Answer:

a)   E = 8.63 10³ N /C,  E = 7.49 10³ N/C

b)   E= 0 N/C,  E = 7.49 10³ N/C  

Explanation:

a)  For this exercise we can use Gauss's law

         Ф = ∫ E. dA = q_{int} /ε₀

We must take a Gaussian surface in a spherical shape. In this way the line of the electric field and the radi of the sphere are parallel by which the scalar product is reduced to the algebraic product

The area of ​​a sphere is

        A = 4π r²

 

if we use the concept of density

        ρ = q_{int} / V

        q_{int} = ρ V

the volume of the sphere is

      V = 4/3 π r³

         

we substitute

         E 4π r² = ρ (4/3 π r³) /ε₀

         E = ρ r / 3ε₀

the density is

         ρ = Q / V

         V = 4/3 π a³

         E = Q 3 / (4π a³) r / 3ε₀

         k = 1 / 4π ε₀

         E = k Q r / a³

 

let's calculate

for r = 4.00cm = 0.04m

        E = 8.99 10⁹ 3.00 10⁻⁹ 0.04 / 0.05³

        E = 8.63 10³ N / c

for r = 6.00 cm

in this case the gaussine surface is outside the sphere, so all the charge is inside

         E (4π r²) = Q /ε₀

         E = k q / r²

let's calculate

         E = 8.99 10⁹ 3 10⁻⁹ / 0.06²

          E = 7.49 10³ N/C

b) We repeat in calculation for a conducting sphere.

For r = 4 cm

In this case, all the charge eta on the surface of the sphere, due to the mutual repulsion between the mobile charges, so since there is no charge inside the Gaussian surface, therefore the field is zero.

         E = 0

In the case of r = 0.06 m, in this case, all the load is inside the Gaussian surface, therefore the field is

        E = k q / r²

      E = 7.49 10³ N / C

You’ve been given the challenge of balancing a uniform, rigid meter-stick with mass M = 95 g on a pivot. Stacked on the 0-cm end
Mariulka [41]

Answer: d = 4750n/3.1+95n

Explanation:

Using the principle of moment to solve the question.

Sum of clockwise moments = sum of anti clockwise moments

Since there are n identical coins with mass 3.1g placed at point 0cm, 1 coin will have mass of 3.1/n grams

Taking moment about the pivot,

Mass 3.1/n grams will move anti-clockwisely while the mass 95g will move in the clockwise direction.

Since its a meter rule (100cm) the distance from the center mass(95g) to the pivot will be 50-d (check attachment for diagram).

To get 'd'

We have 3.1/n × d = 95 × (50-d)

3.1d/n = 4750-95d

3.1d = 4750n-95dn

3.1d+95dn=4750n

d(3.1+95n) = 4750n

d = 4750n/3.1+95n

An ocean liner is cruising at 10 meters/second and is about to approach a stationary ferryboat. A parcel is released from the oc
Afina-wow [57]
The parcel will undergo projectile motion, which means that it will have motion in both the horizontal and vertical direction.

First, we determine how long the parcel will fall using:

s = ut + 1/2 at²

where s will be the height, u is the initial vertical velocity of the parcel (0), t is the time of fall and a is the acceleration due to gravity. 

5.5 = (0)(t) + 1/2 (9.81)(t)²
t = 1.06 seconds

Now, we may use this time to determine the horizontal distance covered by the parcel by using:
distance = velocity * time

The horizontal velocity of the parcel will be equal to the horizontal velocity of the cruise liner.

Distance = 10 * 1.06
Distance = 10.6 meters

The boat should be 10.6 meters away horizontally from the point of release.

Calculate the energy in the form of heat (in kJ) required to change 75.0 g of liquid water at 27.0 °C to ice at –20.0 °C. Assume
REY [17]

Explanation:

The given data is as follows.

          mass, m = 75 g

      T_{1} = 0^{o}C

      T_{2} = 27^{o}C

      Specific heat of water = 4.18

First, we will calculate the heat required for water is as follows.

            q = m C \times (T_{1} - T_{2})

               = 75 g \times 4.18 J/g^{o}C \times (0 - 27)^{o}C

               = 8464.5 J/mol

               = 8.46 kJ ......... (1)

Also, it is given that T_{3} = -20^{o}C = (20 + 273) K = 293 K and specific heat of ice is 2.108 kJ/kg K.

Now, we will calculate the heat of fusion as follows.

        q = mC \times (T_{3} - T_{1})

           = 0.075 kg \times 2.108 kJ/kg K \times (-293 - 0) K

           = -46.32 kJ ......... (2)

Now, adding both equations (1) and (2) as follows.

               8.46 kJ - 46.32 kJ

             = -37.86 kJ

Therefore, we can conclude that energy in the form of heat (in kJ) required to change 75.0 g of liquid water at 27.0^{o}C to ice at -20.0^{o}C is -37.86 kJ.

A helicopter, starting from rest, accelerates straight up from the roof of a hospital. The lifting force does work in raising th
kobusy [5.1K]

Answer:

24,267.6 watts

Explanation:

from the question we are given the following:

mass (m) = 810 kg

final velocity (v) = 7 m/s

initial velocity (u) = 0 m/s

time (t) = 3.5 s

final height (h₁) = 8.2 m

initial height (h₀) = 0 m

acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s^{2}

find the power

power = \frac{work done}[time}

and

work done = change in kinetic energy (K.E) + change in potential energy (P.E)

work done = (0.5 mv^{2} - 0.5 mu^{2} ) + ( mgh₁ - mgh₀)

since u and h₀ are zero the work done now becomes

work done = (0.5 mv^{2}) + ( mgh₁ )                    

work done = (0.5 x 810 x 7^{2}) + ( 810 x 9.8 x 8.2)

work done = 84, 936.6 joules

recall that power = \frac{work done}[time}

power = \frac{84,936.6}[3.5}

power = 24,267.6 watts

A 145-g baseball is thrown so that it acquires a speed of 25 m/s. What was the net work done on the ball to make it reach this s
inysia [295]

When the ball has left your hand and is flying on its own, its kinetic energy is

KE = (1/2) (mass) (speed²)

KE = (1/2) (0.145 kg) (25 m/s)²

KE = (0.0725 kg) (625 m²/s²)

<em>KE = 45.3 Joules</em>

If the baseball doesn't have rocket engines on it, or a hamster inside running on a treadmill that turns a propeller on the outside, then there's only one other place where that kinetic energy could come from:  It MUST have come from the hand that threw the ball.  The hand would have needed to do  <em>45.3 J</em>  of work on the ball before releasing it.
