Explain why an equation may be homogenous with respect to its unit but still be incorrect

1 answer:

6 0

When both sides of an equation give the same units, same numerical values, and same concept we refer to the equation as being correct. ... Removing constants from correct equations make them homogeneous but incorrect.

Answer:

A.The positive z-direction

Explanation:

We are given that

Linear charge density of long line which is located on the x-axis= $\lambda_1$

Linear charge density of another long line which is located on the y-axis= $\lambda_2$

We have to find the direction of electric field at z=a on the positive z-axis if $\lambda_1$ and $\lambda_2$ are positive.

The direction of electric field at z=a on the positive z-axis is positive z-direction .

Because $\lambda_1$ and $\lambda_2$ are positive and the electric field is applied away from the positive charge.

Hence, option A is true.

Explanation:

We must remember that torque is defined as the product of a force by a distance. This distance is measured from the point of application of force to the center of rotation of the rotating body.

The force is equal to the product of mass by gravitational acceleration.

$F=m*g\\F=70*9.81\\F=686.7[N]$
