wo fixed charges, A and B are located at x axis. A is at x = 0 m, B is at x = 4 m. QA = +4.0 μC and QB = -5.0 μC. Calculate the

lys-0071 [83]

Answer:

10250 N/C leftwards

Explanation:

QA = 4 micro Coulomb

QB = - 5 micro Coulomb

AP = 6 m

BP = 2 m

A is origin, B is at 4 m and P is at 6 m .

The electric field due to charge QA at P is EA rightwards

$E_{A}=\frac{KQ_{A}}{AP^{2}}=\frac{9\times10^{9}\times4\times10^{-6}}{6^{2}}=1000 N/C (rightwards)$

The electric field due to charge QB at P is EB leftwards

$E_{B}=\frac{KQ_{B}}{BP^{2}}=\frac{9\times10^{9}\times5\times10^{-6}}{2^{2}}=11250 N/C (leftwards)$

The resultant electric field at P due the charges is given by

E = EB - EA

E = 11250 - 1000 = 10250 N/C leftwards

The power lines are at a high potential relative to the ground, so there is an electric field between the power lines and the gr

Makovka662 [10]

Answer:

The tube should be held vertically, perpendicular to the ground.

Explanation:

As the power lines of ground are equal, so its electrical field is perpendicular to the ground and the equipotential surface is cylindrical. Therefore, if we put the position fluorescent tube parallel to the ground so the both ends of the tube lie on the same equipotential surface and the difference is zero when its potential.

And the ends of the tube must be on separate equipotential surfaces to optimize potential. The surface near the power line has a greater potential value and the surface farther from the line has a lower potential value, so the tube must be placed perpendicular to the floor to maximize the potential difference.

A 5.0-kg rock and a 3.0 × 10−4-kg pebble are held near the surface of the earth.(a)Determine the magnitude of the gravitational

a_sh-v [17]

Answer:

a). Determine the magnitude of the gravitational force exerted on each by the earth.

Rock: $F = 49.06N$

Pebble: $F = 29.44N$

(b)Calculate the magnitude of the acceleration of each object when released.

Rock: $a =9.8m/s^{2}$

Pebble: $a =9.8m/s^{2}$

Explanation:

The universal law of gravitation is defined as:

$F = G\frac{m1m2}{r^{2}}$ (1)

Where G is the gravitational constant, m1 and m2 are the masses of the two objects and r is the distance between them.

Case for the rock $m = 5.0 Kg$ :

m1 will be equal to the mass of the Earth $m1 = 5.972×10^{24} Kg$ and since the rock and the pebble are held near the surface of the Earth, then, r will be equal to the radius of the Earth $r = 6371000m$ .
