The electric potential a distance r from a small charge is proportional to what power of the distance from the charge?

Physics
1 answer:
gizmo_the_mogwai [7]2 years ago
3 0

Answer: r^-1

Explanation:

V = (k × Q) / r, where V is electric potential, k is constant and r is distance from charge.

Since Q will not change, it can be considered a constant too.

So, we can write V ∝ 1/r

which is same as V ∝ r^-1

There is a uniform magnetic field of magnitude B, pervading all space, perpendicular to the plane of rod and rails. The rod is r
Charra [1.4K]

The right hand rule to find the direction of the magnetic field for a falling bar is:

  • The charge is positive the magnetic field is outgoing, horizontally and towards us.
  • The charge of the bar is negative, the magnetic field is incoming, that is horizontal away from us.

The magnetic force is given by the vector product of the velocity and the magnetic field.

        F = q v x B

Where the bolds indicate vectors, F is the force, q the charge on the particle, v the velocity and B the magnetic field.

In the vector product, the vectors are perpendicular, which is why the right-hand rule has been established, see attached:

  • The thumb points in the direction of speed.
  • Fingers extended in the direction of the magnetic field.
  • The palm is in the direction of the force if the charge is positive and in the opposite direction if the charge is negative.

They indicate that the bar is dropped, therefore its speed is vertical and downwards, it moves to the left therefore this is the direction of the force, we use the right hand rule, the magnetic field must be horizontal, we have two possibilities:

  • If the charge is positive the magnetic field is outgoing, horizontally and towards us.
  • If the charge of the bar is negative, the magnetic field is incoming, that is, horizontal away from us

In conclusion using the right hand rule we can find the direction of the magnetic field for a falling bar is:

  • The charge of the bar is negative, the magnetic field is incoming, that is horizontal away from us.
  • The charge is positive the magnetic field is outgoing, horizontally and towards us.

A cubic metal box with sides of 17 cm contains air at a pressure of 1 atm and a temperature of 278 K. The box is sealed so that
const2013 [10]

Answer:

F = 3.98 kN

Explanation:

GIVEN DATA:

sides of box = 17 cm

pressure = 1 atm = 101325 N/m2

T2 = 378K

T1 = 278 K

final pressure can be calculate by using below relation

\frac{P_{1}}{P_{2}}=\frac{T_{1}}{T_{2}}

we know that

force = pressure * area

therefore force is

F =(\frac{T_{1}}{T_{2}}*P_{1})A

F =(\frac{378}{278}*101325)(17*10^{-2})^{2}

F = 3.98 kN

How many Mars-sized planets can fit in Jupiter
Maru [420]

Answer:

You could put over six planets the size of Mars inside the Earth. The largest planet in our Solar System, Jupiter's size is astounding. Jupiter has a volume of 1.43 x 1015 cubic kilometers. To show what this number means, you could fit 1321 Earths inside of Jupiter
