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

A vector is parallel to the y axis, what is it x component?<br>​
slavikrds [6]

Answer:

Explanation:

A vector is parallel to the y axis .

Let its magnitude be A . So the vector can be represented as A j .

where i and j are unit vectors in x and y axis direction .

The x component of A j will be dot product of A j with i

The x component of A j = A j . i

= A x 0      [  Since j . i = 0 ]

= 0

The potential difference across a and b is 15 v. determine the electrical charge on the 3 μf capacitor?
Slav-nsk [51]

The potential difference across a and b is 15 v. determine the electrical charge on the 3 μf capacitor will be 45 *  10^{-6} C

Capacitance, property of an electric conductor, or set of conductors, that is measured by the amount of separated electric charge that can be stored on it per unit change in electrical potential. Capacitance also implies an associated storage of electrical energy.

Charge (Q) stored in a capacitor is the product of its capacitance (C) and the voltage (V) applied to it. The capacitance of a capacitor should always be a constant, known value. So we can adjust voltage to increase or decrease the cap's charge. More voltage means more charge, less voltage... less charge.

charge = capacitance * voltage

Q = CV

   =  3  * 10^{-6} * 15 v

   = 45 *  10^{-6} C

In order to transmit information via radio waves, the waves need to be changed somehow. For car radios this can happen in two wa
laila [671]

Answer: amplitude

Explanation: This describes the maximum amount of the displacement of a particle from it rest position. Usually, it is measured in metres

Since we are considering AM which is amplitude modulation, a technique used in electronic communication, most commonly for broadcasting information through a radio carrier wave. In amplitude modulation, the amplitude (signal strength) of the carrier wave is diversified in proportion to that of the message signal being broadcasted.
