Answer:
The ratio of the time he is above ymax /2 to the time it takes him to go from the floor to that height = 0.707
Explanation:
The mathematical derivation and steps is as shown in the attached file.
Answer
given,
Side of copper plate, L = 55 cm
Electric field, E = 82 kN/C
a) Charge density,σ = ?
using expression of charge density
σ = E x ε₀
ε₀ is Permittivity of free space = 8.85 x 10⁻¹² C²/Nm²
now,
σ = 82 x 10³ x 8.85 x 10⁻¹²
σ = 725.7 x 10⁻⁹ C/m²
σ = 725.7 nC/m²
change density on the plates are 725.7 nC/m² and -725.7 nC/m²
b) Total change on each faces
Q = σ A
Q = 725.7 x 10⁻⁹ x 0.55²
Q = 219.52 nC
Hence, charges on the faces of the plate are 219.52 nC and -219.52 nC
The color components that will have the lowest index of refraction will be orange.
