A positively charged disk has a uniform charge per unit area σ. dq R P x The total electric field at P is given by the following. Ek [2 - x (R² + x2) 1/2 Sketch the electric field lines in a plane perpendicular to the plane of the disk passing through its center.
Consider a closed triangular box resting within a horizontal electric field of magnitude E = 8.02  104 N/C as shown in the figure below. A closed right triangular box with its vertical side on the left and downward slope on the right rests within a horizontal electric field vector E that points from left to right. The box has a height of 10.0 cm and a depth of 30.0 cm. The downward slope of the box makes an angle of 60 degrees with the vertical. (a) Calculate the electric flux through the vertical rectangular surface of the box. kN · m2/C(b) Calculate the electric flux through the slanted surface of the box. kN · m2/C(c) Calculate the electric flux through the entire surface of the box. kN · m2/C
The figure below shows, at left, a solid disk of radius R = 0.600 m and mass 75.0 kg. Tu Mounted directly to it and coaxial with it is a pulley with a much smaller mass and a radius of r = 0.230 m. The disk and pulley assembly are on a frictionless axle. A belt is wrapped around the pulley and connected to an electric motor as shown on the right. The turning motor gives the disk and pulley a clockwise angular acceleration of 1.67 rad/s². The tension T in the upper (taut) segment of the belt is 145 N. (a) What is the tension (in N) in the lower (slack) segment of the belt? N (b) What If? You replace the belt with a different one (one slightly longer and looser, but still tight enough that it does not sag). You again turn on the motor so that the disk accelerates clockwise. The upper segment of the belt once again has a tension of 145 N, but now the tension in the lower belt is exactly zero. What is the magnitude of the angular acceleration (in rad/s²)? rad/s²
