The length of a rectangle is six times its width. if the perimeter of the rectangle is 140 in , find its area.

1 answer:

4 0

L = 6W ---- the lenght is 6 times its width
P = 2(L + W) = 140
A =?

P = 2(L+W)
P = 2L + 2W
we know that L = 6W so we plug it into the equation
P = 2(6W) + 2W= 140
12W + 2W = 140
14W = 140
W = 140/14
W = 10

Lets plug 10 into the equation L = 6W
L = 6(10)
L = 60

AREA = LW
= 60 * 10
= 600

The complete Question is

A −12 nC charge is located at (x, y)=(1.0 cm, 0 cm).

Part A) What is the electric field at the position (x1, y1)=(5.0 cm, 0 cm) in component form?

Part B) What is the electric field at the position (x2, y2)=(−5.0 cm, 0 cm) in component form?

Part C) What is the electric field at the position (x3, y3)=(0 cm, 5.0 cm) in component form?

Express your answer in terms of the unit vectors i^ and j^. Use the 'unit vector' button to denote unit vectors in your answer.

Answer:

A) E = - 67500i + 0j N/C

B) E = 30000i + 0j N/C

C) E = 8143.18i - -40715.66j N/C

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A)

Magnitude of the charge = Q = -12 nC = $-12 \times 10^{-9}$ C

Since, its the negative charge, the direction of Electric Field lines will be directed toward the charge

Location of the charge = (1, 0)

We need to find the electric field at point (5, 0)

The formula for the magnitude of electric field due to a point charge is:

$E=\frac{kQ}{r^{2}}$

Here,

k = Coulomb's Law Constant = $9 \times 10^{9}$

Q = Magnitude of the charge

r = Distance between the charge and the point where we need to find the value of E

We can find r by using the Distance Formula.

So,

$r=\sqrt{(5-1)^{2}+(0-0)^{2}}=4$ cm = 0.04 m

Using these values in the formula, we get:

$E=\frac{9\times 10^{9} \times 12 \times 10^{-9}}{(0.04)^{2}}= 67500$ N/C

Since, two point (5, 0) is to the right of the given charge (as shown in the first image) i.e. in horizontal direction, all of the electric field experienced by it will be in horizontal direction and the vertical component would be zero. Also the direction of Electric field will be towards the charge i.e. in left direction so the x-component of Electric field will be negative.

Thus, we can write the value of E in vector form to be:

E = - 67500i + 0j N/C

Part B)

We need to find the Electric Field at point (-5, 0)

Using the similar procedure as used in the previous step, first we find r:

$r=\sqrt{(-5-1)^{2}+(0-0)^{2}}=6$ cm = 0.06

Using the values in the formula of Electric field, we get:

$E = \frac{9 \times 10^{9} \times 12 \times 10^{-9}}{(0.06)^2}=30000$ N/C

In this case again, the point is located in a horizontal direction to the given charge, so all the Electric Field experienced by it will be in horizontal direction and the vertical component will be zero. The direction of Electric field will be towards the charge i.e towards Right, so the x-component will be positive in this case.

So, value of the electric field in component form would be:

E = 30000i + 0j N/C

Part C)

We need to find the value of electric field at the point (0, 5). First we find the value of r:

$r=\sqrt{(1-0)^2+(0-5)^2}=\sqrt{26}=5.1$ cm = 0.051 m

Using the values in the formula of E, we get:

$E=\frac{kQ}{r^{2}}=\frac{9 \times 10^{9} \times 12 \times 10^{-9}}{(0.051)^{2}}=41522$ N/C

The point (0, 5) is neither exactly to the left or exactly up. So, for this point we need to find both the horizontal and vertical components as shown in the 2nd figure below.

From the triangle, we have the opposite and adjacent side to the angle, so using the tangent we can find the value of angle theta.

$tan(\theta)=\frac{5}{1}\\\theta=tan^{-1}(5)=78.69$

The two angles shown in the figure will be equal as there are alternate interior angles. Now the angle which E will make with positive x-axis will lie in the 4th quadrant as it lies below the horizontal line. So, the angle with positive x-axis would be:

360 - 78.69 = 281.31 degrees

Ex = E cos(θ) = 41522 cos(281.31) = 8143.18 N/C

Ey = E sin(θ) = 41522 sin(281.31) = -40715.66 N/C

So, in component form the Electric field will be:

E = 8143.18<em>i</em> - -40715.66<em>j</em>
