The electric field at one corner of a square is 1614217 N/C.

Explanation:

The distance between x and y direction diagonals.

As per the given details the distance between diagonals is calculated as

0.5² + 0.5² = c²  =>  c = 0.707 m

Charge to the right:  In x direction

In order to find the electric charge towards x direction

we use e = kq/r² formula

As 'k' is coulomb's constant it's value is 9 x 10^{9} N m²/C²

e = (9 x 10^{9})(250 x 10^{-7}) / (0.5)²

e = 9 x 10^{5} N/C

Charge diagonal:

e = kq/r²

e = [(9 x 10^{9})(250 x 10^{-7}) / (0.707)²] cos 45

e = 225000√2 N/C

X direction sum = 1218198 N/C.

Similarly as shown in x direction the charge is same for y direction also

Charge below:  For y direction

e = kq/r²

e = (9 x 10^{9})(250 x 10^{-7}) / (0.5)²

e = 9 x 10^{5} N/C

Charge diagonal:

e = kq/r²

e = [(9 x 10^{9})(250 x 10^{-7}) / (0.5)²] sin 45

e = 159099 N/C

Y direction sum = 1059099 N/C

Resultant electric field strength:

1218198 ² + 1059099² = e²

e = 1614217 N/C [45 degrees below the horizontal]

How much heat is absorbed by a 450g gold block as energy from the sun causes its temperature to change from 27°C to 32°C? (Speci
kotegsom [21]

Answer:

Q = 1057.5 [cal]

Explanation:

In order to solve this problem, we must use the following equation of thermal energy.

Q=m*C_{p}*(T_{final}-T_{initial})

where:

Q = heat energy [cal]

Cp = specific heat = 0.47 [cal/g*°C]

T_final = final temperature = 32 [°C]

T_initial = initial temperature = 27 [°C]

m = mass of the substance = 450 [g]

Now replacing:

Q=450*0.47*(32-27)\\Q=1057.5[cal]

A 110 V power line is protected by a 15 A fuse. What is the maximum number of 400 W lamps that can be simultaneously operated in
Nitella [24]

Answer:

Total number of lamps will be 4            

Explanation:

We have given power of the lamp W = 400 watt

Potential difference across the lamp V=110 volt

We know that power is equal to P=VI

So 400=110\times I

I=3.636A

Total current is given 15 A

As it is given that lamps are connected in parallel so total current is the sum of current through each lamp

So number of lamp will be n=\frac{15}{3.636}=4.125

As the lamp can not be in negative

So total number of lamps will be 4

If santa slides 5.00 m before reaching the edge, what is his speed as he leaves the roof?
AveGali [126]

Even with no friction, it depends on the slope of the roof. That is, it depends on how much elevation (altitude) he loses during the slide.

Whatever that number is ... call it 'h' ... Santa's speed when he reaches the edge is

Square root of (19.6h) meters per second.

It doesn't matter how much he weighs, or how far he has slud. Only how much altitude he lost on the slope while sliding.
