What is the electric potential 12 cm away from a charge of –5.2 × 10^–6C?

1 answer:

8 0

The equation for electric potential of a point charge is:

V=(k*q)/r where k=9*10^11 N m²/C², q is the charge and r is the distance from the charge to the point in which we are calculating the potential.

q=-5.2*10^-6 C
r=12 cm = 0.12 m

Now we plug in the numbers and get:

V=-3.9*10^5 Volts, so the correct answer is the second one.

When hydrogen is heated or subjected to an electric discharge, it emits light with specific visible wavelengths. A diffraction g

BartSMP [9]

To solve this problem we will apply the concepts related to the double slit-experiment. For which we will relate the distance between the Slits and the Diffraction Angle with the order of the bright fringe and the wavelength, this is mathematically given as,

$d sin\theta = m\lambda$

Here,

d = Distance between Slits

m = Order of the fringes

$\lambda$ = Wavelength

$\text{Spacing between adjacent lines}$ = $d = 4926nm$

$\text{Wavelength of light} = \lambda = 656nm$

Rearranging to find the angle,

$sin\theta = \frac{m\lambda}{d}$

$\theta = sin^{-1}(\frac{m\lambda}{d})$

$\theta = sin^{-1}(\frac{(4)(656*10^{-9}m)}{4926*10^{-9}m})$

$\theta = 32.19\°$

Therefore the angle that the fourth order bright fringe occur for this specific wavelenth of light occur is 32.19°

A typical laboratory centrifuge rotates at 3700 rpm . Test tubes have to be placed into a centrifuge very carefully because of t

Alexus [3.1K]

Answer:

Explanation:

acceleration of test tube

= ω² R

= (2πn)² R

= 4π²n²R

n = no of rotation per second

= 3700 / 60

= 61.67

R = .10 m

acceleration

= 4π²n²R

= 4 x 3.14² x 61.67² x .10

= 14999 N Approx

How much energy is stored in the electric field of a 50-μm-diameter cell with a 7.0-nm-thick cell wall whose dielectric constant

Nady [450]

:<span> </span><span>Under the assumption that a cell is made up of two concentric spheres you find the surface are of the inside sphere which will be your A.

You already have your separation and dielectric constant so just use the formula you stated towards the end of your question and you get 8.93x10^-11 Farads which is about 89pF</span>
