A 11.5 nC charge is at x = 0cm and a -1.2 nC charge is at x = 3 cm ..At what position or positions on the x-axis is the electric

diamong [38]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

$q_1=11.5\ nC$ charge is placed at $x=0\ cm$

another charge of $q_2=-1.2\ nC$ is at $x=3\ cm$

We know that Electric field due to positive charge is away from it and Electric field due to negative charge is towards it.

so net electric field is zero somewhere beyond negatively charged particle

Electric Field due to $q_2$ at some distance r from it

$E_2=\frac{kq_2}{r^2}$

Now Electric Field due to $q_1$ is

$E_1=\frac{kq_1}{(3+r)^2}$

Now $E_1+E_2=0$

$\frac{k\times 11.5}{(r+3)^2}\frac{k\times (-1.2)}{r^2}=0$

$\frac{3+r}{r}=(\frac{11.5}{1.2})^{0.5}$

$\frac{3+r}{r}=3.095$

thus $r=1.43\ cm$

Thus Electric field is zero at some distance r=1.43 cm right of $q_2$

Steam at 75 kPa and 8 percent quality is contained in a spring-loaded piston–cylinder device, as shown in Figure, with an initia

Rashid [163]

The heat transferred to and the work produced by the steam during this process is 13781.618 kJ/kg

<h3>How to calcultae the heat?</h3>

The Net Change in Enthalpy will be:

= m ( h2 - h1 ) = 11.216 ( 1755.405 - 566.78 ) = 13331.618 kJ/kg

Work Done (Area Under PV curve) = 1/2 x (P1 + P2) x ( V1 - V2)

= 1/2 x ( 75 + 225) x (5 - 2)

W = 450 KJ

From the First Law of Thermodynamics, Q = U + W

So, Heat Transfer = Change in Internal Energy + Work Done

= 13331.618 + 450

Q = 13781.618 kJ/kg

Water at 15°C is to be discharged from a reservoir at a rate of 18 L/s using two horizontal cast iron pipes connected in series

Zina [86]

Answer:

0.245 m^3/s

Explanation:

Flow rate through pipe a is 0.4 m3/s Parallel pipes have a diameter D = 30 cm => r = 15 cm = 0.15 m Length of Pipe a = 1000m Length of Pipe b = 2650m Temperature = 15 degrees Va = V / A = (0.4m3/s) / (3.14 (0.15m)^2) = 5.66 m/s h = (f(LV^2)) / D2g (fa(LaVa^2)) / Da2g = (fb(LbVb^2)) / Da2g and Da = Db; fa = fb LaVa^2 = LbVb^2 => La/Lb = Vb^2/Va^2 Vd^2 = Va^2(La/Lb) => Vb = Va(La/Lb)^(1/2) Vb = 5.66 (1000/2650)^(1/2) => 5.66 x 0.6143 = 3.4769 m/s Vb = 3.4769 m/s V = AVb = 3.14(0.15)^2 x 3.4769 m/s = 0.245 m^3/s
