The strength of the electric field at a certain distance from a point charge is represented by E. What is the strength of the el

ectric field at twice the distance from the point charge?
a.) At twice the distance, the strength of the field is E/2.
b.) At twice the distance, the strength of the field is 2E.
c.)At twice the distance, the strength of the field is 4E.
d.)At twice the distance, the strength of the field remains equal to E.
e.)At twice the distance, the strength of the field is E/4.

Answer:

e.)At twice the distance, the strength of the field is E/4.

Explanation:

The strength of the electric field at a certain distance from a point charge is given by:

E=k\frac{Q}{r^2}

where

k is the Coulomb's constant

Q is the charge

r is the distance from the point charge

In this problem, the distance from the point charge is doubled:

r' = 2r

So the new electric field strength is

E'=k\frac{Q}{(2r)^2}=k \frac{Q}{4 r^2}=\frac{1}{4} (k\frac{Q}{r^2})=\frac{E}{4}

so, at twice the distance the strength of the field is E/4.

A truck using a rope to tow a 2230-kg car accelerates from rest to 13.0 m/s in a time of 15.0s. How strong must the rope be? μk
Leokris [45]

Answer:

The rope must have a force of 10084,21 N

Explanation

Acceleration calculation

The car acceleration is equal to the acceleration of the truck

ac: car acceleration\frac{m}{s^{2} }

at: truck acceleration\frac{m}{s^{2} })

ac = at= \frac{vf-vi}{t-ti}  equation(1)

Known information:

vi = Initial speed = 0, ti = initial time = 0

vf = Final speed = 13 \frac{m}{s}, t = final time =5 s

We replaced the known information in the equation(1):

ac = at = \frac{13-0}{15-0}

ac=ac=\frac{13}{15}  \frac{m}{s}

Dynamic analysis

The forces acting on the car are the following:

Wc: Car weight

N: normal force, road force on the car

Ff: Friction force

T: Force of tension

Car weight calculation:

Wc=mc*g

mc = Car mass = 2230kg

g = Gravity acceleration=9.8 \frac{m}{s^{2} }

Wc= 2230*9.8

Wc=21854 N

Normal force calculation:

Newton's first law

sum Fy= 0

N-W=0

N=W

N=21854 N

Friction force calculation (Ff):

We have the formula to calculate the friction force:

Ff = μk * N  Equation (3)

μk kinetic coefficient of friction

We know that μk = 0.373and N= 21854N ,then:

Ff=0.373*21854

Ff=8151.54 N

Calculation of the tension force in the rope (T):

Newton's Second law

sum Fx= mc*ac

T-Ff=mc*ac

T=2230(\frac{13}{15}) + 8151.54

T=10084,21 N

Answer: The rope must have a force of 10084,21 N

Which solid state component allows a mobile phone to store data even if the battery is removed
Talja [164]

Answer:

Capacitor

Explanation:

Capacitor ; A capacitor is a passive two-terminal electrical component that can store energy in an electric field electrostatically. It works as a small rechargeable battery that stores electricity. However, unlike a battery, it can charge and discharge in the split of a second. Capacitors are widely used to build different types of electronic circuits.

A 7300 N elevator is to be given an acceleration of 0.150g by connecting it to a cable of negligible weight wrapped around a tur
Firlakuza [10]

Answer:

α =18.75  rad/s²

Explanation:

Given that

Acceleration a = 0.15 g

We know that   g =10 m/s²

a= 0.15 x 10 = 1.5  m/s²

d= 16 cm

Radius r= 8 cm

Lets take angular acceleration =α rad/s²

As we know that

a= α r

Now by putting the values

1.5 = α  x 0.08

α =18.75  rad/s²

A PERSON GETTING OUT OF MOVING BUS FALLS IN THE DIRECTION OF MOTION OF THE BUS. WHY? ​
djverab [1.8K]

Answer:

PLEASE MARK AS BRAINLIEST!!

Explanation:

A getting passenger getting down from a moving bus, falls in the direction of the motion of the bus. This is because his feet come to rest on touching the ground and the remaining body continues to move due to inertia of motion.
