A bead with a mass of 0.050 g and a charge of 20 nC is free to slide on a vertical rod. At the base of the rod is a fixed 20 nC

charge. In equilibrium, at what height above the fixed charge does the bead rest?

Answer:

height above the fixed charge is 8.571 cm

Explanation:

given data

mass m = 0.050 g = 5 × 10^{-5} kg

charge bead q1 = 20 nC = 20 × 10^{-9} C

charge base q2 = 20 nC = 20× 10^{-9} C

to find out

what height above the fixed charge does the bead rest

solution

we know that when charge at rest then downward gravitational force is balance by electrostatic force so

mg = k\frac{q1q2}{r^2}   .............1

here k is 9 × 10^{9} Nm²/C² and g = 9.8 m/s² and r is height of bread  

put here all value in equation 1

5*10^{-5}*9.8 = 9*10^{9} \frac{20*10^{-9}*20*10^{-9}}{(r^2}

r² = 7.3469 × 10^{-3}

r = 0.08571 m = 8.571 cm

so height above the fixed charge is 8.571 cm

What is the correct path of electrons?
MrRa [10]

Electrons are transferred sequentially between the two photosystems, with photosystem I acting to generate NADPH and photosystem II acting to generate ATP. The pathway of electron flow starts at photosystem II, which is homologous to the photosynthetic reaction center of R. viridis already described.

As a physics instructor hurries to the bus stop, her bus passes her, stops ahead, and begins loading passengers. She runs at 6.0
Alika [10]

velocity of the physics instructor with respect to bus

v = 6 m/s

acceleration of the bus is given as

a = 2 m/s^2

acceleration of instructor with respect to bus is given as

a = -2 m/s^2

now the maximum distance that instructor will move with respect to bus is given as

v_f^2 - v_i^2 = 2 a d

0 - 6^2 = 2(-2)(d)

-36 = - 4 d

d = 9 m

so the position of the instructor with respect to door is exceed by

\delta x = 9 - 6 = 3 m

so it will be moved maximum by 3 m distance
