Answer:

Explanation:

Heat engines are used for converting the heat into mechanical energy which is used for doing mechanical work.

The efficiency of heat engine is the fraction of mechanical energy to the thermal energy. The efficiency can not be 100% as some of the energy always loss due to friction and motion of the body parts of the heat engine.

A 11.5 nC charge is at x = 0cm and a -1.2 nC charge is at x = 3 cm ..At what position or positions on the x-axis is the electric

diamong [38]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

$q_1=11.5\ nC$ charge is placed at $x=0\ cm$

another charge of $q_2=-1.2\ nC$ is at $x=3\ cm$

We know that Electric field due to positive charge is away from it and Electric field due to negative charge is towards it.

so net electric field is zero somewhere beyond negatively charged particle

Electric Field due to $q_2$ at some distance r from it

$E_2=\frac{kq_2}{r^2}$

Now Electric Field due to $q_1$ is

$E_1=\frac{kq_1}{(3+r)^2}$

Now $E_1+E_2=0$

$\frac{k\times 11.5}{(r+3)^2}\frac{k\times (-1.2)}{r^2}=0$

$\frac{3+r}{r}=(\frac{11.5}{1.2})^{0.5}$

$\frac{3+r}{r}=3.095$

thus $r=1.43\ cm$

Thus Electric field is zero at some distance r=1.43 cm right of $q_2$
