A spherical capacitor is formed from two concentric spherical conducting shells separated by vacuum. The inner sphere has a radi

us of ra = 12.3 cm , and the outer sphere has a radius of rb = 15.1 cm . A potential difference of 120 V is applied to the capacitor.
(a) What is the capacitance of the capacitor?
(b) What is the magnitude E1 of the electric field E? at radius r= 12.8cm, just outside the inner sphere?
(c) What is the magnitude of E? at r= 14.7cm, just inside the outer sphere?

Answer: a) 73.41 10^-12 F; b)4.83* 10^3 N/C; c) 3.66 *10^3 N/C

Explanation: To solve this problem we have to consider the following: The Capacity= Charge/Potential Difference

As we know the capacity is  value that depend on the geometry of the capacitor, in our case two concentric spheres.

So Potential Difference between the spheres is given by:

ΔV=-\int\limits^a_b {E} \, dx

Where E = k*Q/ r^2

so we have \int\limits^a_b {K+Q1/r} \, dr

then

Vb-Va=k*Q(1/b-1/a)=kQ (ab/b-a)

Finally using C=Q/ΔV=ab/(k(b-a))

To caclulate the electric firld we first obtain the charge

Q=ΔV*C=120 V*73.41 10^-12 F=8.8 10^-9 C

so E=KQ/r^2 for both values of r

r=12.8 cm ( in meters)

r2=14.7 cm

E(r1)=4.83* 10^3 N/C

E(r2)=3.66 *10^3 N/C

Alona [7]
<span>The correct answer should be B) 63.55. That's because the most precise number is 63.546, but you would write 55 because 46 is rounded that way in the equation. The others are a bit higher, while E is a completely different element, Iodine. This isn't the most precise piece of data because in reality there would be a slight differentiation of +- 0,003u</span>

Vedmedyk [2.9K]

Explanation:

(a) The given figure is a convex lens.

(b) In this figure, the object is placed between F and optical center of a lens. Convex lens is a converging lens. It converges the beam of light falling on it after reflection. The image is formed on the same side of the lens as the object.

The formed image is enlarged and it is virtual and erect.

(i) Type : virtual

(ii) Orientation : upright

(iii) Size : Enlarged

What controls the traits an organism has?
Charra [1.4K]

The Traits an organism displays are ultimately determined by the genes it inherited from its parents, in other words by its genotype. Variant copies of a gene are called alleles, and an individuals genotype is the sum of all the alleles inherited from the parents.
