Charge is placed on two conducting spheres that are very far apart and connected by a long thin wire. The radius of the smaller

kobusy [5.1K]

Answer:

σ₁ = $3.167 * 10^{-6}$ C/m²

σ₂ = $7.6 * 10 ^{-6}$ C/m²

Explanation:

The given data :-

i) The radius of smaller sphere ( r ) = 5 cm.

ii) The radius of larger sphere ( R ) = 12 cm.

iii) The electric field at of larger sphere ( E₁ ) = 358 kV/m. = 358 * 1000 v/m

$E_{1} = (\frac{1}{4\pi\epsilon }) (\frac{Q_{1} }{R^{2} } )$

$358000 = 9 * 10^{9 } *\frac{Q_{1} }{0.12^{2} }$

Q₁ = 572.8 $* 10^{-9}$ C

Since the field inside a conductor is zero, therefore electric potential ( V ) is constant.

V = constant

∴ $\frac{Q_{1} }{R} = \frac{Q_{2} }{r}$

$Q_{2} = \frac{r}{R} *Q_{1}$

$Q_{2} = \frac{5}{12} *572.8*10^{-9}$ = $238.666 *10^{-9}$ C

Surface charge density ( σ₁ ) for large sphere.

Area ( A₁ ) = 4 * π * R² = 4 * 3.14 * 0.12 = 0.180864 m².

σ₁ = $\frac{Q_{1} }{A_{1} }$ = $\frac{572.8 *10^{-9} }{0.180864}$ = $3.167 * 10^{-6}$ C/m².

Surface charge density ( σ₂ ) for smaller sphere.

Area ( A₂ ) = 4 * π * r² = 4 * 3.14 * 0.05² =0.0314 m².

σ₂ = $\frac{Q_{2} }{A_{2} }$ = $\frac{238.66 *10^{-9} }{0.0314}$ = $7.6 * 10 ^{-6}$ C/m²

A uniform sphere with mass M and radius R is rotating with angular speed ω1 about a frictionless axle along a diameter of the sp

liq [111]

Answer:

$W_2=\sqrt{\frac{3}{5} }W_1$

Explanation:

For the first ball, the moment of inertia and the kinetic energy is:

$I_1 =\frac{2}{5}MR^2$

$K_1 = \frac{1}{2}IW_1^2$

So, replacing, we get that:

$K_1 = \frac{1}{2}(\frac{2}{5}MR^2)W_1^2$

At the same way, the moment of inertia and kinetic energy for second ball is:

$I_2 =\frac{2}{3}MR^2$

$K_2 = \frac{1}{2}IW_2^2$

So:

$K_2 = \frac{1}{2}(\frac{2}{3}MR^2)W_2^2$

Then, $K_2$ is equal to $K_1$ , so:

$K_2 = K_1$

$\frac{1}{2}(\frac{2}{3}MR^2)W_2^2 = \frac{1}{2}(\frac{2}{5}MR^2)W_1^2$

$\frac{1}{3}MR^2W_2^2 = \frac{1}{5}MR^2W_1^2$

$\frac{1}{3}W_2^2 = \frac{1}{5}W_1^2$

Finally, solving for $W_2$ , we get:

$W_2=\sqrt{\frac{3}{5} }W_1$

A father demonstrates projectile motion to his children by placing a pea on his fork's handle and rapidly depressing the curved

MariettaO [177]

Answer:

4.17 m/s

Explanation:

To solve this problem, let's start by analyzing the vertical motion of the pea.

The initial vertical velocity of the pea is

$u_y = u sin \theta = (7.39)(sin 69.0^{\circ})=6.90 m/s$

Now we can solve the problem by applying the suvat equation:

$v_y^2-u_y^2=2as$

where

$v_y$ is the vertical velocity when the pea hits the ceiling

$a=g=-9.8 m/s^2$ is the acceleration of gravity

s = 1.90 is the distance from the ceiling

Solving for $v_y$ ,

$v_y = \sqrt{u_y^2+2as}=\sqrt{(6.90)^2+2(-9.8)(1.90)}=3.22 m/s$

Instead, the horizontal velocity remains constant during the whole motion, and it is given by

$v_x = u cos \theta = (7.39)(cos 69.0^{\circ})=2.65 m/s$

Therefore, the speed of the pea when it hits the ceiling is

$v=\sqrt{v_x^2+v_y^2}=\sqrt{2.65^2+3.22^2}=4.17 m/s$

A charge of uniform volume density (40 nC/m3) fills a cube with 8.0-cm edges. What is the total electric flux through the surfac

GREYUIT [131]

Answer:

The flux through the surface of the cube is $2.314\ Nm^{2}/C$

Solution:

As per the question:

Edge of the cube, a = 8.0 cm = $8.0\times 10^{- 2}\ m$

Volume Charge density, $\rho_{v} = 40 nC/m^{3} = 40\times {- 9}\ C/m^{3}$

Now,

To calculate the electric flux:

$\phi = \frac{q}{\epsilon_{o}}$ (1)

where

$\phi$ = electric flux

$\epsilon_{o} = 8.85\times 10^{- 12}\ F/m$ = permittivity of free space

Volume Charge density for the given case is given by the formula:

$\rho_{v} = \frac{Total\ charge, q}{Volume of cube, V}$ (2)

Volume of cube, $V = a^{3}$

Thus

$V = (8.0\times 10^{- 2})^{3} = 5.12\times 10^{- 4}\ m^{3}$

Thus from eqn (2), the total charge is given by:

$q = \rho_{v}V = 40\times {- 9}\times 5.12\times 10^{- 4}$

$q = 2.048\times 10^{-11}\ F = 20.48\ pF$

Now, substitute the value of 'q' in eqn (1):

$\phi = \frac{2.048\times 10^{-11}}{8.85\times 10^{- 12}} = 2.314\ Nm^{2}/C$

A proton of mass mp is released from rest just above the lower plate and reaches the top plate with speed vp. An electron of mas

vodka [1.7K]

Answer:

$v_e=\sqrt{\frac{m_pv_p^2}{m_e}}$

Explanation:

You can consider that the force that acts over the proton is the same to the force over the electron. This is because the electric force is given by:

$F=qE$

$F_p=F_e$

where E is the constant electric field between the parallel plates, and is the same for both electron and proton. Also, the charge is the same.

by using the Newton second law for the proton, and by using kinematic equation for the calculation of the acceleration you can obtain:

$m_pa_p=qE\\\\a_p=\frac{v_p^2}{2d}\\\\\frac{m_pv_p^2}{2d}=qE$

(it has been used that vp^2 = v_o^2+2ad) where d is the separation of the plates, ap the acceleration of the proton, vp its velocity and mp its mass.

By doing the same for the electron you obtain:

$\frac{m_ev_e^2}{2d}=qE$

we can equals these expressions for both proton and electron, because the forces qE are the same:

$\frac{m_pv_p^2}{2d}=\frac{m_ev_e^2}{2d}\\\\v_e=\sqrt{\frac{m_pv_p^2}{m_e}}$
