a) The electric potential at a position located a distance of
21.9 mm from a positive point charge of 8.20×10-9C and
13.9 mm from a second point charge is 1.26 kV. Calculate the value
of the second charge.
_____???
b) The potential difference between two parallel conducting
plates in vacuum is 175 V. An alpha particle with mass of
6.50×10-27 kg and charge of 3.20×10-19 C is
released from rest near the positive plate. What is the kinetic
energy of the alpha particle when it reaches the other plate? The
distance between the plates is 29.0 cm.
_____???
c) A positive charge of 4.80 μC is fixed in place. From a
distance of 4.00 cm a particle of mass 5.20 g and charge +3.80 μC
is fired with an initial speed of 76.0 m/s directly toward the
fixed charge. How close to the fixed charge does the particle get
before it comes to rest and starts traveling away?
_____???
d) A charge Q1 = 1.23 μC is at rest and is
located 2.10 cm away from another fixed charge
Q2 = 1.75 μC. The first charge is then
released. Calculate the kinetic energy of charge
Q1 when it is 5.50 cm away from charge
Q2.
_____???
e) To recharge a 15.0 V battery, a battery charger must move
3.00×105 C of charge from the negative terminal to the
positive terminal. How much work is done by the battery
charger?
_____???

Asteroids can be classified into two broad groups based on their composition and location: carbon-rich asteroids dominate the outer part of the asteroid belt, whereas metal-rich asteroids dominate the inner part of the belt. Analysis of the fragment we have discussed in this project reveals that it contains nearly equal amounts of metals and carbon. Can you conclude that the original whole asteroid had a similar composition? Can you conclude with a high degree of confidence that the asteroid originated in the middle regions of the asteroid belt? Explain your reasoning. If you would need more data from the asteroid analysis, what would you like to see?

A textbook of mass 2.08 kg rests on a frictionless, horizontal surface. A cord attached to the book passes over a pulley whose diameter is 0.160 m , to a hanging book with mass 3.10 kg . The system is released from rest, and the books are observed to move a distance 1.30 m over a time interval of 0.770 s . What is the moment of inertia of the pulley about its rotation axis?

Naive reasoning suggests that a string theory vacuum with cosmological constant Lambda1 is always unstable as long as there is a string theory vacuum with cosmological constant Lambda2 < Lambda1 since the later is a state with lower energy density. If it's true, there should be very few stable vacua since these would be the vacua with the lowest possible cosmological constant. These vacua would probably have a Planckian-size cosmological constant and therefore be highly non-classical.
However, I suspect there is something wrong with this line of reasoning. Probably I am thoroughly confused about something.
Also, how to compare stability of vacua with different number of large dimensions? Comparing cosmological constants doesn't feel to make sense.

The figure shows two masses connected by a cord passing over a pulley of radius R0 and moment of inertia I. Mass M1slides on a frictionless surface, and M2 hangs freely.
(a) Determine a formula for the angular momentum of the system about the pulley axis, as a function of the speed v of mass M1 or M2. (Use R0 for R0, M1 for M1, M2 for M2, I,v and g for gravity, as necessary.)
(b) Determine a formula for the acceleration of the masses.
