An electron initially 3.00 m from a nonconducting infinite sheet of uniformly distributed charge is fired toward the sheet. The

electron has an initial speed of 420 m/s and travels along a line perpendicular to the sheet. When the electron has traveled 2.00 m, its velocity is instantaneously zero, and it then reverses its direction. What is the surface charge density on the sheet?

Answer:

4.4443704375\times 10^{-18}\ C/m^2

Explanation:

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

\Delta l = Distance charge traveled = 2 m

v = Velocity of electron = 420 m/s

E = Electric field

m_e = Mass of electron = 9.11\times 10^{-31}\ kg

q_e = Charge of electron = 1.6\times 10^{-19}\ C

As the energy of the system is conserved we have

q_eE\Delta l=\dfrac{1}{2}m_ev^2\\\Rightarrow E=\dfrac{1}{2}\dfrac{m_e}{q_e}\times \dfrac{v^2}{\Delta l}\\\Rightarrow E=\dfrac{1}{2}\dfrac{9.11\times 10^{-31}}{1.6\times 10^{-19}}\times \dfrac{420^2}{2}\\\Rightarrow E=2.51094375\times 10^{-7}\ N/C

For an infinite non conducting sheet electric field is given by

E=\dfrac{\sigma}{2\epsilon}\\\Rightarrow \sigma=2E\epsilon\\\Rightarrow \sigma=2\times 2.51094375\times 10^{-7}\times 8.85\times 10^{-12}\\\Rightarrow \sigma=4.4443704375\times 10^{-18}\ C/m^2

The surface charge density is 4.4443704375\times 10^{-18}\ C/m^2

A water heater that has the shape of a right cylindrical tank with a radius of 1 foot and a height of 4 feet is being drained. h
Natali5045456 [20]

<span> </span>For any prism-shaped geometry, the volume (V) is assumed by the product of cross-sectional area (A) and height (h). 

<span> V = Ah </span>

<span>
Distinguishing with respect to time gives the relationship between the rates. 
dV/dt = A*dh/dt</span>

<span> in the meantime the area is not altering </span>

<span>
dV/dt = π*(1 ft)^2*(-0.5 ft/min) </span>

<span>
dV/dt = -π/2 ft^3/min ≈ -1.571 ft^3/min 

Water is draining from the tank at the rate of π/2 ft^3/min.</span>

A mass of 1 kg is moving in a circle of radius 3.3 meters. What is the liner velocity v m/s that would give a Centripetal Force
Ghella [55]

Answer:

The linear velocity of the object is 8.71 m/s.

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the object, m = 1 kg

radius of the circle, r = 3.3 meters

centripetal force, F = 23 N

Centripetal force is given by;

F_c = \frac{mv^2}{r}\\\\

where;

v is the linear velocity of the object

F_c = \frac{mv^2}{r}\\\\mv^2 = F_cr\\\\v^2 = \frac{F_cr}{m}\\\\v= \sqrt{\frac{F_cr}{m}} \\\\v= \sqrt{\frac{23*3.3}{1}}\\\\v = 8.71 \ m/s

Therefore, the linear velocity of the object is 8.71 m/s.

Ezekiel is standing inside a spaceship ( S′ frame) that moves to the right at a speed of v=0.5c , where c is the speed of light.
vova2212 [387]

Answer:

c. Both signals are simultaneous.

Explanation:

The speed of light is the same in all frame of reference.

Since an observer inside the ship receives both signals at the same time, then the signals from both flashlight are simultaneously.
