Wavelength is represented by lambda( $\lambda$ )

$\\ \bull\tt\longmapsto \lambda=\dfrac{c}{v}$

C is speed of light in air.
v is the frequency.

It has unit as meter(m)

Answer:

Maximum linear charge density = 84.14 nC/m

Explanation:

Looking at this question, The electric field of a line charge of infinite length is given by : Er = (1/(2πεo)) x (λ/r)

r = the distance from the center of the line of charge

λ = the linear charge density of the wire.

Now looking at the equatiom, due to the fact that Er varies inveresely with r, its maximum value will occur at the surface of the wire where r = R, the radius of the wire:

And so, Emax = (1/(2πεo)) x (λ/R)

Let's make λ the subject of the equation and we get;

λ = 2πεo(REmax)

From the question, R = 0.55/2 = 0.275cm

Also, Emax = 5.50 × 10^(6) N/C

Let's take the value of the electric constant to be εo = 8.854 x 10^(-9) C^(2) / Nm^2

R = 0.275mm = 0.000275m

Plugging these values into the equation, we get;

λ = 2π x 8.854 x 10^(-12) x 0.000275 x 5.50 × 10^(6) = 84.14 nC/m

1. ¿Qué presión se ejerce sobre cada una de las cuatro patas de una mesa si su masa es de 20 kg y

mestny [16]

Tenemos.

Masa de la mesa = 20kg
Masa encima = 10kg
Masa total = 30kg
Area de cada pata = 20cm² = 20cm² * 1/10000cm² * 1m² =0,002m²

Presió(P)n que se ejerce sobre cada pata.

P =F/A
P = Masa por gravedad/A Masa = 30kg Gravedad =9,8m/s²
P =(30kg * 9,8m/s²)/0,002m²
P = 294kg * m/s²/0,002m² Pero kg *m/s² = Nw
P = 294Nw0,002m²
P = 147000 Nw/m² Pero Nw/m² = pa
p =1,47 * 10⁵ pa

Respuesta.
La presión que se ejerce sobre cada pata es de 1,47 * 10⁵pa

Two identical tiny spheres of mass m =2g and charge q hang from a non-conducting strings, each of length L = 10cm. At equilibriu

Citrus2011 [14]

Answer:

0.247 μC

Explanation:

As both sphere will be at the same level at wquilibrium, the direction of the electric force will be on the x axis. As you can see in the picture below, the x component of the tension of the string of any of the spheres should be equal to the electric force of repulsion. And its y component will be equal to the weight of one sphere. We can use trigonometry to find the components of the tensions:

$F_y: T_y - W = 0\\T_y = m*g = 0.002 kg *9.81m/s^2 = 0.01962 N$

$T_y = T_*cos(50)\\T = \frac{T_y}{cos(50)} = 0.0305 N$

$T_x = T*sin(50) = 0.0234 N$

The electric force is given by the expression:

$F = k*\frac{q_1*q_2}{r^2}$

In equilibrium, the distance between the spheres will be equal to 2 times the length of the string times sin(50):

$r = 2*L*sin(50) = 2 * 0.1m * sin(50) 0.1532 m$

And k is the coulomb constan equal to 9 *10^9 N*m^2/C^2. q1 y q2 is the charge of each particle, in this case, they are equal.

$F_x = T_x - F_e = 0\\T_x = F_e = k*\frac{q^2}{r^2}$

$q = \sqrt{T_x *\frac{r^2}{k}} = \sqrt{0.0234 N * \frac{(0.1532m)^2}{9*10^9 N*m^2/C^2} } = 2.4704 * 10^-7 C$

A chemical equation lists NaHCO3(s) as a reactant. What does (s) indicate?

Ostrovityanka [42]

Answer:

The (s) indicates that the state of matter for NaHCO3 is solid.

Explanation:

When a chemical reaction is written, the state of matter for each components of the reactants and products are mentioned in brackets along with their names or formulas.

For example, NaHCO3 has (s) mentioned in the brackets. The s shows that the state of matter for NaHCO3. (l) represents liquid format. (g) represents that the state of matter is gas.
