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

Which of the following is defined as an area of the body surface that is innervated by a single spinal​ nerve?
romanna [79]

Answer:

Dermatome. (Ans. C).

Explanation:

Dermatome is defined as the area of the human anatomy skin which is supplied by single spinal sensory nerve root. At the spinal cord these spinal sensory nerve enter the nerve root, and the branches of spinal sensory reach to the periphery of the body.

The sensory nerve which is present in the periphery of the body are the type of nerve which helps to transmit signals from sensation such as pain, temperature, etc. to the spinal cord from some specific area of the anatomy.

How much energy, in joules, is released when 17 kilograms of granite is cooled from 45°C to 21°C?
zepelin [54]
The final answer is -322, 320 Joules. The solution for the problem is:

The equation that must be used in this problem is:

U = mCp(Tf-Ti)

where:
U = energy released or absorbed in Joules
m = mass in kg
Cp = specific heat of material in J/kg-C
Tf = final temperature, C
Ti = initial temperature, C

Looking up the Cp of granite gives a value of 790 J/kg-C.

U = 17kg (790 J/kg-C) (21-45)
<span>U = - 322, 320 Joules (negative means heat is released)</span>

5. A cable is attached 32.0 m from the base of a flagpole that is about to
soldi70 [24.7K]

Answer:

The length of the flagpole is approximately 87.43 m

Explanation:

The given parameters of the cable attached to the flagpole are;

The point along the flagpole at which the cable is attached = 32.0 m

The angle with respect to the ground at which the raising of the flagpole is halted = 60.0°

The downward force exerted by the cable, F_v = 1.233 × 10⁴ N

The force exerted by the cable to the left = 1.233 × 10⁴ N

Let 'W' represent the weight of the flagpole, at equilibrium, we have;

The sum of vertical forces = 0

Therefore;

F_v + W - R = 0

W - R = -1.233 × 10⁴ N

Taking moment about the support at the base of the pole, we get;

1.233 × 10⁴ × d × cos(60.0°) - 1.233 × 10⁴ ×d× sin(60.0°) + W × d/2 ×cos(60.0°) = 0

∴ W × d/2 ×cos(60.0°) ≈  4513.093·d  

W = 2 × 4513.093/(cos(60.0°)) ≈ 18,052.373 N

R = 18,052.373 + 1.233 × 10⁴ ≈ 30,382.373

R ≈ 30,382.373 N

Taking moment about the point of attachment of the cable to the ground, we have;

W × ((d/2) × cos(60.0°) + 32) = R × 32

∴ (d/2) = ((30,382.373 × 32/18,052.373) - 32)/(cos(60.0°)) ≈ 43.71281

d = 2 × 43.71281 ≈ 87.43

The length of the flagpole, d ≈ 87.43 m
