Answer:

The correct option is b: 30 N.

Explanation:

First, we need to find the acceleration due to gravity (a):

y_{f} - y_{0} = v_{o}t - \frac{1}{2}a(\Delta t)^{2}   (1)

Where:

y_{f}: is the final vertical position (obtained from the graph)

y_{0}: is the initial vertical position (obtained from the graph)

v₀: is the initial speed = 0 (it is released from rest)

Δt: is the variation of time (from the graph)

From the graph, we can take the following values of height and time:

t₀ = 0 s → t_{f} = 5 s

y₀ = 300 m → y_{f} = 225 m

Now, by entering the above values into equation (1) and solving for "a" we have:

a = 2\frac{y_{0} - y_{f}}{(t_{f} - t_{0})^{2}} = 2\frac{300 m - 225 m}{(5 s - 0)^{2}} = 6 m/s^{2}

Finally, the weight of the object is:

W = ma = 5 kg*6 m/s^{2} = 30 N

Therefore, the correct option is b: 30 N.

I hope it helps you!

Complete Question

The diagram for this question is shown on the first uploaded image  

Answer:

a E =1.685*10^3 N/C

b E =36.69*10^3 N/C

c E = 0 N/C

d V = 6.7*10^3 V

e   V = 26.79*10^3V

f   V = 34.67 *10^3 V

g   V= 44.95*10^3 V

h    V= 44.95*10^3 V

i    V= 44.95*10^3 V

Explanation:

From the question we are given that

       The first charge q_1 = 2.00 \mu C = 2.00*10^{-6} C

       The second charge q_2 =1.00 \muC = 1.00*10^{-6}

      The first radius R_1 = 0.500m

      The second radius R_2 = 1.00m

 Generally \ Electric \ field = \frac{1}{4\pi\epsilon_0}\frac{q_1+\ q_2}{r^2}

And Potential \ Difference = \frac{1}{4\pi \epsilon_0}   [\frac{q_1 }{r}+\frac{q_2}{R_2} ]

The objective is to obtain the the magnitude of electric for different cases

And the potential difference for other cases

Considering a

                      r  = 4.00 m

           E = \frac{((2+1)*10^{-6})*8.99*10^9}{16}

                = 1.685*10^3 N/C

Considering b

           r = 0.700 m \ , R_2 > r > R_1

This implies that the electric field would be

            E = \frac{1}{4\pi \epsilon_0}\frac{q_1}{r^2}

             This because it the electric filed of the charge which is below it in distance that it would feel

            E = 8*99*10^9  \frac{2*10^{-6}}{0.4900}

               = 36.69*10^3 N/C

   Considering c

                      r  = 0.200 m

=>   r

 The electric field = 0

     This is because the both charge are above it in terms of distance so it wont feel the effect of their electric field

       Considering d

                  r  = 4.00 m

=> r > R_1 >r>R_2

Now the potential difference is

                  V =\frac{1}{4\pi \epsilon_0} \frac{q_1 + \ q_2}{r} = 8.99*10^9 * \frac{3*10^{-6}}{4} = 6.7*10^3 V

This so because the distance between the charge we are considering is further than the two charges given  

          Considering e

                       r = 1.00 m R_2 = r > R_1

                V = \frac{1}{4\pi \epsilon_0} [\frac{q_1}{r} +\frac{q_2}{R_2}  ] = 8.99*10^9 * [\frac{2.00*10^{-6}}{1.00} \frac{1.00*10^{-6}}{1.00} ] = 26.79 *10^3 V

          Considering f

              r = 0.700 m \ , R_2 > r > R_1

                      V = \frac{1}{4\pi \epsilon_0} [\frac{q_1}{r} +\frac{q_2}{R_2}  ] = 8.99*10^9 * [\frac{2.00*10^{-6}}{0.700} \frac{1.0*10^{-6}}{1.00} ] = 34.67 *10^3 V

          Considering g

             r =0.500\m , R_1 >r =R_1

   V = \frac{1}{4\pi \epsilon_0} [\frac{q_1}{r} +\frac{q_2}{R_2}  ] = 8.99*10^9 * [\frac{2.00*10^{-6}}{0.500} \frac{1.0*10^{-6}}{1.00} ] = 44.95 *10^3 V

          Considering h

                r =0.200\m , R_1 >R_1>r

  V = \frac{1}{4\pi \epsilon_0} [\frac{q_1}{R_1} +\frac{q_2}{R_2}  ] = 8.99*10^9 * [\frac{2.00*10^{-6}}{0.500} \frac{1.0*10^{-6}}{1.00} ] = 44.95 *10^3 V

           Considering i    

   r =0\ m \ , R_1 >R_1>r

  V = \frac{1}{4\pi \epsilon_0} [\frac{q_1}{R_1} +\frac{q_2}{R_2}  ] = 8.99*10^9 * [\frac{2.00*10^{-6}}{0.500} \frac{1.0*10^{-6}}{1.00} ] = 44.95 *10^3 V
