A small sphere with mass 5.00×10−7 kg and charge +8.00 μC is released from rest a distance of 0.500 m above a large horizontal i

nsulating sheet of charge that has uniform surface charge density σ = +8.00 pC/m2.
Using energy methods, calculate the speed of the sphere when it is 0.100 m above the sheet.

<span>Work done on charge is W = Eqd = σ/(2ε₀) x q x d = {(8.00 x 10⁻¹²)/(2 x 8.854187 x 10⁻¹²)} x 3.00 x 10⁻⁶ x (0.650 - 0.250) = 5.42116402J. KE of sphere = 0.5mv² = 0.5 x 5.00 x 10⁻⁷v² = work done by E-field on charge during its fall = 5.42116402→ v = 4657 m/s.</span>

Students have 4 different pairs of sunglasses, each with lenses where the polarization filter is oriented in different direction

AysviL [449]

Answer:

the lens you must select has an angle of 143º measured with respect to the horizontal, this angle is 53º with respect to the vertical.

Explanation:

The glare is caused by the reflection of light in the water, the polarization of the reflected light is polarized in a direction parallel to the surface of the water, the polarization is total for the angles

n = tan $\theta_{p}$

\theta_{p} = tan⁻¹ n

the refractive index for seawater is 1.33

\theta_{p}= tan⁻¹ 1.33

\theta_{p} = 53º

for this angle the light is totally polarized, for the other angles the polarization is partial.

Based on this, the lenses must eliminate this polarization, so its polarization direction must have 90º with respect to this polarization,

\theta_{lens} = 53 +90

\theta_{lens}= 143º

Therefore, the lens you must select has an angle of 143º measured with respect to the horizontal, this angle is 53º with respect to the vertical.

A lens that could work is one that is polarized 45º with respect to the vertical.

Answer: t = 0.492τ

Explanation: In a circuit where there is a resistor and a capacitor, the equation for a charging capacitor is given by:

$q = q_0(1 - e^{\frac{t}{RC} })$

where:

$q_0$ is the equilibrium charge

q is the charge at time t

RC is time constant also called τ (tau)

For this problem, the circuit is charged to 39%, which means: q = $0.39 q_0$

$0.39q_0 = q_0 (1 - e^\frac{-t}{RC} )$

0.39 = 1 - $e^\frac{-t}{RC}$

$e^\frac{-t}{RC}$ = 0.61

$\frac{-t}{RC}$ = ln(0.61)

-t = ln(0.61)τ

t = 0.492τ

For the condition to be met it is needed 0.492 time constants must elapse.

What is the most common feature on the far side of the Moon?

Sati [7]

The far side of the Moon is the hemisphere of the Moon that always faces away from Earth. The far side's terrain is rugged with a multitude of impact craters and relatively few flat lunar maria compared to the near side. It has one of the largest craters in the Solar System, the South Pole–Aitken basin.

A 17-kg sled is being pulled along the horizontal snow-covered ground by a horizontal force of 33 N. Starting from rest, the sle

ycow [4]

Answer:

$\mu=0.185$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Mass $m=17kg$

Force $F=33N$

Velocity $v=1.6m/s$

Distance $d= 9.8m$

Generally the equation for Work done is mathematically given by

$W=\triangle K.E+\triangle P.E$

Where

$\triangle K.E=(F-F_f)*2$

$F_f=F+\frac{\triangle K.E}{d}$

$F_f=33+\frac{0.5*17*1.6^2}{9.8}$

$F_f=30.8N$

Since

$f = \mu*m*g$

$\mu= 30.8/(m*g)$

$\mu= 30.8/(17*9.81)$

$\mu=0.185$
