1/sinc = 1.50
sinc =1/1.5
critical angle = sininverse(1/1.5) = 41.8

A 16 g piece of Styrofoam carries a net charge of -8.6 µC and floats above the center of a large horizontal sheet of plastic tha
PilotLPTM [1.2K]

Answer:

the charge per unit area on the plastic sheet is - 3.23 x 10⁻⁷ C/m²

Explanation:

given information:

styrofoam mass, m = 16 g = 0.016 kg

net charge, q = - 8.6 μC

to calculate the charge per unit area on the plastic sheet, we can use the following equation:

F_{e} = mg

where

F_{e} = the force between the electric field

m = mass

g = gravitational force

F_{e} =qE

where

q = charge

E = electric field

and

E = σ/2ε₀

where

ε₀ = permitivity

thus

F_{e} =qE

mg = qσ/2ε₀

σ = (2mg ε₀)/q

  = 2 (0.016) (9.8)  (8.85 x 10⁻¹²)/( - 8.6 x 10⁻⁶)

  = - 3.23 x 10⁻⁷ C/m²

An airplane accelerates from rest to its required takeoff speed with an acceleration 5.0 m/s^2 after travelling on the runway a
Alex Ar [27]

Answer:

Explanation:

.75 km = 750 m

acceleration a = 5 m/s²

distance s = 750 m

initial velocity u = 0

Final velocity v = ?

v² = u² + 2as

v² = 0 + 2 x 5 x 750

v = 86.60 m /s.

The first law of thermodynamics states that ΔE= Q− W . Is this also a statement of the principle of conservation of energy? Yes,
ozzi

Answer:

Yes, the heat that flows into the system is used to change the internal energy of the gas and becomes work done by the piston.

Explanation:

First law of thermodynamics known as Law of Conservation of Energy, states that energy can neither be created nor destroyed; energy can only be transferred or changed from one form to another.

The first law of thermodynamics states that the change in internal energy of a system equals the net heat transfer into the system minus the net work done by the system. In equation form, the first law of thermodynamics.

This is the first law of thermodynamics

ΔE= Q− W

ΔE= change internal energy of the system.

Q= heat transfer into the system

And

W= work done by the system.

Rewriting the equation

ΔE= Q− W

Q=ΔE +W

Show that the heat flowing l into the system is transferred to the internal energy of the system and the work done by the piston

So the third option is correct
