Answer:
q1 = 7.6uC , -2.3 uC
q2 = 7.6uC , -2.3 uC
( q1 , q2 ) = ( 7.6 uC , -2.3 uC ) OR ( -2.3 uC , 7.6 uC )
Explanation:
Solution:-
- We have two stationary identical conducting spheres with initial charges ( q1 and q2 ). Such that the force of attraction between them was F = 0.6286 N.
- To model the electrostatic force ( F ) between two stationary charged objects we can apply the Coulomb's Law, which states:
[tex]F = k\frac{|q_1|.|q_2|}{r^2}[/tex]
Where,
k: The coulomb's constant = 8.99*10^9
- Coulomb's law assume the objects as point charges with separation or ( r ) from center to center.
- We can apply the assumption and approximate the spheres as point charges under the basis that charge is uniformly distributed over and inside the sphere.
- Therefore, the force of attraction between the spheres would be:
[tex]\frac{F}{k}*r^2 =| q_1|.|q_2| \\\\\frac{0.6286}{8.99*10^9}*(0.5)^2 = | q_1|.|q_2| \\\\ | q_1|.|q_2| = 1.74805 * 10^-^1^1[/tex] ... Eq 1
- Once, we connect the two spheres with a conducting wire the charges redistribute themselves until the charges on both sphere are equal ( q' ). This is the point when the re-distribution is complete ( current stops in the wire).
- We will apply the principle of conservation of charges. As charge is neither destroyed nor created. Therefore,
[tex]q' + q' = q_1 + q_2\\\\q' = \frac{q_1 + q_2}{2}[/tex]
- Once the conducting wire is connected. The spheres at the same distance of ( r = 0.5m) repel one another. We will again apply the Coulombs Law as follows for the force of repulsion (F = 0.2525 N ) as follows:
[tex]\frac{F}{k}*r^2 = (\frac{q_1 + q_2}{2})^2\\\\\sqrt{\frac{0.2525}{8.99*10^9}*0.5^2} = \frac{q_1 + q_2}{2}\\\\2.64985*10^-^6 = \frac{q_1 + q_2}{2}\\\\q_1 + q_2 = 5.29969*10^-^6[/tex] .. Eq2
- We have two equations with two unknowns. We can solve them simultaneously to solve for initial charges ( q1 and q2 ) as follows:
[tex]-\frac{1.74805*10^-^1^1}{q_2} + q_2 = 5.29969*10^-^6 \\\\q^2_2 - (5.29969*10^-^6)q_2 - 1.74805*10^-^1^1 = 0\\\\q_2 = 0.0000075998, -0.000002300123[/tex]
[tex]q_1 = -\frac{1.74805*10^-^1^1}{-0.0000075998} = -2.3001uC\\\\q_1 = \frac{1.74805*10^-^1^1}{0.000002300123} = 7.59982uC\\[/tex]
A soccer ball is released from rest at the top of a grassy incline. After 2.2 seconds, the ball travels 22 meters. One second later, the ball reaches the bottom of the incline. (Assume that the acceleration was constant.) How long was the incline
Answer:
x = 46.54m
Explanation:
In order to find the length of the incline you use the following formula:
[tex]x=v_ot+\frac{1}{2}at^2[/tex] (1)
vo: initial speed of the soccer ball = 0 m/s
t: time
a: acceleration
You first use the the fact that the ball traveled 22 m in 2.2 s. Whit this information you can calculate the acceleration a from the equation (1):
[tex]22m=\frac{1}{2}a(2.2s)^2\\\\a=9.09\frac{m}{s^2}[/tex] (2)
Next, you calculate the distance traveled by the ball for t = 3.2 s (one second later respect to t = 2.2s). The values of the distance calculated is the lenght of the incline:
[tex]x=\frac{1}{2}(9.09m/s^2)(3.2s)^2=46.54m[/tex] (3)
The length of the incline is 46.54 m
Two guitarists attempt to play the same note of wavelength 6.50 cm at the same time, but one of the instruments is slightly out of tune. Consequently, a 17.0-Hz beat frequency is heard between the two instruments. What were the possible wavelengths of the out-of-tune guitar’s note? Express your answers, separated by commas, in centimeters to three significant figures IN cm.
