What is a locus of points

Physics
2 answers:
svetlana [45]4 years ago

A locus is the set of all points (usually forming a curve or surface) satisfying some condition. For example, the locus of points in the plane equidistant from a given point is a circle, and the set of points in three-space equidistant from a given point is a sphere.

9. Complete the following statement:
mario62 [17]

Answer:

E) the flow of energy due to a temperature difference.

Explanation:

Heat can be described as the flow of energy due to a temperature difference.

Which is expressed mathematically as;

H = MCΔT

Where;

H is the quantity of heat in a body, measured in Joules

M is the mass of the body, measured in kg

C is the specific heat capacity of the body, J/kg.K

ΔT is change in temperature or temperature difference.

So, heat energy in any system flows from a hotter region to a colder region due to temperature difference.

E) the flow of energy due to a temperature difference.

Can laws in science change
lorasvet [3.4K]
Laws reflect scientific knowledge that experiments have repeatedly verified (and never falsified). Their accuracy does not change when new theories are worked out, but rather the scope of application, since the equation (if any) representing the law does not change.

A solid sphere of radius 40.0cm has a total positive charge of 26.0μC uniformly distributed throughout its volume. Calculate the
Rudiy27

The magnitude of the electric field for 60 cm is 6.49 × 10^5 N/C

R(radius of the solid sphere)=(60cm)( 1m /100cm)=0.6m

Q\;(\text{total charge of the solid sphere})=(26\;\mathrm{\mu C})\left(\dfrac{1\;\mathrm{C}}{10^6\;\mathrm{\mu C}} \right)={26\times 10^{-6}\;\mathrm{C}}

Since the Gaussian sphere of radius r>R encloses all the charge of the sphere similar to the situation in part (c), we can use Equation (6) to find the magnitude of the electric field:

E=\dfrac{Q}{4\pi\epsilon_0 r^2}

Substitute numerical values:

E&=\dfrac{24\times 10^{-6}}{4\pi (8.8542\times 10^{-12})(0.6)}\\ &={6.49\times 10^5\;\mathrm{N/C}\;\text{directed radially outward}}}

The spherical Gaussian surface is chosen so that it is concentric with the charge distribution.

As an example, consider a charged spherical shell S of negligible thickness, with a uniformly distributed charge Q and radius R. We can use Gauss's law to find the magnitude of the resultant electric field E at a distance r from the center of the charged shell. It is immediately apparent that for a spherical Gaussian surface of radius r < R the enclosed charge is zero: hence the net flux is zero and the magnitude of the electric field on the Gaussian surface is also 0 (by letting QA = 0 in Gauss's law, where QA is the charge enclosed by the Gaussian surface).

Danielle exerts a 14.0 N force to compress a spring by a distance of 8.00 cm. What is the spring constant of this spring
Lady_Fox [76]

Answer:

175 N/m

Explanation:

Given:

Force = F=  14.0 N

Distance = x = 8.00 cm = 0.08 m

To find:

spring constant

Solution:

spring constant is calculated by using Hooke's law:

k =  F/x

Putting the values in above formula:

k = 14.0 / 0.08

k = 175 N/m
