A charge Q accumulates on the hollow metallic dome, of radius R, of a Van de Graaff generator. A probe measures the electric fie

ld strength at various points outside the sphere surface. By what factor will the electric field value at the 2R distance be changed if the charge value were increased to (4/3)Q?

Answer:

E'=(3/16)E

Explanation:

The electric field generated by a Van de Graff generator can be taken as the electric field generated by a hollow shell (for distance out of the shell):

E=k\frac{Q}{R^2}

Q: electric charge

K: Coulomb's constant

R: distance in which E is measured.

If the distance is increased to R'=2R, and the charge to Q'=(4/3)Q the new electric field is:

E'=k\frac{Q'}{R'^2}=k\frac{(3/4)Q}{(2R)^2}=\frac{3}{4}k\frac{Q}{4R^2}=\frac{3}{16}k\frac{Q}{R^2}=\frac{3}{16}E

hence, the new electric field E' is 3/16 times the previous electric field E

Un auto de 1000 kg que lleva una velocidad de 72 km/h se detiene en una distancia de 100 metros cuando se le aplican los frenos.
Flura [38]

Answer:

a)    F = 2000 N , B)   x = 25 m

Explanation:

a) To solve this exercise we can use the relationship between work and kinetic energy

          W = ΔK

The job is

           W = -F x

the negative sign is because the force of the brakes is contrary to the movement

as the car stops its final kinetic energy is zero

           K = ½ m v²

let's substitute

         - F x = 0 - ½ m v²

            F = ½ m v² / x

Let's reduce the magnitudes to the SI system

           v = 72 km / h (1000m / 1km) (1 h / 3600 s) = 20 m / s

let's calculate

          F = ½ 1000 20²/100

          F = 2000 N

b) x = ½ mv2 / F

let's slow down to the SI system

         v = 36 km / h = 10 m / s

let's calculate

             x = ½ 1000 10²/2000

             x = 25 m

A charge -353e is uniformly distributed along a circular arc of radius 5.30 cm, which subtends an angle of 48°. What is the line
vladimir2022 [97]

Answer:

- 1.3 x 10⁻¹⁵ C/m

Explanation:

Q = Total charge on the circular arc = - 353 e = - 353 (1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹) C = - 564.8 x 10⁻¹⁹ C

r = Radius of the arc = 5.30 cm = 0.053 m

θ = Angle subtended by the arc = 48° deg = 48 x 0.0175 rad = 0.84 rad        (Since 1 deg = 0.0175 rad)

L = length of the arc

length of the arc is given as

L = r θ

L = (0.053) (0.84)

L = 0.045 m

λ = Linear charge density

Linear charge density is given as

\lambda =\frac{Q}{L}

Inserting the values

\lambda =\frac{-564.8\times 10^{-19}}{0.045}

λ = - 1.3 x 10⁻¹⁵ C/m

What is the current when the voltage is 18 volts and the resistance is 6 ohms?
juin [17]
Voltage = current(I) * resistance (R)
V = 18
R = 6

18 = I * 6
I = 18/6 = 3 Amps or D
