Answer:
1. 24375 N/C
2. 2925 V
Explanation:
d = 12 cm = 0.12 m
F = 3.9 x 10^-15 N
q = 1.6 x 10^-19 C
1. The relation between the electric field and the charge is given by
F = q E
So,
E = 24375 N/C
2. The potential difference and the electric field is related by the given relation.
V = E x d
where, V be the potential difference, E be the electric field strength and d be the distance between the electrodes.
By substituting the values, we get
V = 24375 x 0.12 = 2925 Volt
Answer:
6) Wave 1 travels in the positive x-direction, while wave 2 travels in the negative x-direction.
Explanation:
What matters is the part , the other parts of the equation don't affect time and space variations. We know that when the sign is - the wave propagates to the positive direction while when the sign is + the wave propagates to the negative direction, but <em>here is an explanation</em> of this:
For both cases, + and -, after a certain time (
), the displacement <em>y</em> of the wave will be determined by the
term. For simplicity, if we imagine we are looking at the origin (x=0), this will be simply
.
To know which side, right or left of the origin, would go through the origin after a time (and thus know the direction of propagation) we have to see how we can achieve that same displacement <em>y</em> not by a time variation but by a space variation
(we would be looking where in space is what we would have in the future in time). The term would be then
, which at the origin is
. This would mean that, when the original equation has
, we must have that
for
to be equal to
, and when the original equation has
, we must have that
for
to be equal to
<em>Note that their values don't matter, although they are a very small variation (we have to be careful since all this is inside a sin function), what matters is if they are positive or negative and as such what is possible or not .</em>

In conclusion, when , the part of the wave on the positive side (
) is the one that will go through the origin, so the wave is going in the negative direction, and viceversa.
