Answer:

a) The the charges on the inner and outer surfaces of the shell are respectively +q, -q

Explanation:

Under static equilibrium inside a conductor, the total electric field, E = 0

This must be zero so that no charge will be moving since the conductor is in static equilibrium.

Also, since Electric field, E is zero, then flux through the surface will zero.

From Gauss' law, the total charge enclosed is zero.

Given –q as the  charge at the center of the shell, then the opposite charge on inner surfaces  will be +q, so that the total charge enclosed will be zero.

Since the charge is in static equilibrium, then opposite charge will be on the surface, that is –q.

Therefore, the the charges on the inner and outer surfaces of the shell are respectively +q, -q

A 6.0-cm-diameter, 11-cm-long cylinder contains 100 mg of oxygen (O2) at a pressure less than 1 atm. The cap on one end of the c
butalik [34]

Answer:

The temperature of the gas is 1197.02 K

Explanation:

From ideal gas law;

PV = nRT

Where;

P is the pressure of the gas

V is the volume of the gas

R is ideal gas constant = 8.314 L.kPa/mol.K

T is the temperature of the gas

n is the number of moles of gas

Volume of the gas in the cylindrical container = πr²h

Given;

r = 6/2 = 3 cm = 0.03 m

h = 11 cm = 0.11 m

V = π × (0.03)² × 0.11 = 3.11 × 10⁻⁴ m³ = 0.311 L

number of moles of oxygen gas = Reacting mass / molar mass

=\frac{0.1}{32} = 0.003125, moles

T = \frac{PV}{nR} = \frac{100X0.311}{0.003125X8.314} =1197.02K

Therefore, the temperature of the gas is 1197.02 K

An object is moving in the plane according to these parametric equations:
aniked [119]
A. The horizontal velocity is 
vx = dx/dt = π - 4πsin (4πt + π/2)
vx = π - 4π sin (0 + π/2)
vx = π - 4π (1)
vx = -3π

b. vy = 4π cos (4πt + π/2)
vy = 0

c. m = sin(4πt + π/2) / [<span>πt + cos(4πt + π/2)]

d. m = </span>sin(4π/6 + π/2) / [π/6 + cos(4π/6 + π/2)]

e. t = -1.0

f. t = -0.35

g. Solve for t 
vx = π - 4πsin (4πt + π/2) = 0
Then substitute back to solve for vxmax

h. Solve for t
vy = 4π cos (4πt + π/2) = 0
The substitute back to solve for vymax

i. s(t) = [<span>x(t)^2 + y</span>(t)^2]^(1/2)

h. s'(t) = d [x(t)^2 + y(t)^2]^(1/2) / dt

k and l. Solve for the values of t
d [x(t)^2 + y(t)^2]^(1/2) / dt = 0
And substitute to determine the maximum and minimum speeds.

If the mass of a material is 45 grams and the volume of the material is 8 cm^3, what would the density of the material be?
Svet_ta [14]
The density of the substance is the ratio of its mass over the space it occupies. In mathematical equation, this can be expressed as,

        ρ = m / v

where ρ is density, m is mass, and v is volume. 

Substituting the known values from the given,
 
    ρ = (45 g) / (8 cm³)

     ρ = 5.625 g/cm³

<em>ANSWER: 5.625 g/cm³</em>

Determine the sign (+ or −) of the torque about the elbow caused by the biceps, τbiceps, the sign of the weight of the forearm,
Alex Ar [27]
Ans: 
1.  τbiceps = +(Positive)
2.  τforearm = -(Negative)
3.  τball = -(Negative)

Explanation:

The figure is attached down below.

1. T<span>orque about the elbow caused by the biceps, τbiceps:
Since Torque = r x F (where r and F are the vectors)
</span>Where r is the vector from elbow to the biceps.
<span>
We can see in the figure that F(biceps) is in upward direction, and by applying the right hand rule from r to F, we get the counterclockwise direction. The torque in counterclockwise direction is positive(+). Therefore, the sign would be +.

2. </span>Torque about the the weight of the forearm, τforearm:
Since Torque = r x F (where r and F are the vectors)
Where r is the vector from elbow to the forearm.

Also weight is the special kind of Force caused by the gravity.

We can see in the figure that W(forearm) is in downward direction, and by applying the right hand rule from r to F, we get the clockwise direction. The torque in clockwise direction is negative(-). Therefore, the sign would be -.

3. Torque about the the weight of the ball, τball:
Since Torque = r x F (where r and F are the vectors)
Where r is the vector from elbow to the ball.

Also weight is the special kind of Force caused by the gravity.

We can see in the figure that W(ball) is in downward direction, and by applying the right hand rule from r to F, we get the clockwise direction. The torque in clockwise direction is negative(-). Therefore, the sign would be -.
