Answer/ Explanation

the loop has no force and the wires cancel each other but the wire on the loop has a force

The segment a get the same force for both but in the loop segment b get an opposite force so the net force on the loop is smaller

The loop wire has forces that all cancel out while the other straight wire doesn't.

Goshia [24]

Answer:

(a) σ = 3.41*10⁻7C/m^2

(b) E = 38,530.1 N/C

Explanation:

(a) In order to calculate the resulting surface charge density, you use the following formula:

\sigma=\frac{Q}{S}     (1)

σ: surface charge density

Q: charge of the satellite = 3.1 µC = 3.1*10^-6C

S: surface area of the satellite

The satellite has a spherical form, then, the area of the surface is given by:

S=4\pi r^2     (2)

r: radius of the satellite = d/2 = 1.7m/2 = 0.85m

You replace the equation (2) into the equation (1) and solve for the surface charge density:

\sigma=\frac{3.1*10^{-6}C}{4\pi (0.85m)^2}=3.41*10^{-7}\frac{C}{m^2}

The surface charge density acquired by the satellite on one orbit is 3.41*10⁻7C/m^2

(b) The electric field just outside the surface is calculate d by using the following formula:

E=k\frac{Q}{R^2}      (3)

k: Coulomb's constant = 8.98*10^9 Nm^2/C^2

R: radius of the satellite = 0.85m

E=(8.98*10^9Nm^2/C^2)\frac{3.1*10^{-6}C}{(0.85m)^2}=38530.1\frac{N}{C}

The magnitude of the electric field just outside the sphere is 38,530.1 N/C

A container is filled with water to a depth of 26.2 cm. On top of the water floats a 16.1 cm thick layer of oil with a density of
Solnce55 [7]

Answer:

1.34 x 10^3 Pa

Explanation:

density of oil = 0.85 x 10^3 kg/m^3

g = 9.81 m/s^2

height of oil column = 16.1 cm = 0.161 m

Pressure on the surface of water = height of oil column x density of oil x g

                                                      = 0.161 x 0.85 x 10^3 x 9.81 = 1.34 x 10^3 Pa

Thus, the pressure on the surface of water is 1.34 x 10^3 Pa.

A 150kg person stands on a compression spring with spring constant 10000n/m and nominal length of 0.50.what is the total length
Ivahew [28]

Answer:

<em>The total length of the spring would be 0.65 m</em>

Explanation:

The Concept

Hooke's law evaluates the increment of  spring in relation to the force acting on the body. Hooke's law states that for a spring undergoing deformation, the  force applied is directly proportional to the deformation experienced by the spring. Hooke's law is represented thus;

F = k x ..................1

where F is the force applied to the spring

k is the spring constant

x is the spring stretch or extension

Step by Step Calculations

We have to obtain x before adding it to the nominal length, We make x the subject formula in equation 1;

x = F/k

but F = m x g

so, x = (m x g)/k

given that, the mass of the person m =150 kg

g is the acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s^{2}

k is the spring constant = 10000 N/m

then x = (9.81 m/s^{2} x 150 kg)/10000 N/m

x = 0.14715 m

the extension experienced by the spring after the compression is 0.14715 m

The total length of the spring would be;

L = 0.14715 m + 0.5 m = 0.64715

L ≈  0.65 m

Therefore the total length of the spring would be 0.65 m
