An infinite line of charge with charge density λ1 = 0.6 μC/cm is aligned with the y-axis.

Answer:

1440 × 10⁴ N/C

Explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Charge density λ1 = 0.6 μC/cm = 6 × 10⁻⁵ C/m

a = 7.5 cm = 0.075 m

Now,

Electric field due to a line charge at a distance 'a' is given as:

Ex(P) = \frac{\lambda}{2\pi\epsilon_0a}

also,

we know

\frac{1}{4\pi\epsilon_0} = 9 × 10⁹ Nm²/C²

Thus,

we have

Ex(P) = \frac{2}{2}\times\frac{\lambda}{2\pi\epsilon_0a}=\frac{2\lambda}{4\pi\epsilon_0a}

therefore,

Ex(P) = \frac{2\times6\times10^{-5}\times9\times10^9}{0.075}

= 1440 × 10⁴ N/C

What do scientists do to easily share measurement data they can understand?
malfutka [58]
These days, scientists all over the world use a standard system of measurements.  It's the SI or metric system.

What about scientists in the United States, Liberia, and Burma ? 
These three countries are the only ones in the world that haven't
adopted the metric system.  What do THEY do ?

Easy.  When scientists in those countries are off work, they use the
inches, yards, feet, quarts, miles and gallons that everybody around
them is using.  But when they go to work, they use the same metric
system that everyone else in the world is using.

describe the relationship between the direction of the velocity vector and the direction of the acceleration for a body moving i
Xelga [282]

Answer:

a = v²/r

Explanation:

The acceleration of a body moving in a circular path is known as the centripetal acceleration. This is the acceleration of a body that keeps the body within the circular path. It is written in terms of the linear velocity v and the radius of the circle of rotation as shown;

a = v²/r where

v is the linear velocity

r is the radius

a is the centripetal acceleration

While riding in a moving car, you toss an egg directly upward. Does the egg tend to land behind you, in front of you, or back in
bazaltina [42]

Answer:

Explanation:

The movement of a body can be analyzed using New's first law. In an inertial frame (without acceleration) every body is kept at rest or moving at constant speed until there is an external force that changes this state

Let's analyze these cases in the framework of this first law

a) If the vehicle is going at constant speed the two bodies (the egg and the hands) do not change movement so he had returned to the hands

b) If the vehicle accelerates the passenger goes faster, but the egg that is not subject to anything does not change the movement, so it falls behind the passenger

c) If the vehicle slows down, the passenger reduces its speed and the distance traveled in time, but the egg that is not attached follows its movement and falls in front of the passenger.

Answer:   A    Answers. Assuming that the terminal velocity doesn't change during the fall, then the kinetic energy would remain constant. However the terminal velocity decreases during the fall since the air becomes denser at lower altitudes.

Explanation:

What happens to the KE of an object when it slows down and heats up? - Quora. The kinetic energy goes down and the loss of the kinetic energy is through the production of heat energy. In real world this is due to friction, or an opposing force that decelerates the object, or a combination of both.

A force of 20 N is exerted on a box with a mass of 15 kg. if friction exerts a force of 4 N on the box, at what rate does the bo
MakcuM [25]

Answer:

1.06 metres per second squared

Explanation:

since friction acts against foward force

20 N - 4 N = 16 N

use Newtons 2nd law F=ma Solve for a:

a= F÷m

= 16 ÷ 15

= 1.06 metres per second squared
