A 6.0 mC charge is placed at the origin and a second charge is placed on the x-axis at x = 0.30 m. If the resulting force on the second charge is 5.4 N in the positive x-direction, what is the value of its charge?

Air enters a gas turbine with two stages of compression and two stages of expansion at 100 kpa and 17°c. this system uses a regenerator as well as reheating and intercooling – the intercooler returns the air to the inlet temperature. the pressure ratio across each compressor is 4 ; 300 kj/kg of heat are added to the air in each combustion chamber; and the regenerator operates perfectly while increasing the temperature of the cold air by 20°c. determine the system’s thermal efficiency. assume isentropic operations for all compressor and the turbine stages and use constant specific heats at room temperature.

A1500 w electric heater is plugged into the outlet of a 120 v circuit that has a 20 a circuit breaker. you plug an electric hair dryer into the same outlet. the hair dryer has power settings of 600 w, 900 w , 1200 w, and 1500 w. you start with the hair dryer on the 600 w setting and increase the power setting until the circuit breaker trips. under what setting does the circuit breaker trip.
