Suppose the electric field in problems 2 was caused by a point charge. The test charge is moved to a distance twice as far from

the charge. What is the magnitude of the force that the field exerts on the test charge now ?

Answer:

it is reduced four times.

Explanation:

By definition, the electric field is the force per unit charge created by a charge distribution.

If the charge creating the field is a point charge, the force exerted by it on a test charge, must obey Coulomb´s Law, so, it must be inversely proportional to the square of the distance between the charges.

So, if the distance increases twice, as the force is inversely proportional to the square of the distance, and the square of 2 is 4, this means that the magnitude of the force exerted on the test charge must be 4 times smaller.

A coaxial cable consists of a solid inner cylindrical conductor of radius 2 mm and an outer cylindrical shell of inner radius 3
4vir4ik [10]

Answer:

d) 1.2 mT

Explanation:

Here we want to find the magnitude of the magnetic field at a distance of 2.5 mm from the axis of the coaxial cable.

First of all, we observe that:

- The internal cylindrical conductor of radius 2 mm can be treated as a conductive wire placed at the axis of the cable, since here we are analyzing the field outside the radius of the conductor. The current flowing in this conductor is

I = 15 A

- The external conductor, of radius between 3 mm and 3.5 mm, does not contribute to the field at r = 2.5 mm, since 2.5 mm is situated before the inner shell of the conductor (at 3 mm).

Therefore, the net magnetic field is just given by the internal conductor. The magnetic field produced by a wire is given by

B=\frac{\mu_0 I}{2\pi r}

where

\mu_0 is the vacuum permeability

I = 15 A is the current in the conductor

r = 2.5 mm = 0.0025 m is the distance from the axis at which we want to calculate the field

Substituting, we find:

B=\frac{(4\pi\cdot 10^{-7})(15)}{2\pi(0.0025)}=1.2\cdot 10^{-3}T = 1.2 mT

A baseball travels 200 metes in 6 seconds, what is the baseball’s velocity?
goldenfox [79]

Answer:

33.33 m/sec

Explanation:

A baseball travels 200 metes in 6 seconds,

what is the baseball’s velocity?

use the formula: velocity = distance over time

where (d) distance = 200 m

and (t) time = 6 sec.

plugin values into the formula:

v = d / t

  = 200 m / 6 sec

  = 33.33 m/sec.

therefore, the baseball's velocity is 33.33 m/sec

Part 1 of 2
Readme [11.4K]

Answer:

I got you.. i'm in middle school and had that same question.

Explanation:

Refer to the diagram shown below.

The vertical distance traveled is

s = 25 m

The initial vertical launch velocity is zero.

Therefore

s = (1/2)*g*t²

where g = 9.8 m/s²

t = the time of flight, s

That is,

0.5*9.8*t² = 25

t² = 25/4.9 = 5.102

t = 2.26 s

Answer: 2.26 s

Reptile [31]

Answer:

v (speed) = S / t = 4 * 400 m / (6 * 60 sec) = 4.4 m/s

The average velocity  is zero because there is no net vector displacement.

A girl throws a marshmallow that lands in her friend’s mouth 2 m away. The girl threw the marshmallow at an angle of 30 degrees.
natima [27]

She threw the marshmallow at a speed of around 4.76 m/s.The formula for the horizontal range gives the velocity.

<h3>What is projectile motion?</h3>

The motion of an item hurled or projected into the air, subject only to gravity's acceleration, is known as projectile motion.

The item is known as a projectile, and the course it takes is known as a trajectory. Falling object motion is a simple one-dimensional kind of projectile motion with no horizontal movement.

Given data;

The marshmallow was thrown at a distance of 2 meters

Range,R =  3 m

Initial velocity,u

The angle at which the marshmallow was thrown,θ = 30°

The acceleration due to gravity,g = 9.81 m/s²

The projectile's motion is divided into two parts: horizontal and vertical motion.

\rm R = \frac{u^2sin2 \theta }{g} \\\\ \rm R  = \frac{u^2sin2 \times (30) }{9.81} \\\\ u^2=\frac{2 \times 9.81 }{sin 60^0} \\\\ u^2=22.66 \\\\ u=4.76 \ m/sec

Hence, she throws the marshmallow at a speed of 4.76 m/sec.
