Two large, parallel, nonconducting sheets of positive charge face each other. What is at points (a) to the left of the sheets, (

b) between them, and (c) to the right of the sheets? Assume the same surface charge density for each sheet. The separation of the sheets is much less than their dimensions. Do not consider points near the edges of the sheets. (Hint: at any point is the vector sum of the separate electric fields set up by each sheet.)

Answer:

a)The electric Field will be zero at the point between the sheets

b)E_1=\dfrac{\sigma}{\epsilon_0}

c)E_2=\dfrac{\sigma}{\epsilon_0}

Explanation:

Let \sigma be the surface charge density of the of the non conducting parallel sheet.Let consider a Gaussian surface in the form of of cylinder such that its cross-sectional is A . Then there will be flux only due to cross sectional area as the curved sectional is perpendicular to the the electric field  so the Electric Flux due to it is zero.

Now using Gauss law we have, E be the electric Field at the distance r from the sheet then

E\times 2A=\dfrac{\sigma A}{\epsilon_0}\\E=\dfrac{\sigma}{2\epsilon_0}

The Field will be away from the sheet and perpendicular to it.

a) The Electric Field between them

E_1=\dfrac{\sigma}{2\epsilon_0}-\dfrac{\sigma}{2\epsilon_0}\\=0

b)The Electric Field to the right of the sheets

E_1=\dfrac{\sigma}{2\epsilon_0}+\dfrac{\sigma}{2\epsilon_0}\\=\dfrac{\sigma}{\epsilon_0}

c)The Electric Field to the left of the sheets

E_2=\dfrac{\sigma}{2\epsilon_0}+\dfrac{\sigma}{2\epsilon_0}\\=\dfrac{\sigma}{\epsilon_0}

Water moves through a constricted pipe in steady, ideal flow. At the
Irina-Kira [14]

A) Speed in the lower section: 0.638 m/s

B) Speed in the higher section: 2.55 m/s

C) Volume flow rate: 1.8\cdot 10^{-3} m^3/s

Explanation:

A)

To solve the problem, we can use Bernoulli's equation, which states that

p_1 + \rho g h_1 + \frac{1}{2}\rho v_1^2 = p_2 + \rho g h_2 + \frac{1}{2}\rho v_2^2

where

p_1=1.75\cdot 10^4 Pa is the pressure in the lower section of the tube

h_1 = 0 is the heigth of the lower section

\rho=1000 kg/m^3 is the density of water

g=9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration of gravity

v_1 is the speed of the water in the lower pipe

p_2 is the pressure in the higher section

h_2 = 0.250 m is the height in the higher pipe

v_2 is hte speed in the higher section

We can re-write the equation as

v_1^2-v_2^2=\frac{2(p_2-p_1)+\rho g h_2}{\rho} (1)

Also we can use the continuity equation, which state that the volume flow rate is constant:

A_1 v_1 = A_2 v_2

where

A_1 = \pi r_1^2 is the cross-section of the lower pipe, with

r_1 = 3.00 cm =0.03 m is the radius of the lower pipe (half the diameter)

A_2 = \pi r_2^2 is the cross-section of the higher pipe, with

r_2 = 1.50 cm = 0.015 m (radius of the higher pipe)

So we get

r_1^2 v_1 = r_2^2 v_2

And so

v_2 = \frac{r_1^2}{r_2^2}v_1 (2)

Substituting into (1), we find the speed in the lower section:

v_1^2-(\frac{r_1^2}{r_2^2})^2v_1^2=\frac{2(p_2-p_1)+\rho g h_2}{\rho}\\v_1=\sqrt{\frac{2(p_2-p_1+\rho g h_2)}{\rho(1-\frac{r_1^4}{r_2^4})}}=0.638 m/s

B)

Now we can use equation (2) to find the speed in the lower section:

v_2 = \frac{r_1^2}{r_2^2}v_1

Substituting

v1 = 0.775 m/s

And the values of the radii, we find:

v_2=\frac{0.03^2}{0.015^2}(0.638)=2.55 m/s

C)

The volume flow rate of the water passing through the pipe is given by

V=Av

where

A is the cross-sectional area

v is the speed of the water

We can take any point along the pipe since the volume  flow rate is constant, so

r_1=0.03 cm

v_1=0.638 m/s

Therefore, the volume flow rate is

V=\pi r_1^2 v_1 = \pi (0.03)^2 (0.638)=1.8\cdot 10^{-3} m^3/s

How does the force of gravity between two bodies change when the distance between them doubles?
polet [3.4K]

Answer:

If the distance is doubled, the force of gravity between the two bodies is one-fourth as strong as before

Explanation:

The force of gravity between two bodies depends on the mass and distance. But we will focus on distance since that's what the question asks

Therefore, the force of gravity decreases as distance between the bodies increases.

base your answer to this question on the information below and on your knowledge of physics. A toy launcher that is used to laun
Nadya [2.5K]

Answer: v = 2.24 m/s

Explanation: The <u>Law</u> <u>of</u> <u>Conservation</u> <u>of</u> <u>Energy</u> states that total energy is constant in any process and, it cannot be created nor destroyed, only transformed.

So, in the toy launcher, the energy of the compressed spring, called <u>Elastic</u> <u>Potential</u> <u>Energy (PE)</u>, transforms into the movement of the plastic sphere, called <u>Kinetic</u> <u>Energy (KE)</u>. Since total energy must be constant:

KE_{i}+PE_{i}=KE_{f}+PE_{f}

where the terms with subscript i are related to the initial of the process and the terms with subscript f relates to the final process.

The equation is calculated as:

\frac{1}{2}kx^{2}+0=0+\frac{1}{2}mv^{2}

\frac{1}{2}kx^{2}=\frac{1}{2}mv^{2}

\frac{1}{2}50(0.1)^{2}=\frac{1}{2}(0.1)v^{2}

v^{2}=\frac{50(0.1)^{2}}{0.1}

v=\sqrt{50(0.1)}

v=\sqrt{5}

v = 2.24

The maximum speed the plastic sphere will be launched is 2.24 m/s.
