Answer:

C. amount of charge on the source charge.

Explanation:

Electric field lines can be defined as a graphical representation of the vector field or electric field.

Basically, it was first introduced by Michael Faraday and it is typically a curve drawn to the tangent of a point is in the direction of the net field acting on each point.

The number, or density, of field lines on a source charge indicate the amount of charge on the source charge. Therefore, the density of field lines on a source charge is directly proportional to quantity of charge on the source.

At what distance along the z-axis is the electric field strength a maximum?

Lesechka [4]

The axial field is the integration of the field from each element of charge around the ring. Because of symmetry, the field is only in the direction of the axis. The field from an element ds in the ring is

dE = (qs*ds)cos(T)/(4*pi*e0)*(x^2 + R^2) 

where x is the distance along the axis from the plane of the ring, R is the radius of the ring, qs is the linear charge density, T is the angle of the field from the x-axis. 

However, cos(T) = x/sqrt(x^2 + R^2) 

so the equation becomes 

dE = (qs*ds)*[x/sqrt(x^2 + R^2)]/(4*pi*e0)*(x^2 + R^2) 

dE =[qs*ds/(4*pi*e0)]*x/(x^2 + R^2)^1.5 

Integrating around the ring you get 

E = (2*pi*R/4*pi*e0)*x/(x^2 + R^2)^1.5 

E = (R/2*e0)*x*(x^2 + R^2)^-1.5 

we differentiate wrt x, the term R/2*e0 is a constant K, and the derivative is 

dE/dx = K*{(x^2 + R^2)^-1.5 +x*[(-1.5)*(x^2 + R^2)^-2.5]*2x} 

dE/dx = K*{(x^2 + R^2)^-1.5 - 3*x^2*(x^2 + R^2)^-2.5} 

to find the maxima set this = 0, giving 

(x^2 + R^2)^-1.5 - 3*x^2*(x^2 + R^2)^-2.5 = 0 

mult both side by (x^2 + R^2)^2.5 to get 

(x^2 + R^2) - 3*x^2 = 0 

-2*x^2 + R^2 = 0 

-2*x^2 = -R^2 

x = (+/-)R/sqrt(2)

If an amount of heat Q is needed to increase the temperature of a solid metal sphere of diameter D from 4°C to 7°C, the amount o

Hitman42 [59]

Answer:

Q = c M ΔT where c is the heat capacity and M the mass present

Q2 / Q1 = M2 / M1 since the other factors are the same

M = ρ V where ρ is the density

M = ρ Π (d / 2)^2 where d is the diameter of the sphere

M2 / M1 = (2 D/2)^2 / (D/2)^2 = 4

It will take 4Q heat to heat the second sphere

For this problem, let's use the approach of dimensional analysis. This technique is done by cancelling out like units that appear both on the numerator and the denominator side. As a result, this technique will let you know that your final answer conforms to what parameter is asked. In this case, the final answer should be in kJ. We use the conversion: 1000 cal = 4.184 kJ The solution is as follows:

6.95×10⁵ cal * 4.184 kJ/1000 cal = 2,907.88 kJ
