The magnitude of the electric field will be the greatest at the point where it is closest,to its charges.

Yes ,there is a point where the field will be zero.

what is an electric field?

The region where an electrostatic force is experienced by a charged entity is known as the electric field at a point.

As per the principle of field lines and vectors,where the field lines are in a close manner together,the field will be strongest.However ,where the field lines are in a manner apart,the field will be the weakest.

As per the concept,the electric field will be the greatest at the point where it is closest to its charges.For like charges, the electric field will be zero closer to the smaller charge and will be along the line joining the two charges. For opposite charges of equal magnitude, there will not be any zero electric fields.

Thus,we can conclude that there will be a point where the electric field is zero

The distance between the lenses in a compound microscope is 18 cm. The focal length of the objective is 1.5 cm. If the microscop
Blababa [14]

Answer:

The focal length of eye piece is 6.52 cm.

Explanation:

Given that,

Angular Magnification of the microscope M = -46

the distance between the lens in microscope L= 16 cm

The focal length of objective f₀ = 1.5 cm

Normal near point N = 25 cm

Have to find focal length of eye piece f ₙ =?

The angular magnification is given by

M ≈ - (L-fₙ)N/f₀fₙ

Rearranging for fₙ

fₙ =L(1 - Mf₀/N)⁺¹

   =18/2.76

fₙ =  6.52 cm

The focal length of eye piece is 6.52 cm.

Review 1: A plane is located x = 40 miles (horizontally) away from an airport at an altitude of h miles. Radar at the airport de
-Dominant- [34]

Explanation:

Let h is the height of the plane above ground. x is the horizontal distance between the ground and the airport. Let s(t) is the distance between the plane and the airport. So,

s(t)^2={h^2+x^2}...........(1)

Given, h = 4, x = 40 and s(t) = -20 mph

Differentiate equation (1) wrt t

2s(t)s'(t)=2x(t)x'(t)

x'(t)=\dfrac{s(t)s'(t)}{x(t)}

When x = 40, s(t)=\sqrt{40^2+4^2}=40.19\ m

x'(t)=\dfrac{-240s(t)}{x(t)}

x'(t)=\dfrac{-240\times 40.19}{40}

x'(t)=-241.14\ m/s

So, the speed of the airplane is 241.14  m/s. Hence, this is the required solution.

A positive point charge q is placed at the center of an uncharged metal sphere insulated from the ground. The outside of the sph
Olenka [21]

Answer:

B.The charge on A is -q; there is no charge on B.

Explanation:

We are given that

Charge=+q

We have to find the correct statement.

When positive charge is placed at center of uncharged metal sphere

insulated from the ground then negative charge(-q) induced on inner

surface  A  of sphere  and the outer  surface B  is grounded then the surface is neutral .

It means there is no charge on surface B.

Hence, option B is true .

B.The charge on A is -q; there is no charge on B.
