Particle a has twice the charge of nearby particle

1 answer:

8 0

The force between charged particles is calculated through the Coulomb's law,
F = kQ₁Q₂/d²
From the equation, it can be deduced that the force is linearly directly proportional to the charge. This means that when the charge is doubled, the force is likewise doubled. Therefore, the compared to force on b, the force on a is twice.

Determine the length of the tungsten filament in a 100 watt lightbulb given: (i) the resistivity of tungsten is 5.6 × 10−8 Ω · m

svetoff [14.1K]

Answer:

0.34148 m

Explanation:

$\rho$ = Resistivity of tungsten = $5.6\times 10^{-8}\ \Omega m$

d = Diameter = 0.0018 inch

r = Radius = $\dfrac{r}{2}=\dfrac{0.0018}{2}=0.0009\ in$

$r=0.0009\times 0.0254=0.00002286\ m$

$\alpha$ = Temperature coefficient of tungsten = $0.0045 /^{\circ}C$

Power is given by

$P=\dfrac{V^2}{R}\\\Rightarrow R=\dfrac{V^2}{P}\\\Rightarrow R=\dfrac{120^2}{100}\\\Rightarrow R=144\ \Omega$

We have the equation

$R_2=R_1[1+\alpha(T_2-T_1)]\\\Rightarrow R_1=\dfrac{R_2}{1+\alpha(T_2-T_1)}\\\Rightarrow R_1=\dfrac{144}{1+0.0045(2550-25)}\\\Rightarrow R_1=11.64812\ \Omega$

Resistance is given by

$R=\rho\dfrac{l}{A}\\\Rightarrow l=\dfrac{RA}{\rho}\\\Rightarrow l=\dfrac{11.64812\times \pi (0.00002286)^2}{5.6\times 10^{-8}}\\\Rightarrow l=0.34148\ m$

The length of the filament is 0.34148 m

A concave mirror has a radius of curvature of 1.6m. Find the focal length

Yuki888 [10]

Given,

Radius of curvature of concave mirror = 1.6m

We know that ,

Focal length = radius/2

Hence ,

Focal length of concave mirror = radius of concave mirror /2

=> F = 1.6/2

=> F = 0.8m

Hence the focal length of concave mirror is 0.8 m

You are lost at night in a large, open field. Your GPS tells you that you are 122.0 m from your truck, in a direction 58.0o east

Drupady [299]

Answer:

The person is 187[m] farther and 70° south to east.

Explanation:

We can solve this problem by drawing a sketch of the location of the person and the truck, then we will draw the displacement vectors and finally the length of the vector and the direction of the vector will be measured in order to give the correct indication of where the person will have to move.

First we establish an origin of a coordinate system.

We can see in the attached schema that the red vector is the displacement vector from the last point to where the truck is located.

The length of the vector is 187 [m], and the direction is 70 degrees south to East.

discharge occurs when oppositely charged objects get close enough for the air between them to become electrically charged.

Wittaler [7]

Answer:

It does both. Once they get close enough the air does start to get charged, but then they eventually discharge when they touch.
