Four charges with equal magnitudes of 10.6 × 10-12 C are placed at the corners of a rectangle. The lengths of the sides of the r
cricket20 [7]

Answer:

Figure a. E_net = 99.518 N/C

Figure b. E_net = 177.151 N / C

Explanation:

Given:

- Attachment for figures missing in the question.

- The dimensions for rectangle are = 7.79 x 3.99 cm

- All four charges have equal magnitude Q = 10.6*10^-12 C

Find:

Find the magnitude of the electric field at the center of the rectangle in Figures a and b.

Solution:

- The Electric field generated by an charged particle Q at a distance r is given by:

                                         E = k*Q / r^2

- Where, k is the coulomb's constant = 8.99 * 10^9

Part a)

- First we see that the charges +Q_1 and +Q_3 produce and electric field equal but opposite in nature. So the sum of Electric fields:

                                 E_1 + E_3 = 0

- For Charges -Q_2 and +Q_4, they are equal in nature but act in the same direction towards the negative charge -Q_2. Hence, the net Electric Field at center of the rectangle can be given as:

                                  E_net = E_2 + E_4

                                  E_2 = E_4

                                  E_net = 2*E = 2*k*Q / r^2

- The distance r from each corner to mid-point of the rectangle is constant. It can be evaluated by Pythagoras Theorem as follows:

                                  r = sqrt ( (7.79/200)^2 + (3.99/200)^2 )

                                  r = sqrt ( 1.9151*10^-3 ) = 0.043762 m

- Plug the values in the E_net expression developed above:

                                  E_net = 2*(8.99*10^9)*(10.6*10^-12) / 1.9151*10^-3

                                 E_net = 99.518 N/C

Part b)

- Similarly for Figure b, for Charges -Q_2 and +Q_4, they are equal in nature but act in the same direction towards the negative charge -Q_2. Also, Charges -Q_1 and +Q_3, they are equal in nature but act in the same direction towards the negative charge -Q_1. These Electric fields are equal in magnitude to what we calculated in part a).

- To find the vector sum of two Electric Fields E_1,3 and E_2,4 we see the horizontal components of each cancels each other out. While the vertical components E_1,3 and E_2,4 are equal in magnitude and direction.

Hence,

                                  E_net = 2*E_part(a)*cos(Q)

- Where, Q is the angle between resultant, vertical in direction, and each of the electric field. We can calculate Q using trigonometry as follows:

                                  Q = arctan ( 3.99 / 7.79 ) = 27.12 degrees.

- Now, compute the net electric field E_net:

                                  E_net = 2*(99.518)*cos(27.12)

                                  E_net = 177.151 N / C

A rug sits in a sunny place on the floor for a long time. Kiara thinks that light from the sun can cause the rug's color to fade
geniusboy [140]

Answer:

Yes! Light from the sun can affect the materials certain carpets are made out of. The usual effect being the dye in the carpet being "washed out" or "dried out" as the sun beams down on it. When this happens, the carpet will usually lose its color, causing it to fade.

How much potential energy does a 40-N medicine ball gain when it is lifted 5 m?
777dan777 [17]
We know, Potential Energy = Force * Height
Here, F = 40 N
h = 5 m

Substitute their values, 
U = 40 * 5
U = 200 J

In short, Your Answer would be Option A

Hope this helps!
