Answer:

So the correct answer is letter e)

Explanation:

The electric field of an infinite yz-plane with a uniform surface charge density (σ) is given by:

$E=\frac{\sigma }{2\epsilon_{0}}$

Where ε₀ is the electric permitivity.

As we see, this electric field does not depend on distance, so the correct answer is letter e)

I hope it helps you!

an electrically charged particle with mass m, velocity v, and charge q moves in a circle in magnetic field b. what is the formul

kolbaska11 [484]

Answer:

$r=\frac {mv}{qb}$

Explanation:

In this case, since the charged particle moves in circular motion, the centripetal force is equivalent to the magnetic force.

$\frac {mv^{2}}{r}=qvb\\\frac {mv}{r}=qb\\r=\frac {mv}{qb}$

What is the specific heat of an object if it takes 1200 J to raise the temperature of a 20 kg object by 6 degrees C?

ch4aika [34]

Answer:

$c=10\ J/kg^{\circ} C$

Explanation:

Given that,

Heat required, Q = 1200 J

Mass of the object, m = 20 kg

The increase in temperature, $\Delta T=6^{\circ} C$

We need to find the specific heat of the object. The heat required to raise the temperature is given by :

$Q=mc\Delta T\\\\c=\dfrac{Q}{m\Delta T}\\\\c=\dfrac{1200}{20\times 6}\\\\c=10\ J/kg^{\circ} C$

So, the specific heat of the object is $10\ J/kg^{\circ} C$ .

A paper is placed in between two books can be quickly pulled out without movinf the books. whuch statement explains this phenome

Montano1993 [528]

This is easily explained saying that the frictional force between the books and the paper isn't big enough to produce a displacement in the books. The displacement in the books doesn't happen because the frictional force between the books and the surface they are standing on is bigger than the paper's one.

Select the situation for which the torque is the smallest.

alina1380 [7]

Answer:

e. The torque is the same for all cases.

Explanation:

The formula for torque is:

τ = Fr

where,

τ = Torque

F = Force = Weight (in this case) = mg

r = perpendicular distance between force an axis of rotation

Therefore,

τ = mgr

Here,

m = 200 kg

r = 2.5 m

Therefore,

τ = (200 kg)(9.8 m/s²)(2.5 m)

τ = 4900 N.m

Here,

m = 20 kg

r = 25 m

Therefore,

τ = (20 kg)(9.8 m/s²)(25 m)

τ = 4900 N.m

Here,

m = 8 kg

r = 62.5 m

Therefore,

τ = (8 kg)(9.8 m/s²)(62.5 m)

τ = 4900 N.m

Hence, the correct answer will be:

e. The torque is the same for all cases.
