Answer:

0.35

Explanation:

According to Newton's second law;

\sum Fx = ma

Fm - Ff =ma

Fm is the moving force = Wsin theta

Fm = 4(9.8)sin55

Fm = 32.1N

Ff is the frictional force = nmgcos theta

Ff = n(4)(9.8)cos55

Ff = 22.48n

Acceleration a = 6.0m/s²

Substitute the given values into the formula and get the coefficient of friction

32.11-23.48n = 4(6)

32.11-24= 23.48n

8.11 = 23.48

n = 8.11/23.48

n = 0.35

Hence the coefficient of friction is 0.35

Two charges, each of 2.9 microC are placed at two corners of a square 50cm on a side, If the charges are on one side of the squa

anyanavicka [17]

Answer:

The magnitude of the electric field and direction of electric field are $146.03\times10^{3}\ N/C$ and 75.36°.

Explanation:

Given that,

First charge $q_{1}= 2.9\mu C$

Second charge $q_{2}= 2.9\mu C$

Distance between two corners r= 50 cm

We need to calculate the electric field due to other charges at one corner

For E₁

Using formula of electric field

$E_{1}=\dfrac{kq}{r'^2}$

Put the value into the formula

$E_{1}=\dfrac{9\times10^{9}\times2.9\times10^{-6}}{(50\sqrt{2}\times10^{-2})^2}$

$E_{1}=52200=52.2\times10^{3}\ N/C$

For E₂,

Using formula of electric field

$E_{1}=\dfrac{kq}{r^2}$

Put the value into the formula

$E_{2}=\dfrac{9\times10^{9}\times2.9\times10^{-6}}{(50\times10^{-2})^2}$

$E_{2}=104400=104.4\times10^{3}\ N/C$

We need to calculate the horizontal electric field

$E_{x}=E_{1}\cos\theta$

$E_{x}=52.2\times10^{3}\times\cos45$

$E_{x}=36910.97=36.9\times10^{3}\ N/C$

We need to calculate the vertical electric field

$E_{y}=E_{2}+E_{1}\sin\theta$

$E_{y}=104.4\times10^{3}+52.2\times10^{3}\sin45$

$E_{y}=141310.97=141.3\times10^{3}\ N/C$

We need to calculate the net electric field

$E_{net}=\sqrt{E_{x}^2+E_{y}^2}$

Put the value into the formula

$E_{net}=\sqrt{(36.9\times10^{3})^2+(141.3\times10^{3})^2}$

$E_{net}=146038.69\ N/C$

$E_{net}=146.03\times10^{3}\ N/C$

We need to calculate the direction of electric field

Using formula of direction

$\tan\theta=\dfrac{141.3\times10^{3}}{36.9\times10^{3}}$

$\theta=\tan^{-1}(\dfrac{141.3\times10^{3}}{36.9\times10^{3}})$

$\theta=75.36^{\circ}$

Hence, The magnitude of the electric field and direction of electric field are $146.03\times10^{3}\ N/C$ and 75.36°.

Two particles, one with charge -5.45 × 10^-6 C and one with charge 4.39 × 10^-6 C, are 0.0209 meters apart. What is the magnitud

Levart [38]

Explanation:

Given that,

Charge 1, $q_1=-5.45\times 10^{-6}\ C$

Charge 2, $q_2=4.39\times 10^{-6}\ C$

Distance between charges, r = 0.0209 m

1. The electric force is given by :

$F=k\dfrac{q_1q_2}{r^2}$

$F=9\times 10^9\times \dfrac{-5.45\times 10^{-6}\times 4.39\times 10^{-6}}{(0.0209)^2}$

F = -492.95 N

2. Distance between two identical charges, $r=0.0209\ m$

Electric force is given by :

$F=\dfrac{kq_3^2}{r^2}$

$q_3=\sqrt{\dfrac{Fr^2}{k}}$

$q_3=\sqrt{\dfrac{492.95\times (0.0209)^2}{9\times 10^9}}$

$q_3=4.89\times 10^{-6}\ C$

Hence, this is the required solution.
