Two long straight parallel lines, #1 and #2, carry uniform positive linear charge densities. The charge density on line #2 is twice as great as the charge density on line #1
The locus of points where the electric field due to these lines is zero is A) along a line between the lines closer to line #2 than line #1. B) at a point midway between the lines. C) along a line perpendicular to lines #1 and #2. D) along a line between the lines closer to line #1 than line #2.
A very light ideal spring of spring constant (force constant) 2.5 N/cm is 15 cm long when nothing is attached to it. It is now used to pull horizontally on a 12.5-kg box on a perfectly smooth horizontal floor
You observe that the box starts from rest and moves 96 cm during the first 1.6 s of its motion with constant acceleration. How long is the spring during this motion?
