The study of how objects interact with each other
Let the rod be on the x-axes with endpoints -L/2 and L/2 and uniform charge density lambda (2.6nC/0.4m = 7.25 nC/m).
The point then lies on the y-axes at d = 0.03 m.
from symmetry, the field at that point will be ascending along the y-axes.
A charge element at position x on the rod has distance sqrt(x^2 + d^2) to the point.
Also, from the geometry, the component in the y-direction is d/sqrt(x^2+d^2) times the field strength.
All in all, the infinitesimal field strength from the charge between x and x+dx is:
dE = k lambda dx * 1/(x^2+d^2) * d/sqrt(x^2+d^2)
Therefore, upon integration,
E = k lambda d INTEGRAL{dx / (x^2 + d^2)^(3/2) } where x goes from -L/2 to L/2.
This gives:
E = k lambda L / (d sqrt((L/2)^2 + d^2) )
But lambda L = Q, the total charge on the rod, so
E = k Q / ( d * sqrt((L/2)^2 + d^2) )
Answer:
it travels at a different refractive index.
Explanation:
for example when light travels into water, it slows down, causing it to continue to travel at a different or another angle or direction. hope this helped!
Hello.
The answer: C. amount of charge on the source charge
The field lines all represent the movements of field charges. The more crowded the field lines or the more density of electric field the higher is the magnitude of the source charge.
Have a nice day.
