Select the options that best complete the statement.Positively charged particle trajectories(always, never, the same as)follow e

lectric field lines, because(electric field lines are defined by the path positive test charges travel.,the particle velocities may or may not be in the same direction as the electric field lines.,positive charges repel each other and, therefore, are repelled by electric field lines.,the electric force on a positively charged particle is in the same direction as the electric field.)

Answer:

a) always. b) electric field lines are defined by the path positive test charges travel.

Explanation:

By convention, field lines always follow the direction that it would take a positive test charge  (small enough so it can´t disrupt the field created by a charge distribution), under the influence of an electric field, at the same point where the test charge is located.

So any positive charge, subject to an electric field influence, moves along the field line that passes through its current position, in the same way that a positive test charge would.

We could say also that the electric force on a positively charged particle is in the same direction as the electric field that produces that force (due to some charge distribution) , which is true, but it doesn´t explain why.

A point charge of 6.0 nC is placed at the center of a hollow spherical conductor (inner radius = 1.0 cm, outer radius = 2.0 cm)
egoroff_w [7]

Explanation:

The given data is as follows.

             q = 6.0 nC = 6 \times 10^{-9} C

         inner radius (r) = 1.0 cm = 0.01 m   (as 1 cm = 100 m)

So, there will be same charge on the inner surface as the charge enclosed with an opposite sign.

Formula to calculate the charge density is as follows.

            \sigma = \frac{q_{in}}{A} .......... (1)

Since, area of the sphere is as follows.

               A = 4 \pi r^{2} ........... (2)

Hence, substituting equation (2) in equation (1) as follows.

      \sigma = \frac{q_{in}}{4 \pi r^{2}}

                   = \frac{6 \times 10^{-9} C}{4 \times 3.14 \times (0.01)^{2}}            

                   = 0.477 \times 10^{-5}

or,               = 4.77 \mu C/m^{2}

Thus, we can conclude that the resulting charge density on the inner surface of the conducting sphere is 4.77 \mu C/m^{2}.

What is the distance covered by a Freely falling object 5 seconds after being dropped ? After 6 seconds?
mario62 [17]

This year is 60 years since I learned this stuff, and one of the things I always remembered is the formula for the distance a dropped object falls:

D = 1/2 A T²

Distance = (1/2) (acceleration) (time²)

The reason I never forgot it is because it's SO useful SO often.  You really should memorize it.  And don't bury it too deep in your toolbox ... you'll be needing it again very soon. (In fact, if you had learned it the first time you saw it, you could have solved this problem on your own today.)

The problem doesn't tell us what planet this is happening on, so let's make it easy and just assume it's on Earth.  Then the 'acceleration' is Earth gravity, and that's 9.8 m/s² .

In 5 seconds:

D = 1/2 A T²

D = (1/2) (9.8 m/s²) (5 sec)²

D = (4.9 m/s²) (25 sec²)

D = 122.5 meters


In 6 seconds:

D = 1/2 A T²

D = (1/2) (9.8 m/s²) (6 sec)²

D = (4.9 m/s²) (36 sec²)

D = 176 meters

¡¡¡AYUDA CON ESTOS EJERCICIOS DE FÍSICA!!!
asambeis [7]

Answer:

(a) 8 V, (b) 144000 V, (c) 2 x 10^(-8) C

Explanation:

(a) charge, q = 5 μC , Work, W = 40 x 10-^(-6) J

The electric potential is given by

W = q V

40\times10^{-6}=5 \times10^{-6}\times V\\\\V = 8 V

(b)

charge, q = 8 x 10^(-6) C, distance, r = 50 cm = 0.5 m

Let the potential is V.

V =\frac{k q}{r}\\\\V =\frac{9\times 10^{9}\times 8\times 10^{-6}}{0.5}\\\\V =144000 V

(c)

Work, W = 8 x 10^(-5) J, Potential difference, V = 4000 V

Let the charge is q.

W= q V

8\times10^{-5}= q\times 4000\\\\q =2\times 10^{-8} C

Consider the following geometric solids.
Bad White [126]

Before answering this question, first we have to understand the effect of ratio of surface area to volume on the rate of diffusion.

The rate of diffusion for a body having larger surface area as compared to the ratio of surface area to volume will be more than a body having less surface area. Mathematically it can written as-

                           V∝ R            [ where v is the rate of diffusion and r is the ratio of surface area to volume]

As per the question,the ratio of surface area to volume for a sphere is given 0.08m^{-1}

The surface area to volume ratio for right circular cylinder is given 2.1m^{-1}

Hence, it is obvious that the ratio is more for right circular cylinder.As the rate diffusion is directly proportional to the surface area to volume ratio,hence rate of diffusion will be more for right circular cylinder.

Hence the correct option is B. The rate of diffusion would be faster for the right cylinder.
