A small plastic ball with a mass of 7.00 10-3 kg and with a charge of +0.155 µC is suspended from an insulating thread and hangs

between the plates of a capacitor (see the drawing). The ball is in equilibrium, with the thread making an angle of 30.0° with respect to the vertical. The area of each plate is 0.0135 m2. What is the magnitude of the charge on each plate?

Answer:

the magnitude of the charge Q on each plate is 3.053 *10^{-8} \ C

Explanation:

Given that :

mass (m) = 7.00 *10 ^{-3} \ kg

charge (q) = +0.155 µC = +0.155 *10^{-6}\ C

angle \theta = 30^0 \ C

Area A on each plate = 0.0135 m²

From the diagram below;

tan \ \theta = \frac{Eq}{mg}    ----- equation (1)

Also by using Gauss Law ;

Q = \epsilon_0 \phi

Q = \epsilon_0EA     ----- equation (2)

Combination equation 1 and 2 together ; we have

Q = \frac{\epsilon_0\ * \ m\ *\ g \ \ * \ tan \theta \ * \ A}{q}

Q = \frac{(8.85*10^{-12}C^2/N.m^2 )\ * \ (7.00*10^{-3} kg)\ *\ (9.8 m/s^2) \ \ * \ tan \(30 \ * \ (0.0135 m^2)}{0.155*10^{-6}\ C}

Q = 3.053 *10^{-8} \ C

Why do the giant planets and their moons have compositions different from those of the terrestrial planets?
dangina [55]

Answer and Explanation:

The formation of planets ,initially was the result of gradual accumulation of  solid matter into the solar nebula. As a result of high temperature in the interior of our solar system, metals and rocks were the only materials to get compressed.

The matter that was volatile could not be compressed so close to the heat energy radiated by the early Sun.

On the outer part of the solar system, solid matter included hydrogen compounds, rocks and metals  with a lot of matter for planet formation.

The Giant planets were formed by capturing Helium and hydrogen gases as well whereas the terrestrial planets being much more smaller are made up of mainly rocks like silicates and metals like iron.

The moons of terrestrial planets like that of Earth is also terrestrial in nature consisting of rocks and metals as the constituent material while that of giant planets consist of frozen water in half the proportion and the other half is rocks and metals.

Kieran takes off from rest down a 50 m high, 10° slope on his jet-powered skis. The skis have a thrust of 280 N parallel to the
xz_007 [3.2K]

Answer:0.46

Explanation:

Given

Initial height h=50 m

inclination \theta =10^{\circ}

Thrust=280 N

combined mass of kieran and skis m=50 kg

Speed at the bottom v=40 m/s

From Work Energy Theorem

Work done by all the force is equal to change in kinetic Energy

W_{gravity}+W_{friction}+W_{thrust}=\frac{1}{2}mv^2-0------------1

distance traveled along the slope x=\frac{50}{\sin 10}=287.93 m

W_{gravity}=mgh=50\times 9.8\times 50=24500 J

W_{thrust}=F\times x=280\times 287.93=80,620.4 J

W_{friction}=-\mu mg\cos 10

substitute in 1

24,500+80,620.4+W_{friction}=\frac{1}{2}\times 50\times 1600

W_{friction}=40,000-24,500-80,620.4

-\mu \cdot 50\times 9.8\times 287.93=-65,120.4

\mu =\frac{65,120.4}{141,085.7}=0.46

Identify solar, wind, nuclear, and tidal power as nonrenewable or renewable energy
Nostrana [21]

Answer:

Renewable energy: Tidal, solar and wind

Non renewable energy: nuclear power

Explanation:

Renewable energy is any energy in which its source is always replenished or renewed.

While non renewable energy sources cannot be replenished or renewed immediately because of its limited availability of resources.

Most renewable energy sources are natural sources.

Solar, tidal and wind energy are renewable energy known as clean energy. While nuclear energy is a non renewable energy in which its source of energy is fuel ( uranium e.t.c)
