A uniformly charged rod (length = 2.0 m, charge per unit length = 3.0 nc/m) is bent to form a semicircle. What is the magnitude

of the electric field at the center of the circle?

Answer:

84.82N/C.

Explanation:

The x-components of the electric field cancel; therefore, we only care about the y-components.

The y-component of the differential electric field at the center is

$dE = \frac{kdQ }{R^2} sin(\theta )$.

Now, let us call \lambda the charge per unit length, then we know that

dQ = \lambda Rd\theta;

therefore,

$dE = \frac{k \lambda R d\theta }{R^2} sin(\theta )$

$dE = \frac{k \lambda  d\theta }{R} sin(\theta )$

Integrating

$E = \frac{k \lambda   }{R}\int_0^\pi sin(\theta )d\theta$

$E = \frac{k \lambda   }{R}*[-cos(\pi )+cos(0) ]$

$E = \frac{2k \lambda   }{R}.$

Now, we know that

\lambda = 3.0*10^{-9}C/m,

k = 9*10^9kg\cdot m^3\cdot s^{-4}\cdot A^{-2},

and the radius of the semicircle is

\pi R = 2.0m,\\\\R = \dfrac{2.0m}{\pi };

therefore,

$E = \frac{2(9*10^9) (3.0*10^{-9})   }{\dfrac{2.0}{\pi } }.$

$\boxed{E = 84.82N/C.}$

Butoxors [25]
To separate a mixture of salt and water, you can try first by using filter paper hen with the extra water part set it out to the window so that the salt water evaporates and only the salt is remaining.

Answer:

DMs are not accessible anymore. I assume Zuka is a staff member? the only way to talk to a staff member anymore is to report something, but even then, the probably won't even look at what they're deleting :/

May I have brainliest please? :)

8. A crate of bananas weighing 3000 N is shipped from South America to New York, where it
LiRa [457]

Answer:

Mechanical advantage = 15

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Output force = 3000N

Input force = 200N

To find the mechanical advantage;

Mechanical advantage = output force/input force

Substituting into the equation, we have

Mechanical advantage = 3000/200

Mechanical advantage = 15

Two charged objects, A and B, are exerting an electric force on each other. What will happen if the charge on A is increased?
ozzi

Answer: The forces acting on both of them will increase in magnitude.

Explanation:

According to Coulomb's law, the electrostatic force between two bodies is proportional to the product of their two charges. If the charge on A is increased this product increases in size (it must have been non-zero to begin with, since there was a force between them at first). Thus, the force between them rises.
