A charge q produces an electric field of strength 2E at a distance of d away. Determine the electric field strength at a distanc

The electric field strength of a point charge is inversely proportional to the square of the distance from the charge ... a lot like gravity.

If the magnitude of the field is (2E) at the distance 'd', then at the distance '2d', it'll be (2E)/(2²).  That's (2E)/4 = 0.5E .

Answer:

8 E

Explanation:

The formula for the electric field at point P which is at a distance r from the charge Q due to the charge Q is given by

E = k Q / r^2

If a charge is at a distance d from the charge q, the electric field is given by

2E = k q / d^2    .... (1)

Let the electric field at a distance 1/2 d is E'

E' = k q / (d/2)^2

E' = 4 k q / d^2 = 4 x 2E   (From equation (1)

E' = 8 E

A river flows due south with a speed of 2.0 m/s. You steer a motorboat across the river; your velocity relative to the water is
neonofarm [45]

Answer:

a) 25.5°(south of east)

b) 119 s

c) 238 m

Explanation:

solution:

we have river speed v_{r}=2 m/s

velocity of motorboat relative to water is v_{m/r}=4.2 m/s

so speed will be:

a) v_{m}=v_{r}+v_{m/r}

solving graphically

v_{m}=\sqrt{v^2_{r}+v^2_{m/r}}

     =4.7 m/s

Ф=tan^{-1} (\frac{v_{r}}{v_{m/r}} )

  =25.5°(south of east)

b) time to cross the river: t=\frac{w}{v_{m/r}}=\frac{500}{4.2}=119 s

c) d=v_{r}t=(2)(119)=238 m
