Answer:

electricfield at (0,0,0) is Et = 2 k q / a²

Explanation:

For the first part see the diagram , the field lines start from the positive charge and reach the negative charge, notice that no line should cross, some lines go to infinity

For the second part we use that the electric field is a vector quantity and therefore we add the field of each charge, using the equation

     E = k q / r²

Point (0,0,0)

We calculate for the charge -q which is at a distance R = a

   E1 = k (-q) / a²

   E1 = - kq / a²

As the test charge is positive in the field it goes to the left, attractive force

We calculate for the charge that is also at R = a

    E2 = k q / a²

This field goes to the left, repulsive force

We find the total electric field

    Et = E1 + E2

    Et = kq / a² + kq / a²

    Et = 2 k q / a²

Point (0,0, R)

We use the same equations, but with another distance, for the charge -q the distance is R = R+a and for the charge + q the distance is R = R-a

     E1 = k q / (R + a)²

     E2 = kq / (R-a)²

     Et = kq [1 / (R + a)² + 1 / (R-a)²]

     Et= kq {[(R-a)² + (R + a)²] / [(R + a)² (R-a)²]}

     Et= kq {2 (R² + a²) / [(R + a)² (R-a)²]}

If we use the condition that  R> a we can despise in the patents "a"

     (R² + a²) = R² (1+ a² / R²) ≈ R²

     (R + a)² = R² (1 + a / R)² ≈ R²

     (R- a)²  = R² (1-a / R)² ≈ R²

Substituting in the total electric field

     Et = kq {2 R²) / [R²R²]}

     Et =kq 2 / R²

Why is water not used as a liquid in glass thermometers?
Maslowich

Answer:

Water is not able to be used as a thermometer liquid because of its higher freezing point and lower boiling point than the other liquids in general. If water is used in a thermometer, it will start phase variation at 0∘C and 100∘C. This will not help in measuring temperature, beyond this range.

Compare the catching of two different water balloons.
Stels [109]

Answer:

a. The volume V₁ and V₂

b. The case that involves the greatest momentum change = Case B

c. The case that involves the greatest impulse = Case B

d. b. The case that involves the greatest force = Case B

Explanation:

Here we have

Case A: V₁ = 150-mL, v₁ = 8 m/s

Case B: V₂ = 600-mL, v₁ = 8 m/s

a. The variable that is different for the two cases is the volume V₁ and V₂

b. The momentum change is by the following relation;

ΔM₁ = Mass, m × Δv₁

The mass of the balloon are;

Δv₁ = Change in velocity = Final velocity - Initial velocity

Mass = Density × Volume

Density of water = 0.997 g/mL

Case A, mass = 150 × 0.997 = 149.55 g

Case B, mass = 600 × 0.997 = 598.2 g

The momentum change is;

Case A: Mass, m × Δv₁ = 149.55 g/1000 × 8 m/s = 1.1964 g·m/s

Case B:  Mass, m × Δv₁ = 598.2/1000 × 8 = 4.7856 g·m/s

Therefore Case B has the greatest momentum change

The case that has the gretest momentum change = Case B

c. The momentum change = impulse therefore Case B involves the greatest impulse

d. Here we have;

Impulse = Momentum change = F_{average} × Δt = mΔV

∴ F_{average} = m·ΔV/Δt

∴ For Case A F_{average} = 149.55×8/Δt =  1196.4/Δt N

For Case B  F_{average} = 598.2×8/Δt =  4785.6/Δt

Where Δt is the same for Case A and Case B,  F_{average}  for Case B >>  F_{average}  for Case B

Therefore, Case B involves the greatest force.

Solve this system of equations without graphing and show your reasoning <br><br> 5x+y=7<br> 20x+2=y
tatuchka [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

5x + y = 7

20x - y = -2

    25x = 5

        x = (1/5)

5(1/5) + y = 7

1 + y = 7 .

y = 6
