Answer:

E1 = 10.15 * 10^4 N/C

E2 = 0

E3 = 10.15 *10^4 N/C

Explanation:

Given data:

Two 13 cm-long thin glass rods ( L ) = 0.13 m

charge (Q) = +11nC

distance between thin glass rods = 4 cm .

<u>Calculate the electric field strengths </u>

electric charge due to a single glass rod in the question ( E ) = $\frac{Q}{2\pi e_{0}rL }$

equation 1 can be used to determine E1, E2 and E3 because the points lie within the two rods hence the net electric field produced will be equal to the difference in electric fields produced

applying equation 1 to determine E1

E1 = $\frac{Q}{2\pi e_{0}rL }$ $( \frac{1}{0.01} - \frac{1}{0.03} )$ ( distance from 1 rod is 0.01 m and from the other rod is 0.03 )

= $\frac{11*10^{-9} }{2*3.14*8.85*10^{-12}*0.13 } ( 66.67 )$

= 10.15 * 10^4 N/C

applying equation 1 to determine E2

E2 = $\frac{Q}{2\pi e_{0}rL }$ $( \frac{1}{0.02} - \frac{1}{0.02} )$

therefore E2 = 0

E1 = E3

hence E3 = 10.15*10^4 N/C

Explain how the basic unit are combined to give the derived units of force, velocity, pressure and work

LuckyWell [14K]

Velocity:

Velocity is change in displacement with respect to time:

$\frac{\Delta x}{\Delta t}$

Analysing the units, meters (displacement) and seconds (time) are basic units:

$\frac{m}{s}$

Therefore the unit of velocity is m/s

Force:

Newton's second law of motion:

$F = ma$

Kilogram (mass) is a basic unit, and accelerations unit can be found using the equation:

$a=\frac{\Delta v}{\Delta t}$

Analysing the units:

$\frac{\frac{m}{s}}{s}=\frac{m}{s^2}$

Therefore, the unit of force is:

$kg\frac{m}{s^2}$

Pressure:

Pressure is given by the equation:

$P=\frac{F}{S}$ where S is area of effect, F is force

Area for a basic rectangle (geometric shape is arbitrary for dimensional analysis) is found by multiplying two lengths:

$[l^2]=m^2$ , the unit of area

Dividing the aforementioned unit of force by the unit of area:

$\frac{kg\frac{m}{s^2}}{m^2}=\frac{kg}{ms^2}$ , the unit of pressure

Work:

Work is given by the equation:

$W=\vec{F}\cdot \vec{x}$ , (dot product may be assumed as normal multiplication for the purposes of unit analysis)

Knowing displacement's (x) unit is m:

$[W]=\frac{kgm}{s^2}m=\frac{kgm^2}{s^2}$ , the unit of work.

About once every 30 minutes, a geyser known as Old Faceful projects water 11.0 m straight up into the air. Use g = 9.80 m/s^2, a

Maurinko [17]

Answer:

The speed of the water is 14.68 m/s.

Explanation:

Given that,

Time = 30 minutes

Distance = 11.0 m

Pressure = 101.3 kPa

Density of water = 1000 kg/m³

We need to calculate the speed of the water

Using equation of motion

$v^2=u^2+2gs$

Where, u = speed of water

g = acceleration due to gravity

h = height

Put the value into the formula

$0=u^2-2\times9.8\times11.0$

$u=\sqrt{2\times9.8\times11.0}$

$u=14.68\ m/s$

Hence, The speed of the water is 14.68 m/s.

A 2.00-kg block of ice is moving on a frictionless horizontal surface. At t = 0 the block is moving to the right with a velocity

enyata [817]

Answer:

Explanation:

a )

We shall apply the concept of impulse .

Impulse = force x time = change in momentum

= 5 x 4 = 2 ( V - 3 ) , where V is final velocity of the object

20 = 2V - 6

V = 13 m /s

b )

Impulse applied = - 7 x 4 = - 28 kg m/s ( negative as direction of force is opposite motion )

If v be the final velocity

2 x 3 - 28 = 2 v ( initial momentum - change in momentum = final momentum )

- 22 = 2v

v = - 11 m /s

object will move with 11 m /s in opposite direction .

g An airplane is flying through a thundercloud at a height of 1500 m. (This is a very dangerous thing to do because of updrafts,

Stolb23 [73]

Answer:

$523269.9\ \text{N/m}$

Explanation:

q = Charge

r = Distance

$q_1=25\ \text{C}$

$r_1=3000\ \text{m}$

$q_2=40\ \text{C}$

$r_2=850\ \text{m}$

The electric field is given by

$E=E_1+E_1\\\Rightarrow E=k(\dfrac{q_1}{r_1^2}+\dfrac{q_2}{r_2^2})\\\Rightarrow E=9\times 10^9\times (\dfrac{25}{3000^2}+\dfrac{40}{850^2})\\\Rightarrow E=523269.9\ \text{N/m}$

The electric field at the aircraft is $523269.9\ \text{N/m}$

A test charge is placed at a distance of 2.5 × 10-2 meters from a charge of 6.4 × 10-5 coulombs. What is the electric field at t

Novosadov [1.4K]

Using the formula: E = kQ / d² where E is the electric field, Q is the test charge in coulomb, and d is the distance.

E = kQ / d²

k = 9 x 10^9 N-m²/C²
Q = 6.4 x 10^-5 C
d = 2.5 x 10^-2 m

Substituting the given values to the equation, we have:
E = (9 x 10^9)(6.4 x 10^-5) / (2.5 x 10^-2) ²

Electric field at the test charge is 921600000 N/C
