If a positive test charge is placed in an electric field, what is the direction of the force on the test charge?

1 answer:

svetlana [45]3 years ago

6 0

Explanation:

If a positive test charge is placed in an electric field, it will exert the force in the test charge in the direction of electric field vector. We know that the direction of electric field is given by electric field lines. The field lines for a positive charge is outwards. The electric force acting on the charge is given by :

F = q E

Hence, this is the required solution.

Nikolay [14]

Answer:

681.6/ms

Explanation:

A reconnaissance plane flies 545 km away from its base at 568 m/s. then flies back to its base at 852 m/s.

What is its average speed?

Answer in its of m/s

Avg speed of the round trip is

2*568*852/(568+852)= 681.6/ms

What is the unit of the quotient of inductance and resistance?

Scorpion4ik [409]

The unit of the quotient of inductance and resistance will be Henry and ohm

Inductance is the tendency of an electrical conductor to oppose a change in the electric current flowing through it. The flow of electric current creates a magnetic field around the conductor. The field strength depends on the magnitude of the current, and follows any changes in current.

Resistance is a measure of the opposition to current flow in an electrical circuit. Resistance is measured in ohms, symbolized by the Greek letter omega (Ω). Ohms are named after Georg Simon Ohm (1784-1854), a German physicist who studied the relationship between voltage, current and resistance.

unit of quotient of inductance = henry (H)

unit of resistance = ohm

An ideal gas is allowed to expand isothermally from 2.00 l at 5.00 atm in two steps:

Burka [1]

Heat added to the gas = Q = 743 Joules

Work done on the gas = W = -743 Joules

$\texttt{ }$

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

The Ideal Gas Law that needs to be recalled is:

$\large {\boxed {PV = nRT} }$

<em>P = Pressure (Pa)</em>

<em>V = Volume (m³)</em>

<em>n = number of moles (moles)</em>

<em>R = Gas Constant (8.314 J/mol K)</em>

<em>T = Absolute Temperature (K)</em>

Let us now tackle the problem !

$\texttt{ }$

<u>Given:</u>

Initial volume of the gas = V₁ = 2.00 L

Initial pressure of the gas = P₁ = 5.00 atm

<u>Unknown:</u>

Work done on the gas = W = ?

Heat added to the gas = Q = ?

<u>Solution:</u>

<h3>Step A:</h3>

<em>Ideal gas is allowed to expand isothermally:</em>

$P_1V_1 = P_2V_2$

$5.00 \times 2.00 = 3.00 \times V_2$

$V_2 = 10 \div 3$

$V_2 = 3\frac{1}{3} \texttt{ L}$

$\texttt{ }$

<em>Next we will calculate the work done on the gas:</em>

$W_A = -P_2(V_2 - V_1)$

$W_A = -3.00(3\frac{1}{3} - 2.00)$

$W_A = \boxed{-4 \texttt{ L.atm}}$

$\texttt{ }$

<h3>Step B:</h3>

<em>Using the same method as above:</em>

$P_2V_2 = P_3V_3$

$3.00 \times 3\frac{1}{3} = 2.00 \times V_3$

$V_3 = 10 \div 2$

$V_3 = 5 \texttt{ L}$

$\texttt{ }$

<em>Next we will calculate the work done on the gas:</em>

$W_B = -P_3(V_3 - V_2)$

$W_B = -2.00(5 - 3\frac{1}{3})$

$W_B = \boxed{-3\frac{1}{3} \texttt{ L.atm}}$

$\texttt{ }$

<em>Finally we could calculate the total work done and heat added as follows:</em>

$W = W_A + W_B$

$W = -4 + (-3\frac{1}{3})$

$W = -7\frac{1}{3} \texttt{ L.atm}$

$W = -7\frac{1}{3} \times 101.33 \texttt{ J}$

$\boxed{W \approx -743 \textt{ J}}$

$\texttt{ }$

$\Delta U = Q + W$

$0 = Q + (-743)$

$\boxed{Q = 743 \texttt{ J}}$

$\texttt{ }$
