Answer:

The potential at the point 8 meters is approximately 48.98  Joules/C

Explanation:

Notice that we need to find the potential at a point aligned to the rod's axis (see attached figure), that is located 6 meters from one end of the rod. Notice as well, that the length (L) of the rod is 5 meters.

Since we have a uniformly distributed charge, the charge density per unit of length is defined as:

\lambda=\frac{Q}{L} \\\lambda=\frac{45}{5}\,\frac{10^{-9}\,C}{m} \\\lambda=9\,\frac{10^{-9}\,C}{m}

In order to find the contribution of each little segment dx of charge

dq=\lambda\,dx

to the potential at the requested point, we need to perform an integral:

V=\int\limits^{11}_{6} {} \, dV \\V=\int\limits^{11}_{6} {} \, k\,\frac{dq}{x}  \\V=\lambda \,*k\,\int\limits^{11}_{6} {} \, \frac{dx}{x}  \\V=8.98*9  \, \,ln(\frac{11}{6}) \,\frac{J}{C} \\V=80.82\,* \,0.606 \,\frac{J}{C}\\V=48.98 \frac{J}{C}

You can comfortably hold your fingers close beside a candle flame, but not very close above the flame. why? challenge (optional)
Inessa05 [86]
The candle flame releases hot gases, which directly go in upwards directions. Due to which the air near the flame of the candle is very hot and dense. The particles along with vapour move up. And since the sideways, the air is not very dense and hot, we are able to hold the candle. In anti-gravity region, there will be no density differences and also, the convection process wont occur. So, the candle quickly snuffs off.

If you make multiple measurements of your height, you are likely to find that the results vary by nearly half an inch in either
Lisa [10]

Answer:

Height h= 1.7 m

Explanation:

Supposing we have to find height in meter.

1 feet = 0.3048 m

1 inch = 0.0254 m

Given that:

5 feet

= 5×0.3048

= 1.524 m

and 7 inch = 7×0.0254= 0.1778 m

Therefore total height of a man in meter

5 feet 7 inch = 1.5424+0.1778 =1.7 m

Height h= 1.7 m
