2 resistors of resistance 1000 ohm and 2000 ohm are joined in series with a 100V supply. A voltmeter of internal resistance 4000
Vadim26 [7]
<h2>The voltmeter reading will be 35.7 volt </h2>

Explanation:

The resistor 1000 ohm and 4000 ohm are connected in parallel .

Their combined resistance is supposed R₁

Thus \frac{1}{R_1} = \frac{1}{1000} + \frac{1}{4000}  

or R₁ = 800 ohm

Therefore the total resistance in circuit is = 2000 + 800 = 2800 ohm

Because these are in series .

We can find  current flowing through the circuit  I = \frac{V}{R} = \frac{100}{2800} = \frac{1}{28}

here R is total resistance .

The potential difference across 1000 ohm = \frac{1}{28} x 1000 = 35.7 volt

Thus voltmeter reading will be 35.7 volt

You are working in cooperation with the Public Health department to design an electrostatic trap for particles from auto emissio
Mademuasel [1]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given that:

Charge (q) on the particle = 3 × 10⁻⁸ C

mass (m) of the particle = 6 × 10⁻⁹ kg

at a distance x = 15 cm , the velocity in the plate = 900 m/s²

For the square plate, the surface charged density σ = -8 × 10⁻⁶ C/m²

To start with calculating the electric field as a result of the square plate; we use the formula;

E = \dfrac{\sigma }{2 \varepsilon_o}

E = \dfrac{8 \times 10^{-6} }{2 \times  8.85 \times 10^{-12}}

E = 4.51977 \times 10^5 \ V/m

On the square plate; The electric force F = Eq

F = (4.51977 \times 10^5 \ V/m )(3\times 10^{-8} \ C)

F = 1.3559 \times 10^{-2} \ N

The acceleration a =\dfrac{ F}{m}{

a = \dfrac{1.3559\times 10^{-2} \ N}{6 \times 10^{-9} \ Kg}

a = 2.25988 \times 10^6 \ m/s^2

For the particle, the velocity at distance x = 7 m can be calculated by using the formula:

(\dfrac{1}{2}) mv^2 = \Delta Vq

v^2 = \dfrac{2 Eq}{dm}

v^2 = \dfrac{2 * 4.51977 \times 10^5 \times 3 \times 10^{-8} }{0.07 \times 6\times 10^{-9} }

v^2 = 64568142.86  \ m/s

v =\sqrt{ 64568142.86  \ m/s}

\mathbf{v = 8.035 \times 10^3 \ m/s}

From the calculation, we realize that the charge acting between the particle and the plate is said to be "opposite".

Hence, the force is an attractive force.

Similarly, there is a gradual increase exhibited by the velocity of the particle.

Therefore, the particles get to the detector, but the detector failed to get detect due to the velocity which is greater than 1000 m/s.
