A charge of 3 nC is uniformly distributed around a ring of radius 10 cm that has its center at the origin and its axis along the

x axis. A point charge of 1 nC is located at x = 2.5 m. Find the work required to move the point charge to the origin. Hint: The electric field on the axis was calculated in class (see Example 3 in the the slides for Lecture 16).

Answer:

W=2.592*10^{-7} J

Explanation:

GIVEN DATA:

Charge 3 nC

Radius of ring is 10 cm

A point charge 1 nC

Distance of point charge is 2.5 m

We know that voltage is calculated as

V(0) =\frac{KQ}{r}

      =\frac{(9*10^{-9})(3*10^{-9})}{0.1}

V = 270 V

At x = 2.5m

r = \sqrt{(0.1^2+2.5^2)}

r = 1.581 m

V(2) = \frac{(9*10^9)(3*10^{-9})}{1.581}

V(2) = 10.801 V

Work done is calculated as

W= q(dV)

W = (1*10^{-9})(270 - 10.80)

W=2.592*10^{-7} J

The change in pitch of a train's horn as it passes while you are
standing still can be described by the Doppler effect, but that
doesn't explain it.

Dimension of density <br>​
Rom4ik [11]

Answer:

See the explanation below.

Explanation:

We know that density is defined as the relationship between mass and volume.

Ro = m/V

where:

m = mass [kg]

V = volume [m³]

Therefore Ro is given in:

[kg/m^{3} ]

A single-slit diffraction pattern is formed on a distant screen. Assuming the angles involved are small, by what factor will the
Novay_Z [31]

Answer:

It will be cut in half

Explanation:

The diffraction of a slit is given by the formula

a sin θ = m where

a = width of the slit,

λ = wavelength and

m = integer that determines the order of diffraction.

Next we divide both sides by a, we have

sin θ = m λ / a

Also, recall that

a’ = 2 a

Then we substitute in the previous equation

2asin θ' = m λ, if divide by 2a, we have

sin θ' = (m λ / 2a).

Now again, from the first equation, we said that sin θ = m λ / a, so we substitute

sin θ ’= sin θ / 2

Then we use trigonometry to find the width, we say

tan θ = y / L

Since the angle is small, we then have

tan θ = sin θ / cos θ

tan θ = sin θ, this then means that

sin θ = y / L

we will then substitute

y’ / L = y/L 1/2

y' = y / 2

this means that when the slit width is doubled the pattern width will then be halved
