Answer: E= KQ/r^2

Explanation: An electric field is a region where an electric charge(positive or negative ) will experience a force.

The magnitude of an electric field E, at a point is given by Coulombs law as

E/ F/q

Where F= Coulombs force exertedon the charge and q= electric charge

E= F/q=(KQq)/r^2q

E=KQ/r^2

Suppose you wanted to hold up an electron against the force of gravity by the attraction of a fixed proton some distance above i

SCORPION-xisa [38]

Answer:

The value is $r = 5.077 \ m$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The Coulomb constant is $k = 9.0 *10^{9} \ N\cdot m^2 /C^2$

The charge on the electron/proton is $e = 1.6*10^{-19} \ C$

The mass of proton $m_{proton} = 1.67*10^{-27} \ kg$

The mass of electron is $m_{electron } = 9.11 *10^{-31} \ kg$

Generally for the electron to be held up by the force gravity

Then

Electric force on the electron = The gravitational Force

i.e

$m_{electron} * g = \frac{ k * e^2 }{r^2 }$

$\frac{9*10^9 * (1.60 *10^{-19})^2 }{r^2 } = 9.11 *10^{-31 } * 9.81$

$r = \sqrt{25.78}$

$r = 5.077 \ m$

You are watching an archery tournament when you start wondering how fast an arrow is shot from the bow. Remembering your physics

valentina_108 [34]

Answer:

v = 69.82 ms^-1

Explanation:

As we know,

R = vi2 sin2Ꝋ / g

vi2 =R g / sin2 Ꝋ where R is range R = 52m, Ꝋ = 3 Degrees

vi2 = 52 x 9.8 / sin 2(3) = 4875.227

v = 69.82 ms^-1

Lidia plans an experimental investigation to see how the thickness of a lens affects the point where a beam of light is focused.

alexandr1967 [171]

Answer:

The type of light and the material of lenz.

Explanation:

1) As the investigation is based on how the thickness of a lens effect the other variable. Thickness of the lenz is independent variable. So Lidia has to experiment with the different thicknesses in order to find the effect on dependent variable.

2) As the investigation is based to find the point where the beam of light is focused. It's a dependent variable and Lidia has no control over it. So the only thing she can do is to measure and observe how it respond to the changes in independent variable.

3) For conclusion, she has to make sure that the other variables are not effecting the output or results that is the beam point where the light is focused. So she must have to kept constant the type of light and material of lenz otherwise she won't be able to discriminate the effect of thickness of lenz from other causes.

A satellite in geostationary orbit is used to transmit data via electromagnetic radiation. The satellite is at a height of 35,00

Aleksandr-060686 [28]

Answer:

Explanation:

We have the following relation between power, P and intensity, I

$I = P/(4*pi*r^2)$

= $10^3/(4*pi*(35000*10^3))$

= $6.5*10^-14 W/M^2$

We also have the following relationship between electric field and electromagnetic radiation thus

$I = (ceE^2)/2$

Hence $E = \sqrt{2I/ce}$

substituting the values of I, c and e, we have

$7*10^-6 V/m$

A ledge on a building is 18 m above the ground. A taut rope attached to a 4.0-kg can of paint sitting on the ledge passes up ove

True [87]

Answer:t=5.07 s

Explanation:

Given

height of Building h=18 m

mass of Paint can $m_1=4 kg$

mass of second can $m_2=3 kg$

let T be the Tension in the rope

For 4 kg can

$4g-T=4a$

$T=4(g-a)$ ----1

For 3 kg can

$T-3g=3a$

$T=3(g+a)$ ----2

From 1 and 2

$4(g-a)=3(g+a)$

$g=7a$

$a=\frac{g}{7}$

So time taken to cover 18 m is

$h=ut+\frac{at^2}{2}$

$18=0+\frac{g\cdot t^2}{7\times 2}$

$t^2=\frac{18\times 2\times 7}{g}$

$t=5.07 s$
