A)If your torsion balance deflects to an angle of 10° when your two spheres are 40cm apart, what angle will it deflect to when t

he spheres are 10cm apart?
b)If your torsion balance deflects to an angle of 10° when your two spheres are 20cm apart, and charged to a potential of 8 kV, what angle will it deflect to when the spheres are charged to a voltage of 4kV?

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

for \theta=10^{\circ}

Sphere are d=40\ cm

when sphere d_2=10\ cm apart suppose deflection is \theta _2

We know

F=k_t\cdot \theta

Where F=force between charged particle

\theta =Deflection

F=\frac{kQ_1Q_2}{r^2}=k_t\cdot \theta

\theta =\frac{k}{k_t}\times \frac{Q_1Q_2}{r^2}----1

thus \theta \propto \frac{1}{r^2}

for \theta _2

\frac{\theta _1}{\theta _2}=(\frac{r_2}{r_1})^2

\theta _2=16\times \theta _1

\theta _2=160^{\circ}

(b)for 10^{\circ} deflection Potential v_1=8\ kV

Electric Potential is V=\frac{kQ}{r}

Q=\frac{V\cdot r}{k}

where V=voltage

k=constant

r=distance between charges

Put value of Q in equation 1

\theta =\frac{k}{k_t}\times \frac{V^2r^2}{k^2}

\theta =\frac{V^2r^2}{k\cdot k_t}

thus \theta \propto V^2

therefore

\frac{\theta _1}{\theta _2}=(\frac{V_1}{V_2})^2

\frac{10}{\theta _2}=(\frac{8}{4})^2

\theta _2=\frac{10}{4}=2.5^{\circ}

A lab cart with a mass of 15 kg is moving with constant velocity, v, along a straight horizontal track. A student drops a 2 kg m
lbvjy [14]

The equation 15v_{i} + 2*0 = (15 + 2)v_{f} (option 3) represents the horizontal momentum of a 15 kg lab cart moving with a constant velocity, v, and that continues moving after a 2 kg object is dropped into it.  

The horizontal momentum is given by:

p_{i} = p_{f}

m_{1}v_{1}_{i} + m_{2}v_{2}_{i} = m_{1}v_{1}_{f} + m_{2}v_{2}_{f}

Where:

  • m₁: is the mass of the lab cart = 15 kg
  • m₂: is the <em>mass </em>of the object dropped = 2 kg
  • v_{1}_{i}: is the initial velocity of the<em> lab cart </em>
  • v_{2}_{i}: is the <em>initial velocit</em>y of the <em>object </em>= 0 (it is dropped)
  • v_{1}_{f}: is the final velocity of the<em> lab cart </em>
  • v_{2}_{f}: is the <em>final velocity</em> of the <em>object </em>

Then, the horizontal momentum is:

15v_{1}_{i} + 2*0 = 15v_{1}_{f} + 2v_{2}_{f}

When the object is dropped into the lab cart, the final velocity of the lab cart and the object <u>will be the same</u>, so:

15v_{1}_{i} + 2*0 = v_{f}(15 + 2)

Therefore, the equation 15v_{i} + 2*0 = (15 + 2)v_{f} represents the horizontal momentum (option 3).

Order from biggest to smallest?<br> Milky Way, universe, planets, clusters, and stars
Zinaida [17]
Hello,

The answer is "universe, Milky Way, clusters, stars, planets".

Reason:

The universe would be the biggest because it has all the galaxy's, starts, clusters, and planets into one. Then it would be Milky Way because this is a galaxy that contains: stars, planets, and clusters. Then it would be clusters because that contains stars, or planets in one group. Then be stars because stars are bigger than planets. Then it would be planets. Therefore the order should go like this: <span>Milky Way, universe, planets, clusters, and stars.

If you need anymore help feel free to ask me!

Hope this helps!
