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

A tank contains gas at 13.0°C pressurized to 10.0 atm. The temperature of the gas is increased to 95.0°C, and half the gas is re
fomenos

Answer:

The pressure of the remaining gas in the tank is 6.4 atm.

Explanation:

Given that,

Temperature T = 13+273=286 K

Pressure = 10.0 atm

We need to calculate the pressure of the remaining gas

Using equation of ideal gas

PV=nRT

For a gas

P_{1}V_{1}=nRT_{1}

Where, P = pressure

V = volume

T = temperature

Put the value in the equation

10\times V=nR\times286....(I)

When the temperature of the gas is increased

Then,

P_{2}V_{2}=\dfrac{n}{2}RT_{2}....(II)

Divided equation (I) by equation (II)

\dfrac{P_{1}V}{P_{2}V}=\dfrac{nRT_{1}}{\dfrac{n}{2}RT_{2}}

\dfrac{10\times V}{P_{2}V}=\dfrac{nR\times286}{\dfrac{n}{2}R368}

P_{2}=\dfrac{10\times368}{2\times286}

P_{2}= 6.433\ atm

P_{2}=6.4\ atm

Hence, The pressure of the remaining gas in the tank is 6.4 atm.

Which wavelength would scientists use to measure the molecular structure of H2O?
Ne4ueva [31]

Answer:

To find out what water is made of, it helps to look at its chemical formula, which is H2O. This basically tells us that the water molecule is composed of two elements: hydrogen and oxygen or, more precisely, two hydrogen atoms (H2) and one oxygen atom (O).
