Consider three identical metal spheres, A, B, and C. Sphere A carries a charge of +6q. Sphere B carries a charge of -q. Sphere C

carries no net charge. Spheres A and B are touched together and then separated. Sphere C is then touched to sphere A and separated from it. Lastly, sphere C is touched to sphere B and separated from it. (a) What is the ratio of the final charge on sphere C to q? What is the ratio of the final total charge on the three spheres to q (b) before they are allowed to touch each other and (c) after they have touched?

Answer:

Part a)

Final charge on C : q = 1.875

Part b)

Ratio for A = 6 : 1.25

Ratio for B = -1 : 1.875

Ratio for C = 0

Explanation:

When two identical metal sphere are connected together then the charge on them will get equally divided on both after connecting them by conducting wire

So here we have

q_A = + 6q

q_B = -q

q_c = 0

Step 1: We connected A and B and then separate them

so we have

q_A' = q_B' = 2.5q

Step 2: We connected A and C and then separate them

so we have

q_A'' = q_c' = 1.25q

Step 3: We connected B and C and then separate them

so we have

q_c'' = q_b'' = 1.875q

When you lift a bowling ball with a force of 61.1 N, the ball accelerates upward with an acceleration a. If you lift with a forc
gtnhenbr [62]

Answer:

the weight of the ball is w = 51.94 N ( mass = 5.3 kg)

Explanation:

Following Newton's second law:

net force = mass * acceleration = weight/gravity * acceleration

then denoting 1 and 2 as the first and second lift

F₁ - w= w/g *a₁

F₂ -w = w/g *a₂ = w/g * 2.07a

dividing both equations

(F₂- w)/(F₁ -w)= 2.07

(F₂- w) = 2.07 * (F₁ -w)

1.07*w = 2.07*F₁ - F₂

w = (2.07*F₁ - F₂ )/ 1.07

replacing values

w = (2.07*61.1 N - 70.9 N )/ 1.07  = 51.94 N

then the weight of the ball is w = 51.94 N ( mass = 5.3 kg)

A physics student tests the theory of projectile motion by leaping off a 225 meter tall building. She runs off the building hori
tamaranim1 [39]
In this item, we are given with the x-component of the velocity. The y-component is equal to 0 m/s. The time it takes for it to reach the volume can be related through the equation,

   d = V₀t + 0.5gt²

Substituting the known values,

  225 = (0 m/s)(t) + (0.5)(9.8)(t²)

Simplifying,
 
   t = 6.776 s

To determine the distance of the student from the edge of the building, we multiply the x-component by the calculated time.


   range = (12.5 m/s)(6.776 s)

   range = 84.7 m

<em>Answer: 84.7 m</em>

A transformer is designed to provide 6 V from a 150 V supply. If the primary coil has 1000 turns, how many turns does the second
zavuch27 [327]
The applicable relationship is N1/N2 = V1/V2, meaning the ratio of primary voltage to secondary voltage is equal to the ratio of primary turns to secondary turns.

Here N1 = 1000, V1 = 250, V2 = 400V and N2 = TBD.

Rewriting the above relationship, N2 = N1 V2/V1 = 1000 x 400/250 = 1600 turns.
