Answer:
electricfield at (0,0,0) is Et = 2 k q / a²
Explanation:
For the first part see the diagram , the field lines start from the positive charge and reach the negative charge, notice that no line should cross, some lines go to infinity
For the second part we use that the electric field is a vector quantity and therefore we add the field of each charge, using the equation
E = k q / r²
Point (0,0,0)
We calculate for the charge -q which is at a distance R = a
E1 = k (-q) / a²
E1 = - kq / a²
As the test charge is positive in the field it goes to the left, attractive force
We calculate for the charge that is also at R = a
E2 = k q / a²
This field goes to the left, repulsive force
We find the total electric field
Et = E1 + E2
Et = kq / a² + kq / a²
Et = 2 k q / a²
Point (0,0, R)
We use the same equations, but with another distance, for the charge -q the distance is R = R+a and for the charge + q the distance is R = R-a
E1 = k q / (R + a)²
E2 = kq / (R-a)²
Et = kq [1 / (R + a)² + 1 / (R-a)²]
Et= kq {[(R-a)² + (R + a)²] / [(R + a)² (R-a)²]}
Et= kq {2 (R² + a²) / [(R + a)² (R-a)²]}
If we use the condition that R> a we can despise in the patents "a"
(R² + a²) = R² (1+ a² / R²) ≈ R²
(R + a)² = R² (1 + a / R)² ≈ R²
(R- a)² = R² (1-a / R)² ≈ R²
Substituting in the total electric field
Et = kq {2 R²) / [R²R²]}
Et =kq 2 / R²
Answer:
A. True
Explanation:
When a stone is thrown straight-up, it has an initial velocity which decreases gradually as the stone move to maximum height due to constant acceleration due to gravity acting downward on the stone, at the maximum height the final velocity of the stone is zero. As the stone descends the velocity starts to increase and becomes maximum before it hits the ground.
Height of the motion is given by;
g is acceleration due to gravity which is constant
H is height traveled
u is the speed of throw, which determines the value of height traveled.
Therefore, when the stone is caught at the same height from which it was thrown in the absence of air resistance, the speed of the stone when thrown will be equal to the speed when caught.
