Answer:

The weights are 1 kg, 3kg, 9kg and 27kg.

Explanation:

The weights are 1 kg, 3kg, 9kg and 27kg.

1+3+9+27= 40

27+9+3= 39

27+9+3-1=38

27+9+1=37

27+9=36

27+9-1=35

27+9+1-3=34

27+9-3=33

27+9-3-1=32

27+3+1=31

27+3=30

27+3-1=29

27+1=28

27

27-1=26

27+1-3=25

27-3=24

27-3-1=23

27+3+1-9=22

27+3-9=21

27+3-9-1=20

Like this all the weights from 1 to 40 kg can be made using 1,3,9 and 27 kg.

The electric flux through a square-shaped area of side 5 cm near a large charged sheet is found to be 3 × 10−5 N · m2 /C when th
Zanzabum

Answer:

\sigma=2.124\times 10^{-13}C/m^{2}

Explanation:

Given:

Electric Flux = 3\times10^{-5}N.m^2/C

Side of sheet = 5cm

Area of the square sheet, A= 5×5 = 25cm²=25×10⁻⁴ m²

Now

the electric flux (Φ) is given as:

\phi =EA

where, E = Electric field

or

E=\frac{\phi}{A}

substituting the values in the above equation, we get

E=\frac{3\times10^{-5}N.m^2/C}{25\times 10^{-4}}

E=0.012N/C

Now the charge density (σ) on a sheet is given as:

\sigma=2\epsilon_oE

where, \epsilon_o = Permittivity of the free space = 8.85×10⁻¹²

substituting the values in the above equation, we get

\sigma=2\times 8.85\times10^{-12}\times 0.012

\sigma=2.124\times 10^{-13}C/m^{2}

Lady bird [3.3K]

Answer:

The resulting magnetic force on the wire is -1.2kN

Explanation:

The magnetic force on a current carrying wire of length 'L' with current 'I' in a magnetic field B is

F = I (L*B)

Finding (L * B) , where L = (2, 0, 0)m , B = (30, -40, 0)

L x B = \left[\begin{array}{ccc}i&j&k\\2&0&0\\30&-40&0\end{array}\right] = (0, 0, -80)

we can now solve

F = I (L x B) = I (-80)

F = -1200 kmN

F = -1200 kN * 10⁻³

F = -1.2kN
