Two charged particles are located on the x axis. The first is a charge 1Q at x 5 2a. The second is an unknown charge located at

x 5 13a. The net electric field these charges produce at the origin has a magnitude of 2keQ /a2. Explain how many values are possible for the unknown charge and find the possible values.

Answer:

Q_2 = +/- 295.75*Q

Explanation:

Given:

- The charge of the first particle Q_1 = +Q

- The second charge = Q_2

- The position of first charge x_1 = 2a

- The position of the second charge x_2 = 13a

- The net Electric Field produced at origin is E_net = 2kQ / a^2

Find:

Explain how many values are possible for the unknown charge and find the possible values.

Solution:

- The Electric Field due to a charge is given by:

                               E = k*Q / r^2

Where, k: Coulomb's Constant

            Q: The charge of particle

            r: The distance from source

- The Electric Field due to charge 1:

                               E_1 = k*Q_1 / r^2

                               E_1 = k*Q / (2*a)^2

                               E_1 = k*Q / 4*a^2

- The Electric Field due to charge 2:

                               E_2 = k*Q_2 / r^2

                               E_2 = k*Q_2 / (13*a)^2

                               E_2 = +/- k*Q_2 / 169*a^2

- The two possible values of charge Q_2 can either be + or -. The Net Electric Field can be given as:

                               E_net = E_1 + E_2

                               2kQ / a^2 = k*Q_1 / 4*a^2 +/- k*Q_2 / 169*a^2

- The two equations are as follows:

        1:                   2kQ / a^2 = k*Q / 4*a^2 + k*Q_2 / 169*a^2

                               2Q = Q / 4 + Q_2 / 169

                               Q_2 = 295.75*Q

        2:                    2kQ / a^2 = k*Q / 4*a^2 - k*Q_2 / 169*a^2

                               2Q = Q / 4 - Q_2 / 169

                               Q_2 = -295.75*Q

- The two possible values corresponds to positive and negative charge Q_2.

Uma carga puntiforme de + 3,0uC é colocada em um ponto P de um campo elétrico gerado por uma partícula eletrizada com carga desc
expeople1 [14]

Responda:

1) E = 6 × 10 ^ 6NC ^ -1 2) Q = 6 × 10 ^ -5

Explicação:

Dado o seguinte:

Carga (q) = 3uC = 3 × 10 ^ -6C

Força elétrica (Fe) = 18N

Intensidade do campo elétrico (E) =?

1)

Lembre-se:

Força elétrica (Fe) = carga (q) * Intensidade do campo elétrico (E)

Fe = qE; E = Fe / q

E = 18N / (3 × 10 ^ -6C)

E = 6N / 10 ^ -6C

E = 6 × 10 ^ 6NC ^ -1

2)

Lembre-se:

E = kQ / r ^ 2

E = intensidade do campo elétrico

Q = carga de origem

r = distância de espera = 30cm = 30/100 = 0,3m

K = 9,0 × 10 ^ 9

6 × 10 ^ 6 = (9,0 × 10 ^ 9 * Q) / 0,3 ^ 2

9,0 × 10 ^ 9 * Q = 6 × 10 ^ 6 * 0,09

Q = 0,54 × 10 ^ 6 / 9,0 × 10 ^ 9

Q = 0,06 × 10 ^ (6-9)

Q = 0,06 × 10 ^ -3

Q = 6 × 10 ^ -5 = 60 × 10 ^ -6 = 60μC

In a cyclic process, a gas performs 123 J of work on its surroundings per cycle. What amount of heat, if any, transfers into or
Margaret [11]

Answer:

123 J transfer into the gas

Explanation:

Here we know that 123 J work is done by the gas on its surrounding

So here gas is doing work against external forces

Now for cyclic process we know that

\Delta U = 0

so from 1st law of thermodynamics we have

dQ = W + \Delta U

dQ = W

so work done is same as the heat supplied to the system

So correct answer is

123 J transfer into the gas
