9. From this lab, we learn that the electric field and electric potential depend on both, the magnitude of the source charge (q)

, and the distance from the source charge (r). If we were to increase the magnitude of our source charge from 1 nC to 5 nC, then the magnitudes of the electric field and electric potential would be ____.(you can test this on the animation by dragging five 1 nC charges on top of each other and measuring E and V at a distance of 1 m)

VARVARA [1.3K]2 years ago
5 0

Answer:

the electric field and the electric potential increase 5 times

Explanation:

The electric field created by a point charge is

         E = k q / r²

in this case the charge changes from q₁ = 1 10⁺⁰ C to q₂ = 5 10⁻⁹ C

with the electric field is proportional to the charge

         E₅ = 5 E₁

the electrical power for a point charge is

         V = k q / r

as the electric power is proportional to the charge

         V₅ = 5 V₁

consequently both the electric field and the electric potential increase 5 times

From a lake, water is pumped at a rate of 67 L/s to a storage tank positioned 14 m above while consuming 16.4 kW of electrical p
LenaWriter [7]

Answer:

57 %

Explanation:

input power = 16.4 kW = 16.4 x 10^3 W = 16400 W

Water pumped per second = 67 L/s

Mass of water pumped per second, m = Volume of water pumped epr second x density of water

m = 67 x 10^-3 x 1000 = 67 kg/s

height raised, h = 14 m

Output Power = m x g x h / t = 67 x 10 x 14 = 9380 W

efficiency = output power / input power = 9380 / 16400 = 0.57

% efficiency = 57 %

thus, the efficiency of the pump is 57 %.

You push your couch a distance of 3.9 m across the living room floor with a horizontal force of 220.0 n. the force of friction i
Mrac [35]

The general formula to calculate the work is:

W=Fd \cos \theta

where F is the force, d is the displacement of the couch, and \theta is the angle between the direction of the force and the displacement. Let's apply this formula to the different parts of the problem.


(a) Work done by you: in this case, the force applied is parallel to the displacement of the couch, so \theta=0^{\circ} and \cos \theta=1, therefore the work is just equal to the product between the horizontal force you apply to push the couch and the distance the couch has been moved:

W=Fd=(220.0 N)(3.9 m)=858 J


(b) work done by the frictional force: the frictional force has opposite direction to the displacement, therefore \theta=180^{\circ} and \cos \theta=-1. Therefore, we must include a negative sign when we calculate the work done by the frictional force:

W=-Fd=-(144.0 N)(3.9 m)=-561.6 J


(c) The work done by gravity is zero. In fact, gravity (which points downwards) is perpendicular to the displacement of the couch (which is horizontal), therefore \theta=90^{\circ} and \cos \theta=0: this means

W=0.


(d) Work done by the net force:

The net force is the difference between the horizontal force applied by you and the frictional force:

F=220 N-144 N=76 N

And the net force is in the same direction of the displacement, so \theta=0^{\circ} and \cos \theta=1 and the work done is

W=Fd=(76 N)(3.9 m)=296.4 J

38. You are fishing and catch a fish with a mass of
adoni [48]

Answer:

1.7333333m/s²

Explanation:

Tension of the line = the weight + force from pulling up the fish

30N = mg + ma

30 = (6)(9.8) + (6)a

10.4 = 6a

∴ a = 1.7333333m/s²

A man weighing 720 N and a woman weighing 500 N have the same momentum. What is the ratio of the man's kinetic energy Km to that
tiny-mole [99]

Answer:

Because weight W = M g, the ratio of weights equals the ratio of masses.

(M_m g)/ (M_w g) = [ (p^2 Man )/ (2 K_man)] / [ (p^2 Woman )/ (2 K_woman)

but p's are equal, so

K_m/K_m = (M_w g)/(M_m g) = W_woman / W_man = 450/680 = 0.662Explanation:
