I think the correct answer would be B. The process of elastic rebound is being shown by the student. It is a theory that is used to explain earthquakes. It focuses on how energy is being spread in times of earthquakes. As the rocks on the fault experiences shift and force, these rocks would be accumulating energy causing it to deform reaching the internal strength and eventually exceeding it. At that moment, a rapid motion would happen along the fault, which releases the energy, then the rocks would go back to its original shape or the undeformed state. This theory is the first theory that sufficiently was able to explain earthquakes.

In the diagram, q1 = -6.39*10^-9 C and q2 = +3.22*10^-9 C. What is the electric field at point P? pls help
Alexxx [7]

Answer:

Below

Explanation:

First draw the vectors that represent both electric fields.

E1 is the elictric field created by q1, E2 is the one created by q2.

● q1 is negative so E1 will point from P.

● q2 is positive so E2 will point out of P

(Picture below)

■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■

The resulting electric field is equal to the sum of the two fields since both vectors are colinear.

Let E be the total field.

● E = E1 + E2

The formula of the electric field intensity is:

● E = K ×(q/d^2)

-K is Coulomb's constant

-d is the distance between the charge and the object ( here P)

-q is the charge

■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■

● E1 = K × (q1/d1^2)

The distance between q1 and P is the qum of 0.15 m 0.25 m. (0.4 m)

Coulombs constant is 9×10^9 m^2/C^2

● E1 = 9×10^9 ×[-6.39 × 10^(-9)/ 0.4^2]

● E1 = -359.43 N/C

■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■

● E2 = K ×(q2/d^2)

The distance between q2 and P is 0.25 m.

● E2 = 9×10^9×[3.22×10^(-9) /0.25^2]

● E2 = 463.68 N/C

■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■

● E = E1 + E2

● E = -359.43+463.68

● E = 105.25 N/C
