A spider begins to spin a web by first hanging from a ceiling by his fine, silk fiber. He has a mass of 0.025 kg and a charge of 3.4 µC. A second spider with a charge of 4.2 µC rests in her own web exactly 2.6 m vertically below the first spider.
(a) What is the magnitude of the electric field due to the charge on the second spider at the position of the first spider?
(b) What is the tension in the silk fiber above the first spider?

a) (5.59 × 10³) N/C

b) 0.226 N directed away from the spider.

Explanation:

a) Electric field, E, felt as a result of point charge, Q, at a distance, d away is given by

E = kQ/d²

So, magnitude of the electric field due to the charge on the second spider at the position of the first spider

Q = 4.2 µC = 4.2 × 10⁻⁶ C

k = Coulomb's constant = 8.99 × 10⁹ Nm²/C

d = 2.6 m

E = (8.99 × 10⁹ × 4.2 × 10⁻⁶)/2.6²

E = 5.59 × 10³ N/C

b) Tension in the silk fiber above the spider is the net force due to the weight of spider one and the force of repulsion due the two charges.

Force due to the two charges = Eq

where q now represents the charge of the first spider at the first point, feeling the electric field calculated in (a)

F = 5.59 × 10³ × 3.4 × 10⁻⁶ = 0.01901 N directed upwards. (That is, F = + 0.019 N)

Weight of the spider = mg = 0.025 × 9.8 = 0.245 N directed downwards. (That is, W = -0.245 N)

Net force, T = mg - F = 0.245 - 0.019 = 0.226 N (that is, 0.226 N, directed upwards, away from the spider).

the cellphone, they would then know if the killer would have contacted them or always hated them. or if it was a breakup. but if that is not the case, then it would be the clothing. to put in a bullet, it would have to be put in by hands. hands have finger prints which, would have giving you the answer of who done it.

explanation:

answer: the rock sample is a sedimentary rock.

explanation:

it is given that:

mass of rock sample, m = 2.7 g

volume of rock sample,

so, density of rock sample will be

since, the density of rock sample is . hence, the rock sample is a sedimentary rock, whose densities varies between .
