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

What kinds of space and matter can light travel through
dem82 [27]

Answer:

Light travels as a wave. But unlike sound waves or water waves, it does not need any matter or material to carry its energy along. This means that light can travel through a vacuum—a completely airless space. (Sound, on the other hand, must travel through a solid, a liquid, or a gas.)

How many normal modes of oscillation or natural frequencies does each if the following have: (
Vadim26 [7]
<span>Each of these systems has exactly one degree of freedom and hence only one natural frequency obtained by solving the differential equation describing the respective motions. For the case of the simple pendulum of length L the governing differential equation is d^2x/dt^2 = - gx/L with the natural frequency f = 1/(2π) √(g/L). For the mass-spring system the governing differential equation is m d^2x/dt^2 = - kx (k is the spring constant) with the natural frequency ω = √(k/m). Note that the normal modes are also called resonant modes; the Wikipedia article below solves the problem for a system of two masses and two springs to obtain two normal modes of oscillation.</span>

zheka24 [161]

Answer:

Part A the answer is the dielectric constant.

Part B  Mica- mylar- paper- quartz

Explanation:

The capacity of a capacitor is given by

           C = ε ε₀ A / d

Where the dielectric constant (ε) is the value of the material between the plates of the capacitor, we see that as if value increases the capacity also increases.

Another magnitude that we must take into account that the maximum working voltage, the greater the safer is the capacitor

the flexibility of the material must also be taken into account

Part A the answer is the dielectric constant.

Pate B order the materials from best to worst

Mica. The best ever

Mylar Flexible

Paper Low capacity, low working voltage, flexible

Quartz high dielectric, but brittle

marishachu [46]
  • initial velocity=u=24m/s
  • Acceleration=a=4m/s^2
  • Distance=s=96m
  • Final velocity=v

Using 3rd equation of kinematics

\boxed{\Large{\sf v^2-u^2=2as}}

\\ \Large\sf\longmapsto v^2=u^2+2as

\\ \Large\sf\longmapsto v^2=24^2+2(4)(96)

\\ \Large\sf\longmapsto v^2=576+768

\\ \Large\sf\longmapsto v^2=1344

\\ \Large\sf\longmapsto v=\sqrt{1344}

\\ \Large\sf\longmapsto v=36.6m/s
