Answer:

The Electric Force on Negative Charge is 2.968 N

Explanation:

charge on each corner, q = 2.38 micro coulomb

Side of square, a = 75.2 cm

Coulombic constant, K = 8.98755 x 10^9 Nm²/C²

sides of the square are A,B,C and D

and all sides of a square are equal so

AB = BC = CD = DA = 75.2 cm = 0.752 m

Diagonal, AC = BD = 1.414 x 0.752 = 1.06 m

Electric field at D due to charge at A

EA= Kq÷AB^2

= 8.98755×10^9 × 9.87×10^-6 ÷ 0.752^2

EA= 156863.82 N/C

Similarly Electric field at D due to charge C

EC=Kq÷CD^2

= 8.98755×10^9 ×9.87×10^-6 ÷ 0.752^2

EC= 156863.82 N/C

Electric field at D due to charge at BB

EB=Kq÷BD^2

EB=8.98755×10^9 × 9.87×10^-6 ÷ 1.06^2

EB=78949.01 N/C

Resolve the compoents

Ex = EA + EB cos 45

Ex = 156863.82 + 78949.01 x 0.707

Ex = 212689.2 N/C

Ey = EC + EB Sin 45

Ey = 156863.82 + 78949.01 x 0.707

Ey = 212689.2 N/C

The resultant electric field is

E = 1.414 x 212689.2 = 300787.95 N/C

the electric force on the negative charge is

F = q x E

F = 9.87 x 10^-6 x 300787.95

F = 2.968 N

You are riding in a hot air balloon that, relative to the ground, has a velocity of 6.0 m/s due east. You see a hawk moving dire
charle [14.2K]

Answer:Velocity = 6.325m/s

Directional angle= 18.43°

Explanation:

Using Right angle triangle

Let Velocity of ballon&hawk be VHB represent the height of the triangle.

Let Velocity of balloon angle ground be VBG represent adjacent of the triangle.

Let Velocity of hawk and ground BE VHG represent the hypothesis.

Theta = opp/Adj= VHB/VBG

using pythagorean

VHG= SQRT(VHB^2+VBG^2)

VHG= sqrt(2^2+6^2)

VHG= sqrt(4+36)

VHG= 6.325m/s

Tan theta= 2/6

Tan theta =0.3333

Tan^-1 0.3333=18.43°

Using Gauss's law, calculate the electric field at a point distance s from a long wire bearing uniform charge density. i need he
11111nata11111 [884]

Answer:

E = 2k  \frac{\lambda}{ r}

Explanation:

Gauss's law states that the electric flux equals the wax charge between the dielectric permeability.

We must define a Gaussian surface that takes advantage of the symmetry of the problem, let's use a cylinder with the faces perpendicular to the line of charge. Therefore the angle between the cylinder side area has the same direction of the electric field which is radial.

            Ф = ∫ E . dA = E ∫ dA = q_{int} /ε₀

tells us that the linear charge density is

            λ = q_ {int} /l

            q_ {int} = l λ

we substitute

            E A = l λ /ε₀

is area of ​​cylinder is

           A = 2π r l

we substitute

            E = \frac{ l \ \lambda}{ \epsilon_o \ 2\pi  \ r \ l }

             E = \frac{\lambda}{ 2\pi  \epsilon_o \ r}

the amount

            k = 1 / 4πε₀

            E = 2k  \frac{\lambda}{ r}
