A horizontal insulating rod of length 11.8-cm and charge 19 nC is in a plane with a long straight vertical uniform line charge.

The linear charge density of the long line charge is 1.4 10-7 C/m. What is the electric force on the rod if the end closest to the line charge is 2.0 cm away? Hint: the electric field from an infinitely long straight uniform line charge is E(r) = 2 k λ r .

Answer:

11.962337 × 10^-4 N

Explanation:

Given the following :

Length L = 11.8

Charge = 29nC = 29 × 10^-9 C

Linear charge density λ = 1.4 × 10^-7 C/m

Radius (r) = 2cm = 2/100 = 0.02 m

Using the relation:

E = 2kλ/r ; F =qE

F = 2kλq/L × ∫dr/r

F = 2*k*q*λ/L × (In(0.02 + L) - In(0.02))

2*k*q*λ/L = [2 × (9 * 10^9) * (29 * 10^9) * (1.4 * 10^-7)]/ 0.118] = 6193.2203 × 10^(9 - 9 - 7) = 6193.2203 × 10^-7 = 6.1932203 × 10^-4

In(0.02 + 0.118) - In(0.02) = In(0.138) - In(0.02) = 1.9315214

Hence,

(6.1932203 × 10^-4) × 1.9315214 = 11.962337 × 10^-4 N

A force of 12N acts to the left on a body and a force of 16 N acts to the right . The size and direction of resultant force is
mash [69]

Answer:

<h2>4 N to the right</h2>

Explanation:

<u>The force acting to the right of the body is acting in the positive x direction while the force acting to the left of the body is acting in the negative x direction.</u>

If a force of 12N acts to the left on a body and a force of 16 N acts to the right, force acting to the left will be -12N while that acting to the right will be +16N.

The resultant force acting on the bod will be the sum of the two forces.

Resultant = -12N+16N

Resultant = 4N

<u>The direction of the resultant force will be towards the right since the resultant is a positive value.</u>

If the charge remains the same but the radius of the sphere is doubled, the electric flux coming out of it will be
il63 [147K]

Answer:

Explanation:

We shall apply Gauss's theorem for electric flux to solve the problem . According to this theorem , total electric flux coming out of a charge q can be given by the following relation .

∫ E ds = q / ε

Here q is assumed to be enclosed in a closed surface , E is electric intensity on the surface so

∫ E ds represents total electric flux passing through the closed surface due to charge q enclosed in the surface .

This also represents total flux coming out of the charge q on all sides .

This is equal to q / ε where ε is a constant called permittivity  which depends upon the medium enclosing the charge . For air , its value is 8.85 x 10⁻¹² .

If charge remains the same but radius of the sphere enclosing the charge is doubled , the flux coming out of charge will remain the same .

It is so because flux coming out of charge q is q / ε . It does not depend upon surface area enclosing the charge . It depends upon two factors

1 ) charge q and

2 ) the permittivity of medium  ε  around .

The type of chemical bond that involves the transfer of electrons between atoms is a(n) bond.
GaryK [48]
<h3>Answer;</h3>

<em>-Ionic bond</em>

<h3>Explanation;</h3>
  • <u>Ionic bond</u> is a type of bonds that results from transfers of electrons from one atom to another.  This types of bond is formed between metals and non metals.
  • Metals lose electrons to form cations (positively charged ion) and non metals gain electrons forming anions, negatively charged ion.
  • For instance; between sodium and chlorine element; sodium donates a single electron to attain a stable configuration while chlorine gains an electron to achieve stable configuration, thus forming an ionic compound sodium chloride.
