Answer:

σ = 0.255*10^-3 C/m²

Explanation:

The Electric field Intensity act due to plate = σ/ε₀, where σ is surface charge density of plate.

At equilibrium ,

Upward force = downward force

Tcosθ = mg ----(1)

Assuming that the Forward force = backward force, then

Tsinθ = σq/ε₀

[ ∵ F = qE , ∴ F = qσ/ε₀ ] -----(2)

Dividing equation (2) by (1)

Tsinθ/Tcosθ = qσ/ε₀mg

⇒Tanθ = qσ/ε₀mg

σ = ε₀mg tanθ/q

Now substituting the values of

σ = (8.85*10^-12 * 1 * tan 30) / 2*10^-8

σ = (8.85*10^-12 * 0.5774) / 2*10^-8

σ = 5.11*10^-12 / 2*10^-8

σ = 0.255*10^-3 C/m²

netineya [11]

Answer: The correct option is C(both A and B)

Explanation:

In engine chambers, internal combustion of fuel is used to produce mechanical energy.

RTV ( Room Temperature Vulcanising) sealants are silicon products used for the sealing purpose of the engine component. As the name implies once exposed to air, it solidifies. However, it has a negative effect on the oxygen sensor of the engine components by makes a coating over the sensors with the silicone film and, after a time, will affect the operation performed by them. Therefore Technician A is correct.

Technician B is equally correct in that an engine need to be lubricated with oil to help cool the moving part while on. But in order to ensure that oil reaches all movable parts a common method know as heavy-duty reversible spin drills is applied. This method regulates the flow of oil using the engine.

Somewhere in the vast flat tundra of planet Tehar, a projectile is launched from the ground at an angle of 60 degrees. It reache
Nina [5.8K]

Answer:

R = 0.0503 m

Explanation:

This is a projectile launching exercise, to find the range we can use the equation

       R = v₀² sin 2θ / g

How we know the maximum height

      v_{f}² =v_{oy}² - 2 g y

      v_{f}= 0

      v_{oy} = √ 2 g y

      v_{oy} = √ 2 9.8 / 15

      v_{oy} = 1.14 m / s

Let's use trigonometry to find the speed

    sin θ = v_{oy} / vo

    vo = v_{oy} / sin θ

    vo = 1.14 / sin 60

    vo = 1.32 m / s

We calculate the range with the first equation

     R = 1.32² sin(2 60) / 30

    R = 0.0503 m
