Answer:

a positive test charge will move in the field

Explanation:

The direction of an electric field corresponds to the direction of motion of a positive test charge in the electric field. In fact:

- the electric field produced by a positive charge points outwards the charge --> this is because when a positive test charge is placed in this field, it will feel a repulsive force (because two positive charges repel each other), so it will move away from the positive charge that produces the field

- the electric field produced by a negative charge points towards the charge  itself--> this is because when a positive test charge is placed in this field, it will feel an attractive force (because a positive and a negative charge attract each other), so it will move toward the negative charge that produces the field.

A cat is sleeping on the floor in the middle of a 2.8-m-wide room when a barking dog enters with a speed of 1.40 m/s. As the dog
marysya [2.9K]

Answer:

the cat is  0.4238 m in front of the dog as it leaps through the window

Explanation:

Given that;

acceleration a = 0.85 m/s²

speed v = 1.40 m/s

the cat is at rest, so initial velocity u = 0  

we know that, since the cat is sleeping on the floor in the middle of a 2.8-m-wide room, it needs to cover (2.8 m / 2 ) distance to get to the window;

using the second equation equation of motion;

s = ut + 1/2 at²  

we substitute

2.8/2 = 0×t + 1/2 × 0.85 × t²

1.4 = 0.425t²

t = √( 1.4 / 0.425 )

t = 1.81497 sec

now, at acceleration 0.10 m/s²

the dog has to cover the distance;

s = ut + 1/2 at²  

s = ( 1.4 × 1.81497) - 1/2 × 0.10 × 1.81497²

s =  2.540958 - 0.1647

s = 2.3762 m  

The cant in front of the dog as it leaps through the window;

distance = 2.8 m - 2.3762 m

distance = 0.4238 m

Therefore, the cat is  0.4238 m in front of the dog as it leaps through the window

At 900.0 K, the equilibrium constant (Kp) for the following reaction is 0.345. 2SO2(g)+O2(g)→2SO3(g) At equilibrium, the partial
elena55 [62]

Answer : The partial pressure of SO_3 is, 67.009 atm

Solution :  Given,

Partial pressure of SO_2 at equilibrium = 30.6 atm

Partial pressure of O_2 at equilibrium = 13.9 atm

Equilibrium constant = K_p=0.345

The given balanced equilibrium reaction is,

2SO_2(g)+O_2(g)\rightleftharpoons 2SO_3(g)

The expression of K_p will be,

K_p=\frac{(p_{SO_3})^2}{(p_{SO_2})^2\times (p_{O_2})}

Now put all the values of partial pressure, we get

0.345=\frac{(p_{SO_3})^2}{(30.6)^2\times (13.9)}

p_{SO_3}=67.009atm

Therefore, the partial pressure of SO_3 is, 67.009 atm
