A disk of radius a has a total charge Q uniformly distributed over its surface. The disk has negligible thickness and lies in th
sleet_krkn [62]

The electric potential V(z) on the z-axis is :  V = (\frac{Q}{a^2} ) [ (a^2 + z^2)^{\frac{1}{2} } -z

The magnitude of the electric field on the z axis is : E = kб 2\pi( 1 - [z / √(z² + a² ) ] )

<u>Given data :</u>

V(z) =2kQ / a²(v(a² + z²) ) -z  

<h3>Determine the electric potential V(z) on the z axis and magnitude of the electric field</h3>

Considering a disk with radius R

Charge = dq

Also the distance from the edge to the point on the z-axis = √ [R² + z²].

The surface charge density of the disk ( б ) = dq / dA

Small element charge dq =  б( 2πR ) dr

dV  \frac{k.dq}{\sqrt{R^2+z^2} } \\\\= \frac{k(\alpha (2\pi R)dR}{\sqrt{R^2+z^2} }  ----- ( 1 )

Integrating equation ( 1 ) over for full radius of a

∫dv = \int\limits^a_o {\frac{k(\alpha (2\pi R)dR)}{\sqrt{R^2+z^2} } } \,

 V = \pi k\alpha [ (a^2+z^2)^\frac{1}{2} -z ]

     = \pi k (\frac{Q}{\pi \alpha ^2})[(a^2 +z^2)^{\frac{1}{2} }  -z ]

Therefore the electric potential V(z) = (\frac{Q}{a^2} ) [ (a^2 + z^2)^{\frac{1}{2} } -z

Also

The magnitude of the electric field on the z axis is : E = kб 2\pi( 1 - [z / √(z² + a² ) ] )

Hence we can conclude that the answers to your question are as listed above.

In order to slide a heavy desk across the floor at constant speed in a straight line, you have to exert a horizontal force of 40
san4es73 [151]

Answer:

F = f from Newton’s first law.

Explanation:

since the desk is moved in a straight line at a constant speed, newton first law tell us that the two forces must be equal.

Newton's First Law states that an object will remain at rest or in uniform motion in a straight line unless acted upon by an external force. since the table has been set in motion by the 400 N force, it will remain in motion unless it is been acted upon by an external force, and this means that the 400 N must be equal to the frictional force for it to have been in motion in the first instance.

A source charge generates an electric field of 4286 N/C at a distance of 2. 5 m. What is the magnitude of the source charge? (Us
svp [43]

The magnitude of the source charge is 3 μC which generates 4286 N/C of the electric field. Option B is correct.

What does Gauss Law state?

It states that the electric flux across any closed surface is directly proportional to the net electric charge enclosed by the surface.

Q = \dfrac {ER^2}k

Where,

E = electric force = 4286 N/C

k = Coulomb constant = 8.99 \times  10^9 \rm\ N m ^2 /C ^2

Q\\&#10;     = charges = ?

r = distance of separation = 2.5 m

Put the values in the formula,

Q  = \dfrac {4286\times  2.5 ^2}{8.99 \times  10^9 }\\\\&#10;Q  = 3\rm \  \mu C

Therefore, the magnitude of the source charge is 3 μC.

Will kilogram of hydrogen contains more atoms than kilogram of lead?
Zigmanuir [339]
Yes a kg of hydrogen will have more atoms than a kg of lead, because lead has a higher atomic mass, than hydrogen so it will take more atoms of hydrogen to make a kg than lead
