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}

What is radioactive dating? How is it used to determine age of something?
Liono4ka [1.6K]

Answer:

Technique of comparing abundance ratio between radioactive isotopes to a reference isotope to determine the age of a material called radioactive dating. It determines the age by having a more abundance of isotopes in the cellular being.

Does Ap Physics have anything to do with probablity?
padilas [110]
So I'm a junior. I am currently taking AP Calc BC and AP Physics B.

As of now, I'm not sure if I should take AP Probability and Statistics or Differential Equations/Calc III next year. Also, I'm debating between taking AP Physics C or AP Chemistry.

Which ones do you think would look better on a transcript? I heard that Diffeq/CalcIII is harder than AP ProbStat, but ProbStat is an AP course which will be weighted heavier. Also, should I take Physics C since i've taken Physics B this year already?
