The charge density of the sheet is 1.384×10⁻⁷C/m².

Charge density is defined as the charge per unit area.

The sheet is a square of length  l=17 cm.

Calculate the area A of the sheet .

A=l^2=(17 cm)^2= (17*10^-^2m)^2=0.0289 m^2

The charge Q on the sheet is

Q=4nC=4*10^-^9C

The charge density σ is given by,

\sigma=\frac{Q}{A}

Substitute 4×10⁻⁹C for Q and 0.0289 m² for A.

\sigma=\frac{Q}{A}\\ =\frac{4*10^-^9C}{0.0289 m^2} \\ =1.389*10^-^7C/m^2

Thus, the charge density of the sheet is <u>1.384×10⁻⁷C/m².</u>

harina [27]

Answer:The answer is (60 mph - 0 mph) / 8s = (26.8224 m/s - 0 m/s) / 8s = 3.3528 m/s 2 (meters per second squared) average acceleration. That would be 27,000 miles per hour squared.

Answer: A

Explanation: How large a parachute is (in other words, the parachute's surface area) affects its air resistance, or drag force. ... In the case of these parachutes, the drag force is opposite to the force of gravity, so the drag force slows the parachutes down as they fall.

A spherically spreading EM wave comes from an 1800-W source. At a distance of 5.0 m, what is the intensity, and what is the rms
Aleonysh [2.5K]

Explanation:

It is given that,

Power of EM waves, P = 1800 W

We need to find the intensity at a distance of 5 m. Also, the rms value of the electric field.

Intensity,

I=\dfrac{P}{4\pi r^2}\\\\I=\dfrac{1800}{4\pi\times (5)^2}\\\\I=5.72\ W/m^2

The formula that is used to find the rms value of the electric field is as follows :

I=\epsilon_o cE^2_{rms}

c is speed of light and \epsilon_o is permittivity of free space

So,

E_{rms}=\sqrt{\dfrac{I}{\epsilon_o c}}\\\\E_{rms}=\sqrt{\dfrac{5.72}{8.85\times 10^{-12}\times 3\times 10^8}}\\\\E_{rms}=46.41\ V/m

Hence, this is the required solution.
