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

Consider three drinking glasses. All three have thesame area base, and all three are filled to the same depth withwater. Glass A
Sergio [31]

Answer:

The correct answer is C.  All three have equal non-zero pressure

Explanation:

Pressure is the relationship between the force and the area of ​​a body, when the bodies are liquid the formula that

         P = rho g h

Where rho is the density and h the height of the liquid

We see that for this expression the pressure does not depend on the shape of the container, but on its height, as the three vessels have the same height, the pressure at the bottom is the same.

The correct answer is C   All three have equal non-zero pressure

A spaceship whose rest length is 350m has a speed of .82c
igomit [66]

Answer:

t'=1.1897*10^{-6} s

t'=1.1897 μs

Explanation:

First we will calculate the velocity of micrometeorite relative to spaceship.

Formula:

u=\frac{u'+v}{1+\frac{u'*v}{c^{2}}}

where:

v is the velocity of spaceship relative to certain frame of reference =  -0.82c (Negative sign is due to antiparallel track).

u is the velocity of micrometeorite relative to same frame of reference as spaceship = .82c (Negative sign is due to antiparallel track)

u' is the relative velocity of micrometeorite with respect to spaceship.

In order to find u' , we can rewrite the above expression as:

u'=\frac{v-u}{\frac{u*v}{c^{2} }-1 }

u'=\frac{-0.82c-0.82c}{\frac{0.82c*(-0.82c)}{c^{2} }-1 }

u'=0.9806c

Time for micrometeorite to pass spaceship can be calculated as:

t'=\frac{length}{Relatie seed (u')}

t'=\frac{350}{0.9806c}     (c = 3*10^8 m/s)

t'=\frac{350}{0.9806* 3.0*10^{8} }

t'=1.1897*10^{-6} s

t'=1.1897 μs

slader How much energy is required to move a 1040 kg object from the Earth's surface to an altitude four times the Earth's radiu
andrew-mc [135]

Answer:

ΔU = 5.21 × 10^(10) J

Explanation:

We are given;

Mass of object; m = 1040 kg

To solve this, we will use the formula for potential energy which is;

U = -GMm/r

But we are told we want to move the object from the Earth's surface to an altitude four times the Earth's radius.

Thus;

ΔU = -GMm((1/r_f) - (1/r_i))

Where;

M is mass of earth = 5.98 × 10^(24) kg

r_f is final radius

r_i is initial radius

G is gravitational constant = 6.67 × 10^(-11) N.m²/kg²

Since, it's moving to altitude four times the Earth's radius, it means that;

r_i = R_e

r_f = R_e + 4R_e = 5R_e

Where R_e is radius of earth = 6371 × 10³ m

Thus;

ΔU = -6.67 × 10^(-11) × 5.98 × 10^(24)

× 1040((1/(5 × 6371 × 10³)) - (1/(6371 × 10³))

ΔU = 5.21 × 10^(10) J
