This question is incomplete, the complete question is;

The electric force due to a uniform external electric field causes a torque of magnitude 20.0 × 10⁻⁹ N⋅m on an electric dipole oriented at 30° from the direction of the external field. The dipole moment of the dipole is 7.5 × 10⁻¹² C⋅m.

What is the magnitude of the external electric field?

If the two particles that make up the dipole are 2.5 mm apart, what is the magnitude of the charge on each particle?

Answer:

- the magnitude of the external electric field is 5333.3 N/C

- the magnitude of the charge on each particle is 3.0 × 10⁻¹² C  ≈ 3 nC

Explanation:

Given that;

Torque = 20.0 × 10⁻⁹ N⋅m

dipole moment = 7.5 × 10⁻¹²

∅ = 30°

The moment T of restoring couple is;

T = PEsin∅

E = T/Psin∅

we substitute

E = 20.0 × 10⁻⁹ N⋅m / (7.5 × 10⁻¹²) sin(30°)

E = 20.0 × 10⁻⁹ / 3.75 × 10⁻¹²

E =  5333.3 N/C

Therefore, the magnitude of the external electric field is 5333.3 N/C

The dipole moment is given by the expression;

p = ql

q = p / l

given that l = 2.5 mm = 0.0025 m

we substitute

q = 7.5 × 10⁻¹² / 0.0025

q = 3.0 × 10⁻¹² C ≈ 3 nC

Therefore, the magnitude of the charge on each particle is 3.0 × 10⁻¹² C ≈ 3 nC

Select the correct answer.
kvasek [131]

Answer:

8.37×10⁻⁴ N/C

Explanation:

Electric Field: This is the ratio of electrostatic force to electric charge. The S.I unit of electric field is N/C.

From the question, the expression for electric field is given as,

E = F/Q.......................... Equation 1

Where E = Electric Field, F = force experienced by the charged balloon, Q = Charge on the balloon.

Given: F = 8.2×10⁻² Newton, Q = 9.8×10 Coulombs = 98 Coulombs

Substitute these values into equation 1

E = 8.2×10⁻² /98

E = 8.37×10⁻⁴ N/C

Hence the Electric Field of the charged balloon =  8.37×10⁻⁴ N/C

a bicycle uniformly from rest at time t the velocity of the bicycle is v at what time will the bicycle have a velocity of 4v​
sesenic [268]

Here

  • Acceleration and initial velocities are constant.

According to first equation of kinematics.

\\ \sf\longmapsto v=u+at

\\ \sf\longmapsto v=0+at

\\ \sf\longmapsto v=at

\\ \sf\longmapsto v\propto t

  • Time was t at velocity v
  • Time will be 4t at velocity 4v

Two children stretch a jump rope between them and send wave pulses back and forth on it. The rope is 2.6 m long, its mass is 0.5
Irina-Kira [14]

Answer:

15.13 m/s

Explanation:

The wave speed of the stretched rope can be calculated using the following formula

v = \sqrt{\frac{F_T}{\mu}}

where F_T = 44N is the tension on the rope and \mu = m/L = 0.5 / 2.6 = 0.1923 kg/m is the density of the rope per unit length

v = \sqrt{\frac{44}{0.1923}} = \sqrt{228.8} = 15.13 m/s
