Points a and b lie in a region where the y-component of the electric field is Ey=α+β/y2. The constants in this expression have t

he values α = 600 N/C and β = 5.00 N⋅m2/C. Points a and b are on the y-axis. .
Point a is at y = 2.00 cm and point b is at y = 3.00 cm. What is the potential difference Va−Vb between these two points.?

Answer:

V_{a} - V_{b} = 89.3

Explanation:

The electric potential is defined by

         V_{b} - V_{a} = - ∫ E .ds

In this case the electric field is in the direction and the points (ds) are also in the direction and therefore the angle is zero and the scalar product is reduced to the algebraic product.

         V_{b} - V_{a} = - ∫ E ds

We substitute

         V_{b} - V_{a} = - ∫ (α + β/ y²) dy

We integrate

          V_{b} - V_{a} = - α y + β / y

We evaluate between the lower limit A  2 cm = 0.02 m and the upper limit B 3 cm = 0.03 m

           V_{b} - V_{a} = - α (0.03 - 0.02) + β (1 / 0.03 - 1 / 0.02)

            V_{b} - V_{a} = - 600 0.01 + 5 (-16.67) = -6 - 83.33

            V_{b} - V_{a} = - 89.3 V

As they ask us the reverse case

             V_{b} - V_{a} = - V_{b} - V_{a}

             V_{a} - V_{b} = 89.3

3. The electric field of a sinusoidal electromagnetic wave has an amplitude of 5.0 V/m. How much radiation energy passes through
True [87]

Answer:

e) 179 J

Explanation:

E_{o} = Magnitude of electric field = 5 V/m

A = Area of window = 1.5 m²

c = speed of electromagnetic wave = 3 x 10⁸ m/s

\Delta t = time interval = 1 h = 3600 sec

radiation energy is given as

U = (0.5)\epsilon _{o}E_{o}^{2}cA\Delta t

U = (0.5)(8.85\times 10^{-12})(5)^{2}(3\times 10^{8})(1.5)(3600)

U = 179 J

Explain how you can use the factors of production to produce a fruit juice in a production company
frozen [14]

Answer:

The factors of production include Land, Labour, Capital and Enterpreneurship

Explanation:

The fruit could be apple, orange , pineapple etc which are usually grown on land . They are tended to by people to ensure there is maximum yield. These people provide the required labour needed.

The cost of planting and payment of workers usually comes from the capital which is often used in running the business by the owner which makes certain decisions to ensure the fruit company is in place. All these factors work hand in hand to ensure production of fruit in a production company is possible.

Five metal samples, with equal masses, are heated to 200oC. Each solid is dropped into a beaker containing 200 ml 15oC water. Wh
Ksju [112]
Part 1) Which metal will cool the fastest?
To answer this question, we should have a look at the formula of the heat flow rate, which says "how fast" a material is able to heat/cool:
\frac{\Delta Q}{\Delta t}  = -k  \frac{A \Delta T}{x}
where:
\Delta Q is the heat exchanged
\Delta t is the time interval
k is thermal conductivity of the material
A the  surface where the exchange of heat occurs
\Delta T the variation of temperature
x is the thickness of the material
We see that the heat flow rate \frac{\Delta Q}{\Delta t} is linearly proportional to k, the thermal conductivity of the material. So, the larger k, the fastest the metal will cool. 
If we have a look at the thermal conductivity of each metal, we find:
- Aluminium: 237 W/(mK)
- Copper: 401 W/(mK)
- Gold: 314 W/(mK)
- Platinum: 69 W/(mK)
Therefore, copper is the material with highest heat flow rate, so the metal which cools fastest.

Part 2) Which sample of copper demonstrates the greatest increase in temperature
To solve this part, we can have a look at how the amount of heat exchanged Q is related to the increase in temperature \Delta T:
Q=m C_S \Delta T
where m is the mass and Cs the specific heat of the material. Re-arranging the formula, we get
\Delta T= \frac{Q}{m C_s}
therefore, we see that the increase in temperature is inversely proportional to the mass m. This means that the block that will show the largest increase in temperature is the block with the smallest mass, so the correct answer is A) 0.5 kg.

A researcher wants to know the effect of lighting on snacking behavior. He knows that young adults normally eat an average of =
horrorfan [7]

Answer:

It does not impact snacking behavior.

Explanation:

The mean of the study was 18.7 grams, which is only 2.3 grams below the actual average grams of snacks that an adult would consume while at work, after revising this you could say that theres a significant reduction, but then the standard deviation is 9.1 this means that there are still adults that are eating more than 21 gram of snacks, so the test would result inconclusive.
