A free positive charge released in an electric field will:

Physics
1 answer:
choli [55]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

accelerate in the direction in which the electric field is pointing.

Explanation:

The positive charge feels a force in the same direction as the electric field

F=Eq  

F and E are vectors, q is a scalar

(if it were a negative charge the force would be in the opposite direction)

that force will produce an acceleration in the same direction, that acceleration will cause the particle to move in the same direction, ie the direction of the electric field.

A 20 newton weight is attached to a spring, causing it to stretch, as shown in the diagram below. What is the spring constant of
Whitepunk [10]

A 20.-N force stretches the spring by 1.00 m - 0.50 m = 0.50 m, so by Hooke's law the spring constant is k such that

20. N = k (0.50 m)

⇒   k = (20. N) / (0.50 m) = 40 N/m

A light ray travels in the +x direction and strikes a slanted surface with an angle of 62° between its normal and the ty axis. T
Elena-2011 [213]

Answer:

- 0.6

Explanation:

Given that angle between normal y axis is 62° so angle between  normal

and x axis will be 90- 62 = 28 °. Since incident ray is along x axis , 28 ° will be the angle between incident ray and normal ie it will be angle of incidence

Angle of incidence = 28 °

angle of reflection = 28°

Angle between incident ray and reflected ray = 28 + 28 = 56 °

Angle between x axis and reflected ray = 56 °

x component of reflected ray

= - cos 56 ( it will be towards - ve x axis. )
