A charge Q is uniformly spread over one surface of a very large nonconducting square elastic sheet having sides of length d. At

a point P that is 1.25 cm outside the sheet, the magnitude of the electric field due to the sheet is E. If the sheet is now stretched so that its sides have length 2 d, what is the magnitude of the electric field at P

The electric field of a very large (essentially infinitely large) plane of charge is given by:

E = σ/(2ε₀)

E is the electric field, σ is the surface charge density, and ε₀ is the electric constant.

To determine σ:

σ = Q/A

Where Q is the total charge of the sheet and A is the sheet's area. The sheet is a square with a side length d, so A = d²:

σ = Q/d²

Make this substitution in the equation for E:

E = Q/(2ε₀d²)

We see that E is inversely proportional to the square of d:

E ∝ 1/d²

The electric field at P has some magnitude E. Now we double the side length of the sheet while keeping the same amount of charge Q distributed over the sheet. By the relationship of E with d, the electric field at P must now have a quarter of its original magnitude:

E_{new} = E/4

What is the magnitude of the gravitational force of attraction between two 0.425-kilogram soccer balls when the distance between
Lapatulllka [165]

<u>Answer</u>

4.8212×10⁻¹¹ N


<u>Explanation</u>

The gravitational force F, between 2 masses m₁ and m₂ is given by:

F = (Gm₁m₂)/d²

Where G =  6.673 x 10⁻¹¹ N m²/kg² and d is the distance between the 2 masses.

F = (Gm₁m₂)/d²

   =  (6.673 x 10⁻¹¹ × 0.425 × 0.425)/0.500²

   = 1.2053×10⁻¹¹/0.25

   = 4.8212×10⁻¹¹ N

If you add 1 proton to Carbon, it will no longer be Carbon, it will be ________________.
Whitepunk [10]

Nitrogen

Explanation:

Adding one proton to a carbon atom makes Nitrogen.

A quick introspection on atoms:

  • An atom is made up of three fundamental particles.
  • They are protons, neutrons and electrons.
  • The protons are positively charged and the neutrons do not carry any charges.
  • Electrons are negatively charged.

The difference between an atom and another is the number of protons in them. This is the atomic number.

The periodic table of element is a list of elements arranged based on the number of protons they have. Every element on the table has unique number of protons which makes it differ from another.

  • Atoms do not readily lose their protons because they are held by nuclear forces in the nucleus of an atom.

When an element gains a proton, it becomes another element.

    Carbon has proton number of 6

 If a proton is added to it, it becomes 7

This is the proton or atomic number of nitrogen.

Which type of reaction does this diagram represent?
Ugo [173]

The diagram represents a chain reaction that is caused by nuclear fission.

<h3>What is a nuclear fission reaction?</h3>

A nuclear fission reaction is a reaction in which the nucleus of a larger atom is split into two or more smaller nucleus of atoms.

Nuclear fission can proceed in the form of a chain reaction in which the products of the first fission reaction are used to initiate further fission reactions.

Therefore, the diagram represents a chain reaction that is caused by nuclear fission.
