A charge q1 = +5.00 nC is placed at the origin of an xy-coordinate system, and a charge q2 = -2.00 nC is placed on the positive x-axis at x = 4.00 cm. (a) If a third charge q3 = +6.00 nC is now placed at the point x = 4.00 cm, y = 3.00 cm, find the x- and y-components of the total force exerted on this charge by the other two. (b) Find the magnitude and direction of this force

The x- and y-components of the total force exerted is

$F_{31 +32} = (8.64i - 5.52 j) *10^{-5}$

The magnitude of the force is

$|F_{31 +32}| = 10.25 *10^{-5} N$

The direction of the force is

$\theta =327.43 ^o$ Clockwise from x-axis

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The magnitude of the first charge is $q_1 = +5.00nC = 5.00*10^{-9}C$

The magnitude of the second charge is $q_2 = -2.00nC = -2.00*10^{-9}C$

The position of the second charge from the first one is $d_{12} = 4.00i \ cm = \frac{4.00i}{100} = 4.00i *10^{-2} m$

The magnitude of the third charge is $q_3 = +6.00nC = 6.00*10^{-9}C$

The position of the third charge from the first one is $\= d_{31} = (4i + 3j) cm = \frac{ (4i + 3j)}{100} = (4i + 3j) *10^{-2}m$

$|d_{31}| =(\sqrt{4 ^2 + 3^2}) *10^{-2} m$

$|d_{31}| =5 *10^{-2} m$

The position of the third charge from the second one is

$\= d_{32} = 3j cm = 3j *10^{-2}m$

$|d_{32}| =(\sqrt{ 3^2}) *10^{-2} m$

$|d_{32}| =3 *10^{-2} m$

The force acting on the third charge due to the first and second charge is mathematically represented as

$F_{31 +32} = \frac{kq_3 q_1}{|d_{31}| ^3} *\= d_{31} + \frac{kq_3 q_2}{|d_{32}| ^3} *\= d_{32}$

Substituting values

$F_{31 +32} = \frac{9 *10^9 * 6 *10^{-9} * 5*10^{-9} }{(5*10^{-2}) ^3} * (4i + 3j ) *10^{-2} \\ \ + \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \frac{9 *10^9 * 6 *10^{-9} * -2*10^{-9} }{(5*10^{-2}) ^3} * (4i + 3j ) *10^{-2}$

$F_{31 +32} = 2.16 *10^{-5} (4i + 3j) - 12*10^{-5} j$

$F_{31 +32} = (8.64i - 5.52 j) *10^{-5}$

The magnitude of $F_{31 +32}$ is mathematically evaluated as

$|F_{31 +32}| = \sqrt{(8.64^2 + 5.52 ^2) } *10^{-5}$

$|F_{31 +32}| = 10.25 *10^{-5} N$

The direction is obtained as

$tan \theta = \frac{-5.52 *10^{-5}}{8.64 *10^{-5}}$

$\theta = tan ^{-1} [-0.63889]$

$\theta = - 32.57 ^o$

$\theta = 360 - 32.57$

$\theta =327.43 ^o$

Answer from: Quest

answer;

d. are made mostly of liquid

explanation;

-the general composition and structure planets includes; they have a thick gas and liquid layer covering a small,solid core. mostly the gases are hydrogen and helium atmosphere and layers of liquid hydrogen. for instance neptune and uranus are examples of the outer planets, they have a core covered by ice and ammonia.

-neptune's atmosphere is hydrogen and helium with a bit of methane so there is no oxygen to breath and the interior is made up of frozen water and ammonia with a rock and iron core. thus, there is no liquid water or solid surface to survive.

Answer from: Quest

air exerts forces on falling objects near earth’s surface.

explanation:

the term 'free falls' refer to object that are falling towards the earth, in a situation in which gravity is the only force acting on the object.

for an object in free fall, the acceleration is constant (g, the gravitational acceleration), and so the velocity of the object constantly increases.

for objects near earth's surface, there is always another force acting on the object: the resistance due to the air. this force is opposed to the direction of fall of the object, and it is proportional to the velocity of the object, so as the object falls down, this force increases up to a point when it balances the force of gravity, and the object continues its motion at constant velocity (called terminal velocity). since in this case gravity is not the only force acting on the object, we are not in a situation of free fall.

Aperson gives a shopping cart an initial push along a horizontal floor to get it moving, and then lets go. the cart travels forward along the floor, gradually slowing as it moves. consider the horizontal force(s) on the cart while it is moving forward and slowing. which of the following statements is correct? (a) both a forward and a backward force are acting on the cart, but the forward force is larger. (b) only a forward force is acting which diminishes with time. (c) both a forward and a backward force are acting on the cart, but the backward force is larger. (d) only a backward force is acting, no forward force.
