Points A and B lie within a region of space where there is a uniform electric field that has no x- or z-component; only the y-co

mponent Ey is non zero. Point A is at y=8.00 cm and point B is at y=15.0 cm. The potential difference between B and A is VB−VA=+12.0 V, so point B is at higher potential than point A. (a) Is Ey positive or negative? (b) What is the magnitude of the electric field? (c) Point C has coordinates x=5.00 cm, y=5.00 cm. What is the potential difference between points B and C?

Answer:

(a) Ey is negative

(b) The magnitude of the electric field is E = 171.429 V/m

(c) The potential difference between points B and C is 17.1429 V

Explanation:

(a) Here, we have the potentials given by;

V_A - V_B = +12.0V with point A at y = 8.00 cm and point B at point y = 15.0 cm

where point B is at a higher potential than point A, that is the electric potential is from;

B with y = 15.0 cm to A with y = 8.0 cm which means

E_y decreases as y increases or E_y  is negative.

(b) The magnitude of the electric field is given by

The work done to move a charge from B to A is

W_{BA} = - \Delta U where

\Delta U = U_a -U_b = q_0E(y_b-y_a)

V_{BA} = \frac{\Delta U}{q_0} = \frac{q_0E(y_b-y_a)}{q_0}  = E(y_b-y_a)

∴ E = \frac{V_{BA}}{(y_b-y_a)}

E = \frac{12 \hspace{0.09cm}V}{(0.015\hspace{0.09cm} m -0.008\hspace{0.09cm} m)}

E = 171.429 V/m

(c) Here we have point C x = 5.00 cm and y = 5.00 cm

Therefore we have the distance from B to C given by

y_b-y_c = 15.00 \hspace{0.09cm}cm - 5.00  \hspace{0.09cm}cm = 10.00 \hspace{0.09cm} cm

Where 10.00 cm = 0.01 m

E = V/Δy

Therefore, V = Δy·E

For V_{BC}, Δy = y_b-y_c  = 0.01 \hspace{0.09cm} m and we have,

V_{BC} = E\times (y_b-y_c)

V_{BC} = 171.429\times (0.015-0.005) = 17.1429\hspace{0.09cm}V

Calculate the force of gravity between planet X and planet y if both planets are 3.75 X 10^11 m apart, planet X has a mass of 1.
GenaCL600 [577]

So, the force of gravity that the asteroid and the planet have on each other approximately \boxed{\sf{2.9 \times 10^{17} \: N}}

<h3>Introduction</h3>

Hi ! Now, I will help to discuss about the gravitational force between two objects. The force of gravity is not affected by the radius of an object, but radius between two object. Moreover, if the object is a planet, the radius of the planet is only to calculate the "gravitational acceleration" on the planet itself,does not determine the gravitational force between the two planets. For the gravitational force between two objects, it can be calculated using the following formula :

\boxed{\sf{\bold{F = G \times \frac{m_1 \times m_2}{r^2}}}}

With the following condition :

  • F = gravitational force (N)
  • G = gravity constant ≈ \sf{6.67 \times 10^{-11}} N.m²/kg²
  • \sf{m_1} = mass of the first object (kg)
  • \sf{m_2} = mass of the second object (kg)
  • r = distance between two objects (m)

<h3>Problem Solving</h3>

We know that :

  • G = gravity constant ≈ \sf{6.67 \times 10^{-11}} N.m²/kg²
  • \sf{m_X} = mass of the planet X = \sf{1.55 \times 10^{22}} kg.
  • \sf{m_Y} = mass of the planet Y = \sf{3.95 \times 10^{28}} kg.
  • r = distance between two objects = \sf{3.75 \times 10^{11}} m.

What was asked :

  • F = gravitational force = ... N

Step by step :

\sf{F = G \times \frac{m_X \times m_Y}{r^2}}

\sf{F = 6.67 \cdot 10^{-11} \times \frac{1.55 \cdot 10^{22} \cdot 3.95 \times 10^{28}}{(3.75 \times 10^{11})^2}}

\sf{F \approx \frac{40.84 \times 10^{-11 + 22 + 28}}{14.0625 \times 10^{22}}}

\sf{F \approx 2.9 \times 10^{39 - 22}}

\sf{F \approx 2.9 \times 10^{17} \: N}

<h3>Conclusion</h3>

So, the force of gravity that the asteroid and the planet have on each other approximately

\boxed{\sf{2.9 \times 10^{17} \: N}}

A cylindrical tank has a tight-fitting piston that allows the volume of the tank to be changed. The tank originally contains air
ValentinkaMS [17]

Answer:

the value of the final pressure is 0.168 atm

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

Let p₁ be initial pressure, v₁ be initial volume.

After expansion, p₂ is final pressure and v₂ is final volume.

So using the following equations;

p₁v₁ = nRT

p₂v₂ = nRT

hence, p₁v₁ = p₂v₂

we find p₂

p₂ = p₁v₁ / v₂

given that; initial volume v₁ = 0.175 m³, Initial pressure p₁ = 0.350 atm,

final volume v₂ = 0.365 m³

we substitute

p₂ = ( 0.350 atm × 0.175 m³ ) / 0.365 m³

p₂ = 0.06125 atm-m³ / 0.365 m³

p₂ = 0.168 atm

Therefore, the value of the final pressure is 0.168 atm

A wave with a period of 0.008 second has a frequency of?
tatyana61 [14]
The formula for frequency is f = 1/T where f is frequency and T is period in seconds. 
You have you period which is 0.008s and that is all you will need to solve or frequency in a wave:
f = 1/2
f = 1/0.008s
f = 125Hz
