Hi there!

Recall that:
\Delta V = -\int\limits^a_b {E \cdot } \, dx

Given an electric field, the potential difference can be solved by using integration. Similarly:
E = -\frac{dV}{dx}

We can differentiate the electric potential equation to solve for the electric field.

Use the power rule:
\frac{dy}{dx} x^n = nx^{n - 1}

Differentiate the given equation.

-\frac{dV}{dx}\frac{7}{x^2} =- \frac{dV}{dx}7x^{-2} = -(-14x^{-3}) = \frac{14}{x^3}

Or:
\boxed{E(x) = \frac{14}{x^3}}

A bucket filled with water has a mass of 54 kg and is hanging from a rope that is wound around a 0.050 m radius stationary cylin
Lubov Fominskaja [6]

Answer:

The magnitude of the torque the bucket produces around the center of the cylinder is 26.46 N-m.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of bucket = 54 kg

Radius = 0.050 m

We need to calculate the magnitude of the torque the bucket produces around the center of the cylinder

Using formula of torque

\tau=F\times r

\tau=mg\times r

Where, m = mass

g = acceleration due to gravity

r = radius

Put the value into the formula

\tau=54\times9.8\times0.050

\tau=26.46\ N-m

Hence, The magnitude of the torque the bucket produces around the center of the cylinder is 26.46 N-m.

Since vectors always have positive magnitudes, the sum of two vectors must have a magnitude greater than the magnitude of either
Natasha2012 [34]

Answer:

False.

Explanation:

Yes the magnitude of a vector is always positive , but a vector consists of

  • magnitude
  • direction

when two vectors are added their direction may be opposite to each other For example-

a=3i+3j

b=3i-6j ,

then their resultant

r=b+a\\r=3i+3j+3i-6j\\r=6i-3j

This resultant vector's x and y component equal to y and x component of vector b so its magnitude will be equal to magnitude of vector b.

Therefore, the resultant magnitude not necessary equal to the magnitude of either vector.

A baseball is thrown at an angle of 20° relative to the ground at a speed of 25 m/s if the ball was caught 50 m from the thrower
scoray [572]

Answer:

2.1 s

Explanation:

The motion of the ball is a projectile motion. We know that the horizontal range of the ball is

d = 50 m

And that the initial speed of the ball is

u=25 m/s

at an angle of

\theta=20^{\circ}

So, the horizontal speed of the ball (which is constant during the entire motion) is

u_x = u cos \theta = 25 \cdot cos 20^{\circ} = 23.5 m/s

And since the horizontal range is 50 m, the time taken for the ball to cover this distance was

t=\frac{d}{u_x}=\frac{50}{23.5}=2.1 s

which is the time the ball spent in air.
