Complete Question

The diagram for this question is shown on the first uploaded image  

Answer:

a E =1.685*10^3 N/C

b E =36.69*10^3 N/C

c E = 0 N/C

d V = 6.7*10^3 V

e   V = 26.79*10^3V

f   V = 34.67 *10^3 V

g   V= 44.95*10^3 V

h    V= 44.95*10^3 V

i    V= 44.95*10^3 V

Explanation:

From the question we are given that

       The first charge q_1 = 2.00 \mu C = 2.00*10^{-6} C

       The second charge q_2 =1.00 \muC = 1.00*10^{-6}

      The first radius R_1 = 0.500m

      The second radius R_2 = 1.00m

 Generally \ Electric \ field = \frac{1}{4\pi\epsilon_0}\frac{q_1+\ q_2}{r^2}

And Potential \ Difference = \frac{1}{4\pi \epsilon_0}   [\frac{q_1 }{r}+\frac{q_2}{R_2} ]

The objective is to obtain the the magnitude of electric for different cases

And the potential difference for other cases

Considering a

                      r  = 4.00 m

           E = \frac{((2+1)*10^{-6})*8.99*10^9}{16}

                = 1.685*10^3 N/C

Considering b

           r = 0.700 m \ , R_2 > r > R_1

This implies that the electric field would be

            E = \frac{1}{4\pi \epsilon_0}\frac{q_1}{r^2}

             This because it the electric filed of the charge which is below it in distance that it would feel

            E = 8*99*10^9  \frac{2*10^{-6}}{0.4900}

               = 36.69*10^3 N/C

   Considering c

                      r  = 0.200 m

=>   r

 The electric field = 0

     This is because the both charge are above it in terms of distance so it wont feel the effect of their electric field

       Considering d

                  r  = 4.00 m

=> r > R_1 >r>R_2

Now the potential difference is

                  V =\frac{1}{4\pi \epsilon_0} \frac{q_1 + \ q_2}{r} = 8.99*10^9 * \frac{3*10^{-6}}{4} = 6.7*10^3 V

This so because the distance between the charge we are considering is further than the two charges given  

          Considering e

                       r = 1.00 m R_2 = r > R_1

                V = \frac{1}{4\pi \epsilon_0} [\frac{q_1}{r} +\frac{q_2}{R_2}  ] = 8.99*10^9 * [\frac{2.00*10^{-6}}{1.00} \frac{1.00*10^{-6}}{1.00} ] = 26.79 *10^3 V

          Considering f

              r = 0.700 m \ , R_2 > r > R_1

                      V = \frac{1}{4\pi \epsilon_0} [\frac{q_1}{r} +\frac{q_2}{R_2}  ] = 8.99*10^9 * [\frac{2.00*10^{-6}}{0.700} \frac{1.0*10^{-6}}{1.00} ] = 34.67 *10^3 V

          Considering g

             r =0.500\m , R_1 >r =R_1

   V = \frac{1}{4\pi \epsilon_0} [\frac{q_1}{r} +\frac{q_2}{R_2}  ] = 8.99*10^9 * [\frac{2.00*10^{-6}}{0.500} \frac{1.0*10^{-6}}{1.00} ] = 44.95 *10^3 V

          Considering h

                r =0.200\m , R_1 >R_1>r

  V = \frac{1}{4\pi \epsilon_0} [\frac{q_1}{R_1} +\frac{q_2}{R_2}  ] = 8.99*10^9 * [\frac{2.00*10^{-6}}{0.500} \frac{1.0*10^{-6}}{1.00} ] = 44.95 *10^3 V

           Considering i    

   r =0\ m \ , R_1 >R_1>r

  V = \frac{1}{4\pi \epsilon_0} [\frac{q_1}{R_1} +\frac{q_2}{R_2}  ] = 8.99*10^9 * [\frac{2.00*10^{-6}}{0.500} \frac{1.0*10^{-6}}{1.00} ] = 44.95 *10^3 V

Which of these statements best describes an effect of changes in Earth's magnetic field?
Sveta_85 [38]
The only statement that makes sense as to which one describes an effect of changes in Earth's magnetic field is the first one - <span>Southern lights are seen at high altitude places like Alaska.
Normally, Southern lights are seen around the South Pole, which means that it is quite odd for them to be seen in Alaska, which is near the North Pole.</span>

Can someone help me?
Cloud [144]

What do we know that might help here ?

-- Temperature of a gas is actually the average kinetic energy of its molecules.

-- When something moves faster, its kinetic energy increases.

Knowing just these little factoids, we realize that as a gas gets hotter, the average speed of its molecules increases.

That's exactly what Graph #1 shows.

How about the other graphs ?

-- Graph #3 says that as the temperature goes up, the molecules' speed DEcreases.  That can't be right.

-- Graph #4 says that as the temperature goes up, the molecules' speed doesn't change at all.  That can't be right.

-- Graph #2 says that after the gas reaches some temperature and you heat it hotter than that, the speed of the molecules starts going DOWN.  That can't be right.

A cannon fires a 0.2 kg shell with initial velocity vi = 9.2 m/s in the direction θ = 46 ◦ above the horizontal. The shell’s tra
Sedbober [7]

Answer:

∆h = 0.071 m

Explanation:

I rename angle (θ) = angle(α)

First we are going to write two important equations to solve this problem :

Vy(t) and y(t)

We start by decomposing the speed in the direction ''y''

sin(\alpha) = \frac{Vyi}{Vi}

Vyi = Vi.sin(\alpha ) = 9.2 \frac{m}{s} .sin(46) = 6.62 \frac{m}{s}

Vy in this problem will follow this equation =

Vy(t) = Vyi -g.t

where g is the gravity acceleration

Vy(t) = Vyi - g.t= 6.62 \frac{m}{s} - (9.8\frac{m}{s^{2} }) .t

This is equation (1)

For Y(t) :

Y(t)=Yi+Vyi.t-\frac{g.t^{2} }{2}

We suppose yi = 0

Y(t) = Yi +Vyi.t-\frac{g.t^{2} }{2} = 6.62 \frac{m}{s} .t- 4.9\frac{m}{s^{2} } .t^{2}

This is equation (2)

We need the time in which Vy = 0 m/s so we use (1)

Vy (t) = 0\\0=6.62 \frac{m}{s} - 9.8 \frac{m}{s^{2} } .t\\t= 0.675 s

So in t = 0.675 s  → Vy = 0. Now we calculate the y in which this happen using (2)

Y(0.675s) = 6.62\frac{m}{s}.(0.675s)-4.9 \frac{m}{s^{2} }  .(0.675s)^{2} \\Y(0.675s) =2.236 m

2.236 m is the maximum height from the shell (in which Vy=0 m/s)

Let's calculate now the height for t = 0.555 s

Y(0.555s)= 6.62 \frac{m}{s} .(0.555s)-4.9\frac{m}{s^{2} } .(0.555s)^{2} \\Y(0.555s) = 2.165m

The height asked is

∆h = 2.236 m - 2.165 m = 0.071 m
