Answer:

a. E = 122.4 N/C

b. E = 58.2 N/C

c. E = 0

Explanation:

The electric field at an arbitrary point away from the axis of the cylinder can found by applying Gauss’ Law, which states that an electric flux through a closed surface is equal to the total charge enclosed by this surface divided by electric permittivity.

In order to apply this law, we have to draw an imaginary cylindrical surface of arbitrary height ‘h’ and radius ‘r’, which is equal to the point where the E-field is asked.

A. For the outside of the cylinder, we will draw our imaginary surface with r = 1.97.

E2\pi rh = \frac{\lambda V}{\epsilon_0} = \frac{\lambda \pi (b^2 - a^2)h}{\epsilon_0}\\E2\pi (1.97)h = \frac{(5.3\times 10^{-9})\pi(1.67^2 - 1.41^2)h}{\epsilon_0}\\E = 122.4~N/C

B. This time our imaginary surface should be inside the cylinder, therefore the enclosed charge will be less than that of part A.

E2\pi rh = \frac{\lambda V_{enc}}{\epsilon_0} = \frac{\lambda \pi (r^2 - a^2}h{\epsilon_0}\\E2\pi (1.51)h = \frac{5.3\times 10^{-9})\pi(1.51^2 - 1.41^2)h}{\epsilon_0}\\E = 58.2~N/C

C. In this case our imaginary surface will be inside the cylinder, where there is no charge at all. Therefore, the enclosed charge will be zero and the electric field will be zero.

What is the connection between the liver (organ), UV radiation (sunlight), and bone tissue
Digiron [165]
The answer to this question would be: vitamin D

The UV is needed by the skin to make previtamin D3. Previtamin D3 or cholecalciferol made from the skin will be changed in the liver into 25- hydroxyvitamin D3 and then sent to the kidney to be changed into 1,25- dihydroxyvitamin D3. The last change in the kidney will active the vitamin D. Vitamin D has a role in the calcium absorption which was will strengthen the bone tissue.

The fire alarm goes off, and a 75 kg firefighter slides down a pole with a constant acceleration of a = 6 m/s square. What is th
Alex17521 [72]

Answer:

450N

Explanation:

Given data

Mass m= 75kg

Acceleration= 6m/s^2

From the Newtons first law, F=ma

substitute

F=75*6

F= 450N

Hence the force is 450N
