What is the magnitude of the electric field in a region where the potential is given by the expression V = ax2 + b where a = −50

0 V/m2 and b = 135 V? (Substitute numerical values, and express your answer in terms of x. Assume SI units, but do not include units in your answer.)

<h2>Answer:</h2>

The equation of the electric field (E) is given by;

E = -1000x

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

The electric field (E) is the gradient of the potential difference (V) in the direction of x between two points. i.e

E = \frac{dV}{dx}           ----------------------(i)

From the question;

V = ax² + b            ---------------(ii)

Find the gradient of equation (ii) by taking derivative of both sides with respect to x as follows;

\frac{dV}{dx} = \frac{d(ax^{2} + b)}{dx}

\frac{dV}{dx} = 2ax               ----------------------(iii)

Substitute \frac{dV}{dx} = 2ax into equation (i) as follows;

E = 2ax                --------------------------(iv)

Now, substitute the value of a = -500 into equation (iv) as follows;

E = 2(-500)x

E = -1000x

Therefore, the equation of the electric field (E) is given by;

E = -1000x

Answer:

E = 1000 x

Explanation:

The electric potential and the electric field are related by the formula

        dV = - E . dx

Bold represents vectors.

The point represents the scalar product, in this case we calculate the electric field in the x-axis and the potential is also in this axis so the scalar product is reduced to the algebraic product

        E = dV /dx

Let's make the derivative

        E = - 2ax

Let's replace the values

        E = -2 (-500) x

        E = 1000 x

How are density and pressure related related to each other?
lawyer [7]

Answer:

The pressure is the measure of force acting on a unit area. Density is the measure of how closely any given entity is packed, or it is the ratio of the mass of the entity to its volume. The relation between pressure and density is direct. Change in pressure will be reflected in a change in density

A skydiver jumps from an airplane and falls freely for 5 seconds. If the sky diver's velocity increases by 49 m/s during that ti
Sergeeva-Olga [200]

Acceleration  =  (change in speed)  /  (time for the change)

                       =      (49 m/s)   /   (5 seconds)

                       =       (49 / 5)  m/s  /  s

                       =            9.8 m/s²

As a woman walks, her entire weight is momentarily placed on one heel of her high-heeled shoes. Calculate the pressure exerted o
STatiana [176]

Answer:

3335400 N/m² or 483.75889 lb/in²

Explanation:

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

A = Area = 1.5 cm²

m = Mass of woman = 51 kg

F = Force = mg

When we divide force by area we get pressure

P=\frac{F}{A}\\\Rightarrow P=\frac{mg}{A}\\\Rightarrow P=\frac{51\times 9.81}{1.5\times 10^{-4}}\\\Rightarrow P=3335400\ N/m^2

1\ N/m^2=\frac{1}{6894.757}\ lb/in^2

3335400\ N/m^2=3335400\times \frac{1}{6894.757}\ lb/in^2=483.75889\ lb/in^2

The pressure exerted on the floor is 3335400 N/m² or 483.75889 lb/in²
