Explanation:
For free body diagram see attached sheet .
W is weight of steel girder acting at the middle point of its length . T is tension in the cable .
OB = √ ( 12² - 2² )
= 11.83 m .
OC = 11.83 / 2 = 5.915 m
Taking moment of tension T and weight W about point O
W x OC = T x OB
22 x 5.915 = T x 11.83
T = 22 x 5.915 / 11.83
= 11 kN
Considering forces acting in vertical direction and equating forces in opposite direction
T + R = W
R = W - T
= 22 - 11 = 11 KN
So force of grinder on the ground = R
= 11 KN.
The electric potential difference is the electric potential energy per unit charge
Explanation:
First of all, we define the concept of electric potential. The electric potential is a measure of the gradient of the electric field at a certain point of the space. The electric potential at a distance from a positive charge of magnitude
is given by
where k is the Coulomb's constant.
Now we can define the electric potential energy and the electric potential difference:
- Electric potential energy is the energy possessed by a charge due to the presence of an electric field. For a charge of magnitude
immersed in an electric field, its potential energy is given by
, where V is the electric potential at the location of the charge.
- The electric potential difference is simply the difference in electric potential between two points in the space. For instance, if the potential at point A is V(A) and the potential at point B is V(B), then the potential difference is
The electric potential energy is also defined as the work done on a charge q moved through a potential difference of . Consequently, the potential difference
represents the work per unit charge done, i.e. the work done when moving a unitary charge through a potential difference
.
