A plastic rod has been bent into a circle of radius R = 8.00 cm. It has a charge Q1 = +2.70 pC uniformly distributed along one-q

uarter of its circumference and a charge Q2 = −6Q1 uniformly distributed along the rest of the circumference. Take V = 0 at infinity. (a) What is the electric potential at the center C of the circle? V (b) What is the electric potential at point P, which is on the central axis of the circle at distance D = 6.71 cm from the center?

Answer:

Part a)

V = -1.52 V

Part b)

V = -1.16 V

Explanation:

Part a)

Electric potential is a scalar quantity

so here we can say that total potential due to a ring on its center is given as

V = \frac{kQ}{R}

here we know that

Q = Q_1 - 6Q_1

Q = - 5 Q_1

Q_1 = 2.70 pC

now we have

V = \frac{(9\times 10^9)(-5\times 2.70 \times 10^{-12})}{0.08}

V = -1.52 V

Part b)

Potential on the axis of the ring is given as

V = \frac{kQ}{\sqrt{r^2 + R^2}}

V = \frac{(9\times 10^9)(-5\times 2.70\times 10^{-12})}{\sqrt{0.08^2 + 0.0671^2}}

V = -1.16 V

Light rays from stars bend toward smaller angles as they enter Earth's atmosphere. a. Explain why this happens using Snell's law
Grace [21]

Answer:

Following are the answer to this question:

Explanation:

In option (a):

  • The principle of Snells informs us that as light travels from the less dense medium to a denser layer, like water to air or a thinner layer of the air to the thicker ones, it bent to usual — an abstract feature that would be on the surface of all objects. Mostly, on the contrary, glow shifts from a denser with a less dense medium. This angle between both the usual and the light conditions rays is referred to as the refractive angle.  
  • Throughout in scenario, the light from its stars in the upper orbit, the surface area of both the Earth tends to increase because as light flows from the outer atmosphere towards the Earth, it defined above, to a lesser angle.

In option (b):

  • Rays of light, that go directly down wouldn't bend, whilst also sun source which joins the upper orbit was reflected light from either a thicker distance and flex to the usual, following roughly the direction of the curve of the earth.  
  • Throughout the zenith specific position earlier in this thread, astronomical bodies appear throughout the right position while those close to a horizon seem to have been brightest than any of those close to the sky, and please find the attachment of the diagram.

How does wood and plastic relate to forces
WARRIOR [948]

Answer:

There are six kinds of forces that act on objects when they come into contact with one another: Normal force, applied force, frictional force, tension force, spring force and resisting force. These forces make objects change their motion or movement , the act of going from one place to another.

An example of acceleration
TEA [102]

Answer:

Explanation:

Newton’s Second Law of Motion says that acceleration (gaining speed) happens when a force acts on a mass (object). Riding your bicycle is a good example of this law of motion at work. Your bicycle is the mass.
