There are four charges, each with a magnitude of 1.96 µc. two are positive and two are negative. the charges are fixed to the corners of a 0.47-m square, one to a corner, in such a way that the net force on any charge is directed toward the center of the square. find the magnitude of the net electrostatic force experienced by any charge.

Magnitude of the resultant force (Fn₁) on q₁

Fn₁ = 0.142N (directed toward the center of the square)

Explanation:

Theory of electrical forces

Because the particle q₁ is close to three other electrically charged particles, it will experience three electrical forces and the solution of the problem is of a vector nature.

Graphic attached

The directions of the individual forces exerted by q₂, q₃ and q₄ on q₁ are shown in the attached figure.

The force (F₁₄) of q₄ on q₁ is repulsive because the charges have equal signs and the forces (F₁₂) and (F₁₃) of q₂ and q₃ on q₁ are attractive because the charges have opposite signs.

Calculation of the forces exerted on the charge q₁

To calculate the magnitudes of the forces exerted by the charges q₂, q₃, and q₄ on the charge q₁ we apply Coulomb's law:

$F_{12} = \frac{k*q_1*q_2}{r_{12}^2}$ : Magnitude of the electrical force of q₂ over q₁. Equation((1)

$F_{13} = \frac{k*q_1*q_3}{r_{13}^2}$ : Magnitude of the electrical force of q₃ over q₁. Equation (2)

$F_{14} = \frac{k*q_1*q_4}{r_{14}^2}$ : Magnitude of the electrical force of q₄ over q₁. Equation (3)

Equivalences

1µC= 10⁻⁶ C

Known data

q₁=q₄= 1.96 µC = 1.96*10⁻⁶C

q₂=q₃= -1.96 µC = -1.96*10⁻⁶C

r₁₂= r₁₃ = 0.47m: distance between q₁ and q₂ and q₁ and q₄

$r_{14} = \sqrt{0.47^2+ 0.47^2}=0.664m$

k=8.99x10⁹N*m²/C² : Coulomb constant

F₁₂ calculation

We replace data in the equation (1):

$F_{12} = \frac{8.99*10^9*(1.96*10^{-6})^2}{0.47^2}$

F₁₂ = 0.156 N Direction of the positive x axis (+x)

F₁₃ calculation

We replace data in the equation (2):

$F_{13} = \frac{8.99*10^9*(1.96*10^{-6})^2}{0.47^2}$

F₁₃ = 0.156 N Direction of the negative y axis (-y)

Magnitude of the net electrostatic force between F₁₃ and F₁₂

$F_{n23}= \sqrt{0.156^2+0.156^2} = 0.22N$ (directed toward the center of the square)

F₁₄ calculation

We replace F₁₄ data in the equation (3):

$F_{14} = \frac{8.99*10^9*(1.96*10^{-6})^2}{0.664^2}$

F₁₄ = 0.078 N (In the opposite direction to Fn₂₃)

Calculation of the resulting force on q₁: Fn₁

Fn₁ = Fn₂₃ - F₁₄ = 0.22 - 0.078 = 0.142 N

answer and explanation;

composition refers to both the types of minerals within a rock and the overall chemical makeup of the rock while texture refers to the size and arrangement of the minerals or grains that make up a rock. both composition and texture can be used to classify rocks, such as igneous rocks. texture describes how the rock became solid or crystallized from liquid, melted rock. composition of a rock describes the minerals that make up a particular rock.

as we probably am aware that our atmosphere or air have various levels, each level has different gasses, and each gas has another porousness. at the point when the light originates from lower porousness to higher penetrability, it alters its course. with the goal that implies that when the light originates from the moon to the earth, it alters it's course a lot more occasions. it essentially implies that the state of the light piece of the moon is changed on the earth.

not copied too! hope this !
