When these two conducting spheres are connected together through a thin wire then charge from the smaller sphere will travel through the wire. And, this charge will continue to travel towards the neutral sphere until the charge on both the spheres will become equal to each other.

For example, charge on small sphere is 5 C then this charge will continue to travel towards the neutral sphere until its charge also becomes equal to 5 C.

Hence, then their potential will also become equal.

Thus, we can conclude that the spheres are connected by a long, thin wire, then after a sufficiently long time the two spheres are at the same potential.

A steel sphere sits on top of an aluminum ring. The steel sphere (a= 1.1 x 10^-5/degrees celsius) has a diameter of 4.000 cm at

mote1985 [20]

Answer:

Explanation:

To solve this question, we will need to develop an expression that relates the diameter 'd', at temperature T equals the original diameter d₀ (at 0 degrees) plus the change in diameter from the temperature increase ( ΔT = T):

d = d₀ + d₀αT

for the sphere, we were given

D₀ = 4.000 cm

α = 1.1 x 10⁻⁵/degrees celsius

we have D = 4 + (4x(1.1 x 10⁻⁵)T = 4 + (4.4x10⁻⁵)T EQN 1

Similarly for the Aluminium ring we have

we were given

d₀ = 3.994 cm

α = 2.4 x 10⁻⁵/degrees celsius

we have d = 3.994 + (3.994x(2.4 x 10⁻⁵)T = 3.994 + (9.58x10⁻⁵)T EQN 2

Since @ the temperature T at which the sphere fall through the ring, d=D

Eqn 1 = Eqn 2
