(b) 22.8 MN/C

(c) 6.1 MN/C

(d) 0.63 MN/C

Explanation:

The general expression for electric field along axis of a uniformly charged ring is:

E = kqL/(L² + r²)^(3/2)

where,

E = Electric Field Strength = ?

k = Coulomb's Constant = 9 x 10⁹ N.m²/C²

q = Total Charge = 71 μC = 71 x 10⁻⁶ C

L = Distance from center on axis

r = radius of ring = 10 cm = 0.1 m

(a)

L = 1 cm = 0.01 m

Therefore,

E = (9 x 10⁹ N.m²/C²)(71 x 10⁻⁶ C)(0.01 m)/[(0.01 m)² + (0.1 m)²]^(3/2)

E = (6390 N.m³/C)/(0.00101 m³)

E =  6.3 x 10⁶ N/C = 6.3 MN/C

(b)

L = 5 cm = 0.05 m

Therefore,

E = (9 x 10⁹ N.m²/C²)(71 x 10⁻⁶ C)(0.05 m)/[(0.05 m)² + (0.1 m)²]^(3/2)

E = (31950 N.m³/C)/(0.00139 m³)

E =  22.8 x 10⁶ N/C = 27.4 MN/C

(c)

L = 30 cm = 0.3 m

Therefore,

E = (9 x 10⁹ N.m²/C²)(71 x 10⁻⁶ C)(0.3 m)/[(0.3 m)² + (0.1 m)²]^(3/2)

E = (191700 N.m³/C)/(0.03162 m³)

E =  6.1 x 10⁶ N/C = 6.1 MN/C

(d)

L = 100 cm = 1 m

Therefore,

E = (9 x 10⁹ N.m²/C²)(71 x 10⁻⁶ C)(1 m)/[(1 m)² + (0.1 m)²]^(3/2)

E = (639000 N.m³/C)/(1.015 m³)

E =  0.63 x 10⁶ N/C = 0.63 MN/C

as technology advances, new experiments often expose problems in accepted theories. c

the answer is a. the yacht traveled from the dock north to the 200-meter marker in the bay in less than 5 minutes, giving the passengers several more hours to fish.

im doing peak rn so sry if its wrong
