An infinitely long positively charged wire with a uniform linear charge density +λ is parallel to the y axis of a Cartesian coordinate system and passes through the x axis at x=−d. At the origin, the electric field due to this charged wire has magnitude E0 and is directed to the right along the positive x axis. A second infinite charged wire, parallel to the first and with a uniform linear charge density, passes through the x axis at x=+3d. The vector sum of the electric field at the origin due to the two lines of charge has magnitude 2E0.

What is the linear charge density of the second charged wire?

The answer is 9λ and -3λ which but i dont understand how they got that answer

Moon effect. some people believe that the moon controls their activities. if the moon moves from being directly on the opposite side of earth from you to being directly overhead, by what percentage does (a) the moon's gravitational pull on you increase and (b) your weight (as measured on a scale) decrease? assume that the earth–moon (center-to-center) distance is 3.82 × 10^8 m, earth's radius is 6.37 × 10^6 m, moon's mass is 7.36 × 10^22 kg, and earth's mass is 5.98 × 10^24 kg.

Asled is being held at rest on a slope that makes an angle θ with the horizontal. after the sled is released, it slidesa distance d1 down the slope and then covers the distance d2 alongthe horizontal terrain before stopping. find the coefficient ofkinetic friction μk between the sled and the ground, assumingthat it is constant throughout the trip. find the coefficient of kinetic frictionμk. express your answer in terms of someor all of the variables d1, d2, and θ.

Acentrifuge in a medical laboratory rotates at an angular speed of 3,700 rev/min. when switched off, it rotates through 54.0 revolutions before coming to rest. find the constant angular acceleration (in rad/s2) of the centrifuge. your response is within 10% of the correct value. this may be due to roundoff error, or you could have a mistake in your calculation. carry out all intermediate results to at least four-digit accuracy to minimize roundoff error. rad/s2
