Archy [21]

Answer:

a) 1.082 × 10⁻¹⁹C ( e = 1.6 × 10⁻¹⁹C)

b) 3.466 × 10¹¹ N/C

Explanation:

p(r) = -A exp ( - 2r/a₀)

Q = ₀∫^∞ ₀∫^π ₀∫^2xπ p(r)dV = -A ₀∫^∞ ₀∫^π ₀∫^2π exp ( - 2r/a₀)r² sinθdrdθd∅

Q = -4πA ₀∫^∞ exp ( - 2r/a₀)r²dr = -e

now using integration by parts;

A = e / πa₀³

p(r) = - (e / πa₀³) exp (-2r/a₀)

Now Net charge inside a sphere of radius a₀ i.e Qnet is;

= e - (e / πa₀³) ₀∫^a₀ ₀∫^π ₀∫^2π r² exp (-2r/a₀)dr

= e - e + 5e exp (-2) = 1.082 × 10⁻¹⁹C ( e = 1.6 × 10⁻¹⁹C)

Using Gauss's law,

E × 4πa₀ ² = Qnet / ∈₀

E = 4πa₀ ² × Qnet × 1/a₀²

E = 3.466 × 10¹¹ N/C

Citrus2011 [14]

Answer:

(a). The pressure is 14.76 psi.

(b). The pressure is 15.59 psi.

(c). The pressure is 15.68 psi.

All answer are reasonable.

Explanation:

Given that,

Speed v₁= 60 mph

Speed v₂ = 225 mph

Speed v₃ = 235 mph

(a). We need to calculate the maximum pressure on his hand

Using equation of pressure

$P_{1}=P+\dfrac{1}{2}\rho v^2+\rho gh$

there, no vertical movement

So, on neglect of height term

$P_{1}=P+\dfrac{1}{2}\rho v_{1}^2$

Where, P= atmospheric pressure

$\rho$ = air density

v = speed

Put the value in the equation

$P_{1}=14.7\times144+\dfrac{1}{2}\times(0.002376\times(60\times1.4667)^2)$

$P_{1}=2126.0\ lb/ft^2$

$P_{1}=\dfrac{2126.0}{144}$

$P_{1}= 14.76\ psi$

(b). Speed v₂ = 225 mph

We need to calculate the maximum pressure on his hand

Using equation of pressure

$P_{2}=P+\dfrac{1}{2}\rho v_{2}^2$

Put the value in the equation

$P_{2}=14.7\times144+\dfrac{1}{2}\times(0.002376\times(225\times1.4667)^2)$

$P_{2}=2246.17\ lb/ft^2$

$P_{2}=\dfrac{2246.17}{144}$

$P_{2}= 15.59\ psi$

(c). Speed v₃ = 235 mph

We need to calculate the maximum pressure on his hand

Using equation of pressure

$P_{3}=P+\dfrac{1}{2}\rho v_{3}^2$

Put the value in the equation

$P_{3}=14.7\times144+\dfrac{1}{2}\times(0.002376\times(235\times1.4667)^2)$

$P_{3}=2257.93\ lb/ft^2$

$P_{3}=\dfrac{2257.93}{144}$

$P_{3}= 15.68\ psi$

According to bernoulli's equation,

If the car increases the velocity the the pressure on the surface of the driver's hand increases.

The pressure from P₁ to P₃ are all near the value of one atmosphere.

So, the pressure difference of one atmosphere is not enough to break the driver's hand.

Hence, (a). The pressure is 14.76 psi.

(b). The pressure is 15.59 psi.

(c). The pressure is 15.68 psi.

All answer are reasonable.
