Answer:
Figure a. E_net = 99.518 N/C
Figure b. E_net = 177.151 N / C
Explanation:
Given:
- Attachment for figures missing in the question.
- The dimensions for rectangle are = 7.79 x 3.99 cm
- All four charges have equal magnitude Q = 10.6*10^-12 C
Find:
Find the magnitude of the electric field at the center of the rectangle in Figures a and b.
Solution:
- The Electric field generated by an charged particle Q at a distance r is given by:
E = k*Q / r^2
- Where, k is the coulomb's constant = 8.99 * 10^9
Part a)
- First we see that the charges +Q_1 and +Q_3 produce and electric field equal but opposite in nature. So the sum of Electric fields:
E_1 + E_3 = 0
- For Charges -Q_2 and +Q_4, they are equal in nature but act in the same direction towards the negative charge -Q_2. Hence, the net Electric Field at center of the rectangle can be given as:
E_net = E_2 + E_4
E_2 = E_4
E_net = 2*E = 2*k*Q / r^2
- The distance r from each corner to mid-point of the rectangle is constant. It can be evaluated by Pythagoras Theorem as follows:
r = sqrt ( (7.79/200)^2 + (3.99/200)^2 )
r = sqrt ( 1.9151*10^-3 ) = 0.043762 m
- Plug the values in the E_net expression developed above:
E_net = 2*(8.99*10^9)*(10.6*10^-12) / 1.9151*10^-3
E_net = 99.518 N/C
Part b)
- Similarly for Figure b, for Charges -Q_2 and +Q_4, they are equal in nature but act in the same direction towards the negative charge -Q_2. Also, Charges -Q_1 and +Q_3, they are equal in nature but act in the same direction towards the negative charge -Q_1. These Electric fields are equal in magnitude to what we calculated in part a).
- To find the vector sum of two Electric Fields E_1,3 and E_2,4 we see the horizontal components of each cancels each other out. While the vertical components E_1,3 and E_2,4 are equal in magnitude and direction.
Hence,
E_net = 2*E_part(a)*cos(Q)
- Where, Q is the angle between resultant, vertical in direction, and each of the electric field. We can calculate Q using trigonometry as follows:
Q = arctan ( 3.99 / 7.79 ) = 27.12 degrees.
- Now, compute the net electric field E_net:
E_net = 2*(99.518)*cos(27.12)
E_net = 177.151 N / C
Here as we know that there is no loss of energy
so we can say that maximum kinetic energy will become gravitational potential energy at its maximum height
So here we have
here we have
v = 20 m/s
m = 8000 kg
now from above equation we have
so maximum height is 20.4 m
