You place a point charge q = -4.00 nC a distance of 9.00 cm from an infinitely long, thin wire that has linear charge density 3.

valentinak56 [21]

Answer:

$F=6\times 10^{-7}\ N$

Explanation:

Given:

quantity of point charge, $q=-4\times 10^{-9}\ C$

radial distance from the linear charge, $r=0.09\ m$

linear charge density, $\lambda=3\times 10^{-9}\ C.m^{-1}$

<u>We know that the electric field by the linear charge is given as:</u>

$E=\frac{\lambda}{2\pi.\epsilon_0.r}$

$E=\frac{1}{2}\times 9\times 10^9\times \frac{3\times10^{-9}}{0.09}$

$E=150\ N.C^{-1}$

<u>Now the force on the given charge can be given as:</u>

$F=E.q$

$F=150\times 4\times 10^{-9}$

$F=6\times 10^{-7}\ N$

Give two mathematical examples of Newton's third law and how you get the solution

bagirrra123 [75]

Answer:

1) Any particle moving in a horizontal plane slowed by friction, deceleration = 32 μ

2) The particle moving by acceleration = P/m - 32μ OR The external force = ma + 32μm

Explanation:

* Lets revise Newton’s Third Law:

- For every action there is a reaction, equal in magnitude and opposite

in direction.

- Examples:

# 1) A particle moving freely against friction in a horizontal plane

- When no external forces acts on the particle, then its equation of

motion is;

∵ ∑ forces in direction of motion = mass × acceleration

∵ No external force

∵ The friction force (F) = μR, where μ is coefficient of the frictional force

and R is the normal reaction of the weight of the particle on the

surface

∵ The frictional force is in opposite direction of the motion

∴ ∑ forces in the direction of motion = 0 - F

∴ 0 - F = mass × acceleration

- Substitute F by μR

∴ - μR = mass × acceleration

∵ R = mg where m is the mass of the particle and g is the acceleration

of gravity

∴ - μ(mg) = ma ⇒ a is the acceleration of motion

- By divide both sides by m

∴ - μ(g) = a

∵ The acceleration of gravity ≅ 32 feet/sec²

∴ a = - 32 μ

* Any particle moving in a horizontal plane slowed by friction,

deceleration = 32 μ

# 2) A particle moving under the action of an external force P in a

horizontal plane.

- When an external force P acts on the particle, then its equation

of motion is;

∵ ∑ forces in direction of motion = mass × acceleration

∵ The external force = P

∵ The friction force (F) = μR, where μ is coefficient of the frictional force

and R is the normal reaction of the weight of the particle on the

surface

∵ The frictional force is in opposite direction of the motion

∴ ∑ forces in the direction of motion = P - F

∴ P - F = mass × acceleration

- Substitute F by μR

∴ P - μR = mass × acceleration

∵ R = mg where m is the mass of the particle and g is the acceleration

of gravity

∴ P - μ(mg) = ma ⇒ a is the acceleration of motion

∵ The acceleration of gravity ≅ 32 feet/sec²

∴ P - 32μm = ma ⇒ (1)

- divide both side by m

∴ a = (P - 32μm)/m ⇒ divide the 2 terms in the bracket by m

∴ a = P/m - 32μ

* The particle moving by acceleration = P/m - 32μ

- If you want to fin the external force P use equation (1)

∵ P - 32μm = ma ⇒ add 32μm to both sides

∴ P = ma + 32μm

* The external force = ma + 32μm

You wish to cool a 1.83 kg block of tin initially at 88.0°C to a temperature of 57.0°C by placing it in a container of kerosene

uranmaximum [27]

Answer:

0.273 liters are needed to accomplish this task without boiling.

Explanation:

The minimum boiling point of kerosene is $150\,^{\circ}C$ . According to this question, we need to determine the minimum volume of liquid such that heat received is entirely sensible, that is, with no phase change.

If we consider a steady state process and that energy interactions with surrounding are negligible, then we get the following formula by the Principle of Energy Conservation:

$\rho_{k}\cdot V_{k}\cdot c_{k}\cdot (T-T_{k,o}) = m_{t}\cdot c_{t}\cdot (T_{t,o}-T)$ (1)

Where:

$\rho_{k}$ - Density of kerosene, measured in kilograms per cubic meter.

$V_{k}$ - Volume of kerosene, measured in cubic meters.

$c_{k}$ , $c_{t}$ - Specific heats of the kerosene and tin, measured in joule per kilogram-Celsius.

$T_{k,o}$ , $T_{t,o}$ - Initial temperatures of kerosene and tin, measured in degrees Celsius.

$T$ - Final temperatures of the kerosene-tin system, measured in degrees Celsius.

Please notice that the block of tin is cooled at the expense of the temperature of the kerosene until thermal equilibrium is reached.

From (1), we clear the volume of kerosene:

$V_{k} = \frac{m_{t}\cdot c_{t}\cdot (T_{t,o}-T)}{\rho_{k}\cdot c_{k}\cdot (T-T_{k,o})}$

If we know that $m_{t} = 1.83\,kg$ , $c_{t} = 218\,\frac{J}{kg\cdot ^{\circ}C}$ , $T_{t,o} = 88\,^{\circ}C$ , $T_{k,o} = 24.0\,^{\circ}C$ , $T = 57\,^{\circ}C$ , $c_{k} = 2010\,\frac{J}{kg\cdot ^{\circ}C}$ and $\rho_{k} = 820\,\frac{kg}{m^{3}}$ , then the volume of the liquid needed to accomplish this task without boiling is:

$V_{k} = \frac{(1.83\,kg)\cdot \left(218\,\frac{J}{kg\cdot ^{\circ}C} \right)\cdot (88\,^{\circ}C-57\,^{\circ}C)}{\left(820\,\frac{kg}{m^{3}} \right)\cdot \left(2010\,\frac{J}{kg\cdot ^{\circ}C} \right)\cdot (57\,^{\circ}C-24\,^{\circ}C)}$

$V_{k} = 2.273\times 10^{-4}\,m^{3}$

$V_{k} = 0.273\,L$

0.273 liters are needed to accomplish this task without boiling.

Explain the difference between the four states of matter.

pishuonlain [190]

Answer:

Solids :A solid has a definite shape and volume because the molecules that make up the solid are packed closely together and move slowly. Solids are often crystalline; examples of crystalline solids include table salt, sugar, diamonds, and many other minerals. Solids are sometimes formed when liquids or gases are cooled; ice is an example of a cooled liquid which has become solid. Other examples of solids include wood, metal, and rock at room temperature. Liquids : A liquid has a definite volume but takes the shape of its container. Examples of liquids include water and oil. Gases may liquefy when they cool, as is the case with water vapor. This occurs as the molecules in the gas slow down and lose energy. Solids may liquefy when they heat up; molten lava is an example of solid rock which has liquefied as a result of intense heat. Gases : A gas has neither a definite volume nor a definite shape. Some gases can be seen and felt, while others are intangible for human beings. Examples of gases are air, oxygen, and helium. Earth's atmosphere is made up of gases including nitrogen, oxygen, and carbon dioxide. Plasma: Plasma has neither a definite volume nor a definite shape. Plasma often is seen in ionized gases, but it is distinct from a gas because it possesses unique properties. Free electrical charges (not bound to atoms or ions) cause the plasma to be electrically conductive. The plasma may be formed by heating and ionizing a gas. Examples of plasma include stars, lightning, fluorescent lights, and neon signs.
