Answer:

0.109 m (10.9 cm)

Explanation:

The weight of the airplane hanging from the rubber band is given by the product between its mass (0.5 kg) and the acceleration due to gravity (g=9.8 m/s^2):

W=mg=(0.5 kg)(9.8 m/s^2)=4.9 N

This is the force that stretches the rubber band, according to Hook's law:

F=kx

where

k = 45 N/m is the spring constant

x is the stretching of the spring with respect to its equilibrium position

Substituting F = 4.9 N and re-arranging the formula, we get:

x=\frac{F}{x}=\frac{4.9 N}{45 N/m}=0.109 m=10.9 cm

A horizontal sheet of negative charge has a uniform electric field E = 3000N/C. Calculate the electric potential at a point 0.7m
vesna_86 [32]

Answer:

Electric potential, E = 2100 volts

Explanation:

Given that,

Electric field, E = 3000 N/C

We need to find the electric potential at a point 0.7 m above the surface, d = 0.7 m

The electric potential is given by :

V=E\times d

V=3000\ N/C\times 0.7\ m

V = 2100 volts

So, the electric potential at a point 0.7 m above the surface is 2100 volts. Hence, this is the required solution.
