THE electric field of the previously present electric charge,now produces the exact same value of electric field irrespective of the other charge added.but this time the net field will be different as it involves the vectorial addition of electric field

The correct answer to the question is : The net electric field will be modified, and they may repel or attract depending on the nature of charges.

EXPLANATION:

As per the question, initially there was a single isolated charge. The field produced by the charge may be directed towards the charge or away from it depending on the nature of charge.

When another charge is added to the system, the electric field produced by the former one will be modified. If the two charges are of same nature, then they will apply tangential pressure on each. If they are of opposite nature, they will apply longitudinal contraction on each other.

We know that electric field is a vector quantity. Hence, the net electric field at a point in the electric field will be obtained by the vector addition of individual charges.

Practice entering numbers that include a power of 10 by entering the diameter of a hydrogen atom in its ground state, dH = 1.06

Slav-nsk [51]

Answer:

$1.06085\times 10^{-10}\ m$

Explanation:

h = Planck's constant = $6.626\times 10^{-34}\ m^2kg/s$

m = Mass of electron = $9.11\times 10^{-31}\ kg$

k = Coulomb constant = $8.99\times 10^{9}\ Nm^2/C^2$

e = Charge of electron = $1.6\times 10^{-19}\ C$

n = 1 (ground state)

Angular momentum is given by

$L=mvr$

From Bohr's atomic model we have

$L=\dfrac{nh}{2\pi}$

$mvr=\dfrac{nh}{2\pi}\\\Rightarrow v=\dfrac{nh}{2\pi mr}$

The centripetal force will balance the electrostatic force

$\dfrac{ke^2}{r^2}=\dfrac{mv^2}{r}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{ke^2}{r}=mv^2\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{ke^2}{r}=m(\dfrac{nh}{2\pi mr})^2\\\Rightarrow r=\dfrac{n^2h^2}{4\pi^2mke^2}\\\Rightarrow r=\dfrac{1^2\times (6.626\times 10^{-34})^2}{4\pi^2 \times 9.11\times 10^{-31}\times 8.99\times 10^{9}\times (1.6\times 10^{-19})^2}\\\Rightarrow r=5.30426\times 10^{-11}\ m$

The diameter is $2\times 5.30426\times 10^{-11}=1.06085\times 10^{-10}\ m$

The electrostatic force between the two ions is $2.9\cdot 10^{-10} N$

Explanation:

The electrostatic force between two charged particle is given by Coulomb's law:

$F=k\frac{q_1 q_2}{r^2}$

where

$k=8.99\cdot 10^9 Nm^{-2}C^{-2}$ is the Coulomb's constant

$q_1, q_2$ are the two charges

r is the separation between the two charges

In this problem, the ion of sodium has a charge of

$q_1 = +e = +1.6\cdot 10^{-19} C$

while the ion of chlorine has a charge of

$q_2 = -e = -1.6\cdot 10^{-19}C$

And the distance between the two ions is

$r=282 pm = 282\cdot 10^{-12} m$

Substituting, we find the electrostatic force between the two ions:

$F=(8.99\cdot 10^9) \frac{(1.6\cdot 10^{-19})(-1.6\cdot 10^{-19})}{(282\cdot 10^{-12})^2}=-2.9\cdot 10^{-10} N$

where the negative sign simply means that the force is attractive, since the two ions have opposite charge.

10. How much U.S. oil demand is represented by the large oil tanker?

dexar [7]

Base on my research, as of 2004 The U.S. devours about 20 million barrels of oil a day, according to the CIA. But base on Wikipedia, it says that a normal large tanker can only carry around 2 million barrels of oil. So to supply the U.S with this oil per day, it needs 10 normal large oil tankers.

Answer:

v (speed) = S / t = 4 * 400 m / (6 * 60 sec) = 4.4 m/s

The average velocity is zero because there is no net vector displacement.