Answer:
The two value of the wavelength for the out of tune guitar is
[tex]\lambda _2 = (6.48,6.52) \ cm[/tex]
Explanation:
From the question we are told that
The wavelength of the note is [tex]\lambda = 6.50 \ cm = 0.065 \ m[/tex]
The difference in beat frequency is [tex]\Delta f = 17.0 \ Hz[/tex]
Generally the frequency of the note played by the guitar that is in tune is
[tex]f_1 = \frac{v_s}{\lambda}[/tex]
Where [tex]v_s[/tex] is the speed of sound with a constant value [tex]v_s = 343 \ m/s[/tex]
[tex]f_1 = \frac{343}{0.0065}[/tex]
[tex]f_1 = 5276.9 \ Hz[/tex]
The difference in beat is mathematically represented as
[tex]\Delta f = |f_1 - f_2|[/tex]
Where [tex]f_2[/tex] is the frequency of the sound from the out of tune guitar
[tex]f_2 =f_1 \pm \Delta f[/tex]
substituting values
[tex]f_2 =f_1 + \Delta f[/tex]
[tex]f_2 = 5276.9 + 17.0[/tex]
[tex]f_2 = 5293.9 \ Hz[/tex]
The wavelength for this frequency is
[tex]\lambda_2 = \frac{343 }{5293.9}[/tex]
[tex]\lambda_2 = 0.0648 \ m[/tex]
[tex]\lambda_2 = 6.48 \ cm[/tex]
For the second value of the second frequency
[tex]f_2 = f_1 - \Delta f[/tex]
[tex]f_2 = 5276.9 -17[/tex]
[tex]f_2 = 5259.9 Hz[/tex]
The wavelength for this frequency is
[tex]\lambda _2 = \frac{343}{5259.9}[/tex]
[tex]\lambda _2 = 0.0652 \ m[/tex]
[tex]\lambda _2 = 6.52 \ cm[/tex]
This question involves the concepts of beat frequency and wavelength.
The possible wavelengths of the out-of-tune guitar are "6.48 cm" and "6.52 cm".
The beat frequency is given by the following formula:
[tex]f_b=|f_1-f_2|\\\\[/tex]
f₂ = [tex]f_b[/tex] ± f₁
where,
f₂ = frequency of the out-of-tune guitar = ?
[tex]f_b[/tex] = beat frequency = 17 Hz
f₁ = frequency of in-tune guitar = [tex]\frac{speed\ of\ sound\ in\ air}{\lambda_1}=\frac{343\ m/s}{0.065\ m}=5276.9\ Hz[/tex]
Therefore,
f₂ = 5276.9 Hz ± 17 HZ
f₂ = 5293.9 Hz (OR) 5259.9 Hz
Now, calculating the possible wavelengths:
[tex]\lambda_2=\frac{speed\ of\ sound}{f_2}\\\\\lambda_2 = \frac{343\ m/s}{5293.9\ Hz}\ (OR)\ \frac{343\ m/s}{5259.9\ Hz}\\\\[/tex]
λ₂ = 6.48 cm (OR) 6.52 cm

The smallest shift you can reliably measure on the screen is about 0.2 grid units. This shift corresponds to the precision of positions measured with the best Earth-based optical telescopes. If you cannot measure an angle smaller than this, what is the maximum distance at which a star can be located and still have a measurable parallax
Answer:
The distance is [tex]d = 1.5 *10^{15} \ km[/tex]
Explanation:
From the question we are told that
The smallest shift is [tex]d = 0.2 \ grid \ units[/tex]
Generally a grid unit is [tex]\frac{1}{10}[/tex] of an arcsec
This implies that 0.2 grid unit is [tex]k = \frac{0.2}{10} = 0.02 \ arc sec[/tex]
The maximum distance at which a star can be located and still have a measurable parallax is mathematically represented as
[tex]d = \frac{1}{k}[/tex]
substituting values
[tex]d = \frac{1}{0.02}[/tex]
[tex]d = 50 \ parsec[/tex]
Note [tex]1 \ parsec \ \to 3.26 \ light \ year \ \to 3.086*10^{13} \ km[/tex]
So [tex]d = 50 * 3.08 *10^{13}[/tex]
[tex]d = 1.5 *10^{15} \ km[/tex]
