Let l = Q/L = linear charge density. The semi-circle has a length L which is half the circumference of the circle. So w can relate the radius of the circle to L by 

<span>C = 2L = 2*pi*R ---> R = L/pi </span>

<span>Now define the center of the semi-circle as the origin of coordinates and define a as the angle between R and the x-axis. </span>

<span>we can define a small charge dq as </span>

<span>dq = l*ds = l*R*da </span>

<span>So the electric field can be written as: </span>

<span>dE =kdq*(cos(a)/R^2 I_hat + sin(a)/R^2 j_hat) </span>

<span>dE = k*I*R*da*(cos(a)/R^2 I_hat + sin(a)/R^2 j_hat) </span>

<span>E = k*I*(sin(a)/R I_hat - cos(a)/R^2 j_hat) </span>

<span>E = pi*k*Q/L(sin(a)/L I_hat - cos(a)/L j_hat)</span>

HELP PLS.<br><br><br>What are the characteristics of the three states of matter?
vredina [299]

Matter can exist in one of three main states: solid, liquid, or gas. Solid matter is composed of tightly packed particles. A solid will retain its shape; the particles are not free to move around. Liquid matter is made of more loosely packed particles. Hopefully this helps:)

two masses are separated by 1 m. suppose the masses are moved so they are 2 m apart how will the gravitational force change
Verdich [7]
The gravitational force would get stronger because the farther the two masses are separated the more gravitational force will be used to pull them together the closer they are the less gravitational pull is used to pull them together
