part a
in a perfectly elastic collision between two perfectly rigid objects
the momentum of each object is conserved.
both the momentum and the kinetic energy of the system are conserved.
the kinetic energy of the system is conserved, but the momentum of the system is not conserved.
the kinetic energy of each object is conserved.
the momentum of the system is conserved but the kinetic energy of the system is not conserved.

two charges are fixed in place on the x-axis as shown. the charge at x = 0 is negative and has magnitude q = 2 μcoulombs (1 μcoulomb = 10-6 coulombs). the charge at x = d, (d = +12 cm), is positive and has magnitude q = 4 μcoulombs. find a point x = xo along the x-axis at which the electric field is zero.

force is mass*acceleration.

we have a very small mass: 11.4*0.001 kg

if we want 0.035n of force, we need an acceleration:

0.035 = 11.4*0.001*a

a = 0.035/(11.4*0.001) m/s^2
