(b) Find the magnitude and direction of this force

Respuesta :

Answer:

a

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

           [tex]F_{31 +32} = (8.64i - 5.52 j) *10^{-5}[/tex]

b

 The magnitude of the force is  

            [tex]|F_{31 +32}| = 10.25 *10^{-5} N[/tex]

   The direction of the force is  

         [tex]\theta =327.43 ^o[/tex]   Clockwise from x-axis

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

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

      The magnitude of the second charge is [tex]q_2 = -2.00nC = -2.00*10^{-9}C[/tex]

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

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

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

                [tex]|d_{31}| =(\sqrt{4 ^2 + 3^2}) *10^{-2} m[/tex]

                [tex]|d_{31}| =5 *10^{-2} m[/tex]

        The position of the third charge from the second  one is

                [tex]\= d_{32} = 3j cm = 3j *10^{-2}m[/tex]

               [tex]|d_{32}| =(\sqrt{ 3^2}) *10^{-2} m[/tex]

               [tex]|d_{32}| =3 *10^{-2} m[/tex]

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

           [tex]F_{31 +32} = \frac{kq_3 q_1}{|d_{31}| ^3} *\= d_{31} + \frac{kq_3 q_2}{|d_{32}| ^3} *\= d_{32}[/tex]

 Substituting values

          [tex]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}[/tex]

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

            [tex]F_{31 +32} = (8.64i - 5.52 j) *10^{-5}[/tex]

The magnitude of     [tex]F_{31 +32}[/tex]  is mathematically evaluated as

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

             [tex]|F_{31 +32}| = 10.25 *10^{-5} N[/tex]

The direction is obtained as

            [tex]tan \theta = \frac{-5.52 *10^{-5}}{8.64 *10^{-5}}[/tex]

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

             [tex]\theta = - 32.57 ^o[/tex]

             [tex]\theta = 360 - 32.57[/tex]

            [tex]\theta =327.43 ^o[/tex]

               

                         

Part A: The force on the third charge is [tex]4.32 i - 0.36 j \times 10^{-6}\;\rm N[/tex].

Part B: The magnitude and direction of the force is [tex]4.33 \times 10^{-6}\;\rm N[/tex] .

How do you calculate the force?

Given that there are three-point charges placed on the xy-coordinate system.

  • q1 = +5.00 nC placed at the origin.
  • q2 = -2.00 nC is placed on the positive x-axis at x = 4.00 cm.
  • q3 = +6.00 nC is placed at the point x = 4.00 cm, y = 3.00 cm.

The position of q2 is given as below.

[tex]d = 3 \times 10^{-2}\;\rm m[/tex]

[tex]\vec{d} = 3j \times 10^{-2} \;\rm m[/tex]

The position of q3 is given as below.

[tex]d' = \sqrt{3^2 +4^2} \times 10^{-2}\;\rm m[/tex]

[tex]d' = 5 \times 10^{-2}\;\rm m[/tex]

[tex]\vec{d'} = (4i+3j) \times 10^{-2} \;\rm m[/tex]

The attachment shows the position of three-point charges.

Part A

The force acting on the third charge is due to the first and second charges are given below.

[tex]F = \dfrac {kq_1q_3}{(d')^2} \times \vec {d'} + \dfrac {kq_2q_3}{(d)^2} \times \vec{d}[/tex]

[tex]F = \dfrac {9\times10^9 \times 5 \times 10^{-9} \times 6 \times 10^{-9}} {(5\times10^{-2})^2} \times (4i+3j) \times 10^{-2} + \dfrac {9\times10^9 \times (-2) \times 10^{-9} \times 6 \times 10^{-9}} {(3\times10^{-2})^2} \times (3j) \times 10^{-2}[/tex]

[tex]F = 1.08 \times 10^{-6} \times (4i+3j) -1.2 \times 10^{-6} \times 3j[/tex]

[tex]F = 10^{-6} ( 4.32 i + 3.24 j - 3.6 j)[/tex]

[tex]F = 4.32 i - 0.36 j \times 10^{-6}\;\rm N[/tex]

The force on the third charge is [tex]4.32 i - 0.36 j \times 10^{-6}\;\rm N[/tex].

Part B

The magnitude of the force is given below.

[tex]|F| = \sqrt{(4.32)^2 + (-0.36)^2} \times 10^{-6}[/tex]

[tex]|F| = 4.33 \times 10^{-6}\;\rm N[/tex]

Hence the magnitude and direction of the force is [tex]4.33 \times 10^{-6}\;\rm N[/tex] .
