Answer:

2817.43213 N/C

281.74321 N/C

Explanation:

The metal rod is conducting electricity. This means that the charges are being carried on the surface. Inside the rod there is no electric field. So, the electric field intensity is zero at a distance 3.1 cm.

\epsilon_0 = Permittivity of free space = 8.85\times 10^{-12}\ F/m

r = Distance

\lambda = Charge per unit length = 28.2 nC/m

Electric field is given by

E=\dfrac{\lambda}{2\pi \epsilon_0r}\\\Rightarrow E=\dfrac{28.2\times 10^{-9}}{2\pi \times 8.85\times 10^{-12}\times 0.18}\\\Rightarrow E=2817.43213\ N/C

The electric field intensity is 2817.43213 N/C

E=\dfrac{\lambda}{2\pi \epsilon_0r}\\\Rightarrow E=\dfrac{28.2\times 10^{-9}}{2\pi \times 8.85\times 10^{-12}\times 1.8}\\\Rightarrow E=281.74321\ N/C

The electric field intensity is 281.74321 N/C

A fuel pump sends gasoline from a car's fuel tank to the engine at a rate of 5.64 10-2 kg/s. the density of the gasoline is 735
Irina18 [472]
Given:
Gasoline pumping rate, R = 5.64 x 10⁻² kg/s
Density of gasoline, D = 735 kg/m³
Radius of fuel line, r = 3.43 x 10⁻³ m

Calculate the cross sectional area of the fuel line.
A = πr² = π(3.43 x 10⁻³ m)² = 3.6961 x 10⁻⁵ m²

Let v =  speed of pumping the gasoline, m/s
Then the mass flow rate is 
M = AvD = (3.6961 x 10⁻⁵ m²)*(v m/s)*(735 kg/m³) = 0.027166v kg/s

The gasoline pumping rate is given as 5.64 x 10⁻² kg/s, therefore
0.027166v = 0.0564
v = 2.076 m/s

Answer:  2.076 m/s
The gasoline moves through the fuel line at 2.076 m/s.

A 4 cm diameter ball is located 40 cm from a point source and 80 cm from a wall. What is the size of the shadow on the wall?
Slav-nsk [51]
<span>11.823 cm There is a slight ambiguity with this question in that I don't know if the measurements are from the surface of the ball, or the center of the ball. I will take this question literally and as such the point light source will be 124 cm from the wall. The key thing to remember is that ball won't be showing an effective diameter of 4 cm to the light source. Instead the shadow line is a tangent to the ball's surface. There is a right triangle where the hypotenuse is the distance from the center of the ball to the light source (42 cm), one leg of the triangle is the radius (2cm). That right triangle will define a chord that will be the effective diameter of the disk casting the shadow. The cosine of the half angle of the chord will be 2/42 = 1/21. The sine of the half angle then becomes sqrt(1-(1/21)^2) = sqrt(440/441) = 2sqrt(110) = 0.99886557. Now multiply that sine by 4 (radius of ball multiplied by 2 since it's the half angle and we want the full side of the chord) and we get an effective diameter of 3.995462279 cm. Now we need to calculate the effective distance that circle is from the wall. It will be slightly larger than 82 cm. The exact value will be 82 + cos(half angle) * radius. So 82 + 1/21 * 2 = 82 + 2/21 = 82.0952381 Now we have the following dimensions with a circle replacing the ball in the original problem. Distance from wall to effective circle = 82.0952381 cm Distance from effective circle to point source = 124 - 82.0952381 = 41.9047619 cm Effective diameter of circle = 3.995462279 cm And because the geometry makes similar triangles, the following ratio applies. 3.995462279/41.9047619 = X/124 Now solve for X 3.995462279/41.9047619 = X/124 124*3.995462279/41.9047619 = X 495.4373226/41.9047619 = X 11.82293611 = X The shadow cast on the wall will be a circle with a diameter of 11.823 cm</span>
