Three charged particles are placed at each of three corners of an equilateral triangle whose sides are of length 2.1 cm . Two of the particles have a negative charge: q1 = -8.0 nC and q2 = -16.0 nC . The remaining particle has a positive charge, q3 = 8.0 nC . What is the net electric force acting on particle 3 due to particle 1 and particle 2?

A) Find the net force ΣF⃗ 3 acting on particle 3 due to the presence of the other two particles. Report you answer as a magnitude ΣF3 and a direction θ measured from the positive x axis.

Please show the process! I've tried everything I can think of.

Williams-Santana, Inc., is a manufacturer of high-tech industrial parts that was started in 2006 by two talented engineers with little business training. In 2018, the company was acquired by one of its major customers. As part of an internal audit, the following facts were discovered. The audit occurred during 2018 before any adjusting entries or closing entries were prepared.

  1. A five-year casualty insurance policy was purchased at the beginning of 2016 for $35,500. The full amount was debited to insurance expense at the time.
  2. Effective January 1, 2018, the company changed the salvage value used in calculating depreciation for its office building. The building cost $614,000 on December 29, 2007, and has been depreciated on a straight-line basis assuming a useful life of 40 years and a salvage value of $110,000. Declining real estate values in the area indicate that the salvage value will be no more than $27,500.
  3. On December 31, 2017, merchandise inventory was overstated by $25,500 due to a mistake in the physical inventory count using the periodic inventory system.
  4. The company changed inventory cost methods to FIFO from LIFO at the end of 2018 for both financial statement and income tax purposes. The change will cause a $965,000 increase in the beginning inventory at January 1, 2019.
  5. At the end of 2017, the company failed to accrue $15,600 of sales commissions earned by employees during 2017. The expense was recorded when the commissions were paid in early 2018.
  6. At the beginning of 2016, the company purchased a machine at a cost of $730,000. Its useful life was estimated to be 10 years with no salvage value. The machine has been depreciated by the double-declining balance method. Its book value on December 31, 2017, was $467,200. On January 1, 2018, the company changed to the straight-line method.
  7. Warranty expense is determined each year as 1% of sales. Actual payment experience of recent years indicates that 0.80% is a better indication of the actual cost. Management effects the change in 2018. Credit sales for 2018 are $4,100,000; in 2017 they were $3,800,000.


Required:
For each situation:
1. Identify whether it represents an accounting change or an error. If an accounting change, identify the type of change. For accounting errors, choose "Not applicable".
2. Prepare any journal entry necessary as a direct result of the change or error correction as well as any adjusting entry for 2018 related to the situation described. (Ignore tax effects.)

Companies use demographic information to target specific groups of people to create a more meaningful piece of the market in which they can supply. In business, making this decision to target some while not targeting others can be difficult since expansion could be limited based on that specific groups’ dynamics.

  1. Select a characteristic that business use to segment the population and explain how that can benefit the company’s sales.
  2. Explain how targeting one group is not considered discrimination and how companies can avoid getting in trouble from making such a selection.
  3. Lastly, how does the market segmentation create or increase customer loyalty within the market.

3.26Daily activity. It appears that people who are mildly obese are less active than leaner people. One study looked at the average number of minutes per day that people spend standing or walking.10 Among mildly obese people, minutes of activity varied according to the N(373, 67) distribution. Minutes of activity for lean people had the N(526, 107) distribution. Within what limits do the active minutes for about 95% of the people in each group fall? Use the 68–95–99.7 rule.

3.27Low IQ test scores. Scores on the Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale (WAIS) are approximately Normal with mean 100 and standard deviation 15. People with WAIS scores below 70 are considered intellectually disabled when, for example, applying for Social Security disability benefits. According to the 68–95–99.7 rule, about what percent of adults are intellectually disabled by this criterion?

3.28Standard Normal drill.In each case, sketch a standard Normal curve and shade the area representing the region.

(a)z ≤ −2.15

(b)z ≥ −2.15

(c)z > 1.57

(d)−2.15 < z < 1.57

3.29Standard Normal drill.

(a)Find the number z such that the proportion of observations that are less than z in a standard Normal distribution is 0.3.

(b)Find the number z such that 35% of all observations from a standard Normal distribution are greater than z.

3.30Fruit flies. The common fruit fly Drosophila melano-gaster is the most studied organism in genetic research because it is small, is easy to grow, and reproduces rapidly. The length of the thorax (where the wings and legs attach) in a population of male fruit flies is approximately Normal with mean 0.800 millimeters (mm) and standard deviation 0.078 mm.

(a)What proportion of flies have thorax length less than 0.6 mm?

(b)What proportion have thorax length greater than 0.9 mm?

(c)What proportion have thorax length between 0.6 mm and 0.9 mm?

3.33A milling machine. Automated manufacturing operations are quite precise but still vary, often with distributions that are close to Normal. The width in inches of slots cut by a milling machine follows approximately the N(0.8750, 0.0012) distribution. The specifications allow slot widths between 0.8725 and 0.8775 inch. What proportion of slots meet these specifications?

3.37The middle half. The quartiles of any distribution are the values with cumulative proportions 0.25 and 0.75. They span the middle half of the distribution. What are the quartiles of the distribution of gas mileage?

3.44Grading managers. Some companies “grade on a bell curve” to compare the performance of their managers and professional workers. This forces the use of some low performance ratings so that not all workers are listed as “above average.” Ford Motor Company’s “performance management process” for this year assigned 10% A grades, 80% B grades, and 10% C grades to the company’s managers. Suppose Ford’s performance scores really are Normally distributed. This year, managers with scores less than 25 received C grades and those with scores above 475 received A grades. What are the mean and standard deviation of the scores?

I have a couple questions the first one is:

1. Combine equations 1,2,3 to obtain equation 4. Then provide an equation for calculating the heat of reaction in kJ/mol.

Equation 1: MgO(s)+2HCl(aq)--->MgCl2(aq)+H2O(l)

Equation 2: Mg(s)+2HCl(aq)---->MgCl2(aq)+H2(g)

Equation 3: H2(g)+1/2O2(g)---->H2O(l)

2. Use Hess's Law to calculate the heat of reaction for the decompostion of methanol:

2CH3OH(l)--->2CH4(g)+O2(g)      Change Heat of reaction =?

Using this information:

H2O(g)--->H2(g)+1/2O2(g)            Change Heat= +241.82 kJ

CH4(g)+H2O(g)---->CO(g)+3H2(g) Change Heat = +206.10 kJ

2H2(g)+CO(g)---->CH3OH(l) Change Heat = -128.33 kJ

Maybe my assignment is poorly worded but I am confused as what to do, thank you for any help.
