In our physical world, by far, the most abundance free charge in the universe is the electron, which has a negative charge.What

do we mean, then, when we say that the surface of an object is positively charged?

here the answer is obvious.we know that the charge of electron is negative and all the substance contains electrons.but there is also another particle called proton which is also a fundamental particle.

As per the question,the surface of an object is positive.it means  that some amount of electrons have been emitted by the object.

when the electron emission takes place from the surface of the object,the number of electrons is decreased .as the atom contains same number of protons and electrons making the whole atom neutral ,so, when electron is lost,there will more number of proton as compared to electrons.The surface gains a positive charge.

The surface becomes positive as generally the electrons present on the surface are less bound to the nucleus and can be easily escaped from the surface barrier.

Consider a long cylindrical charge distribution of radius R with a uniform charge density rho. Find the electric field at distan
ahrayia [7]

Answer: Ok, first lest see out problem.

It says it's a Long cylindrical charge distribution, So you can ignore the border effects on the ends of the cylinder.

Also by the gauss law we know that E¨*2*pi*r*L = Q/ε0

where Q is the total charge inside our gaussian surface, that will be a cylinder of radius r and heaight L.

So Q= rho*volume= pi*r*r*L*rho

so replacing : E = (1/2)*r*rho/ε0

you may ask, ¿why dont use R on the solution?

since you are calculating the field inside the cylinder, and the charge density is uniform inside of it, you don't see the charge that is outside, and in your calculation actuali doesn't matter how much charge is outside your gaussian surface, so R does not have an effect on the calculation.

R would matter if in the problem they give you the total charge of the cylinder, so when you only have the charge of a smaller r radius cylinder, you will have a relation between r and R that describes how much charge density you are enclosing.

. A magnetic field has a magnitude of 0.078 T and is uniform over a circular surface whose radius is 0.10 m. The field is orient
Dmitriy789 [7]

Answer:

The magnetic flux through surface is 2.22 \times 10^{-3} Wb

Explanation:

Given :

Magnitude of magnetic field B = 0.078 T

Radius of circle r = 0.10 m

Angle between field and surface normal \theta = 25°

From the formula of flux,

\phi = B.A

\phi = BA\cos \theta

Where \theta = angle between magnetic field line and surface normal, A = area of circular surface.

A = \pi r^{2}

A = 3.14 \times (0.10) ^{2}

A = 0.0314 m^{2}

Magnetic flux is given by,

\phi = 0.078 \times 0.0314 \times \cos 25

\phi = 2.22 \times 10^{-3} Wb

Therefore, the magnetic flux through surface is 2.22 \times 10^{-3} Wb

two circular plates, each with a radius of 8.22 cm, have equal and opposite charges of magnitude 3.052 μc. calculate the electri
PtichkaEL [24]

If the separation distance is doubled, then the electric field decreases by a factor of 4.

<h3>What is the electric field strength?</h3>

We know that the electric field strength is known to depend on the magnitude of the charge and the distance of separation. We know that the electric field refers to the region in which the influence of a charge is felt. Recall that a charge is a specie that is positively or negatively charged. The charge on a specie must always be shown by its sign.

We know that the electric field is the region in space where the influence of a charge can be felt. If a charge is placed in the vicinity of another charge, the second charge would experience a force due to the presence of the first charge. This is because the second charge was brought into the electric field of the first charge.

Thus we know that;

E = Kq/r^2

Where;

E = electric field strength

q = magnitude of charge

r = distance of separation

Now;

E = 9.0* 10^9 * 3.052 * 10^-6/(8.22 * 10^-2)^2

E = 4 N/C

Given that the electric filed strength is inversely proportional to the distance of separation, when the distance between the charges is doubled, the electric field decreases by a factor of 4.
