What will the surface charge density be if the radius of the disk is doubled but its total charge remains the same

Physics
1 answer:
zaharov [31]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

the new surface charge density = Q/4πr²( initial surface charge density divided by 4)

Explanation:

charge density(surface) = Q/A = charge/area

let r be the initial radius of the disk

therefore, area A = πr²

charge density = Q/πr²

Now that the radius is doubled, let it be represented as R

∴ R = 2r

Recall, charge density = Q/A

A = πR = π(2r)² = 4πr²

the new surface charge density = Q/4πr²

the initial surface charge density divided by 4

A new planet is discovered beyond Pluto at a mean distance to the sun of 4004 million miles. Using Kepler's third law, determine
AVprozaik [17]

Answer:

103239.89 days

Explanation:

Kepler's third law states that the square of the orbital period of a planet is directly proportional to the cube of the semi-major axis of its orbit.

                               a³ / T² = 7.496 × 10⁻⁶  (a.u.³/days²)

where,

a is the distance of the semi-major axis in a.u

T is the orbit time in days

Converting the mean distance of the new planet to astronomical unit (a.u.)

                       1 a.u = 9.296 × 10⁷ miles        

                                      \frac{4004 * 10^{6}}{9.296 * 10^{7}}  =  43.07\ a.u.

Substituting the values into Kepler's third law equation;

                                    \frac{(43.07)^{3}}{T^{2}}  =  7.496 * 10^{-6}  

                                    T^{2} = \frac{(43.07)^{3}}{7.496 * 10^{-6}} (days)²

                                    T^{2} = \sqrt{\frac{(43.07)^{3}}{7.496 * 10^{-6}}}

                                    T = 103239.89 days

An estimate time T for the new planet to travel around the sun in an orbit is 103239.89 days

Find the acceleration of a car with a mass of 1,200 kg and a force of 11,000 N.<br> Please help
netineya [11]

Answer:

9.17 m/s^2

Explanation:

Formula for force is given by

F = m*a

where F is the force in newton

m is the mass of body in KG

and

a is the acceleration of body on m/s^2

_______________________________________________

Given

F = 11,000

mass = 1,200 Kg

we have to find value of acceleration

using

F = m*a

11,000 = 1200*a

=> a = 11,000 /1200 = 9.17

Thus, the acceleration of a car is 9.17 meter per second square

Tests reveal that a normal driver takes about 0.75 s before he or she can react to a situation to avoid a collision. It takes ab
nata0808 [166]

To solve this problem we will apply the linear motion kinematic equations. On these equations we will define the speed as the distance traveled in a space of time, and that speed will be in charge of indicating the reaction rate of the individual. In turn, using the ratio of speed, position and acceleration, we will clear the position and determine the distance necessary for braking.

The relation to express the velocity in terms of position for constant acceleration is as follows

v^2 = u^2+2a(s-s_0)

Here,

u = Initial velocity

v= Final velocity

a = Acceleration

s_0 = Initial position

s = Final position

PART 1) Calculate the displacement within the reaction time

d = vt

d = (44)(0.75)

d = 33ft

In this case we can calculate the shortest stopping distance

0^2 = 44^2+2(-2)(s-33)

s = 517ft

PART 2)

PART 1) Calculate the displacement within the reaction time

d = vt

d = (44)(3)

d = 132ft

In this case we can calculate the shortest stopping distance

0^2 = 44^2+2(-2)(s-132)

s = 616ft

While a person without alcohol would cost 517ft to slow down, under alcoholic substances that distance would be 616ft
