Magnitude of fixed charge as multiple of electrons charge : Four point charges, q, are fixed to the four corners of a square that is 11.2 cm on a side. An electron is suspended above a point at which its weight is balanced by the electrostatic force due to the four point charges, at a distance of 11 nm abo..

Enter the magnitude of the force : Two charged objects experience a mutual repulsive force of 0.71 N. If the charge of one of the objects is reduced by half and the distance separating the objects is quadrupled, what is the new force? (Enter the magnitude of the force.)

Specific volume of liquid water : Liquid water at 25C and 1 bar fills a rigid vessel If heat is added to the water until it's temperature reaches 50C, what pressure is developed? The average value of B between 25 and 50C is 36.2x10^-5/K. The value of K at 1 bar and 50C is 4.42x10^-5/..

What is relative speed of the laboratory and rocket frames : Two firecrackers explode at the same place in a laboratory and are separated by a time of 3 years as measured on the laboratory clock.

When the elevator reaches the top of the trajectory : A person rides in an elevator that is shot upward out of a cannon. Think of the elevator after it leaves the cannon and is moving freely in the gravitational field of Earth. Neglect air resistance

Find the heat added to the gas : 3.09 moles of neon, a monatomic gas, starts out at conditions of standard temperature and pressure. The gas is heated at constant volume until its pressure is tripled, then further heated at constant pressure until its volume is doubled. Assume that ..

Find the temperature T in kelvins : A Carnot engine uses hot and cold reservoirs that have temperatures of 1850 and 845 K, respectively. The input heat for this engine is QH. The work delivered by the engine is used to operate a Carnot heat pump. The pump removes heat from the 845-K re..

In region of two-dimensional space-three fixed charges : In a region of two-dimensional space, there are three fixed charges: +1 mC at (0, 0), −2 mC at (12 mm, -7 mm), and +3 mC at (-6 mm, 18 mm). What is the direction of the magnitude on the −2-mC charge counterclockwise from the +x-axis?
