A cubical shell with edges of length a is positioned so that two adjacent sides of one face are coincident with the +x and +y ax

es of a rectangular coordinate system and the corner formed by these two sides is at the origin. An electric field of magnitude E=bx2 directed along the +x axis exists in this region.
1.How much charge is contained in the volume of the shell?
2.Express your answer in terms of the variables a, b, and the permittivity constant ϵ0.

Answer: Q = ba⁴ * ε₀

Explanation:

Remember, Gauss's Law states that:

"The net electric flux through any hypothetical closed surface is equal to 1/ε₀ times the net electric charge within that closed surface" i.e

flux Φ = Q / ε₀ where

ε₀ = 8.85e-12 C²/N·m²

Also, the flux, Φ = EAcosθ, where

E = magnitude of the electric field in V/m

A = area of the surface in m²

θ = angle between the electric field lines and the normal (perpendicular) to S.

The field is directed along the x-axis, so all of the flux passes through the side of the cube at x = a. This means that θ = 0º. Thus,

Φ = EA

Then, E = bx² and we're interested in the point where x = a, so if we substitute x for a, we have

E = ba²

Since A = a² for the cube face, we have

Q / ε₀ = ba² * a²

so

Q = ba⁴ * ε₀

In order to ride a bike up a hill with increasing speed—
sergey [27]

Answer: the rider’s pedal force must be greater than friction and the force of gravity

Explanation:

This is because if the pedal force was less, you would go slower, and it is obviously not impossible to ride up a hill without increasing speed. But if the force was greater, your speed would increase.

Determine the amount of potential energy of a 5N book that is 1.5m high on a shelf.
Alex73 [517]

Answer:

Potential energy of book = 7.5 J

Explanation:

Given:

Weight of book = 5 N

Height of shelf = 1.5 meter

Find:

Potential energy of book

Computation:

Weight = Mass x Acceleration of gravity

Mass x Acceleration of gravity = 5 N

Potential energy = Mass x Acceleration of gravity x Height

Potential energy of book = Mass x Acceleration of gravity x Height

We know that;

Mass x Acceleration of gravity = 5 N

So,

Potential energy of book = 5 x 1.5

Potential energy of book = 7.5 J
