What is the risk when a pwc passes too closely behind another boat?

1 answer:

The risk when a PWC (Personal Water Craft) passes too closely behind another boat is creating a blind spot. Blind spot can create a collision.
The boat will block the view of the PWC of oncoming boats, as well as the oncoming boat's view of the PWC.So, that's why it is very important to maintain a proper lookout while turning the PWC and beware of your blind spots.

A uniform line charge of density λ lies on the x axis between x = 0 and x = L. Its total charge is 7 nC. The electric field at x

DedPeter [7]

Answer:

The electric field at x = 3L is 166.67 N/C

Solution:

As per the question:

The uniform line charge density on the x-axis for x, 0< x< L is $\lambda$

Total charge, Q = 7 nC = $7\times 10^{- 9} C$

At x = 2L,

Electric field, $\vec{E_{2L}} = 500N/C$

Coulomb constant, K = $8.99\times 10^{9} N.m^{2}/C^{2}$

Now, we know that:

$\vec{E} = K\frac{Q}{x^{2}}$

Also the line charge density:

$\lambda = \frac{Q}{L}$

Thus

Q = $\lambda L$

Now, for small element:

$d\vec{E} = K\frac{dq}{x^{2}}$

$d\vec{E} = K\frac{\lambda }{x^{2}}dx$

Integrating both the sides from x = L to x = 2L

$\int_{0}^{E}d\vec{E_{2L}} = K\lambda \int_{L}^{2L}\frac{1}{x^{2}}dx$

$\vec{E_{2L}} = K\lambda[\frac{- 1}{x}]_{L}^{2L}] = K\frac{Q}{L}[frac{1}{2L}]$

$\vec{E_{2L}} = (9\times 10^{9})\frac{7\times 10^{- 9}}{L}[frac{1}{2L}] = \frac{63}{L^{2}}$

Similarly,

For the field in between the range 2L< x < 3L:

$\int_{0}^{E}d\vec{E} = K\lambda \int_{2L}^{3L}\frac{1}{x^{2}}dx$

$\vec{E} = K\lambda[\frac{- 1}{x}]_{2L}^{3L}] = K\frac{Q}{L}[frac{1}{6L}]$

$\vec{E} = (9\times 10^{9})\frac{7\times 10^{- 9}}{L}[frac{1}{6L}] = \frac{63}{6L^{2}}$

Now,

If at x = 2L,

$\vec{E_{2L}} = 500 N/C$

Then at x = 3L:

$\frac{\vec{E_{2L}}}{3} = \frac{500}{3} = 166.67 N/C$

When the magnetic flux through a coil of wire changes, what is generated between the ends of the coil

Gnesinka [82]

How are mitosis and meiosis similar?

fiasKO [112]

First year biology.

The answer is D. Each process results in the formation of Daughter Cells, except the process of Meiosis results in half the number of Daughter Cells, where Mitosis has Daughter Cells identical to the Parent Cell.
