<span>We calculate the electric field as follows:
r = </span>√<span>(3)/6 x 19 cm = .05484 m 
The angle for the triangle would be 30 on each side.
tan(30) = r/(L/2) 

E' = kQ/{r*sqrt[(L/2)^2 + r^2]} = (8.99e9 x 15e-9) / {.05484 * sqrt[(.19/2)^2 + .003]}
</span>E' <span>= 22413 N/C
The value above is the electric field strength for a single rod at the center. 

|E'| = 22413 N/C 
E = 2|E'|sin(30) + |E'| = 49000 N/C</span>

A student has a displacement of 304 m north in 180 s. What was the student's average velocity?
DanielleElmas [232]

Answer:

v = 1.69 m/s

Explanation:

Given that,

Displacement of the student is 304 m due North and it takes 180 s.

We need to find the student's average velocity. Using formula of velocity.

Velocity = displacement/time

v=\dfrac{304\ m}{180\ s}\\\\v=1.69\ m/s

Hence, the student's average velocity is 1.69 m/s.

blagie [28]

Answer:

Hello your question is poorly written hence I will just give the difference between conduction and convection

answer :

Conduction occurs when there is direct contact between solids and source of heat. while convection occurs when there is transfer of thermal energy due to movement of liquid or gas

Explanation:

when a pot of water is placed on a hot stove the pot is heated through conduction because the metal pot is in direct conduct with the heat from the stove ( which is the primary source of heat in this scenerio ).

while the heat transfer from the hot pot to the water is executed through convection this is because heat transfer via convection requires the movement of liquid or gas.  as the warmer liquid moves over to the top the cooler liquid goes below inside the pot that way the whole liquid becomes warm .

Two students stand poised to leap off a high dive structure into the swimming pool below. Student B is twice as massive as stude
iogann1982 [59]

Answer: option (D)

Explanation:

The potential energy of each of the students is given below as

P.E(student A) = mgh, where m = mass of student A, g is acceleration due to gravity and h = height of the high dive structure.

The mass of student B is twice as much as that of A, hence his mass is 2m and his potential energy is given below as

P.E ( student B) =2mgh = 2(mgh)

Recall that the relationship between potential energy and work done is that

Work done = - (change in potential)

For student A, work done = - mgh

For student B, work done = - 2mgh

From the equations above it can be seen that student B will do twice the work in getting to the high dive structure than student A hence validating option D.
