Answer:

South

Explanation:

If the electric field points South, then a positive particle is going to be repelled, because field lines point away from the positive end of a magnet. so the positive charge is going to go south. Please mark brainliest!

LW Hydraulic engineers in the United States often use, as a unit of volume of water, the acre-foot, defined as the volume of wat

ruslelena [56]

Answer:

volume of water is 1066.50 acre feet

Explanation:

given data

dia = 2 in = 0.166 feet

area = 26 km² = 26 × 247.105 acre = 6424.73 acre

to find out

volume of water

solution

we know volume of water is express as

volume = area × dia ....................1

put here value in equation 1

volume = 6424.73 acre × 0.166 feet

volume = 1066.50

so volume of water is 1066.50 acre feet

Three charges, Q1, Q2, and Q3 are located in a straight line. The position of Q2 is 0.301 m to the right of Q1. Q3 is located 0.

Alexxx [7]

Answer and Explanation: A charge exerts a force over another charge even if they are very far apart. This force is called Electrostatic Force.

If the two charges have the same sign, e.g. both aare positive, the force between them is opposite. If they have opposite sign, the force is towards each other. In other words, for electrostatic force, equal charges repel and different charges attract.

So,

1. If Q2 and Q3 have opposite signs, it is TRUE force in Q2 will go the left;

2. If the 2 are negative, they have the same sign, so it's FALSE force is to the right;

Sentences 3 and 4 are also TRUE due to the reasons described above;

5. If the charges have opposite signs, it means force is towards each other, or, to the right, so the sentence is TRUE;

1. Force is directly proportional to charges in Coulomb [C] and inversely proportional to distance squared in [m]:

$F=\frac{k.q.Q}{r^{2}}$

where k is a constant that equals 9 x 10⁹ N.m²/C²

Calculating force between 1 and 2:

$F_{12}=\frac{9.10^{9}(1.9.10^{-6})(2.84.10^{-6})}{(0.301)^{2}}$

$F_{12}=536.02.10^{-3}$ N

Force between 2 and 3:

$F_{23}=\frac{9.10^{9}(2.84.10^{-6})(3.03.10^{-6})}{(0.169)^{2}}$

$F_{23}=2711.63.10^{-3}$ N

Total force is the net force. Since Q2 is negative and the others are positive, force of 2 related to 1 is to left and related to 3 is to the right. Therefore, total force is the difference between those two forces:

$F_{T}=2711.63.10^{-3}-536.02.10^{-3}$

$F_{T}=2175.61.10^{-3}$ N

The total force on Q2 is 2175.61 x 10⁻³ N

2. For net force to be 0, $F_{13}=F_{23}$ . Suppose distance from 1 to 3 is x, then from 2 to 3 is $x-0.301$

Calculating:

$\frac{k(1.90.10^{-6})(3.03.10^{-6})}{x^{2}}=\frac{k(2.84.10^{-6})(3.03.10^{-6})}{(x-0.301)^{2}}$

$\frac{5.757.10^{-12}}{x^{2}} =\frac{8.6052.10^{-12}}{x^{2}-0.602x+0.090601}$

$\frac{5.757.10^{-12}}{8.6052.10^{-12}}=\frac{x^{2}}{x^{2}-0.602x+0.090601}$

$x^{2}=0.67x^{2}-0.40x+0.061$

$0.33x^{2}+0.40x-0.061=0$

roots = 0.14 or -1.35

Solving quadratic equation gives 2 roots, but one of the roots is negative. As distance is a measure that cannot be negative, the solution is x = 0.14.

The distance of Q3 relative to Q1 is 0.14 m

Which forces tend to slow down an object

laila [671]

The answer is "friction and air resistance" gravity does some of the work by keeping the object from floating away, but friction and air resistance does the biggest part. Friction is how rough the ground it meaning on tile, dirt, grass, etc... that would slow down the object and air resistance is the gravity pushing on the object also making it stop.

Hope this helps!
