A particle launched between two fixed particles
On the x axis, a particle A with charge 5uC is fixed at the origin and a particle B with charge -8uC is fixed at x=4m. Particle C has a mass of 700mg and a charge of -1uC: we place it at x=2m and we give it a speed of 15i m/s. Determine the modulus of its velocity when it is at x=3m.

- In the figure, two identical spheres of radius R are set up a distance d away from each other (d is the distance from the center of one to the center of the other). One sphere has charge +Q and is centered at x = 0. The other sphere has a charge -Q and is centered at x = d. You are using this set-up to accelerate a small particle with charge q and mass m. The particle starts at a position x, and ends up at a position xy-d-x. (The distance from the positive sphere to x, is equal to the distance from x, to the negative sphere.) The values in this problem are: d-4.70 m, R = 0.16 m, Q-8.65x10 C, q-6.37x10 C m-1.87x105 kg. x = 0.78 m If the small charge starts at rest, what is the final speed of the charge when it reaches x? Give your answer in m/s to at least three digits, to avoid being counted incorrect due to rounding. Note: You can assume that the spheres are far enough apart that the charge on the sphere is uniformly distributed on their surfaces.

- For this physics II problem its saids a 4.00 g ping pong ball is suspended from a light thread and given an electric charge. The ball is then placed in a uniform electrci field of magnitude 110,00N/C which causes the ball to swing out to an angle of 23 degrees. What is the sign and magnitude of the charge on the ball? The ball is angled to the right. If you can break this down into step that would be great. Thanks!arrow_forwardThree point particles, each with a mass m and a charge of +5.0 nC, are placed at the vertices of an equilateral trian- gle with side length l fixed in place, but the third experiences an acceleration of 8.0 cm. Two of the particles are 17.4 m/s? immediately after being released from rest. What is the mass m of each particle? (Suppose that the particles are located in outer space so that you can ignore the effects of gravity.)arrow_forwardTwo conducting spheres will attract each other with a force of 0.2 N when separated at 25 cm distance. Then these two balls are connected by a conducting wire so that charge balance occurs. After the conductor wire is released, it turns out that the two balls earlier will repel with a force of 0.05 N. What is the magnitude of the charge of the two balls that at first?arrow_forward
- A positron has the charge and mass of an electron except that the charge is positive. A positron that is initially at rest at a distance of 2.0 nm away from a stationary carbon nucleus is then allowed to move freely. What will be the speed of the positron when it is infinitely far away from the carbon nucleus? Since the carbon nucleus is much more massive than the positron, it remains at rest. The mass and charge of a positron are m = 9.11 x 10-31 kg and e = 1.602 x 10-19 C, respectively, while the charge of a carbon nucleus is 6e. a. 3.0 x 106 m/s b. 2.4 x 106 m/s c. 1.8 x 106 m/s d. 3.6 x 106 m/s e. 1.2 x 106 m/sarrow_forwardAssume that the charged particle is a proton of charge q=+e.

- a) A charge 4Q is located at x = −2l on the x-axis, and a charge Q is located at x = l on the x-axis. Q > 0. Near the origin, a positive test charge q with mass m undergoes small oscillations along the x-axis. What is the frequency ω of these oscillations?

The proton may be regarded as a point charge at r = 0 the center of the atom.
