Question

Transcribed Image Text:Two point charges are placed on the x-axis: 0.500 µC at x = 0 and -0.200 μC at x = 20.0 cm.
At what point(s), if any, on the x-axis is the electric potential
equal to zero? (Give your answer in the form of a
comma-separated list. Enter DNE if no such point exists.)

- A 0.250 kg lump of clay is dropped from a height of 1.45 m onto the floor. It sticks to the floor and does not bounce. What is the magnitude of the impulse J imparted to the clay by the floor during the impact? Assume that the acceleration due to gravity is g = 9.81 m/s². J = kg. m/s The force exerted by the floor on the clay is plotted as a function of time in the figure. What must have been the maximum force Fmax exerted by the floor on the clay?
