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

if you crash your car how could you decrease the damage to you or the car using the concept of impulse
kotykmax [81]

Explanation:

Crumple zones are sections in cars that are designed to crumple up when the car encounters a collision. Crumple zones minimize the effect of the force in an automobile collision in two ways. By crumpling, the car is less likely to rebound upon impact, thus minimizing the momentum change and the impulse.

Ket [755]
Ok, assuming "mj" in the question is Megajoules MJ) you need a total amount of rotational kinetic energy in the fly wheel at the beginning of the trip that equals
(2.4e6 J/km)x(300 km)=7.2e8 J
The expression for rotational kinetic energy is

E = (1/2)Iω²  

where I is the moment of inertia of the fly wheel and ω is the angular velocity.  
So this comes down to finding the value of I that gives the required energy.  We know the mass is 101kg.  The formula for a solid cylinder's moment of inertia is

 I = (1/2)mR²

We want (1/2)Iω² = 7.2e8 J and we know ω is limited to 470 revs/sec.  However, ω must be in radians per second so multiply it by 2π to get 
ω = 2953.1 rad/s
Now let's use this to solve the energy equation, E = (1/2)Iω²,  for I:
I = 2(7.2e8 J)/(2953.1 rad/s)² = 165.12 kg·m²

Now find the radius R,

 165.12 kg·m² = (1/2)(101)R²,
√(2·165/101) = 1.807m

R = 1.807m

Define second class lever​
Aleks04 [339]

Answer:

Please find detailed explanation of second class levers below

Explanation:

Levers are one of the classes of machine that possesses three levels namely: first class, second class and third claas. A second class lever is the level of levers in which the load (L) is in between the pivot (F) and the effort (E).

Examples of second class levers include; wheelbarrow, a bottle opener etc. In the bottle opener for example, the bottle lid (load) is in between the pivot of the opener and the hand opening it (effort).

LekaFEV [45]

Answer:

1500000 Pa

Explanation:

The formula for pressure is force per unit area.

P=F/A where  F is force and A is area

Given that ;

F= mass * acceleration due to gravity

F= 60 * 9.81 = 588.6 = 589 N

A= area = 4cm² = 0.0004 m²

P= F/A = 589 / 0.0004

P= 1471500

P=1500000 Pa
