Answer:
(a) The magnitude of the electric dipole moment is 1.68 x 10⁻¹⁴ C.m
(b) The difference between the potential energies ΔU, is 4.6704 x 10⁻¹¹ J
Explanation:
Given;
magnitude of charge, q = 2 nC = 2 x 10⁻⁹ C
distance of separation, d = 8.4 μm = 8.4 x 10⁻⁶ m
strength of electric field, E = 1390 N/C
(a) the magnitude of the electric dipole moment
p = qd
p = (2 x 10⁻⁹ C)(8.4 x 10⁻⁶ m)
p = 1.68 x 10⁻¹⁴ C.m
(b) the difference between the potential energies for dipole orientations parallel and anti-parallel to E
ΔU = U(180) - U(0)
ΔU = 2pE
ΔU = 2(1.68 x 10⁻¹⁴ )(1390)
ΔU = 4.6704 x 10⁻¹¹ J
The work W done on an object by a constant force is defined as W = F. d. It is equal to the magnitude of the force, multiplied by the distance the object moves in the direction of the force.
Answer:
The 43kg student will be sliding at 1.79m/s opposite the direction the 34kg student is going.
Explanation:
Conservation of linear momentum!
The law of conservation of momentum says that in an isolated system, the momentum before must equal the momentum after:
.
For our two students
(notice the - sign in -2.4m/s, this means going to the left)
since the students were not moving at first, , therefore we have
solving for gives
Hence the 43kg student will be sliding at 1.79m/s to the right.
Answer:
D). Field lines circle the Earth from east to west.
Explanation:
A microscopic force or gigantic magnetic field surrounds the Earth which functions as a force field that guards the planet against the radiations released from space. This magnetic field is characterized by the alignment of the North and South poles with the axis of rotation. Thus, the magnetic field lines of the Earth surround or circle of the Earth from East to West. Therefore, <u>option D</u> is the correct answer.
Nearsightedness can be corrected by using eyeglass lenses that are D. concave in shape and cause light rays entering the eyes to diverge.
