Answer:

Its rays point away from the charge.

Explanation:

The electric field due to a point charge is given by :

$E=\dfrac{kq]{r^2}$

Where

k is the electrostatic constant

q is the point charge

r is the distance from charge particle

It is clear that the electric field is directly proportional to the charge and inversely proportional to the distance from charge particle.

There are two types of charged particle i.e. negative and positive charge. For a positive charge, the direction of electric field points away from it and for a negative charge, the direction of electric field points towards it.

Hence, the correct option is (c).

Tapping means the maximum use of the energy by the people.

<h3>What is energy?</h3>

The energy is the ability to do work.

The energy that can be tapped is solar energy. There are many ways developed to tap the solar energy and make the best use of it by solar plant, water heating, cooking, etc.

Thus, tapping means the maximum use of the energy by the people.

Answer: option 1 : the electric potential will decrease with an increase in y

Explanation: The electric potential (V) is related to distance (in this case y) by the formulae below

V = kq/y

Where k = 1/4πε0

Where V = electric potential,

k = electric constant = 9×10^9,

y = distance of potential relative to a reference point, ε0 = permittivity of free space

q = magnitude of electronic charge = 1.609×10^-19 c

From the formulae, we can see that q and k are constants, only potential (V) and distance (y) are variables.

We have that

V = k/y

We see the potential(V) is inversely proportional to distance (y).

This implies that an increase in distance results to a decreasing potential and a decrease in distance results to an increase in potential.

This fact makes option 1 the correct answer

For a maximum superelevation of 0.08 ft/ft and a degree of curve of 4o, calculate the maximum safe speed for the curve assuming

Mamont248 [21]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given that

Superelation= 0.08ft/ft

Given curve= u•

Curve junction factor= 0.13

DR= 5729.57795

R = 5729.57795/D

R = 5729.57795/4

R = 1432.4ft

c + f = V^2/gG

0.08 + 0.13 = V^2 / (32*1432.4)

V^2 = 9625.728 or V = 98 ft/sec

The designed speed for a project considered is a minimum value which means the highway design elements will meet or exceed the standards for the design speed. The maximum safe speed under normal condition is significantly greater than design speed
