Answer:

 V = k Q/l  ln [(l +√(l² + x²)) / x]

Explanation:

The electrical potential for a continuous distribution of charges is

      V = k ∫ dq / r

Let's apply this expression to our case, define a linear charge density for the bar

           λ = dq / dy

          dq = λ dy

The distance from a point on the bar to the x-axis is

            r = √ (x² + y²)

Let's replace

          V = K ∫ λ dy /√ (x² + y²)

     

We integrate

         V = k λ ln (y + √ (x² + y²))

       

Let's evaluate between y = 0 and y = l

         V = k λ [ ln (l +√(x² + l²) - ln x]

We substitute the linear density

           V = k Q/l  ln [(l +√(l² + x²)) / x]

Given 4.8 moles of a gas at 37 degrees Celsius and at 792 torr, what is the volume of the gas? (The ideal gas constant is 0.0821
Anastaziya [24]

Answer:

1.17 x 10^2 L

Explanation:

We can find the volume of the gas by using the ideal gas law:

pV=nRT

where we have:

p=792 Torr \cdot \frac{1 atm}{760 Torr} = 1.04 atm is the pressure

V is the volume

n = 4.8 mol is the number of moles

R = 0.0821 L · atm/mol · K is the ideal gas constant

T=37^{\circ}+273 =310 K is the temperature

Solving the equation for V, we find the volume

V=\frac{nRT}{p}=\frac{(4.8 mol)(0.0821 L atm/mol K)(310 K)}{1.04 atm}=117.5 L = 1.17\cdot 10^2 L

If it takes 150 N of force to move a box. 10 meters, what is the work done on
Scrat [10]

Answer:

C ) 1500 Joules

Explanation:

In the attached image, we can see how the box was moved 10 meters by the force of 150 N.

The definition of work is W = F * d

therefore

W= 150*10 = 1500 J

The closeness of measured values to an accepted value is the BLANK of the data ?
wlad13 [49]
When you refer to how close a measured value is to a standard, accepted or known value, you are talking about the ACCURACY of the data. This is the definition of accuracy when it comes to engineering and other fields of science. 

Accuracy is usually associated or with the term precision, as their definitions are often interchanged.

As a rocket travels upward from earth, air resistance decreases along with the force of gravity. The rocket's mass also decrease
ddd [48]

Answer:

The decrease of these factors increases the acceleration.

Explanation:

Hi, the decrease of these factors increases the acceleration.

Air resistance is a force opposing the acceleration. So if it decreases, the acceleration increases, because the opposite forces decreases.

The same is applied to the force of gravity, since the rocket travels upward; gravity is also an opposite force.

Finally, if the mass decreases, it means that the rocket becomes lighter and the force acting on the smaller mass causes an increase in the acceleration.

musickatia [10]

Ultravoilent rays is an type of an electromegnetic wave with wavelength 10nm .Ultraviolet wave is used by doctors in order to keep the wounds away from bacteria.

<h3>What is ultravoilent wave ?</h3>

Ultravoilent rays is an type of an electromegnetic wave with wavelength 10nm. Ultravoilent wave is directly comes frim the sun. It is classified into the UV(A) , UV(B),UV(B).

Ultravoilet rays also effects the human eyes that s why sun glasses are used. The experiments here are compared and quantified to the effectiveness of the sunscreens with various strengths.
