What is the magnitude of the electric field at a point midway between a −8.3μC and a +7.8μC charge 9.2cm apart? Assume no other charges are nearby.

The net electric field at the midpoint is 6.85 x 10^7 N/C.

Explanation:

q = − 8.3 μC

q' = + 7.8 μC

d =  9.2 cm

d/2 = 4.6 cm

The electric field due to the charge q at midpoint is

leftwards

The electric field due to the charge q' at midpoint is

The resultant electric field at mid point is

E'' = E + E' = (3.53 + 3.32) x 10^7 = 6.85 x 10^7 N/C

3.2x10^7

answer: at 24 february, 2014 the population gets twice of its initial population.

explanation:

since we have given that

the population for alpha city, t years after january 1, 2004 is given as

first we find out the initial population, i.e. t=0,

so, our quadratic equation becomes,

according to question, we have said that if the population has twice its initial population, then it becomes

so, time taken to reach this above mentioned population is given by

now, we know that time can't be negative so, we take t=9.149 years.

hence, at 24 february, 2014 the population gets twice of its initial population.
