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.

Which of the following equations describes Newton’s second law
svp [43]
C.

Newton’s Second Law is F=ma (force is equal to the mass multiplied by acceleration), however, the equation can be rearranged to isolate and calculate mass from force over acceleration. Therefore, m=F/a
