Common transparent tape becomes charged when pulled from a dispenser. If one piece is placed above another, the repulsice force

can be great enough to support the top pieces weight. Assuming equal point charges, calculate the magnitide of the charge if electrostatic force is great enough to support the weight of a 11.0 mg piece of tape held 1.00 cm above another.

Answer:

Q = 1.095 x 10^-9 C

Let the force experienced by the top piece of tape be F

F = kQ²/r²

r = distance between the two pieces tape = 1.00cm = 1.00 x 10^ -2 m

1/4(pi)*Eo = k = 8.99 x 10^9 Nm²/C²

The electric force of repulsion between the two charges and the weight of the top piece of tape are equal so

F = kQ²/r² = mg

Where m is the mass of the top piece of tape and g is the acceleration due to gravity

On re-arranging the equation above,

Q² = mgr²/k

Q² = ((11.0 x 10^-6) x 9.8 x (1.00x10^-2)²)/(8.99 x 10^9)

Q = 1.095x10^-9 C

Explanation:

The charge Q on both pieces of tape are equal and both act with a force of repulsion on each other.

The force of repulsion between both tapes pushes the top piece of tape upwards. The weight of the top piece of tape acts vertically downward. Since the top tape is in a position of equilibrium, the two forces acting on the top piece of tape must be equal to each other. This assumption is backed up by newton's first law of motion which states that the summation of all forces acting on a body at rest must be equal to zero. That is

Fe (electric force) - Fg (gravitational force) = 0

Fe = Fg

kQ²/r² = mg

On substituting the respective values for all variables except Q and rearranging the equation Q = 1.09 x 10^-9

A certain superconducting magnet in the form of a solenoid of length 0.72 m can generate a magnetic field of 3.5 T in its core w
ira [324]

Answer:

55407

Explanation:

we have given that magnetic field B=3.5 T

current through the coil=90 A

Length of solenoid =0.72 m

we know the formula of magnetic field

B=\frac{\mu _0NI}{l}

so N=\frac{Bl}{\mu _0I}=\frac{3.5\times 0.72}{4\pi \times 10^{-6}\times 90}=55407.277=55407\ turns

so the number of turn in solenoid will be 55407
