Answer:

2.62898\times 10^{-6}\ C/m^3

1979.99974\ N/C

Explanation:

k = Coulomb constant = 8.99\times 10^{9}\ Nm^2/C^2

Q = Charge

r = Distance = 8 cm

R = Radius = 4 cm

Electric field is given by

E=\dfrac{kQ}{r^2}\\\Rightarrow Q=\dfrac{Er^2}{k}\\\Rightarrow E=\dfrac{990\times 0.08^2}{8.99\times 10^{9}}\\\Rightarrow Q=7.04783\times 10^{-10}\ C

Volume charge density is given by

\sigma=\dfrac{Q}{\dfrac{4}{3}\pi R^3}\\\Rightarrow \sigma=\dfrac{7.04783\times 10^{-10}}{\dfrac{4}{3}\pi (0.04)^3}\\\Rightarrow \sigma=2.62898\times 10^{-6}\ C/m^3

The volume charge density for the sphere is 2.62898\times 10^{-6}\ C/m^3

E=\dfrac{kQr}{R^3}\\\Rightarrow E=\dfrac{8.99\times 10^9\times 7.04783\times 10^{-10}\times 0.02}{0.04^3}\\\Rightarrow E=1979.99974\ N/C

The magnitude of the electric field is 1979.99974\ N/C

What change will always result in an increase in gravitational force between two objects
tekilochka [14]

The gravitational force between two object depends on their masses and on their distance.


Since the formula is


F = G\frac{m_1m_2}{d^2}


If the masses grow, the force also grows. But I'm assuming the two objects are fixed, so you can't enlarge their mass.


So, the only option remaining is to lower their distance: since it sits at the denominator, a smaller value of d results in a bigger value for F.


So, if you reduce the distance between two objects, the gravitational force between them will always result in an increase

A satellite dish is shaped like a paraboloid of revolution. This means that it can be formed by rotating a parabola around its a
pentagon [3]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given dish width= 48ft

Depth = 4ft

Using equation of a parabola

x²= 4py

48² = 4p 4

4p = 576

P= 144ft

Thus the the receiver should be placed 144ft from t the vertex

How is motion affected by change in mass of an object and forces applied?
densk [106]
Newtons second law says that the acceleration of an object (produced by a net force) is directly proportional to that magnitude of the net force. E.g. F = ma
where F is the net force of an object, m is mass and a is acceleration.
For example, if an object had a large mass, there would have to be more force in order to move it than if it was lighter.  
In a linear motion, if you pushed two objects, one slightly larger than the other, with the same force, the acceleration of the smaller object would be bigger than the larger one. So the motion (change in position over time), of the larger object would be seen as lesser than the smaller one (in a situation where both forces are equal).

A driver in a 2000 kg Porsche wishes to pass to pass a slow-moving school bus on a four-lane road. What is the average power in
Kryger [21]

The average power is 3.0\cdot 10^6 W

Explanation:

First of all, we calculate the work done to accelerate the car; according to the work-energy theorem, the work done is equal to the change in kinetic energy of the car:

W=K_f -K_i= \frac{1}{2}mv^2-\frac{1}{2}mu^2

where :

K_f = \frac{1}{2}mv^2 is the final kinetic energy of the car, with

m = 2000 kg is the mass of the car

v = 60 m/s is the final speed of the car

K_i = \frac{1}{2}mu^2 is the initial kinetic energy of the car, with

u = 30 m/s is initial speed of the car

Soolving:

W=\frac{1}{2}(2000)(60)^2 - \frac{1}{2}(2000)(30)^2=2.7\cdot 10^6 J

Now we can find the power required for the acceleration, which is given by

P=\frac{W}{t}

where

t = 9 s is the time elapsed

Solving:

P=\frac{2.7\cdot 10^6}{9}=3.0\cdot 10^6 W

If air resistance can be neglected, how does the acceleration of a ball that has been tossed straight upward compare with its ac
timama [110]
They are the same. If this is all happening on Earth, then the ball's acceleration is 9.8 m/s^2 in either case. That's the acceleration of gravity around here.
