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

Overtime, a household freezer will develop a layer of ice that coats the inside an grows thicker over time. Describe what happen
shutvik [7]
The moisture in the freezer will freeze due to the cold temperature, and form a layer of ice (the water molecules expand and solidify). Each time the freezer is opened, the moisture that enters via the air will freeze and form a layer of ice on top of the previous layer, causing the ice to grow thicker over time.

Voltage, measured in volts (V), is a measure of how much energy is given to the moving electrons in a circuit. Another way of thinking of voltage is by analogy with the pressure that pushes water through the pipes in a house.

Urgent please help me
Verizon [17]

1433 km

Explanation:

Let g' = the gravitational field strength at an altitude h

g' = G\dfrac{M_E}{(R_E + h)^2}

We also know that g at the earth's surface is

g = G\dfrac{M_E}{R_E^2}

Since g' = (2/3)g, we can write

G\dfrac{M_E}{(R_E + h)^2} = \dfrac{2}{3}\left(G\dfrac{M_E}{R_E^2} \right)

Simplifying the above expression by cancelling out common factors, we get

(R_E + h)^2 = \dfrac{3}{2} R_E^2

Taking the square root of both sides, this becomes

R_E + h = \left(\!\sqrt{\dfrac{3}{2}}\right) R_E

Solving for h, we get

h = \left(\!\sqrt{\dfrac{3}{2}} - 1\right) R_E= 0.225(6.371×10^2\:\text{km})

\:\:\:\:\:= 1433\:\text{km}

Complete Question:

In the same configuration of the previous problem 3, four long straight wires are perpendicular to the page, and their cross sections form a square of edge length a = 13.5 cm. Each wire carries 7.50 A, and the currents are out of the page in wires 1 and 4 and into the page in wires 2 and 3.

a) Draw a diagram in a (x,y) plane of the four wires with wire 4 perpendicular to the origin. Indicate the current's directions.

b) Draw a diagram of all magnetic fields produced at the position of wire 3 by the other three currents.

c) Draw a diagram of all magnetic forces produced at the position of wire 3 by the other three currents.

d) What are magnitude and direction of the net magnetic force per meter of wire length on wire 3?
