A long, thin rod (length = 4.0 m) lies along the x axis, with its midpoint at the origin. In a vacuum, a +8.0C point charge is f

ixed to one end of the rod, and a -8.0C point charge is fixed to the other end. Everywhere in the x, y plane there is a constant external electric field (magnitude 8.0 × 10^3 N/C) that is perpendicular to the rod. With respect to the z axis, find the magnitude of the net torque applied to the rod.

Answer:

256 x 10³ Nm

Explanation:

Force on each of the charges of 8 C due to uniform electric field in x -y plane  will be equal and opposite because one is positive charge and the other is negative charge. They will make a couple

Each of the forces of the couple will act in x - y plane and will be equal to

F = Q E = 8 X 8 X 10³

= 64 X 10³ N

Arm of the couple = 4 m

Moment of couple about z axis.

= 64 x 10³ x 4

= 256 x 10³ Nm.

a 5.00 kg plane is speeding up on the ground with an applied force of 706 N. If the net force is 450 N, what would be the force
loris [4]

Answer:

The force due to air resistance is 256 N.

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the plane, m = 5 kg

applied force on the plane, Fa = 706 N

the net force on the plane, ∑F= 450 N

Let the force due to air resistance = Fr

The net force on the plane is given as;

Net force = applied force - force due to air resistance

∑F = Fa - Fr

Fr = Fa - ∑F

Fr = 706 - 450

Fr = 256 N.

Therefore, the force due to air resistance is 256 N.

Plain electromagnetic wave (in air) has a frequency of 1 MHz and its B-field amplitude is 9 nT a. What is the wavelength in air?
Norma-Jean [14]

Answer:

Part a)

\lambda = 300 m

Part b)

E = 2.7 N/C

Part c)

I = 9.68 \times 10^{-3} W/m^2

P = 3.22 \times 10^{-11} N/m^2

Explanation:

Part a)

As we know that frequency = 1 MHz

speed of electromagnetic wave is same as speed of light

So the wavelength is given as

\lambda = \frac{c}{f}

\lambda = \frac{3\times 10^8}{1\times 10^6}

\lambda = 300 m

Part b)

As we know the relation between electric field and magnetic field

E = Bc

E = (9 \times 10^{-9})(3\times 10^8)

E = 2.7 N/C

Part c)

Intensity of wave is given as

I = \frac{1}{2}\epsilon_0E^2c

I = \frac{1}{2}(8.85 \times 10^{-12})(2.7)^2(3\times 10^8)

I = 9.68 \times 10^{-3} W/m^2

Pressure is defined as ratio of intensity and speed

P = \frac{I}{c} = \frac{9.68\times 10^{-3}}{3\times 10^8}

P = 3.22 \times 10^{-11} N/m^2

H. A truck starts to move from rest. If it gains the acceleration of 3 m/s2 in 5 sec,
SashulF [63]

Answer:

1. The final velocity of the truck is 15 m/s

2. The distance travelled by the truck is 37.5 m

Explanation:

1. Determination of the final velocity

Initial velocity (u) = 0 m/s

Acceleration (a) = 3 m/s²

Time (t) = 5 s

Final velocity (v) =?

The final velocity of the truck can be obtained as follow:

v = u + at

v = 0 + (3 × 5)

v = 0 + 15

v = 15 m/s

Therefore, the final velocity of the truck is 15 m/s

2. Determination of the distance travelled

Initial velocity (u) = 0 m/s

Acceleration (a) = 3 m/s²

Time (t) = 5 s

Distance (s) =?

The distance travelled by the truck can be obtained as follow:

s = ut + ½at²

s = (0 × 5) + (½ × 3 × 5²)

s = 0 + (½ × 3 × 25)

s = 0 + 37.5

s = 37.5 m

Therefore, the distance travelled by the truck is 37.5 m
