Consider a semi-infinite (hollow) cylinder of radius R with uniform surface charge density. Find the electric field at a point o

VikaD [51]

Answer:

For the point inside the cylinder: $E = \frac{\sigma R}{2\epsilon_0}\frac{1}{\sqrt{R^2 + 4x_0^2}}$

For the point outside the cylinder: $E = \frac{\sigma R}{2\epsilon_0}\frac{1}{\sqrt{R^2 + x_0^2}}$

where x0 is the position of the point on the x-axis and σ is the surface charge density.

Explanation:

Let us assume that the finite end of the cylinder is positioned at the origin. And the rest of the cylinder lies on the (-x) axis, which is the vertical axis in this question. In the first case (inside the cylinder) we will calculate the electric field at an arbitrary point -x0. In the second case (outside), the point will be +x0.

The cylinder is consist of the sum of the rings with the same radius.

First we will calculate the electric field at point -x0 created by the ring at an arbitrary point x.

We will also separate the ring into infinitesimal portions of length 'ds' where ds = Rdθ.

The charge of the portion 'ds' is 'dq' where dq = σds = σRdθ. σ is the surface charge density.

Now, the electric field created by the small portion is 'dE'.

$dE = \frac{1}{4\pi\epsilon_0}\frac{\sigma Rd\theta}{R^2+x^2}$

The electric field is a vector, and it needs to be separated into its components in order us to integrate it. But, the sum of horizontal components is zero due to symmetry. Every dE has an equal but opposite counterpart which cancels it out. So, we only need to take the component with the sine term.

$dE = \frac{1}{4\pi\epsilon_0}\frac{\sigma Rd\theta}{R^2+x^2} \frac{x}{\sqrt{x^2+R^2}} = dE = \frac{1}{4\pi\epsilon_0}\frac{\sigma Rxd\theta}{(R^2+x^2)^{3/2}}$

We have to integrate it over the ring, which is an angular integration.

$E_{ring} = \int{dE} = \frac{1}{4\pi\epsilon_0}\frac{\sigma Rx}{(R^2+x^2)^{3/2}}\int\limits^{2\pi}_0 {} \, d\theta = \frac{1}{4\pi\epsilon_0}\frac{\sigma Rx}{(R^2+x^2)^{3/2}}2\pi = \frac{1}{2\epsilon_0}\frac{\sigma Rx}{(R^2+x^2)^{3/2}}$

This is the electric field created by a ring a distance x away from the point -x0. Now we can integrate this electric field over the semi-infinite cylinder to find the total E-field:

$E_{cylinder} = \int{E_{ring}} = \frac{\sigma R}{2\epsilon_0}\int\limits^{-\inf}_{-2x_0} \frac{x}{(R^2+x^2)^{3/2}}dx = \frac{\sigma R}{2\epsilon_0}\frac{1}{\sqrt{R^2 + 4x_0^2}}$

The reason we integrate over -2x0 to -inf is that the rings above -x0 and below to-2x0 cancel out each other. Electric field is created by the rings below -2x0 to -inf.

We will only change the boundaries of the last integration.

$E_{cylinder} = \int{E_{ring}} = \frac{\sigma R}{2\epsilon_0}\int\limits^{-\inf}_{x_0} \frac{x}{(R^2+x^2)^{3/2}}dx = \frac{\sigma R}{2\epsilon_0}\frac{1}{\sqrt{R^2 + x_0^2}}$

A light plane must reach a speed of 33 m/s per take off. How long a runway is needed if the constant acceleration is 3.0 m/s^2.

aleksley [76]

Given the final velocity (Vf) and the acceleration (a), the distance that should be traveled by the plane is calculated through the equation,
d = (Vf² - Vi²) / 2a
V1 should be zero because the light plane started the motion from rest. Substituting the given values,
d = ((33 m/s)² - 0)) / 2(3 m/s²)
The distance is therefore equal to 181.5 meters.

Your bedroom gets direct sunlight through a window during the hottest part of the day. You ask your mom to turn down the thermom

ycow [4]

I want to say its cooled by reflection because of the foil, sun reflects off of the foil back into the atmosphere. I don't think it's conduction because I have the foil on my windows and it's never warm to the touch. it's not a liquid so I don't believe it's convection. The foil reflects the radiation so I don't think it's b, c or d. so I wanna say A but I'm not 100% sure
