v₂

0 = (74.9) (-0.215) + m (8.25)

m = 1.95

Three pendulums all have the same length and start from the same height. The first pendulum is very light and has a mass of 67 g

vovikov84 [41]

Answer:

All three pendulum will attain same velocity

Explanation:

All three pendulum will attain same velocity irrespective of their mass difference in isolated system (means where air drag are negligible) and at same length

As you know when velocity is calculated we can not take mass into account.

A speaker is designed for wide dispersion for a high frequency sound. What should the diameter of the circular opening be for a

andriy [413]

To solve this problem we will apply the concepts related to wavelength, as well as Rayleigh's Criterion or Optical resolution, the optical limit due to diffraction can be calculated empirically from the following relationship,

$sin\theta = 1.22\frac{\lambda}{d}$
