Answer:
1.843 x 10^-5 C
Explanation:
<u><em>Givens:
</em></u>
It is given that the air starts ionizing when the electric field in the air exceeds a magnitude of 3 x 10^6 N/C, which means that the max electric field can stand without forming a spark is 3 x 10^6 N/C.
Also it is given that the radius of the disk is 50 cm, it is required to find out the max amount of charge that the disk can hold without forming spark, which means the charge that would produce the max magnitude of the electric field that air can stand without forming spark, and since we know that the electric field in between 2 disk "Capacitor" is given by the following equation
E = (Q/A)/∈o (1)
Where,
Q: total charge on the disk.
A: the area of the disk.
<u><em>Calculations: </em></u>
We want to find the quantity of charge on the disk that would produce an electric field of 3 x 10^6 N/C, knowing the radius of the disk we can find the cross-section of the disk, thus substituting in equation (1) we find the maximum quantity of charge the disk can hold
Q = EA∈o
= (3 x 10^6) x (π*0.50) x (8.85 x 10^-12)
= 1.843 x 10^-5 C
note:
calculations maybe wrong but method is correct
Answer:
Magnitude of the Frictional force = (mv₀²)/2x₁
Explanation:
For the frictional force to stop the box, it has to produce the deceleration of the box; thereby being the opposing force to the box's motion.
According to Newton's first law of motion
Frictional force = (mass of the box) × (deceleration experienced by the box)
Let the mass of the box be m
Then,
Frictional force = ma
Then we can obtain the deceleration using the equations of motion
v² = u² + 2ax
u = Initial velocity = v₀ m/s
v = Final velocity = 0 m/s (since the box comes to rest at the end)
x = horizontal distance covered = (x₁ - x₀) = x₁ (since x₀ = 0)
a = ?
v² = u² + 2ax
0 = (v₀)² + 2ax₁
2ax₁ = - v₀²
a = - (v₀²)/(2x₁) (minus sign, because it's a deceleration)
Magnitude of the Frictional force = ma = (mv₀²)/2x₁

Where:
p = density
m = mass
V = volume
So to find the density you solve 36/16

Hope this helped. Have a great day!
