The magnitude of the E-field decreases as the square of the distance from the charge, just like gravity.
Location ' x ' is √(2² + 3²) = √13 m from the charge.
Location ' y ' is √ [ (-3)² + (-2)² ] = √13 m from the charge.
The magnitude of the E-field is the same at both locations.
The direction is also the same at both locations ... it points toward the origin.
Answer:
a) w = 7.27 * 10^-5 rad/s
b) v1 = 463.1 m/s
c) v1 = 440.433 m/s
Explanation:
Given:-
- The radius of the earth, R = 6.37 * 10 ^6 m
- The time period for 1 revolution T = 24 hrs
Find:
What is the earth's angular speed?
What is the speed of a point on the equator?
What is the speed of a point on the earth's surface located at 1/5 of the length of the arc between the equator and the pole, measured from equator?
Solution:
- The angular speed w of the earth can be related with the Time period T of the earth revolution by:
w = 2π / T
w = 2π / 24*3600
w = 7.27 * 10^-5 rad/s
- The speed of the point on the equator v1 can be determined from the linear and rotational motion kinematic relation.
v1 = R*w
v1 = (6.37 * 10 ^6)*(7.27 * 10^-5)
v1 = 463.1 m/s
- The angle θ subtended by a point on earth's surface 1/5 th between the equator and the pole wrt equator is.
π/2 ........... s
x ............ 1/5 s
x = π/2*5 = 18°
- The radius of the earth R' at point where θ = 18° from the equator is:
R' = R*cos(18)
R' = (6.37 * 10 ^6)*cos(18)
R' = 6058230.0088 m
- The speed of the point where θ = 18° from the equator v2 can be determined from the linear and rotational motion kinematic relation.
v2 = R'*w
v2 = (6058230.0088)*(7.27 * 10^-5)
v2 = 440.433 m/s
The answer is Carbon. Beyond being the only element listed here that is located in the second row, it is also in the fourteenth column of the table if you count from left to right. Hope this helps!
Answer: a) 8.2 * 10^-8 N or 82 nN and b) is repulsive
Explanation: To solve this problem we have to use the Coulomb force for two point charged, it is given by:
Replacing the dat we obtain F=82 nN.
The force is repulsive because the points charged have the same sign.
