A pair of opposite electric charges of equal magnitude is called a(n) A) Dipole

Kryger [21]2 years ago

Answer:

A) dipole.

Explanation:

As we know that when two equal and opposite charges are placed at some distance from each other then this combination of two equal and opposite charges are known as electric dipole.

Here electric dipole has dipole moment which is a vector quantity which is measured as the product of charge and distance between the two charges

it is given as

$P = qd$

here the direction of dipole moment is from negative charge to positive charge.

so correct answer is given as

A) dipole.

The half life of radium 222 is 38 seconds if you had a 12 gram sample how much would be left after 72 seconds

poizon [28]

<span>3.2 grams The first thing to do is calculate how many half lives have expired. So take the time of 72 seconds and divide by the length of a half life which is 38 seconds. So 72 / 38 = 1.894736842 So we're over 1 half life, but not quite 2 half lives. So you'll have something less than 12/2 = 6 grams, but more than 12/4 = 3 grams. The exact answer is done by dividing 12 by 2 raised to the power of 1.8947. So let's calculate 2^1.8947 power = 12 g / (e ^ ln(2)*1.8947) = 12 g / (e ^ 0.693147181 * 1.8947) = 12 g / (e ^ 1.313305964) = 12 g / 3.718446464 = 3.227154167 g So rounded to 2 significant figures gives 3.2 grams.</span>

An interference pattern is produced by light with a wavelength 550 nm from a distant source incident on two identical parallel s

ad-work [718]

Answer:

$\theta = 0.0022 rad$

$I = 0.000304 I_o$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The wavelength of the light is $\lambda = 550 \ nm = 550 *10^{-9} \ m$

The distance of the slit separation is $d = 0.500 \ mm = 5.0 *10^{-4} \ m$

Generally the condition for two slit interference is

$dsin \theta = m \lambda$

Where m is the order which is given from the question as m = 2

=> $\theta = sin ^{-1} [\frac{m \lambda}{d} ]$

substituting values

$\theta = 0.0022 rad$

Now on the second question

The distance of separation of the slit is

$d = 0.300 \ mm = 3.0 *10^{-4} \ m$

The intensity at the the angular position in part "a" is mathematically evaluated as

$I = I_o [\frac{sin \beta}{\beta} ]^2$

Where $\beta$ is mathematically evaluated as

$\beta = \frac{\pi * d * sin(\theta )}{\lambda }$

substituting values

$\beta = \frac{3.142 * 3*10^{-4} * sin(0.0022 )}{550 *10^{-9} }$

$\beta = 0.06581$

So the intensity is

$I = I_o [\frac{sin (0.06581)}{0.06581} ]^2$

$I = 0.000304 I_o$

A small sphere has a harge of 9uC and other small sphere has a charge of 4uC.

Helga [31]

Answer:

Electrical force, F = 90 N

Explanation:

It is given that,

Charge on sphere 1, $q_1=9\ \mu C=9\times 10^{-6}\ C$

Charge on sphere 2, $q_1=4\ \mu C=4\times 10^{-6}\ C$

Distance between two spheres, d = 6 cm = 0.06 m

Let F is the electrical force between them. It is given by the formula of electric force which is directly proportional to the product of charges and inversely proportional to the square of distance between them such that,

$F=k\dfrac{q_1q_2}{d^2}$
