What is the strength of the electric field in a region where the electric potential is constant?

Physics
1 answer:
Roman55 [17]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Where the electric potential is constant, the strength of the electric field is zero.

Explanation:

As a test charge moves in a given direction, the rate of change of the electric potential of the charge gives the potential gradient whose negative value is the same as the value of the electric field. In other words, the negative of the slope or gradient of electric potential (V) in a direction, say x, gives the electric field (Eₓ) in that direction. i.e

Eₓ = - dV / dx        ----------(i)

From equation (i) above, if electric potential (V) is constant, then the differential (which is the electric field) gives zero.

<em>Therefore, a constant electric potential means that electric field is zero.</em>

iren2701 [21]

Answer: g = 10.0 m/s/s

Explanation:

For a simple pendulum, provided that the angle between the lowest and highest point of  his trajectory be small, the oscillation period is given by the following expression:

T = 2π √L/g , where L = pendulum length, g= accelleration of gravity.

We can also define the period, as the time needed to complete a full swing, so from the measured  values, we can conclude the following :

T = 140 sec/ 101 cycles = 1.39 sec

Equating both definitions for T, we can solve for g, as follows:

g = 4 π² L / T² = 4π². 0.49 m / (1.39)² = 10.0 m/s/s

During a plane showcase, a pilot makes circular "looping" with a speed equal to the sound speed (340 m/s). However, the pilot ca
Dmitriy789 [7]

Answer:

1472.98 m

Explanation:

Data provided:

Speed of circular looping, v = 340 m/s

Acceleration, a = 8g

here,

g is the acceleration due to the gravity = 9.81 m/s²

Now,

the centripetal acceleration is given as,

a=\frac{v^2}{r}

r is the radius of the loop

on substituting the respective values, we get

8\times9.81=\frac{340^2}{r}

or

r = 1472.98 m

We know that the Moon revolves around Earth during a period of 27.3 days. The average distance from the center of Earth to the c
PtichkaEL [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

This is a circular motion questions

Where the oscillation is 27.3days

Given radius (r)=3.84×10^8m

Circular motion formulas

V=wr

a=v^2/r

w=θ/t

Now, the moon makes one complete oscillation for 27.3days

Then, one complete oscillation is 2πrad

Therefore, θ=2πrad

Then 27.3 days to secs

1day=24hrs

1hrs=3600sec

Therefore, 1day=24×3600secs

Now, 27.3days= 27.3×24×3600=2358720secs

t=2358720secs

Now,

w=θ/t

w=2π/2358720 rad/secs

Now,

V=wr

V=2π/2358720 ×3.84×10^8

V=1022.9m/s

Then,

a=v^2/r

a=1022.9^2/×3.84×10^8

a=0.0027m/s^2

1) A train accelerates from 36 km/hr to 54 km/hr in 10<br> s. Find acceleration?
Crank

Answer: Given:

Initial velocity= 36km/h=36x5/18=10m/s

Final velocity =54km/h=54x5/18=15m/s

Time =10sec

Acceleration = v-u/ t

=15-10/10=5/10=1/2=0.5 m/s2

Distance =s=?

From second equation of motion:

S=ut +1/2 at^2

=10*10+1/2*0.5*10*10

=100+25

=125m

So distance travelled 125m

Hope it helps you
