Answer:
X₃₁ = 0.58 m and X₃₂ = -1.38 m
Explanation:
For this exercise we use Newton's second law where the force is the Coulomb force
F₁₃ - F₂₃ = 0
F₁₃ = F₂₃
Since all charges are of the same sign, forces are repulsive
F₁₃ = k q₁ q₃ / r₁₃²
F₂₃ = k q₂ q₃ / r₂₃²
Let's find the distances
r₁₃ = x₃- 0
r₂₃ = 2 –x₃
We substitute
k q q / x₃² = k 4q q / (2-x₃)²
q² (2 - x₃)² = 4 q² x₃²
4- 4x₃ + x₃² = 4 x₃²
5x₃² + 4 x₃ - 4 = 0
We solve the quadratic equation
x₃ = [-4 ±√(16 - 4 5 (-4)) ] / 2 5
x₃ = [-4 ± 9.80] 10
X₃₁ = 0.58 m
X₃₂ = -1.38 m
For this two distance it is given that the two forces are equal
Answer:
Explanation:
a = (vf - vi) / t
a = (50 - 90) / 10.0
a = -4 km/h/s(1000 m/km / 3600 s/h)
a = - 1.11 m/s²
Answer:
1700 kg
Explanation:
Let’s use conservation of momentum
32.5 * 388 = 7.42 * mc
mc = 1699.46
mc = 1700 kg
