vector a = 3i - 2j - k and vector b = i + 4j + k, the unit vector, n, normal to the plane is (7i - j + 7k)/3√11

What is a vector?

A vector is a quantity having direction as well as magnitude.

Vectors can especially be used in determining the position of one point in space relative to another.

From the question,

The normal vector to the plane is c = a × b

we have that, a = 3i - 2j - k and b = i + 4j + k,

c = a × b

c = (3i - 2j - k) × (i + 4j + k)

= 3i × i + (- 2j) × i + (-k) × i + 3i × 4j + (- 2j) × 4j + (-k) × 4j + 3i × k + (- 2j) × k + (-k) × k

= 3i × i - 2j × i - k × i + 12i × j - 8j × j - 4k × 4j + 3i × k - 2j × k - k × k

It is known that

i × i = 0,

j × j = 0 and

k × k = 0.

we also have that

c = 3(0) - 2(-k) - (-j) + 12k - 8(0) - 16(-i) + 3(-j) - 2i - 0

c = 0 + 2k + j + 12k - 0 + 16i - 3j - 2i

c = 16i - 2i + j - 3j + 2k + 12k

c = 14i -2j + 14k

The unit vector normal to the plane n = c/ |c|

where |c| is the magnitude of c

= √(14² + (-2)² + 14²) = √(196 + 4 + 196)

= √396

= √(36 × 11)

= 6√11

we can write that n = c/|c|

= (14i -2j + 14k)/6√11

we simplify further

= 2(7i - j + 7k)/6√11

= (7i - j + 7k)/3√11

So, the unit vector normal to the plane is (7i - j + 7k)/3√11

Does specific heat of a substance depend on its temperature?​
lara [203]

Answer:

temperature

Explanation:

In general, the specific heat also depends on the temperature. The table below lists representative values of specific heat for various substances. Except for gases, the temperature and volume dependence of the specific heat of most substances is weak.

Can someone solve this problem and explain to me how you got it​
evablogger [386]

Answer:

question5: F=74312.5N

question6: charge at the end of antenna=0.37N

Explanation:

Coulomb's law: the magnitude of the force of attraction or repulsion due to two charges is proportional to the product of the magnitude of the charges and inversely proportional to the square of distance between the charges.

⇒F\alpha\frac{q1*q2}{r^{2}}

∴F=k\frac{q1*q2}{r^{2}}

where F is the force of attraction or repulsion

k is Coulumb's constant=9*10^{9}Nm^{2}C^{-2}

q1 and q2 are the magnitude of the charges

r is the distance between two charges

The force between the two charges is attractive if they are of different polarity

The force between the two charges is repulsive if they are of same polarity

Question5:

Given: q1=0.041 C, q2=0.029 C, r=12 m

therefore by Coulumb's law,

F=9*10^{9}*\frac{0.041*0.029}{12^{2}}

F=74312.5N

Question6:

Given: q1=3*10^{-18}C, r=5 m, F=4*10^{-11}N

therefore by Coulumb's law,

4*10^{-11}=9*10^{9}*\frac{3*10^{-18}*q2}{5^{2}}

⇒q2=\frac{4*10^{-11}*25}{9*10^{9}*3*10^{-18}} \\=0.37C

A device called an insolation meter is used to measure the intensity of sunlight. It has an area of 100 cm2 and registers 6.50 W
labwork [276]

Answer:

<h2>650W/m²</h2>

Explanation:

Intensity of the sunlight is expressed as I  = Power/cross sectional area. It is measured in W/m²

Given parameters

Power rating = 6.50Watts

Cross sectional area = 100cm²

Before we calculate the intensity, we need to convert the area to m² first.

100cm² = 10cm * 10cm

SInce 100cm = 1m

10cm = (10/100)m

10cm = 0.1m

100cm² = 0.1m * 0.1m = 0.01m²

Area (in m²) = 0.01m²

Required

Intensity of the sunlight I

I = P/A

I = 6.5/0.01

I = 650W/m²

Hence, the intensity of the sunlight in W/m² is 650W/m²
