Answer:

23.1 N/C

Explanation:

OP = 3 m , OQ = 4 m

PQ = \sqrt{4^{2}+3^{2}}=5 m

q = - 8 nC, Q = 75 nC

Electric field at P due to the charge Q is

E_{1}=\frac{KQ}{PQ^{2}}=\frac{9\times 10^{9}\times 75\times 10^{-9}}{25}=27 N/C

Electric field at P due to the charge q is

E_{2}=\frac{Kq}{PO^{2}}=\frac{9\times 10^{9}\times 8\times 10^{-9}}{9}=8 N/C

According to the diagram, tanθ = 3/4

Resolve the components of E1 along x axis and along y axis.

So, Electric field along X axis, Ex = - E1 Cos θ

Ex = - 27 x 4 / 5 = - 21.6 N/C

Electric field along y axis, Ey = E1 Sinθ - E2

Ey = 27 x 3 /5 - 8 = 8.2 N/C

The resultant electric field at P is given by

E=\sqrt{E_{x}^{2}+E_{y}^{2}}=\sqrt{(-21.6)^{2}+(8.2)^{2}}=23.1 N/C

Electrical energy is used to turn the blades of a fan. The amount of energy transformed is seen here : 750 J electrical energy i
Charra [1.4K]

Electrical energy is used to run the fan

Here as per given condition 750 J of electrical energy is used to run the fan which is converted into Kinetic energy as 400 J

So here we can see that 350 J of energy is lost against many other type of frictional and resistive loses.

So here we can say that out of 750 J of energy only 400 J is used to run the fan and rest amount of energy is lost against friction.

also we can say that efficiency of this fan will be

\eta = \frac{Useful}{Total}

\eta = \frac{400}{750}

\eta = \frac{8}{25}

A square sheet of rubber has sides that are 20 cm long. What is the area of the square of rubber in cm squared?
Alinara [238K]

Answer:

400cm^2

Explanation:

sides are 20cm long Area for a square is a squared

since all the lides are of equal length you can just choose one side.

20squared is 400

20 x 20 = 400cm squared

Hope this helps :)
