A particle of charge 2.0 x 10^-8C experiences an upward force of magnitude 4.0 x10^-6 when it is placed in a particular point in

an electric field.
a. What is the electric field at that point?
b. If a charge q=1.0 x 10^-8 C is placed there, what is the force on it?

Answer:

a) The electric field at that point is 2.0\times 10^{2} newtons per coulomb.

b) The electric force is 2.0\times 10^{-6} newtons.

Explanation:

a) Let suppose that electric field is uniform, then the following electric field can be applied:

E = \frac{F_{e}}{q} (1)

Where:

E - Electric field, measured in newtons per coulomb.

F_{e} - Electric force, measured in newtons.

q - Electric charge, measured in coulombs.

If we know that F_{e} = 4.0\times 10^{-6}\,N and q = 2.0\times 10^{-8}\,C, then the electric field at that point is:

E = \frac{4.0\times 10^{-6}\,N}{2.0\times 10^{-8}\,C}

E = 2.0\times 10^{2}\,\frac{N}{C}

The electric field at that point is 2.0\times 10^{2} newtons per coulomb.

b) If we know that E = 2.0\times 10^{2}\,\frac{N}{C} and q = 1.0\times 10^{-8}\,C, then the electric force is:

F_{e} = E\cdot q

F_{e} = \left(2.0\times 10^{2}\,\frac{N}{C} \right)\cdot (1.0\times 10^{-8}\,C)

F_{e} = 2.0\times 10^{-6}\,N

The electric force is 2.0\times 10^{-6} newtons.

What is the main determining factor in defining boundaries between layers of earth's atmosphere?
konstantin123 [22]
The main determining factor in defining boundaries between layers of earth's atmosphere would be temperature changes in these layers. Temperature is one essential property that varies in the atmosphere. Based from this variation, the atmosphere is divided into four major layers and further to three smaller layers -  troposphere, tropopause, the stratosphere,  stratopause, the mesosphere, mesopause, and the thermosphere.The troposphere is the layer that is nearest to the surface of the Earth. It is the part where humans, plants and animals survive. Also, it is the warmest layer of the atmosphere. And as we go higher the atmosphere, the temperature would drop making it much cooler.

The electric field strength in the space between two closely spaced parallel disks is 1.0 105 N/C. This field is the result of t
balu736 [363]

Answer:

D=2.996\times 10^{-2} m

Explanation:

*Assume the parallel disks have equal diameters.

Given the electric strength as  1.0\times 10^5 N/C.  transferring 3.9\times 10^9 electrons, the disk's Area can be calculated using the formula:

E=\frac{\eta}{\epsilon_o}=\frac{Q}{A\epsilon_o}\\\\A=\frac{Q}{E\epsilon_o}\\\\=\frac{(3.9\times 10^9)\times (1.6\times10^{-19})}{(1.0\times 10^5 )\times (8.85\times10^{-12})}\\\\A=7.0508\times 10^{-4} \ m^2

#We now calculate the disks diameter:

A=\pi(D/2)^2\\\\2\sqrt{\frac{A}{\pi}}=D\\\\=2\sqrt{7.0508\times 10^{-4}/\pi}\\\\D=2.996\times 10^{-2} \ m

Hence, the diameter of the disks is D=2.996\times 10^{-2} m
