Eac of the two Straight Parallel Lines Each of two very long, straight, parallel lines carries a positive charge of 24.00 m C/m.

The distance d between both lines is 4.10 m. What is the magnitude of the electric field at a point equidistant from the lines, with a distance 2d from both lines?

Answer:

The magnitude of the electric field at a point equidistant from the lines is $4.08\times10^{5}\ N/C$

Explanation:

Given that,

Positive charge = 24.00 μC/m

Distance = 4.10 m

We need to calculate the angle

Using formula of angle

$\theta=\sin^{-1}(\dfrac{\dfrac{d}{2}}{2d})$

$\theta=\sin^{-1}(\dfrac{1}{4})$

$\theta=14.47^{\circ}$

We need to calculate the magnitude of the electric field at a point equidistant from the lines

Using formula of electric field

$E=\dfrac{2k\lambda}{r}\times2\cos\theat$

Put the value into the formula

$E=\dfrac{2\times9\times10^{9}\times24.00\times2\times10^{-6}\cos14.47}{2.05}$

$E=408094.00\ N/C$

$E=4.08\times10^{5}\ N/C$

Hence, The magnitude of the electric field at a point equidistant from the lines is $4.08\times10^{5}\ N/C$

A puck of mass m = 0.085 kg is moving in a circle on a horizontal frictionless surface. It is held in its path by a massless str

Rina8888 [55]

Answer:

T = 11.93 N

Explanation:

Newton's second law to the puck in the circular path

∑F = m*a Formula (1)

∑F : algebraic sum of the forces in radial direccion (N)

m : puck mass (kg)

a : radial acceleration of the puck (m/s²)

Data:

m = 0.085 kg

L = 0.72 m = R : radium of the circular path (m)

θ= one revolution = 2Π rad

t= 0.45 s

Angular speed of the puck

ω = θ/t

ω = 1 rev/0.45 s = (2π/0.45) rad/s

ω = 13.96 rad /s

Radial acceleration or centripetal

a = ω²*R

a = (13.96) ²* (0.72)

a = 140.3 m/s²

Magnitude of the tension in the string (T)

We apply the Formula (1)

∑F = m*a

T = (0.085 kg )* (140.3 m/s² )

T = 11.93 N

Describe a well-known hypothesis that was discarded because it was found to be untrue.earth-centered model of the universe. the

polet [3.4K]

The widely accepted hypothesis before that turned out wrong was the Earth-Centered theory or the Geocentric Theory. This was proposed by the philosopher Ptolemy. He came about to this hypothesis from hi observation that from the Earth's perspective, the celestial bodies like the Sun, stars and the moon, look like they rotate around the Earth each day and night. However, this was disproved by Galileo Galelei by his Heliocentric Theory. He observed through the telescope that the Venus also changes phases like the moon. However, he deduced that this is not possible from the positions of the Venus, Earth, Moon and Sun.

Using the superposition method, calculate the current through R5 in Figure 8-71

Vladimir79 [104]

by superposition method we can find current in R5

here first let say only 2V battery is present in the circuit

now the equivalent resistance to be found for which we can say

2.2 k ohm and 1 k ohm is connected in parallel

$r_1 = \frac{2.2 * 1}{2.2 + 1}$

$r_1 = 0.6875 k ohm$

now it is in series with 1 k ohm and then that part is in parallel with 2.2 k ohm

$r_2 = \frac{2.2* (1+0.6875)}{2.2 + (1+0.6875)}$

$r_2 = 0.95 k ohm$

now the current flowing through the battery is

$i = \frac{2}{1 + 0.95} = 1.02 mA$

now this will divide into R3 and R2 so current flowing in R3 will be

$i_1 = \frac{2.2}{2.2+1.6875}*1.02 = 0.58 mA$

now this will again divide in R4 and R5

so current in R5 will be

$i_5 = \frac{R_4}{R_4 + R_5}* i_1$

$i_5 = 0.18 mA$

now when only 3 V battery is present in the circuit

R1 and R2 is in parallel and then it is in series with R3

so parallel combination will be

$r_1 = \frac{1*2.2}{2.2 +1} = 0.6875k ohm$

also after its series with R3

$r_2 = 1 + 0.6875 = 1.6875 k ohm$

now it is in parallel with R5 on other side

$r_3 = \frac{1.6875 * 2.2}{1.6875 + 2.2} = 0.95 k ohm$

now current through the battery will be given as

$i = \frac{3}{1 + 0.95} = 1.53 mA$

now it is divide in r2 and R5

so current in R5 is given as

$i_5 = \frac{r_2}{r_2 + R_5}*i$

$i_5 = \frac{1.6875}{2.2 + 1.6875} * 1.53$

$i_5 = 0.67 mA$

now the total current in R5 will be given by super position which is

$i = 0.67 + 0.18 = 0.85 mA$

so there is 0.85 mA current through R5 resistance

Using energy considerations and assuming negligible air resistance, show that a rock thrown from a bridge 20.0 m above water wit

melamori03 [73]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given that,

Height of the bridge is 20m

Initial before he throws the rock

The height is hi = 20 m

Then, final height hitting the water

hf = 0 m

Initial speed the rock is throw

Vi = 15m/s

The final speed at which the rock hits the water

Vf = 24.8 m/s

Using conservation of energy given by the question hint

Ki + Ui = Kf + Uf

Where

Ki is initial kinetic energy

Ui is initial potential energy

Kf is final kinetic energy

Uf is final potential energy

Then,

Ki + Ui = Kf + Uf

Where

Ei = Ki + Ui

Where Ei is initial energy

Ei = ½mVi² + m•g•hi

Ei = ½m × 15² + m × 9.8 × 20

Ei = 112.5m + 196m

Ei = 308.5m J

Now,

Ef = Kf + Uf

Ef = ½mVf² + m•g•hf

Ef = ½m × 24.8² + m × 9.8 × 0

Ef = 307.52m + 0

Ef = 307.52m J

Since Ef ≈ Ei, then the rock thrown from the tip of a bridge is independent of the direction of throw

As in the video, we apply a charge +Q to the half-shell that carries the electroscope. This time, we also apply a charge –Q to t

Andreyy89

Answer:

Explanation:

When the positively charged half shell is brought in contact with the electroscope, its needle deflects due to charge present on the shell.

When the negatively charged half shell is brought in contact with the positively charged shell , the positive and negative charge present on each shell neutralises each other .So both the shells lose their charges .The positive half shell also loses all its charges

When we separate the half shells , there will be no deflection in the electroscope because both the shell have already lost their charges and they have become neutral bodies . So they will not be able to produce any deflection in the electroscope.
