Answer:

(a) F = 0.00322i - 0.00793j with magnitude |F| = 0.00856N

(b) E = -42846.7 N/C

Explanation:

The diagram attached below explains some parameters.

Parameters given:

Charge Q1 = +50 nC at point (0, 0)

Charge Q2 = -50 nC at point (0.1, 0)

Charge Q3 = +150 nC at point (0.1, 0.08)

* The distances are in meters.

(a) The total electric force on the charge Q3 due to Q1 and Q2 is the vector sum of the forces due to Q1 and Q2. Mathematically,

F = F1 + F2

FORCE DUE TO Q1 i.e. F(Q1, Q3)

We have to find the x and y components.

From the diagram, we can find θ using SOHCAHTOA:

θ = tan⁻¹ (0.08/0.1)

θ = 38.66⁰

The distance between Q1 and Q3 can be found using Pythagoras theorem:

x² = 0.08² + 0.1²

x = 0.128 m

F1 = Fx(Q1, Q3)i + Fy(Q1, Q3)j

F1 = iF(Q1, Q3)cosθ + jF(Q1, Q3)sinθ

F(Q1, Q3) = (k * Q1 * Q3) / r²

k = Coulombs constant

F(Q1, Q3) = (9 * 10⁹ * 50 * 10⁻⁹ * 150 * 10⁻⁹) /(0.128)²

F(Q1, Q3) = 0.00412N

F1 = i0.00412 * cos38.66 + j0. 00412 * sin38.66

F1 = 0.00322i + 0.00257j N

FORCE DUE TO Q2 i.e. F(Q2, Q3)

We have to find the x and y components.

F2 = Fx(Q2, Q3)i + Fy(Q2, Q3)j

F2 = iF(Q2, Q3)cos90 + jF(Q2, Q3)cos0

F(Q2, Q3) = (k * Q2 * Q3) / r²

F(Q2, Q3) = (9 * 10⁹ * -50 * 10⁻⁹ * 150 * 10⁻⁹) /(0.08)²

F(Q2, Q3) = -0.0105N

F2 = -i0.0105 * cos90 - j0.0105 * cos0

F2 = - 0.0105j N

Hence, the total force will be

F = F1 + F2

F = 0.00322i + 0.00257j - 0.0105j

F = 0.00322i - 0.00793j N

The magnitude of this force is:

|F| = √(0.00322² + (-0.00793²)

|F| = 0.00856N

(b) The electric field at charge Q3 is the sum of the electric fields due to Q1 and Q2:

E = E1 + E2

E1, electric field due to Q1 = kQ1/r²

E1 = (9 * 10⁹ * 50 * 10⁻⁹) / (0.128²)

E1 = 27465.8 N/C

E2, electric field due to Q2 = (9 * 10⁹ * -50 * 10⁻⁹) / (0.08²)

E1 = -70312.5N/C

The total electric field:

E = E1 + E2

E = 27465.8 - 70312.5

E = -42846.7 N/C

pickupchik [31]

Answer:

A. Technician A only.B.

Explanation: The fuel system of a vehicle is made up of the fuel pump,the fuel filter,the injector or carburettor and the fuel tank. The main function of the fuel system is supply fuel to the engine of a vehicle. In order to check for leakage in the fuel system a small pressure smoke is usually installed in the fuel system.

Nitrogen at low pressure has also been used to check for leakage in the fuel system of a vehicle.

For a series circuit what is the terminal voltage of a battery or power supply equal to in terms of the potential difference or
trapecia [35]

Answer: V=IR

Explanation: for a series circuit connected to a battery supply, the total emf across the circuit is given as

E = I(R + r) and by expanding, we have that E =IR + It

Where r is the internal resistance of the battery

I is the total current flowing in the circuit

R total load resistance in the circuit.

E is the total emf of the circuit.

The total emf is the sum of 2 separate voltages.

"IR" which is the terminal voltage and "Ir" which is the loss voltage.

The teenila voltage is the voltage flowing in the circuit based on the equivalent resistance of the circuit while the loss voltage is the wasted voltage based on the internal resistance of the battery source.

Given that ethylene has a λmax of 175nm, butadiene has a λmax of 220nm, and 2-methyl-1,3-butadiene has a λmax or 215nm, what is
Vika [28.1K]

The λmax of 2,3,4-trimethylhexatriene is 280 nm.

Ethylene has a λmax of 175nm.

Butadiene has a λmax of 220nm.

2-methyl-1,3-butadiene has a λmax or 215nm.

1,3,5-hexatriene has a λmax of 258nm.

Woodward's rules, sometimes known as Woodward-Fieser rules (after Louis Fieser) and named after Robert Burns Woodward, are a number of sets of empirically developed principles that aim to forecast the wavelength of the absorption maximum (max) in an ultraviolet-visible spectrum of a certain molecule.

By using the Woodward Fieser rule,

R- (Alkyl Group) .... +5 nm = 5 × 2 = 10

RO- (Alkoxy Group) .. +6 = 6 × 2 = 12

Adding 22nm to the λmax of 1,3,5-hexatriene as it has 2 alkyl groups and 2 alkoxy groups to form 2,3,4-trimethylhexatriene.

The λmax of 2,3,4-trimethylhexatriene is 280 nm.

Crank

Answer:

The photoelectric effect occurs only for frequencies above the cutoff frequency, regardless of the intensity.

Explanation:

The photoelectric effect occurs when light is shined on metals such as zinc beyond a certain frequency (the threshold frequency), which causes electrons to escape from the zinc. The electrons which are fleeing are called photo electrons.

Therefore photo electric effect is

The photoelectric effect occurs only for frequencies above the cutoff frequency, regardless of the intensity.
