Answer:
The x-component of the electric field at the origin = -11.74 N/C.
The y-component of the electric field at the origin = 97.41 N/C.
Explanation:
<u>Given:</u>
- Charge on first charged particle,
- Charge on the second charged particle,
- Position of the first charge =
- Position of the second charge =
The electric field at a point due to a charge at a point distance away is given by
where,
- = Coulomb's constant, having value
- = position vector of the point where the electric field is to be found with respect to the position of the charge .
- = unit vector along .
The electric field at the origin due to first charge is given by
is the position vector of the origin with respect to the position of the first charge.
Assuming, are the units vectors along x and y axes respectively.
Using these values,
The electric field at the origin due to the second charge is given by
is the position vector of the origin with respect to the position of the second charge.
Using these values,
The net electric field at the origin due to both the charges is given by
Thus,
x-component of the electric field at the origin = -11.74 N/C.
y-component of the electric field at the origin = 97.41 N/C.
Answer:
a) [volts] = [N m / C],
b) The lines or surface that has the same potential are called equipotential
c) the equipotential lines must also be perpendicular to the electric field lines
Explanation:
a) find the units of the volt
the electric potential energy is
V = k q / r
V = [N m² / C²] C / m
V = [N m / C]
The electric potential is defined as
V = E .s
V = [N / C] [m]
V = [N m / C] = [volt]
we see that in the two expressions the same result is obtained therefore the volt is
[volts] = [N m / C]
b) The lines or surface that has the same potential are called equipotential surfaces, the great utility of these lines or surfaces is that a face can be displaced on it without doing work.
c) The electric potential is defined as the gradient of the electric field
v =
therefore the equipotential lines must also be perpendicular to the electric field lines

i hope this helps to future test takers. i took the test and had to retake it because their wasn't an answer
Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity as a function of time. For example a car traveling at 50 km/hr starts to accelerate, 10 seconds after, its speed changes to 100 km/hr then the acceleration of the car during the time can be calculated as below: initial speed = 50 km/hr.
