Answer:

1.06 m

Explanation:

Since the charge is at the centre of two concentric spheres, we use the formula for electric potential due to a point charge. V = kq/r. Let r₁ be the radius of the sphere with potential, V₁ = 200 V and  r₂ be the radius of the sphere with potential, V₂ = 82.0 V. From V = kq/r, r = kq/V. So that r₁ = kq/V₁ and r₂ = kq/V₂. The magnitude of the difference r₁ - r₂ is the distance between the two surfaces. q the charge equals 1.63 × 10⁻⁸ C

r₂ - r₁ = kq/V₂ - kq/V₁ = kq(1/V₂ - 1/V₁) = 1.63 × 10⁻⁸ × 9 × 10⁹ (1/82 -1/200) m =  1.63 × 10⁻⁸ × 9 × 10⁹ (0.0122 - 0.005) = 1.63 × 10⁻⁸ × 9 × 10⁹(0.0072) m = 1.06 m

The distance between them is 1.06 m

A source charge generates an electric field of 4286 N/C at a distance of 2. 5 m. What is the magnitude of the source charge? (Us
svp [43]

The magnitude of the source charge is 3 μC which generates 4286 N/C of the electric field. Option B is correct.

What does Gauss Law state?

It states that the electric flux across any closed surface is directly proportional to the net electric charge enclosed by the surface.

Q = \dfrac {ER^2}k

Where,

E = electric force = 4286 N/C

k = Coulomb constant = 8.99 \times  10^9 \rm\ N m ^2 /C ^2

Q\\
     = charges = ?

r = distance of separation = 2.5 m

Put the values in the formula,

Q  = \dfrac {4286\times  2.5 ^2}{8.99 \times  10^9 }\\\\
Q  = 3\rm \  \mu C

Therefore, the magnitude of the source charge is 3 μC.

Which statement best describes the effect of the magnet on the block of
barxatty [35]

The magnet (south pole of the magnet) has magnetized the right side of the block.

<h3>Direction of electric field in the magnetic material</h3>

The direction of electric field of the atom of the magnetic material is unpolarized.

From the diagram in the image, the right hand side of the magnetic material is being attracted to south pole of the magnet.

Thus, we can conclude that, the magnet has magnetized the right side of the block.

Answer:

a) variation of the energy is equal to the work of the friction force

b) W = Em_{f} -Em₀ ,  c) he conservation of mechanical energy

Explanation:

a) In an analysis of this problem we can use the energy law, where at the moment the mechanical energy is started it is totally potential, and at the lowest point it is totally kinetic, we can suppose two possibilities, that the friction is zero and therefore by equalizing the energy we set the velocity at the lowest point.

 Another case is if the friction is different from zero and in this case the variation of the energy is equal to the work of the friction force, in value it will be lower than in the calculations.

b) the calluses that he would use are to hinder the worker's friction force and energy

          W = Em_{f} -Em₀

          N d = ½ m v² - m g (y₂-y₁)

          y₂-y₁ = 35 -10 = 25m

c) if there is no friction, the physical principle is the conservation of mechanical energy

 If there is friction, the principle is that the non-conservative work is equal to the variation of the energy
