Answer:

Matter is anything that has mass

Explanation:

The word "matter" refers to anything that has mass, either organic or inorganic. Matter is made up of atoms, which consists of a nucleus (made up of protons, positively charged, and neutrons, electrically neutron) and electrons which revolve around the nucleus.

The number of protons in the atom determine the element: there are more than 100 different elements in nature, with different properties depending on the number of electrons they have.

Matter can be in three different states also:

- solid: the atoms are tightly bond to each other, so they cannot move

- liquids: atoms are not bond to each other, so they can slide past each other, but still they have some intermolecular forces that keep them close to each other

- gas: atoms are free to move, as there are no forces that keep them close to each other

A thin nonconducting rod with a uniform distribution of positive charge Q is bent into a complete circle of radius R. The centra
Dmitriy789 [7]

Answer:

(a). If z = 0, The electric field due to the rod is zero.

(b). If z =  ∞, The electric field due to the rod is E\propto\dfrac{1}{z^2}.

(c). The positive distance is \dfrac{R}{\sqrt{2}}

(d). The maximum magnitude of electric field is 1.54\times10^{4}\ N/C

Explanation:

Given that,

Radius = 2.00 cm

Charge = 4.00 mC

(a). If the radius and charge are R and Q.

We need to calculate the electric field due to the rod

Using formula of electric field

E=\dfrac{1}{4\pi\epsilon_{0}}\dfrac{Qz}{(z^2+R^2)^{\frac{2}{3}}}

Where, Q = charge

z = distance

If z = 0,

Then, The electric field is

E=0

(b). If z = ∞, z>>R

So, R = 0

Then, the electric field is

E=\dfrac{1}{4\pi\epsilon_{0}}\dfrac{Q}{z^2}

E\propto\dfrac{1}{z^2}

(c). In terms of R,

We need to calculate the positive distance

If E\rightarrow E_{max}

Then, \dfrac{dE}{dz}=0

\dfrac{Q}{4\pi\epsilon_{0}}(\dfrac{(z^2+R^2)^\frac{3}{2}-\dfrac{3z}{2}(z^2+R^2)^\dfrac{1}{2}}{(z^2+R^2)^2})=0

Taking only positive distance

z=\dfrac{R}{\sqrt{2}}

(d). If R = 2.00 and Q = 4.00 mC

We need to calculate the maximum magnitude of electric field

Using formula of electric field

E_{max}=\dfrac{1}{4\pi\epsilon_{0}}\dfrac{Qz}{(z^2+R^2)^{\frac{2}{3}}}

E_{max}=9\times10^{9}\times\dfrac{4.0\times10^{-6}\times\dfrac{2.00}{\sqrt{2}}}{((\dfrac{2.00}{\sqrt{2}})^2+(2.00)^2)^{\frac{2}{3}}}

E_{max}=15418.7\ N/C

E_{max}=1.54\times10^{4}\ N/C

Hence, (a). If z = 0, The electric field due to the rod is zero.

(b). If z =  ∞, The electric field due to the rod is E\propto\dfrac{1}{z^2}.

(c). The positive distance is \dfrac{R}{\sqrt{2}}

(d). The maximum magnitude of electric field is 1.54\times10^{4}\ N/C

The conductor is initially electrically neutral, and then a charge q is placed at the center of the hollow space. Suppose the co
Anvisha [2.4K]

The total charge on the interior of the conductor is zero.

The total charge on the exterior of the conductor is 8q.

<h3>Total charge on the interior</h3>

Due to large number of electrons available for conduction in a conductor, most of the electrons moves to surface leaving zero net charge inside the conductor.

Thus, the total charge on the interior of the conductor is zero.

<h3>Total charge on the exterior</h3>

The total charge on the exterior of the conductor is calculated as follows;

Q = q + 7q = 8q

Thus, the total charge on the exterior of the conductor is 8q.

Which two possible explanations does the video give for why white light changes into colored light? Color is an impurity added t
Alex777 [14]

Answer:

White light contains seven colors, which are separated by the prism.

White light reacts with chemicals in the air to produce seven colors.

Explanation:

It was first observed by Sir Issac Newton, that when white light is passed through a prism, an elongated, coloured patch of light is obtained on a screen placed behind the prism. The seven colours obtained constitute the spectrum of white light.

In nature, white light is separated into its constituent wavelengths when white light interacts with substances in the atmosphere.

A boat travels at 30 mph for a huge, solid cliff that is about 3,000 meters away. When the horn on the boat makes a toot, you ca
AleksandrR [38]

Answer:The frequency of the echo is slightly decreased

Explanation:

Given

speed of boat =30\ mph

cliff is 3000\ m away

when boat is still , suppose t is the time taken by the echo to reach observer on the boat

But as soon as boat starts moving  the distance between cliff and boat decreasing and time for echo to reach observer also decreases

and we know time \propto \frac{1}{frequency}

therefore frequency of the echo slightly decreased.
