1. The problem statement, all variables and given/known data What is the work required to move a positive charge of 10 C for a distance of 6 m in the same direction as a uniform electric field of 50 V/m? 2. Relevant equations W=F*d F=q*E 3. The attempt at a solution F=q*E F= 10C*50V/m F=500 W=F*d W=500*6m W=3000J

lions [1.4K]

Answer:

Approximately $4.61\times 10^{3}\; {\rm N}$ upwards (assuming that $g = 9.81\; {\rm m\cdot s^{-2}}$ .)

Explanation:

External forces on this astronaut:

Weight (gravitational attraction) from the earth (downwards,) and
Normal force from the floor (upwards.)

Let $(\text{normal force})$ denote the magnitude of the normal force on this astronaut from the floor. Since the direction of the normal force is opposite to the direction of the gravitational attraction, the magnitude of the net force on this astronaut would be:

$\begin{aligned}(\text{net force}) &= (\text{normal force}) - (\text{weight})\end{aligned}$ .

Let $m$ denote the mass of this astronaut. The magnitude of the gravitational attraction on this astronaut would be $(\text{weight}) = m\, g$ .

Let $a$ denote the acceleration of this astronaut. The magnitude of the net force on this astronaut would be $(\text{net force}) = m\, a$ .

Rearrange $\begin{aligned}(\text{net force}) &= (\text{normal force}) - (\text{weight})\end{aligned}$ to obtain an expression for the magnitude of the normal force on this astronaut:

$\begin{aligned}(\text{normal force}) &= (\text{net force}) + (\text{weight}) \\ &= m\, a + m\, g \\ &= m\, (a + g) \\ &= 80.9\; {\rm kg} \times (47.2\; {\rm m\cdot s^{-2}} + 9.81\; {\rm m\cdot s^{-2}}) \\ &\approx 4.61 \times 10^{3}\; {\rm N}\end{aligned}$ .
