<em>Answer:  D</em>

<em>Given data:</em>

The electric field due to charge q₁  is (E₁) = 1.5 × 10⁵ N/C

The electric field due to charge q₂ is (E₂) = 7.2 × 10⁵ N/C

Determine the net electric field at point P (Enet) = ?

electric field measured in Newtons/coulomb

<em>We know that,</em>

        The net electric field (Enet) is vector sum of E₁ and E₂ caused by the charge q₁ and q₂ respectively

             Enet = E₁ + E₂

                       = (1.5 × 10⁵)+ (7.2 × 10⁵)

                       = 8.7 × 10⁵ Newtons/coulomb

<em>The net electric field at point P is  8.7 × 10⁵ N/C</em>

The aluminum wire in a high-voltage transmission line is 2.7 cm in diameter. It is designed to carry a current of 1100 A. What i
marissa [1.9K]

Answer:

1660 V

Explanation:

Resistance should be determined and then voltage drop across the power line can be determined.

R = ρ L /A  

Here ρ = Resistivity of aluminum = 2.7\times 10^{-8}\Omega m

L = length = 32 km = 32,000 m

Area of cross section = A = π r² = π (0.027/2)² = 0.00057255 m²

Resistance = R =

(2.7\times 10^{-8}\Omega m (32,000)/(0.00057255) = 1.5090 Ohms.

Voltage drop = V = I R = (1100)(1.5090) = 1659.9 V.

(If resistivity value is different, then the resistance will be different and hence final answer for voltage will also vary ).

An ideal gas, initially at a pressure of 11.2 atm and a temperature of 299 K, is allowed to expand adiabatically until its volum
Tju [1.3M]

Answer:

The pressure is  P_2  =  4.25 \ a.t.m

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The initial pressure is P_1  =  11.2\ a.t.m

   The  temperature is  T_1 =   299 \ K

   

Let the first volume be  V_1 Then the final volume will be  2 V_1

 Generally for a diatomic  gas

           P_1 V_1 ^r  =  P_2  V_2  ^r

Here r is the radius of the molecules which is  mathematically represented as

    r =  \frac{C_p}{C_v}

Where C_p \  and\   C_v are the molar specific heat of a gas at constant pressure and  the molar specific heat of a gas at constant volume with values

     C_p=7 \  and\   C_v=5

=>   r =  \frac{7}{5}

=>  11.2*( V_1 ^{\frac{7}{5} } ) =  P_2  *  (2 V_1 ^{\frac{7}{5} } )

=>   P_2  =  [\frac{1}{2} ]^{\frac{7}{5} } * 11.2

=>  P_2  =  4.25 \ a.t.m
