please mark brainliest

Explanation:

Let the east direction to be i^ and north direction be j^.

Thus displacement of the man   S=8i^+6j^

So, magnitude of displacement  ∣S∣=62+82=100=10 m

A ruler has a division of 1mm. You use the ruler to measure a piece of paper. You find that it is 7.4 cm wide and 8.3 cm long. W
Anastaziya [24]

Answer:

<h2><em>6,142mm²</em></h2>

Explanation:

Given the dimension of a paper measured by a ruler as 7.4 cm wide and 8.3 cm long, the area of the paper is expressed using the area for calculating the area of a rectangle as shown;

Area of the piece of paper = Length * Width

Given length = 7.4cm

Length = 74mm (Since 10mm = 1cm)

Width = 8.3cm

Width (in mm) = 83mm

We converted to mm since the ruler used to measure has a division of 1mm.

Substituting the given values into the formula, we will have:

Area of the piece of paper = 74mm * 83mm

Area of the piece of paper = 6,142mm²

<em>Hence, the area of the piece of paper is 6,142mm²</em>

two point charges of magnitude 4.0 μc and -4.0 μc are situated along the x-axis at x1 = 2.0 m and x2 = -2.0 m, respectively. wha
user100 [1]

The electric potential at the origin of the xy coordinate system is negative infinity

<h3>What is the electric field due to the 4.0 μC charge?</h3>

The electric field due to the 4.0 μC charge is E = kq/r² where

  • k = electric constant = 9.0 × 10 Nm²/C²,
  • q = 4.0 μC = 4.0 × 10 C and
  • r = distance of charge from origin = x₁ - 0 = 2.0 m - 0 m = 2.0 m

<h3>What is the electric field due to the -4.0 μC charge?</h3>

The electric field due to the -4.0 μC charge is E = kq'/r² where

  • k = electric constant = 9.0 × 10 Nm²/C²,
  • q' = -4.0 μC = -4.0 × 10 C and
  • r = distance of charge from origin = 0 - x₂ = 0 - (-2.0 m) = 0 m + 2.0 m = 2.0 m

Since both electric fields are equal in magnitude and directed along the negative x-axis, the net electric field at the origin is

E" = E + E'

= -2E

= -2kq/r²

<h3>What is the electric potential at the origin?</h3>

So, the electric potential at the origin is V = -∫₂⁰E".dr

= -∫₂⁰-2kq/r².dr

Since E and dr = dx are parallel and r = x, we have

= -∫₂⁰-2kqdxcos0/x²

= 2kq∫₂⁰dx/x²

= 2kq[-1/x]₂⁰

= -2kq[1/x]₂⁰

= -2kq[1/0 - 1/2]

= -2kq[∞ - 1/2]

= -2kq[∞]

= -∞

So, the electric potential at the origin of the xy coordinate system is negative infinity

There are 2 concentric cylinders. These cylinders are very long with length L. The inner cylinder has a radius R1 and is a solid
OLga [1]
To get the charge along the inner cylinder, we use Gauss Law
E = d R1/2εo
For the outer cylinder the charge can be calculated using
E = d R2^2/2εoR1
where d is the charge density
Use these two equations to get the charge in between the cylinders and the capacitance between them.
