Answer:

a)  λ = 5.19 10⁻⁴ C/m , b)  E = 1,573 10⁻³ N/C , c) the direction of the field is directed to the bar

Explanation:

a) the linear density defined as the ratio between the charge per unit length

       λ = q / l

Let's start by reducing the units to the SI system

     L = 8.15 cm (1m / 100cm) = 8.15 10⁻² m

     a = 12 cm (1m / 100cm) = 12 10⁻² m

    q = -4.23 fC (1 C / 10¹⁵ ft) = -4.23 10⁻¹⁵ C

    λ = -4.23 10⁻¹⁵ C / 8.15 10⁻²

    λ = 5.19 10⁻⁴ C/m

b) Let's look for the electric field for a point at a distance a from the end of the bar

      E = k  dq / r²

To simplify the notation, suppose the bar is the x axis. Since the density is constant, we can write it differentially

     λ = dq/dx

     dq = λ dx

     E = k ∫ λ dx / x²

We integrate and evaluate between the lower limits x = a and higher x = L + a. Here we place the test point at the origin of the system

     E = k λ (-1 / x)

     E = k λ (-1 /(L + a) + 1 /a)

     E = k λ (L /a(L + a)

Let's change the density for its value

     E = k (q / L) (L / a (L + a)

     E = k q  1 /[a(L + a)]

     E = 8.99 10⁹ 4.23 10⁻¹⁵ [1 /12 10⁻²(8.15 10⁻² + ​​12 10⁻²)]

     E = 1,573 10⁻³ N/C  

c) the direction of the field is directed to the bar, because it has a negative charge

d) now we change the distance a = 50 cm = 0.50 m

Bar

      E = 8.99 10⁹ 4.23 10⁻¹⁵ ( 1 /0.5(0.0815 +0.5))

      E = 1,308 10⁻⁴ N/C

Charge point

      q = -4.23 10⁻¹⁵ C

     E = k q / r²

     E = 8.99 10⁹ 4.23 10⁻¹⁵ / 0.5²

     E = 1.521 10⁻⁴ N/C

Sound travels through air at 343 m/s,
sasho [114]

The sound wave will have traveled 2565 m  farther in water than in air.

Answer:

Explanation:

It is known that distance covered by any object is directly proportional to the velocity of the object and the time taken to cover that distance.

Distance = Velocity × Time.

So if time is kept constant, then the distance covered by a wave can vary depending on the velocity of the wave.

As we can see in the present case, the velocity of sound wave in air is 343 m/s. So in 2.25 s, the sound wave will be able to cover the distance as shown below.

Distance = 343 × 2.25 =771.75 m

And for the sound wave travelling in fresh water, the velocity is given as 1483 m/s. So in a time interval of 2.25 s, the distance can be determined as the product of velocity and time.

Distance = 1483×2.25=3337 m.

Since, the velocity of sound wave travelling in fresh water is greater than the sound wave travelling in air, the distance traveled by sound wave in fresh water will be greater.

Difference in distance covered in water and air = 3337-772 m = 2565 m

So the sound wave will have traveled 2565 m  farther in water than in air.

state and explain any effect on sensitivity of liquid in a glass thermometer (i) reducing the diameter of capillary tube​
Ad libitum [116K]

Answer:

please give me brainlist and follow

Explanation:

The measuring sensitivity of liquid-in-glass thermometers increases with the amount of liquid in the thermometer. The more liquid there is, the more liquid will expand and rise in the glass tube. For this reason, liquid thermometers have a reservoir to increase the amount of liquid in the thermometer.

A sample of nitrogen gas has a volume of 5.0 ml at a pressure of 1.50 atm. what is the pressure exerted by the gas if the volume
olchik [2.2K]

A sample of nitrogen gas has a volume of 5.0 ml at a pressure of 1.50 atm. what is the pressure exerted by the gas if the volume increases to 30.0 ml, at constant temperature is 0.25atm.

On constant temperature, the pressure and volume relation become constant before and after the change in quantitities have occurred.

According to Boyle's Law,

P₁V₁ = P₂V₂

where, P₁ is pressure exerted by the gas initially

V₁ is the volume of gas initially

P₂ is pressure exerted by the gas finally

V₂ is the volume of gas finally

Given,

P₁ = 1.5 atm

V₁ = 5 ml

V₂ = 30 ml

P₂ =?

On substituting the given values in the above equation:

P₁V₁ = P₂V₂

1.5 atm × 5 ml = P₂ × 30 ml

P₂ = 0.25 atm

Hence, pressure exerted by the gas is 0.25atm.
