Answer:

when the radius is halved, F becomes 4 times

Explanation:

<u><em>The formula is given by</em></u>

F = \frac{Gm1m2}{r^2}

<u><em>When r is halved:</em></u>

F = \frac{Gm1m2}{(1/2r)^2}

=> F = \frac{Gm1m2}{1/4 r^2}

=> F = 4(\frac{Gm1m2}{r^2} )

<u><em>This means when the radius is halved, F becomes 4 times</em></u>

A coaxial cable has a charged inner conductor (with charge +8.5 µC and radius 1.304 mm) and a surrounding oppositely charged con
Tcecarenko [31]

Complete question:

A 50 m length of coaxial cable has a charged inner conductor (with charge +8.5 µC and radius 1.304 mm) and a surrounding oppositely charged conductor (with charge −8.5 µC and radius 9.249 mm).

Required:

What is the magnitude of the electric field halfway between the two cylindrical conductors? The Coulomb constant is 8.98755 × 10^9 N.m^2 . Assume the region between the conductors is air, and neglect end effects. Answer in units of V/m.

Answer:

The magnitude of the electric field halfway between the two cylindrical conductors is 5.793 x 10⁵ V/m

Explanation:

Given;

charge of the coaxial capable, Q = 8.5 µC = 8.5  x 10⁻⁶ C

length of the conductor, L = 50 m

inner radius, r₁ = 1.304 mm

outer radius, r₂ = 9.249 mm

The magnitude of the electric field halfway between the two cylindrical conductors is given by;

E = \frac{\lambda}{2\pi \epsilon_o r} = \frac{Q}{2\pi \epsilon_o r L}

Where;

λ is linear charge density or charge per unit length

r is the distance halfway between the two cylindrical conductors

r = r_1 + \frac{1}{2}(r_2-r_1) \\\\r = 1.304 \ mm \ + \  \frac{1}{2}(9.249 \ mm-1.304 \ mm)\\\\r = 1.304 \ mm \ + \ 3.9725 \ mm\\\\r = 5.2765 \ mm

The magnitude of the electric field is now given as;

E = \frac{8.5*10^{-6}}{2\pi(8.85*10^{-12})(5.2765*10^{-3})(50)} \\\\E = 5.793*10^5 \ V/m

Therefore, the magnitude of the electric field halfway between the two cylindrical conductors is 5.793 x 10⁵ V/m

Which types of numbers does scientific notation best describe?
Travka [436]
The correct answer is
<span>c) very small and very large

Let's see this with a few examples:
1) if we have a very small number, such as
</span>0.0000000001
<span>we see that we can write it easily by using the scientific notation:
</span>1\cdot 10^{-10}
<span>2) Similarly, if we have a very large number:
</span>10000000000
<span>we see that we can write it easily by using again the scientific notation:
</span>1 \cdot 10^{10}<span>
</span>

A beam of white light enters a prism of crown glass (n = 1.5) from air (n = 1.00). Once inside, the colors in the light disperse
eduard

Answer:

= 2.33

Explanation:

.According to snell's law:

n1sin i = n2sin r ,

where n1 is refractive index of the medium in which incident ray is travelling, n2 is the refractive index of the medium in which refracted ray is travelling,

i is angle of incidence,

r is angle of refraction.

Given that,

n1 = 1,

i = 51 degrees,

r = 19.5 degrees. ,

n2= ?

So,

1*sin 51 = n2 sin 19.5  

=> n2 = sin51 / sin19.5

 = 2.33
