Speed, (scalar quantity), is the rate at which an object covers distance. The average speed is the distance (scalar quantity) per time ratio. Velocity is the rate at which the position changes. The average velocity is the displacement or position change (vector quantity) per time ratio.

Answer:

E1 = 10.15 * 10^4 N/C

E2 = 0

E3 = 10.15 *10^4 N/C

Explanation:

Given data:

Two 13 cm-long thin glass rods ( L ) = 0.13 m

charge (Q) = +11nC

distance between thin glass rods = 4 cm .

<u>Calculate the electric field strengths </u>

electric charge due to a single glass rod in the question ( E ) = $\frac{Q}{2\pi e_{0}rL }$

equation 1 can be used to determine E1, E2 and E3 because the points lie within the two rods hence the net electric field produced will be equal to the difference in electric fields produced

applying equation 1 to determine E1

E1 = $\frac{Q}{2\pi e_{0}rL }$ $( \frac{1}{0.01} - \frac{1}{0.03} )$ ( distance from 1 rod is 0.01 m and from the other rod is 0.03 )
