To solve this problem we will use the concept of electric field, with which we will make the proportional comparison as we move away from the center. So we have the maximum electric field is given as,

E_{max} = \frac{kQ}{R^2}

Where,

Q = Charge

R = Radius

Electric field inside the sphere is given as,

\frac{kQ}{R^2} = \frac{1}{2}\frac{kQ}{R^2}

R'=\sqrt{2}R

R' = 3\sqrt{2}

R' = 4.2cm

Electric field outside the sphere is given as,

\frac{kQ}{2R^2} = \frac{1}{2}\frac{kQ}{R^3}r

\frac{1}{2} = \frac{r'}{R}

\Rightarrow \frac{R}{2} = \frac{3}{2} = 1.5cm

Therefore the possible values are 3.5cm and 9.9cm: The correct answer is D.

How much time will elapse between seeing and hearing an event?
julia-pushkina [17]

Depends on how far away the event is and what the temperature is as this affects the speed of sound.

For example, let's say you're 600 meters away and the temperature has no affect.

The speed of sound would be roughly 340 m/s so the time it would take to hear the sound would be 600/340 = 1.76 seconds

The speed of light (c) is 3.0 X 10^8 m/s so the time it would take to see the event would be 600/3 X 10^8 = 2 X 10^-7

Subtract: 1.76 - (2 X 10^-7) = approx. 1.76

The bohr shift on the oxygen-hemoglobin dissociation curve is produced by changes in
Alisiya [41]

Answer:

THE BOHR SHIFT ON THE OXYGEN-HEMOGLOBIN DISSOCIATION CURVE IS PRODUCED BY CHANGES IN THE CONCENTRATION OF CARBON IV OXIDE.

Explanation:

The oxygen-hemoglobin dissociation curve shows the relationship between the saturated hemoglobin concentration and oxygen. It shows how the blood hold on to and releases oxygen. The Bohr shift can occur as a result of changes in concentration of carbon iv oxide and other factors such as acidity or pH, 2,3-bisphosphoglycerate, exercise, also temperature of the body. These factors contributes to the right or left shift on the curve. Carbon iv oxide prevents the binding of oxygen to the hemoglobin. The is because hemoglobin has the same binding site for both oxygen and carbon iv oxide. Carbon iv oxide increase also leads to a change in the pH of the blood through the formation of bicarbonate ion. Bicarbonate ion formation causes reduced acidity and therefore lead a shift in the dissociation curve for more of the carbon iv oxide to be excreted as hemoglobin's affinity for oxygen reduces. And when the concentration of carbon iv oxide is low in the plasma, acidity increases and this provides more affinity for oxygen by the hemoglobin.

If we double the frequency of a system undergoing simple harmonic motion, which of the following statements about that system ar
AnnyKZ [126]

Answer:

a. The angular frequency is doubled.

e. The period is reduced to one-half of what it was.

Explanation:

Angular frequency is given as;

ω = 2πf

\frac{\omega _1}{f_1} = \frac{\omega _2}{f_2}

when the frequency is doubled

\frac{\omega _1}{f_1} = \frac{\omega _2}{(2f_1)} \\\\\omega _1 = \frac{\omega _2}{2}\\\\\omega _2 = 2\omega _1

Thus, the angular frequency will be doubled.

Amplitude in simple harmonic motion is the maximum displacement.

Frequency is related to period in simple harmonic motion as given in the equation below;

f = \frac{1}{T} \\\\f_1T_1= f_2T_2\\\\T_2 = \frac{f_1T_1}{f_2}

when the frequency is doubled;

T_2 = \frac{f_1T_1}{2f_1} \\\\T_2 = \frac{T_1}{2}

Thus, the period will be reduced to one-half of what it was.
