Two point charges, A and B, are separated by a distance of 19.0 cm . The magnitude of the charge on A is twice that of the charg

e on B. If each charge exerts a force of magnitude 45.0 N on the other, find the magnitudes of the charges.

Answer:

QA = 19μC

QB = 9.5 μC

Explanation:

  • The force that each charge exerts on the other must obey Coulomb's Law, as follows:

       F_{AB} = \frac{k*Q_{A} * Q_{B}}{r_{AB}^{2}}  (1)

  • We know that the value of the magnitude of FAB  is 45.0 N, the distance between QA and  QB is 0.19 m, and that QA = 2*QB.
  • Replacing in (1), we can solve for QB, as follows:

      Q_{B} = \sqrt{\frac{F_{AB}*r_{AB} ^{2}}{2*k} } = \sqrt{\frac{45.0N*(0.19m) ^{2}}{2*9e9N*m2/C2} } = 9.5e-6 C  (2)

  • Since QA = 2*QB
  • ⇒ QA = 2* 9.5μC = 19.0 μC
  • ⇒ QB = 9.5μC

Why does an energy transfer not always result in phase change?
mash [69]

Answer:

These energy exchanges are not changes in kinetic energy. They are changes in bonding energy between the molecules. "If heat is coming into a substance during a phase change, then this energy is used to break the bonds between the molecules of the substance

A machine runs for 50 seconds with a steady power output of 100 watts. How many joules of work does the
liberstina [14]

Answer:

The answer to your question is when time = 50 s, work = 5000 J

                                                    when time = 90 s, work = 9000 J

Explanation:

Data

time = 50 s or 90 s

Power = 100 watts

Power is defined as the rate of work done per unit of time.

           Power = Work / time

-Solve for Work

           Work = Power x time

-Substitution

           Work = 100 x 50

-Result

           Work = 5000

2.-When time = 90 s

           Work = 100 x 90

-Result

          Work = 9000 watts

A wagon is pulled at a speed of 0.40metets/seconds by a horse exerting an 1,800 Newton's horizontal force. what is the power of
Tatiana [17]

Given:

speed of 0.40meters/seconds

1,800 Newton's horizontal force

Required:

Power of the horse

Solution:

P = F(D/T) where P is power in watts, F is the force, D is the distance and T is time

P = (1,800N) (0.40 meters/seconds)

P = 720 Watts
