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

An experimental arrangement for measuring the thermal conductivity of solid materials involves the use of two long rods that are
Kamila [148]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given:

The two rods could be approximated as a fins of infinite length.

TA = 75 0C θA = (TA - T∞) = 75 - 25 = 50 0C

TB = 55 0C     θB = (TB - T∞) = 55 - 25 = 30 0C

Tb = 100 0C   θb = (Tb - T∞) = (100 - 25) = 75 0C

KA = 200 W/m · K

T∞ = 25 0C

Solution:

The temperature distribution for the infinite fins are given by

θ/θb=e⁻mx

θA/θb= e-√(hp/A.kA) x1    ....................(1)

 θB/θb = e-√(hp/A.kB) x1.......................(2)

Taking natural log on both sides we get,

Ln(θA/θb) = -√(hp/A.kA) x1 ...................(3)

Ln(θB/θb) = -√(hp/A.kB) x1 .....................(4)

Dicving (3) and (4) we get

[ Ln(θA/θb) /Ln(θB/θb)] = √(KB/KA)

 [ Ln(50/75) /Ln(30/75)] = √(KB/200)

In a paragraph of 125 words, explain at least three ways that engineers explore possible solutions in their
joja [24]

Answer:

Three ways that engineers explore possible solutions in their projects are;

1) Prototyping

2) Simulation

3) Calculations

Explanation:

1) Prototyping is the process of experimental testing of samples of design, or model of a product with the possibility of the inclusion of control of parameters in order to determine the workability of a solution.

2) Simulation is the process of creating an imitation of a situation, operation or process which can be used to determine if a particular solution will be able to work as required in the simulated environment of a problem.

3) Calculations are used to find preliminary results of particular situations, their cause and effects based on scientific laws, theories and hypothesis such that the factor of the problem is equated with the available ideas to find the best possible solution.
