Answer:

\vec{E} ( (0, -8.00 \ m, - 8.00 \ m) ) = (   48.00 \frac{V}{m}  ,  0  , - 144.00 \frac{V}{m}  )

Explanation:

We know that the relationship between the electric field \vec{E}(\vec{r}) and the potential V(\vec{r}) is given by

\vec{E} ( \vec{r}) = - \vec{\nabla} V(\vec{r})

So, for our potential:

V(r) = a x^2 z + b x y - c z^2

the electric field is :

\vec{E} ( \vec{r}) = - \vec{\nabla} ( a x^2 z + b x y - c z^2 )

\vec{E} ( \vec{r}) = - ( \frac{ \partial }{\partial x}, \frac{ \partial }{\partial y} , \frac{ \partial }{\partial z}) ( a x^2 z + b x y - c z^2 )

\vec{E} ( \vec{r}) = - ( \frac{ \partial }{\partial x} ( a x^2 z + b x y - c z^2 ) , \frac{ \partial }{\partial y}  ( a x^2 z + b x y - c z^2 ) , \frac{ \partial }{\partial z} ( a x^2 z + b x y - c z^2 ))

\vec{E} ( \vec{r}) = - ( 2 a x z + b y  , b x  , a x^2 - 2 c z )

This is the our electric field. At vector point

\vec{r} = (0, -8.00 \ m, - 8.00 \ m)

\vec{E} ( (0, -8.00 \ m, - 8.00 \ m) ) = - ( 2 a  * 0 * (-8.00 \ m)   + b (-8.00 \ m)   , b * 0  , a 0^2 - 2 c (-8.00 \ m)  )

\vec{E} ( (0, -8.00 \ m, - 8.00 \ m) ) = - ( 0   - b 8.00 \ m   ,  0  , 0 + 2 c 8.00 \ m  )

\vec{E} ( (0, -8.00 \ m, - 8.00 \ m) ) = (   b 8.00 \ m   ,  0  , - 2 c 8.00 \ m  )

Knowing

b= 6.00 \frac{V}{m^2}

and

c=9.00 \frac{V}{m^2}

the electric field is

\vec{E} ( (0, -8.00 \ m, - 8.00 \ m) ) = (   6.00 \frac{V}{m^2} * 8.00 \ m   ,  0  , - 9.00 \frac{V}{m^2} * 2* 8.00 \ m  )

\vec{E} ( (0, -8.00 \ m, - 8.00 \ m) ) = (   48.00 \frac{V}{m}  ,  0  , - 144.00 \frac{V}{m}  )

astraxan [27]

Answer:

x =  0.0734 m = 7.34 cm

Explanation:

First we shall calculate the area of the piston:

Area = \pi radius^2\\Area = \pi (0.028\ m)^2\\Area = 0.00246\ m^2

Now, we will calculate the force on the piston due to atmospheric pressure:

Atmospheric\ Pressure = \frac{Force}{Area}\\\\Force = (Atmospheric\ Pressure)(Area)\\Force = (101325\ N/m^2)(0.00246\ m^2) \\Force = F = 249.56\ N

Now, for the compression of the spring we will use Hooke's Law as follows:

F = kx\\

where,

k = spring constant = 3400 N/m

x = compression = ?

Therefore,

<u>x =  0.0734 m = 7.34 cm</u>

Complete Question

Red blood cells can be modeled as spheres of 6.53 μm diameter with −2.55×10−12 C excess charge uniformly distributed over the surface. Find the electric field at the following locations, with radially outward defined as the positive direction and radially inward defined as the negative direction. The permittivity of free space ????0 is 8.85×10−12 C/(V⋅m). What is the electric field

E⃗ 1 inside the cell at a distance of 3.05 μm from the center?

E⃗ 2 Just inside the surface of the cell

E⃗ 3 Just outside the surface of the cell

E⃗ 4 At a point outside the cell 3.05 μm from the surface

Answer:

E⃗ 1

      0 V/m

E⃗ 2

      0 V/m

E⃗ 3

         E_3 =  2.153 *10^{9} \  V/m

E⃗ 4

E_4 =  5.754 *10^ {8} \  V/m

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The diameter is d =  6.53 \mu m  = 6.53*10^{-6}\  m

The charge is Q =  -.2.55 *10^{-12} \  C

The permittivity of free space is \epsilon_o  =  8.85* 10^{-12}\  C / V.m

The distance considered is d =  3.05 \mu m  =  3.05 *10^{-6} \ m

Generally the electric field inside the cell at a distance of 3.05 μm from the center is

0 V/m

This because there is no electric field felt inside the cell according Gauss the cell is taken as a point charge

Generally the electric field just inside the surface of the cell is 0 V/m

This because there is no electric field felt inside the cell according Gauss the cell is taken as a point charge

Generally the electric field just outside the cell is mathematically represented as

E_3 =  \frac{ k  *  |Q|}{ r^2 }

Here k is the coulomb constant with value

k  =   9*10^{9}\ kg\cdot m^3\cdot s^{-4} \cdot A^{-2}

r is the radius of the sphere which is mathematically as

r =  \frac{d}{2} =   \frac{6.53*10^{-6}}{2}  = 3.265 *10^{-6} \  m

E_3 =  \frac{ 9*10^{9}  *  |-2.55 *10^{-12} |}{ [3.265 *10^{-6} ]^2 }

E_3 =  2.153 *10^{9} \  V/m

Generally the electric field at a point outside the cell 3.05 μm from the surface is mathematically represented as

E_4 =  \frac{ k  *  |Q|}{ R^2 }

Here R is mathematically represented as

R  =  3.265 *10^{-6} +  3.05 *10^{-6}

=>       R  =  6.315 *10^{-6}

So

E_4 =  \frac{ 9*10^{9}  *  |-2.55 *10^{-12} |}{ [ 6.315 *10^{-6} ]^2 }

E_4 =  5.754 *10^ {8} \  V/m
