Answer:
The magnitude of the electric field is 0.1108 N/C
Explanation:
Given;
number of electrons, e = 8.05 x 10⁶
length of the wire, L = 1.03 m
distance of the field from the center of the wire, r = 0.201 m
Charge of the electron;
Q = (1.602 x 10⁻¹⁹ C/e) x (8.05 x 10⁶ e)
Q = 1.2896 x 10⁻¹² C
Linear charge density;
λ = Q / L
λ = (1.2896 x 10⁻¹² C) / (1.03 m)
λ = 1.252 x 10⁻¹² C/m
The magnitude of electric field at r = 0.201 m;
Therefore, the magnitude of the electric field is 0.1108 N/C
Answer:
V_{a} - V_{b} = 89.3
Explanation:
The electric potential is defined by
= - ∫ E .ds
In this case the electric field is in the direction and the points (ds) are also in the direction and therefore the angle is zero and the scalar product is reduced to the algebraic product.
V_{b} - V_{a} = - ∫ E ds
We substitute
V_{b} - V_{a} = - ∫ (α + β/ y²) dy
We integrate
V_{b} - V_{a} = - α y + β / y
We evaluate between the lower limit A 2 cm = 0.02 m and the upper limit B 3 cm = 0.03 m
V_{b} - V_{a} = - α (0.03 - 0.02) + β (1 / 0.03 - 1 / 0.02)
V_{b} - V_{a} = - 600 0.01 + 5 (-16.67) = -6 - 83.33
V_{b} - V_{a} = - 89.3 V
As they ask us the reverse case
V_{b} - V_{a} = - V_{b} - V_{a}
V_{a} - V_{b} = 89.3
