Answer:

(a). If z = 0, The electric field due to the rod is zero.

(b). If z =  ∞, The electric field due to the rod is E\propto\dfrac{1}{z^2}.

(c). The positive distance is \dfrac{R}{\sqrt{2}}

(d). The maximum magnitude of electric field is 1.54\times10^{4}\ N/C

Explanation:

Given that,

Radius = 2.00 cm

Charge = 4.00 mC

(a). If the radius and charge are R and Q.

We need to calculate the electric field due to the rod

Using formula of electric field

E=\dfrac{1}{4\pi\epsilon_{0}}\dfrac{Qz}{(z^2+R^2)^{\frac{2}{3}}}

Where, Q = charge

z = distance

If z = 0,

Then, The electric field is

E=0

(b). If z = ∞, z>>R

So, R = 0

Then, the electric field is

E=\dfrac{1}{4\pi\epsilon_{0}}\dfrac{Q}{z^2}

E\propto\dfrac{1}{z^2}

(c). In terms of R,

We need to calculate the positive distance

If E\rightarrow E_{max}

Then, \dfrac{dE}{dz}=0

\dfrac{Q}{4\pi\epsilon_{0}}(\dfrac{(z^2+R^2)^\frac{3}{2}-\dfrac{3z}{2}(z^2+R^2)^\dfrac{1}{2}}{(z^2+R^2)^2})=0

Taking only positive distance

z=\dfrac{R}{\sqrt{2}}

(d). If R = 2.00 and Q = 4.00 mC

We need to calculate the maximum magnitude of electric field

Using formula of electric field

E_{max}=\dfrac{1}{4\pi\epsilon_{0}}\dfrac{Qz}{(z^2+R^2)^{\frac{2}{3}}}

E_{max}=9\times10^{9}\times\dfrac{4.0\times10^{-6}\times\dfrac{2.00}{\sqrt{2}}}{((\dfrac{2.00}{\sqrt{2}})^2+(2.00)^2)^{\frac{2}{3}}}

E_{max}=15418.7\ N/C

E_{max}=1.54\times10^{4}\ N/C

Hence, (a). If z = 0, The electric field due to the rod is zero.

(b). If z =  ∞, The electric field due to the rod is E\propto\dfrac{1}{z^2}.

(c). The positive distance is \dfrac{R}{\sqrt{2}}

(d). The maximum magnitude of electric field is 1.54\times10^{4}\ N/C

What is the average acceleration of a tennis ball that has an initial velocity of 6.0 m/s [E] and a final velocity of 7.3 m/s [W
Marizza181 [45]

Given :

The average acceleration of a tennis ball that has an initial velocity of 6.0 m/s.

and a final velocity of 7.3 m/s.

It is in contact with a tennis racket for 0.094 s

To Find :

The average acceleration of the tennis ball.

Solution :

We know, average acceleration is given by :

a_{avg}=\dfrac{Final \ velocity-Initial\ velocity}{Time\ Taken}\\\\a_{avg}=\dfrac{7.3-6.0}{0.094}\ m/s^2\\\\a_{avg}=13.83\ m/s^2

Therefore, average velocity is given by 13.83 m/s².

Hence, this is the required solution.

Describe how thermal energy is transferred​
ikadub [295]

Answer:

Thermal energy typically flows from a warmer material to a cooler material. Generally, when thermal energy is transferred to a material, the motion of its particles speeds up and its temperature increases. There are three methods of thermal energy transfer: conduction, convection, and radiation.

inessss [21]

Answer:

Part a)

m_2 = 4.9 \times 10^7 kg

Part b)

q_1 = q_2 = 5312.6 C

Explanation:

Part a)

As we know that both charge particles will exert equal and opposite force on each other

so here the force on both the charges will be equal in magnitude

so we will have

F = m_1a_1 = m_2a_2

here we have

6.3 \times 10^7(7) = m_2(9)

now we have

m_2 = 4.9 \times 10^7 kg

Part b)

Now for the force between two charges we can say

F = \frac{kq_1q_2}{r^2}

now we have

(6.3 \times 10^7)(7) = \frac{(9\times 10^9)q^2}{(24\times 10^3)^2}

now we have

q_1 = q_2 = 5312.6 C
