The electric field produced by a large flat plate with uniform charge density on its surface can be found by using Gauss law, and it is equal to
$E= \frac{\sigma}{2\epsilon_0}$
where
$\sigma$ is the charge density
$\epsilon_0$ is the vacuum permittivity

We see that the intensity of the electric field does not depend on the distance from the plate. Therefore, the strenght of the electric field at 4 cm from the plate is equal to the strength of the electric field at 2 cm from the plate:
$E=30 N/C$

 A bartender slides a beer mug at 1.50 m/s toward a customer at the end of a frictionless bar that is 1.20 m tall. The customer

Andrew [12]

Answer:

a) the mug hits the floor 0.7425m away from the end of the bar. b) |V|=5.08m/s θ= -72.82°

Explanation:

In order to solve this problem, we must first start by doing a drawing of the situation. (see attached picture).

a)

From the drawing we can see that we are dealing with a two dimensions movement problem. So in order to find out how far away from the bar the mug will fall, we need to start by finding how long it will take the mug to be in the air, so we analyze the vertical movement of the mug.

In order to find the time we need to use the following formula, which contains the data we know:

$y_{f}=y_{0}+v_{y0}t+\frac{1}{2}at^{2}$

we know that $y_{f}=0$ and that $v_{y0}=0$ as well, so the formula is simplified to:

$0=y_{0}+\frac{1}{2}at^{2}$

we can now solve this for t, so we get:

$-y_{0}=\frac{1}{2}at^{2}$

$-2y_{0}=at^{2}$

$\frac{-2y_{0}}{a}=t^{2}$

$t=\sqrt{\frac{-2y_{0}}{a}}$

we know that $y_{0}=1.20m$ and that $a=g=-9.8m/s^{2}$

the acceleration of gravity is negative because the mug is moving downwards. So we substitute them into the given formula:

$t=\sqrt{\frac{-2(1.20m)}{(-9.8m/s^{2})}}$

which yields:

t=0.495s

we can now use this to find the horizontal distance the mug travels. We know that:

$V_{x}=\frac{x}{t}$

so we can solve this for x, so we get:

$x=V_{x}t$

and we can now substitute the values we know:

x=(1.5m/s)(0.495s)

which yields:

x=0.7425m

b) Now that we know the time it takes the mug to hit the floor, we can use it to find the final velocity in the y-direction by using the following formula:

$a=\frac{v_{f}-v_{0}}{t}$

we know the initial velocity in the vertical direction is zero, so we can simplify the formula:

$a=\frac{v_{f}}{t}$

so we can solve this for the final velocity:

$V_{yf}=at$

in this case the acceleration is the same as the acceleration of gravity (which is negative) so we can substitute that and the time we found on the previous part to get:

$V_{yf}=(-9.8m/s^{2})(0.495s)$

which yields:

$V_{yf}=-4.851m/s$

so now we know the components of the final velocity, which are:

$V_{xf}=1.5m/s$ and $V_{yf]=-4.851m/s$

so now we can find the speed by determining the magnitude of the vector, like this:

$|V|=\sqrt{V_{x}^{2}+V_{y}^{2}}$

so we get:

$|V|=\sqrt{(1.5m/s)^{2}+(-4.851m/s)^{2}$

which yields:

|V|=5.08m/s

now, to find the direction of the impact, we can use the following equation:

$\theta = tan^{-1} (\frac{V_{y}}{V_{x}})$

so we get:

$\theta = tan^{-1} (\frac{-4.851m/s}{(1.5m/s)})$

which yields:

$\theta = -72.82^{o}$

You stand on a bathroom scale in a moving elevator. what happens to the scale reading if the cable holding the elevator suddenly

Viefleur [7K]

A bathroom scales works due to gravity. Under normal conditions, a reading can be obtained when your body is pushing some force on the scale. However in this case, since you and the scale are both moving downwards, so your body is no longer pushing on the scale. Therefore the answer is:

<span>The reading will drop to 0 instantly</span>

Sever21 [200]

Answer:

0.00325 moles/liter/second

Explanation:

The tangent line has a slope of (y2 -y1)/(x2 -x1) = (0.35-0.48)/(40-0) = -0.00325.

The rate of the reaction is about 0.00325 moles/liter/second.
