An electric field is = (400 N/C) for x > 0 and = (–400 N/C) for x < 0. A cylinder of length 30 cm and radius 10 cm has its

center at the origin and its axis along the x axis such that one end is at x = +15 cm and the other is at x = –15 cm. What is the net outward flux through the entire cylindrical surface?

Answer:

0 Nm²/C

Explanation:

We calculate the total flux Ф = ∫E.dA for -15 < x < 0 and 0 < x < 15

which is the flux through the curved sides + the flux through its ends.

So, Ф₁ = ∫₋₁₅⁰E.dA + ∫₀¹⁵E.dA this is the flux through the curved sides of the cylinder

Ф₁ = ∫₋₁₅⁰EdAcos0 + ∫₀¹⁵EdAcos0 (since the area is parallel to the electric field)

Ф₁ = ∫₋₁₅⁰EdA + ∫₀¹⁵EdA  

Ф₁ = E∫₋₁₅⁰dA + E∫₀¹⁵dA

= E∫₋₁₅⁰2πrdx + E∫₀¹⁵2πrdx

= E2πr∫₋₁₅⁰dx + E2πr∫₀¹⁵dx

= E2πr[x]₋₁₅⁰ + E2πr[x]¹⁵₀

= E2πr[0 -(-15)] + E2πr[15 - 0]

= (-400 N/C)2πr[15]  + (+400 N/C)2πr[15]

= -800 N/Cπ(0.30 m )[0.15 m]  + 800 N/Cπ(0.30 m)[0.15]

= (-36επ  + 36επ)  Nm²/C = 0

the flux through the ends is

Ф₂ = ∫₋₁₅⁰E.dA + ∫₀¹⁵E.dA

= ∫₋₁₅⁰EdAcos0 + ∫₀¹⁵EdAcos0 (since the area is parallel to the electric field)

= ∫₋₁₅⁰EdA + ∫₀¹⁵EdA

= E∫₋₁₅⁰dA + E∫₀¹⁵dA

= (-400 N/C)πr² + (400 N/C)πr²

= 0

So, the total flux equals Ф = Ф₁ + Ф₂ = 0 + 0 = 0 Nm²/C

A solid object has a mass of 104 kg and a volume of 1,278 m3. What is its density? 0.081 kg/m3 12.29 g/cm3 132912.00 g/cm3 canno
REY [17]
The density is 81.4 g/m3. Before you start plugging numbers into the density formula (D=M/V), you should convert 104 kg to grams, which ends up being 104,000 grams. Then you can plug in the 104,000 grams and 1,278 m3 into the formula. When you divide the mass by the volume, you get a really long decimal, which you can round to 81.4 g/m3, or whatever place your teacher wants you to round to.

How are mass, distance and gpe related
Gelneren [198K]

Answer:

It is direct proportionality. The greater the mass, the greater is the gravitational potential energy. The equation for GPE is : GPE = mgh, where m is the mass, g is the acceleration due to gravity, and h is the height above the ground. As you can see GPE is directly proportional to mass, and height. KT.

Explanation:

Gravitational potential energy is a function of both the mass of your system and the mass of the thing generating the gravity field around your system.

The relationship is linear, which means that if you multiply or divide one of the masses by some number but leave everything else the same, you multiply or divide the potential energy by the same number. A 3kg mass has three times the gravitation potential energy of a 1kg mass, if placed in the same location.

Carbon-14 has a half-life of 5,700 years. How long will it take for 6.25% of the Carbon-14 to be remaining?
IRISSAK [1]

Answer:

22,800 years

Explanation:

Half life equation:

A = A₀ (½)^(t / T)

where A is the final amount,

A₀ is the initial amount,

t is time,

and T is the half life.

0.0625 = (½)^(t / 5700)

log 0.0625 = (t / 5700) log 0.5

4 = t / 5700

t = 22,800

It takes 22,800 years.

The International Space Station has a mass of 1.8 × 105 kg. A 70.0-kg astronaut inside the station pushes off one wall of the st
Aleonysh [2.5K]

Answer:

a = 5.83 \times 10^{-4} m/s^2

Explanation:

Since the system is in international space station

so here we can say that net force on the system is zero here

so Force by the astronaut on the space station = Force due to space station on boy

so here we know that

mass of boy = 70 kg

acceleration of boy = 1.50 m/s^2

now we know that

F = ma

F = 70(1.50) = 105 N

now for the space station will be same as above force

F = ma

105 = 1.8 \times 10^5 (a)

a = \frac{105}{1.8 \times 10^5}

a = 5.83 \times 10^{-4} m/s^2
