Answer:

E = 3544.44 N/C

Explanation:

Given:

- charge Q = 2.2 *10^-6 C

- Length L = 1.3 m

Find:

The Electric Field strength E @ a  = 1.8 m

Solution:

- The differential electric field dE due to infinitesimal charge dq can be considered as a point charge at a distance of r is given by:

                                  dE = k*dq / r^2

- The charge Q is spread over entire length L, hence:

                                  dq = (Q / L ) * dx

-The resulting dE:

                                 dE = (k*Q/L)*(dx / r^2)

- point P lies on the x- axis with distance (x+a) from differential charge from:

                                 dE = (k*Q/L)*(dx / (x+a)^2)  

- Integrate dE over length 0 to L

                                 E = (-k*Q/L)*( 1 / (x+a) )

                                 E =  (-k*Q/L)* (1 / a - 1 / (L+a))

                                 E =  (-k*Q/L)* (L / a(L+a))

                                 E = (k*Q / a(L+a))

- Evaluate E @ a = 1.8 m

                                 E =(8.99*10^9 * 2.2*10^-6 / 1.8*(1.3+1.8))

                                 E = 3544.44 N/C

Define Refraction and give some knowlegde about it
shepuryov [24]
Refraction is the change in direction of a wave, caused by the change in the wave's speed. Examples of waves include sound waves and light waves. Refraction is seen most often when a wave passes from one transparent medium to another transparent medium. Different types of medium include air and water. When a wave passes from one transparent medium to another transparent medium, the wave will change its speed and its direction. For example, when a light wave travels through air and then passes into water, the wave will slow and change direction.

A truck traveling at a constant speed of 28 m/s passes a more slowly moving car. The instant the truck passes the car, the car b
choli [55]

Answer:

the velocity of car when it passes the truck is u = 16.33 m/s

Explanation:

given,

constant speed of truck  = 28 m/s

acceleration of car = 1.2 m/s²

passes the truck in 545 m

speed of the car when it just pass the truck = ?

time taken by the truck to travel 545 m

              time =\dfrac{distance}{speed}

              time =\dfrac{545}{28}

              time =19.46 s

velocity of the car when it crosses the truck

S = ut + \dfrac{1}{2}at^2

545= u\times 19.46 + \dfrac{1}{2} \times 1.2 \times 19.46^2

u = 16.33 m/s

the velocity of car when it passes the truck is u = 16.33 m/s

If the Earth and distant stars were stationary (motionless) in space, what would we observe about the wavelength from these star
torisob [31]
There's no such thing as "stationary in space".  But if the distance
between the Earth and some stars is not changing, then (A) w<span>avelengths
measured here would match the actual wavelengths emitted from these
stars. </span><span>

</span><span>If a star is moving toward us in space, then (A) Wavelengths measured
would be shorter than the actual wavelengths emitted from that star.

</span>In order to decide what's actually happening, and how that star is moving, 
the trick is:  How do we know the actual wavelengths the star emitted ?
