Answer:

The net Electric field at the mid point is 289.19 N/C

Given:

Q = + 71 nC = 71\times 10^{- 9} C

Q' = + 42 nC = 42\times 10^{- 9} C

Separation distance, d = 1.9 m

Solution:

To find the magnitude of electric field at the mid point,

Electric field at the mid-point due to charge Q is given by:

\vec{E} = \frac{Q}{4\pi\epsilon_{o}(\frac{d}{2})^{2}}

\vec{E} = \frac{71\times 10^{- 9}}{4\pi\8.85\times 10^{- 12}(\frac{1.9}{2})^{2}}

\vec{E} = 708.03 N/C

Now,

Electric field at the mid-point due to charge Q' is given by:

\vec{E'} = \frac{Q'}{4\pi\epsilon_{o}(\frac{d}{2})^{2}}

\vec{E'} = \frac{42\times 10^{- 9}}{4\pi\8.85\times 10^{- 12}(\frac{1.9}{2})^{2}}

\vec{E'} = 418.84 N/C

Now,

The net Electric field is given by:

\vec{E_{net}} = \vec{E} - \vec{E'}

\vec{E_{net}} = 708.03 - 418.84 = 289.19 N/C

Answer:

<em>Not slow down or speed up</em>.

Explanation:

Hitting the puck accelerates the speed of the puck from zero to the speed with which it leaves at the instance they lose contact. Since there is no friction between the puck and the ice, there will be no force decelerating or accelerating the hockey puck, allowing the puck to move away and remain in motion without speeding up or slowing down indefinitely theoretically.

Two Polaroids are aligned so that the initially unpolarized light passing through them is a maximum. At what angle should one of
steposvetlana [31]

To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the law of Malus which describes the change in the Intensity of Light when it crosses a polarized surface.

Mathematically the expression is given as

I = I_0 cos^2\theta

Where,

I_0= Initial Intensity

I = Final Intensity after pass through the polarizer

\theta= Angle between the polarizer and the light

Since it is sought to reduce the intensity by half the relationship between the two intensities will be given as

\frac{I}{I_0} = \frac{1}{2}

Using the Malus Law we have,

I = I_0 cos^2\theta

cos^2\theta = \frac{I}{I_0}

cos^2\theta = \frac{1}{2}

\theta = cos^{-1}(\frac{1}{2})^2

\theta = 75.52\°

Angle with respect to maximum is 90-75.52 = 14.48\°
