Answer:

According to Newton's second law of motion, a net force causes the acceleration of mass according to Fnet = ma. For uniform circular motion, the acceleration is centripetal acceleration: a = ac. Therefore, the magnitude of centripetal force, Fc, is F c = m a c F c = m a c .

What is a point of view of an object used to determine another object's motion

Finger [1]

<h2><em>A reference point is a place or object used for comparison to determine if something is in motion. An object is in motion if it changes position relative to a reference point. You assume that the reference point is stationary, or not moving.</em></h2>

What is matter? Give a grade 10/11/12 understanding.

lara [203]

Matter can be many things, but is mostly made of atoms. Atoms are small things that cannot be seen directly, as lights either passes through it or alters it. However, we know that atoms are made of 3 parts, those being the proton, neutron, and electron.

Protons have a positive electromagnetic charge.

Neutrons have no charge.

Electrons have a negative charge equal to the protons positive charge.

Protons and neutrons make up what's called the nucleus, which is orbited by the electrons.

Protons and neutrons also share another thing in common, that being their composition.

Until relatively recently, we thought that these were the smallest particles in the universe, and indestructible. However, modern discoveries have revealed that they are actually made of quarks and gluons.

These are actually indestructible, being part of the group that is elementary particles.

Consider a loop of wire with a resistor. In the same plane, (with switch S closed) a long wire has a current I flowing from left

Ulleksa [173]

Solution :

The given figure is a loop of a wire with a resistor.

When the switch S is closed for long time and is suddenly opened, the direction of the induced current can be find out by using the rule of right hand screw. According to the right hand screw rule, the direction of the magnetic field at the loop is in the direction that points outwards. The strength of the current rapidly decreases as it is switch off and the magnetic flux that is linked with the loop wire will also decrease.

According to the Lenz's law, the direction of the induced current must be such $\text{that it opposes}$ the decrease in the magnetic flux. It means the direction of the magnetic field must be outwards and also normal to the plane of the screen. The direction of the induced anti clockwise or from right to left in the resistance.

A) Charge q1 = +5.60 nC is on the x-axis at x = 0 and an unknown charge q2 is on the x-axis at x = -4.00 cm. The total electric

jeka94

Answer:

a) F₃₁ = 63.0 μN

b) F₃₂ = - 14.0 μN

c) q₂ = - 5.0 nC

Explanation:

Assuming that the three charges can be taken as point charges, the forces between them must obey Coulomb's Law, and can be found independent each other, applying the superposition principle.
So, we can find the force that q₁ exerts along the x-axis on q₃, as follows:

$F_{31} =\frac{k*q_{1}*q_{3} }{r_{13}^{2}} = \frac{9e9Nm2/C2*5.6e-9C*2.0e-9C}{(0.04m)^{2}} = 63.0 \mu N (1)$

Since total force exerted by q₁ and q₂ on q₃ is 49.0 μN, we can find the force exerted only by q₂ (which is along the x-axis only too) just by difference, as follows:

$F_{32} = F_{3} - F_{31} = 49.0\mu N - 63.0\mu N = -14.0 \mu N (2)$

Finally, in order to find the value of q₂, as we know the value and sign of F₃₂, we can apply again the Coulomb's Law, solving for q₂, as follows:

$q_{2} = \frac{F_{32} * r_{23}^{2} }{k*q_{3}} = \frac{(-14\mu N)*(0.08m)^{2}}{9e9Nm2/C2* 2 nC} = - 5 nC (3)$
