The total electric field consists of the vector sum of two parts. One part has a magnitude of E1 = 1300 N/C and points at an ang

le θ1 = 35o above the +x axis. The other part has a magnitude of E2 = 1700 N/C and points at an angle θ2 = 55o above the +x axis. Find the magnitude and direction of the total field. Specify the directional angle relative to the x axis.

Answer:

2954.6 N/C, 46.36 degree from positive  axis

Explanation:

E1 = 1300 N/C, θ1 = 35 degree

E2 = 1700 N/C, θ2 = 55 degree

Now write the electric fields in vector form

E1 = 1300 ( Cos 35 i + Sin 35 j) = 1064.9 i + 745.6 j

E2 = 1700 ( Cos 55 i + Sin 55 j) = 975.08 i + 1392.6 j

Resultant electric field

E = E1 + E2

E =  1064.9 i + 745.6 j + 975.08 i + 1392.6 j

E = 2039.08 i + 2138.2 j

Magnitude of E

E = sqrt (2039.08^2 + 2138.2^2)

E = 2954.6 N/C

Let it makes an angle Φ from X axis

tan Φ = 2138.2 / 2039.08 = 1.049

Φ = 46.36 degree from positive X axis.

The generation of a magnetic field by an electric current is___ .
Alex787 [66]

Answer:

Electromagnetic induction

Explanation:

The process of generating electric current with a magnetic field. It occurs whenever a magnetic field and an electric conductor move relative to one another so the conductor crosses lines of force in the magnetic field.

A boy weighs 40 kilograms. He runs at a velocity of 4 meters per second north. Which is his momentum?
Bogdan [553]
The boy's momentum is 160 kg*m/s north.

The formula of momentum is p = mv, where p is momentum.
p = 40 kg * 4m/s north
p =160 kg*m/s north

In a car with a mass of 4,000 KG is accelerating at a rate of 2m/s2 and hits a tree what force does it have
Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

According to Newton's second law of motion, the acceleration of a body is directly proportional to the force acting on the body and inversely proportional to its mass. The formula for this law is

F=ma

=4000kg * 2m/s 2 =8000N
