An infinite sheet of charge is located in the y-z plane at x = 0 and has uniform charge denisity σ1 = 0.51 μC/m2. Another infini

te sheet of charge with uniform charge density σ2 = -0.52 μC/m2 is located at x = c = 22 cm.. An uncharged infinite conducting slab is placed halfway in between these sheets ( i.e., between x = 9 cm and x = 13 cm).

Answer:

 E_total = 5.8 10⁴ N /C

Explanation:

In this problem they ask to find the electric field at two points, the electric field is a vector magnitude, so we can find the field for each charged shoah and add them vectorally at the point of interest.

To find the electric field of a charged conductive sheet, we can use the Gauss law,

        Ф = E. d S = q_{int} / ε₀

Let us use as a Gaussian surface a small cylinder, with the base parallel to the sheet, the electric field between the sheet and the normal one next to the cylinder has 90º, so its scalar product is zero, the electric field between the sheet and the base has An Angle of 0º, therefore the scalar product is reduced to the algebraic product.

Let's look for the electric field for plate 1

The total flow is the same for each face, as there are two sides of the cylinder

       2E A = q_{int} /ε₀

For the internal load we use the concept of surface density

      σ = q_{int1} / A

      q_{int1} = σ₁ A

Let's replace

       2E A = σ₁ A /ε₀

        E₁ = σ₁ / 2ε₀

For the other plate we have a field with a similar expression, but of negative sign

       E₂ = -σ₂ / 2ε₀

The total field is,

        E_total = σ₁ / 2ε₀ + σ₂ / 2ε₀

       E_total = (σ₁ + σ₂) / 2ε₀

Let us apply this expression to our case, when placing a sheet without electric charge, a charge is induced for each sheet, the plate 1 that has a positive charge the electric field is protruding to the right and the plate 2 that has a negative charge creates a incoming field, to the right, as the two fields have the same address add

           The conductive sheet in the middle pate undergoes an induced load that is created by the other two plates, but because the conductive plate the charges are mobile and are replaced.

       E_total = (0.51 +0.52) 10⁻⁶ / 2 8.85 10⁻¹²

       E_total = 5.8 10⁴ N /C

Note that the field is independent of the distance between the plates

James Cameron piloted a submersible craft to the bottom of the Challenger Deep, the deepest point on the ocean's floor, 11,000 m
Over [174]

Answer:

4.1\cdot 10^8 N

Explanation:

First of all, we need to find the pressure exerted on the sphere, which is given by:

p=p_0 + \rho g h

where

p_0 =1.01\cdot 10^5 Pa is the atmospheric pressure

\rho = 1000 kg/m^3 is the water density

g=9.8 m/s^2 is the gravitational acceleration

h=11,000 m is the depth

Substituting,

p=1.01\cdot 10^5 Pa + (1000 kg/m^3)(9.8 m/s^2)(11,000 m)=1.08\cdot 10^8 Pa

The radius of the sphere is r = d/2= 1.1 m/2= 0.55 m

So the total area of the sphere is

A=4 \pi r^2 = 4 \pi (0.55 m)^2=3.8 m^2

And so, the inward force exerted on it is

F=pA=(1.08\cdot 10^8 Pa)(3.8 m^2)=4.1\cdot 10^8 N

Leokris [45]

Explanation:

The structural diversity of carbon-based molecules is determined by following properties:

1. the ability of those bonds to rotate freely,

2.the ability of carbon to form four covalent bonds,

3.the orientation of those bonds in the form of a tetrahedron.

When a surface is submerged in a fluid, the resultant pressure force on the body acts in what manner? Assume no shear forces are
Alex17521 [72]

Answer:

Perpendicular to the surface of the body.

Explanation:

When a surface is submerged in a fluid the resultant pressure force on the body acts perpendicular to the surface of the body. This is because fluids cannot withstand nor exert sideways forces. One could obtain this analytically considering that the origin of this force comes from the movement of the fluid molecules.

A flywheel of mass M is rotating about a vertical axis with angular velocity ω0. A second flywheel of mass M/5 is not rotating a
Contact [7]

Answer:

0.83 ω

Explanation:

mass of flywheel, m = M

initial angular velocity of the flywheel, ω = ωo

mass of another flywheel, m' = M/5

radius of both the flywheels = R

let the final angular velocity of the system is ω'

Moment of inertia of the first flywheel , I = 0.5 MR²

Moment of inertia of the second flywheel, I' = 0.5 x M/5 x R² = 0.1 MR²

use the conservation of angular momentum as no external torque is applied on the system.

I x ω = ( I + I') x ω'

0.5 x MR² x ωo = (0.5 MR² + 0.1 MR²) x ω'

0.5 x MR² x ωo = 0.6 MR² x ω'

ω' = 0.83 ω

Thus, the final angular velocity of the system of flywheels is 0.83 ω.

The famous cliff divers of Acapulco leap from a perch 35 m above the ocean. How fast are they moving when they reach the surface
Rus_ich [418]

1) 26.2 m/s

The mechanical energy of the divers at any point of their vertical motion is sum of the kinetic energy and the gravitational potential energy:

E=K+U = \frac{1}{2}mv^2 + mgh

where

m is the mass of the diver

v is the speed

g = 9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration due to gravity

h is the height above the water

When the diver is on the cliff, v = 0 (he is at rest), so K=0 and the initial mechanical energy is just potential energy:

E_i = mgh

where h=35 m is the height of the cliff.

When the diver hits the water above, h = 0, so U=0 and the final mechanical energy is just kinetic energy:

E_f = \frac{1}{2}mv^2

since the total mechanical energy is conserved, we have

E_i = E_f\\mgh = \frac{1}{2}mv^2

And solving the equation for v, we find the speed when they reach the surface of the water:

v=\sqrt{2gh}=\sqrt{2(9.8 m/s^2)(35 m)}=26.2 m/s

2) It is converted into thermal energy of the water

When the diver enters the water, he suddenly feels another force acting against the motion of the diver: the resistance of the water. The resistance of the water acts upward, slowing down the diver until he stops.

In this process, the speed of the diver (v) decreases, and therefore the kinetic energy of the diver decreases as well, until it becomes zero.

However, this does not mean that the conservation of energy has been violated. In fact, the kinetic energy of the diver has been converted into thermal energy of the molecules of water surrounding the diver.
