A 16 g piece of Styrofoam carries a net charge of -8.6 µC and floats above the center of a large horizontal sheet of plastic tha
t has a uniform charge density on its surface. What is the charge per unit area on the plastic sheet?
1 answer:
Answer:
the charge per unit area on the plastic sheet is - 3.23 x 10⁻⁷ C/m²
Explanation:
given information:
styrofoam mass, m = 16 g = 0.016 kg
net charge, q = - 8.6 μC
to calculate the charge per unit area on the plastic sheet, we can use the following equation:
where
the force between the electric field
m = mass
g = gravitational force
where
q = charge
E = electric field
and
E = σ/2ε₀
where
ε₀ = permitivity
thus
mg = qσ/2ε₀
σ = (2mg ε₀)/q
= 2 (0.016) (9.8) (8.85 x 10⁻¹²)/( - 8.6 x 10⁻⁶)
= - 3.23 x 10⁻⁷ C/m²

Answer:
10 rad/s
Explanation:
The gears have the same linear speed.
ω₁ r₁ = ω₂ r₂
(25 rad/s) (2R) = ω (5R)
ω = 10 rad/s
Deciliter = 1/10 of a liter
Milliliter = 1/1000 of a liter
So, there are 100 milliliters in one deciliter
