Answer

given,

Side of copper plate, L = 55 cm

Electric field, E = 82 kN/C

a) Charge density,σ = ?

  using expression of charge density

 σ = E x ε₀

ε₀ is Permittivity of free space = 8.85 x 10⁻¹² C²/Nm²

now,

 σ = 82 x 10³ x 8.85 x 10⁻¹²

 σ = 725.7 x 10⁻⁹ C/m²

 σ = 725.7 nC/m²

change density on the plates are 725.7 nC/m² and -725.7 nC/m²

b) Total change on each faces

   Q = σ  A

   Q = 725.7 x 10⁻⁹ x 0.55²

   Q = 219.52 nC

Hence, charges on the faces of the plate are 219.52 nC and -219.52 nC

Which type of wave affects the surface of the land by causing it to rise and fall like waves on an ocean?
denis-greek [22]
It is a seismic wave that effects the surface of the land by causing it to rise and fall like waves in an ocean. Seismic waves can be broken down into a number of different types. Specifically, it is a Raleigh surface wave that behaves much like water waves since it moves the ground up and down as it travels. Seismic waves are produced in earthquakes.

Consider an electric dipole in a uniform electric field. In which orientation does the dipole-field system have the greatest pot
Gekata [30.6K]

Answer: when the dipole moment and electric field are parallel

Explanation: The formulae that relates the potential energy of a dipole, dipole moment and strength of electric field is given as

u = p * E cosθ

Where, u= dipole potential energy, p = dipole moment, E = strength of electric field.

The expression is at maximum when θ = 0 (cos 0° = 1)

Hence the function for potential energy will be greatest when θ = 0° which implies that the dipole moment and strength of electric field are parallel to each other.
