Explanation:

Formula for angle subtended at the center of the circular arc is as follows.

           \theta = \frac{S}{r}

where,   S = length of the rod

              r = radius

Putting the given values into the above formula as follows.      

                \theta = \frac{S}{r}

                             = \frac{4}{2}

                             = 2 radians (\frac{180^{o}}{\pi})

                             = 114.64^{o}

Now, we will calculate the charge density as follows.

                 \lambda = \frac{Q}{L}

                            = \frac{18 \times 10^{-9} C}{4 m}

                            = 4.5 \times 10^{-9} C/m

Now, at the center of arc we will calculate the electric field as follows.

                 E = \frac{2k \lambda Sin (\frac{\theta}{2})}{r}

                     = \frac{2(9 \times 10^{9} Nm^{2}/C^{2})(4.5 \times 10^{-9}) Sin (\frac{114.64^{o}}{2})}{2 m}

                      = 34.08 N/C

Thus, we can conclude that the magnitude of the electric eld at the center of curvature of the arc is 34.08 N/C.

Shari uses the data in the table to predict how her weight on Venus would compare with her weight on Earth.
spin [16.1K]

Answer :  <em>Her weight is lower on Venus because the acceleration due to gravity is lower.</em>

Explanation :

Venus is also called as Earth's twin. This is because both the mass and the size of Earth and Venus are almost same. The acceleration due to gravity on earth is 9.8\ m/s^2 while on Venus is 8.87\ m/s^2.

So, when Shari measure her weight on Venus she found her weight is lower on Venus. This is because the acceleration due to gravity is lower on the surface of Venus as compared to the Earth.

Since,    w=mg

i.e. weight depends on g.

<em>So, correct prediction is (b)</em>

Infer how distance and speed in the motions of a clock parts are used to measure time
Assoli18 [71]
<span>"Time is like wax, dripping from a candle flame. In the moment, it is molten and falling, with the capability to transform into any shape. Then the moment passes, and the wax hits the table top and solidifies into the shape it will always be. It becomes the past, a solid single record of what happened, still holding in its wild curves and contours the potential of every shape it could have held."</span>
