Answer:

The magnitude of  the electric field is 5.75 N/C towards positive x- axis.

Explanation:

Given that,

Point charge at origin = 2 nC

Second charge = 5 nC

Distance at x axis = 8 m

We need to calculate the electric field at the point x = 2 m

Using formula of electric field

E=\dfrac{1}{4\pi\epsilon_{0}}(\dfrac{q_{1}}{r_{1}^2}+\dfrac{q_{2}}{r_{2}^2})

Put the value into the formula

E=9\times10^{9}\times(\dfrac{2\times10^{-9}}{2^2}+\dfrac{5\times10^{-9}}{(8-2)^2})

E=5.75\ N/C

The direction is toward positive x- axis.

Hence, The magnitude of  the electric field is 5.75 N/C towards positive x- axis.

What kind of circuit is the one shown below?
lions [1.4K]

Answer:

The given circuit diagram shows parallel circuit.

Explanation:

In this circuit diagram two bulbs are connected in parallel combination because current flows from the battery gets bifurcated at the junction. Thus, two bulbs are connected in parallel combination.

This parallel combinations of bulbs then connected to the battery given in the diagram. So, the combinations of bulbs are connected in parallel combinations with the battery.

Hence, both bulbs and battery are connected in parallel combinations with each other.

The circuit diagram shown in figure is parallel.

Example 4.6 provides a nice example of the overlap between kinematics and dynamics. It is known that the plane accelerates from
kodGreya [7K]

Answer:

ax = 2.60m/s^{2}, t = 26.92s

Explanation:

The acceleration of the plane can be determined by means of the kinematic equation that correspond to a Uniformly Accelerated Rectilinear Motion.

(vx)f^{2} = (vx)i^{2} + 2ax \Lambda x (1)

Where (vx)f^{2} is the final velocity, (vx)i^{2} is the initial velocity, ax is the acceleration and  \Lambda x is the distance traveled.

Equation (1) can be rewritten in terms of ax:

(vx)f^{2} - (vx)i^{2} = 2ax \Lambda x

2ax \Lambda x = (vx)f^{2} - (vx)i^{2}

ax = \frac{(vx)f^{2} - (vx)i^{2}}{2 \Lambda x}  (2)

Since the plane starts from rest, its initial velocity will be zero ((vx) = 0):

Replacing the values given in equation 2, it is gotten:

ax = \frac{(70m/s)^{2} - (0m/s)^{2}}{2(940m)}

ax = \frac{4900m/s}{2(940m)}

ax = \frac{4900m/s}{1880m}

ax = 2.60m/s^{2}

So, The acceleration of the plane is 2.60m/s^{2}    

Now that the acceleration is known, the next equation can be used to find out the time:

(vx)f = (vx)i + axt (3)

Rewritten equation (3) in terms of t:

t = \frac{(vx)f - (vx)i}{ax}

t = \frac{70m/s - 0m/s}{2.60m/s^{2}}

t = 26.92s

<u>Hence, the plane takes 26.92 seconds to reach its take-off speed.</u>

1. If the strength of the magnetic field at A is 16 units, the strength of the magnetic field at B is _____.
Alchen [17]

1. The strength of magnetic field at A is 64 unit, then the magnetic field strength at B. is 256 units.

64 × 64 = 256 units.

2. If the strength of magnetic field B is 6 units then the strength magnetic field at A is 24 units.

which is 256 : 4 = 16 units.

Magnetic field is one of the two ways where the intensity of magnetic field is being expressed.
