Answer:

E=4.32\times 10^{5}\ N.C^{-1}

Explanation:

Given:

  • charges at the each of the three corner of a square, q_1=q_2=q_3=+3\times 10^{-6}\ C
  • side of the square, a=0.5\ m
  • charge at the remaining corner of the square, q_4=-3\times 10^{-6}\ C

<u>Distance of the center of the square from each of the vertex of square:</u>

Using Pythagoras theorem:

d^2+d^2=a^2

2d^2=0.5^2

d=0.3536\ m

As there two equal like charges at an equal distance on the opposite ends of a diagonal so they will cancel out the effect of field due to each other.

<u>Electric field at the center of the square due to </u>q_4<u>:</u>

E_4=\frac{1}{4\pi.\epsilon_0} \times \frac{q_4}{d^2}

E_4=9\times 10^9\times\frac{3\times 10^{-6}}{0.125}

E_4=216\times10^{3}\ N.C^{-1}

The charge on the opposite vertex will have the equal effect in the same direction which is towards the charge q_4. (refer the attached schematic)

<u>So, the net electric field at the center:</u>

E=2\times E_4

E=2\times 216\times 10^3

E=4.32\times 10^{5}\ N.C^{-1}

Answer:

E = 440816.32 N/C

Explanation:

Given data:

Three point charge of charge equal to +3.0 micro coulomb

fourth point charge = - 3.0 micro coulomb

side of square = 0.50 m

K =1/4 \pi \epsilon_0 = 8.99 \times 10^9 N.m^2/c^2

Due to having equal charge on center of square, 2 charge produce equal electric field at center and other two also produce electric field at center of same value

So we have

E_1 + E_3 = 0

E =E_2 + E_4

E = 2 E_2

[E_2 =\frac{2\times k \times q}{r^2}

[r= \frac{(0.5^2 + 0.5^2)^2}{2} = 0.35 m]

plugging all value

E = 2 E_2

E = 2 E_2 =\frac{2\times k \times q}{r^2}

E = \frac{2 \times 8.99 \times 10^93\times 10^{-6}}{0.35^2}

E = 440816.32 N/C

Points a and b lie in a region where the y-component of the electric field is Ey=α+β/y2. The constants in this expression have t
Drupady [299]

Answer:

V_{a} - V_{b} = 89.3

Explanation:

The electric potential is defined by

         V_{b} - V_{a} = - ∫ E .ds

In this case the electric field is in the direction and the points (ds) are also in the direction and therefore the angle is zero and the scalar product is reduced to the algebraic product.

         V_{b} - V_{a} = - ∫ E ds

We substitute

         V_{b} - V_{a} = - ∫ (α + β/ y²) dy

We integrate

          V_{b} - V_{a} = - α y + β / y

We evaluate between the lower limit A  2 cm = 0.02 m and the upper limit B 3 cm = 0.03 m

           V_{b} - V_{a} = - α (0.03 - 0.02) + β (1 / 0.03 - 1 / 0.02)

            V_{b} - V_{a} = - 600 0.01 + 5 (-16.67) = -6 - 83.33

            V_{b} - V_{a} = - 89.3 V

As they ask us the reverse case

             V_{b} - V_{a} = - V_{b} - V_{a}

             V_{a} - V_{b} = 89.3

A -0.06 charge that moves downward is in a uniform electric field with a strengthened of 200 N/C. What is the magnitude and dire
Nookie1986 [14]

Answer:

The magnitude of the force is 12 N Upwards

Explanation:

The force on a positive charge will be in the same direction as the field, but the force on a negative charge will be in the opposite direction to the field. Thus the direction of the force is upward.

Given;

magnitude of charge, q = 0.06 C

magnitude of electric field, E = 200 N/C

The magnitude of the force is given by;

F = qE

F = 0.06 x 200 N/C

F = 12 N Upwards

Therefore, the magnitude of the force is 12 N Upwards

By how much does the volume of an aluminum cube 4.00 cm on an edge increase when the cube is heated from 19.0°C to 67.0°C? The l
Genrish500 [490]

Answer:

The volume of an aluminum cube is 0.212 cm³.

Explanation:

Given that,

Edge of cube = 4.00 cm

Initial temperature = 19.0°C

Final temperature = 67.0°C

linear expansion coefficient \alpha=23.0\times10^{-6}/C^{\circ}

We need to calculate the volume expansion coefficient

Using formula of  volume expansion coefficient

\beta=3\alpha

Put the value into the formula

\beta=3\times23.0\times10^{-6}

\beta=0.000069=69\times10^{-6}/C^{\circ}

We need to calculate the volume

V= a^3

V=4^3

V=64\ cm^3

The change temperature of the cube is

\Delta T=T_{f}-T_{i}

Put the value into the formula

\Delta T=67-19 = 48^{\circ}C

We need to calculate the increases volume

Using formula of increases volume

\Delta V=V\beta\Delta T

Put the value into the formula

\Delta V=64\times69\times10^{-6}\times48

\Delta V=0.212\ cm^3

Hence, The volume of an aluminum cube is 0.212 cm³.
