Consider three identical metal spheres, A, B, and C. Sphere A carries a charge of +6q. Sphere B caries a charge of-2q. Sphere C
miskamm [114]
<h2>20. How much charge is on sphere B after A and B touch and are separated?</h2><h3>Answer:</h3>

\boxed{q_{B}=+2q}

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

We'll solve this problem by using the concept of electric potential or simply called potential V, which is <em>the energy per unit charge, </em>so the potential V at any point in an electric field with a test charge q_{0} at that point is:

V=\frac{U}{q_{0}}

The potential V due to a single point charge q is:

V=k\frac{q}{r}

Where k is an electric constant, q is value of point charge and r is  the distance from point charge to  where potential is measured. Since, the three spheres A, B and C are identical, they have the same radius r. Before the sphere A and B touches we have:

V_{A}=k\frac{q_{A}}{r_{A}} \\ \\ V_{B}=k\frac{q_{B}}{r_{A}} \\ \\ But: \\ \\ \ r_{A}=r_{B}=r

When they touches each other the potential is the same, so:

V_{A}= V_{B} \\ \\ k\frac{q_{A}}{r}=k\frac{q_{B}}{r} \\ \\ \boxed{q_{A}=q_{B}}

From the principle of conservation of charge <em>the algebraic sum of all the electric charges in any closed system is constant. </em>So:

q_{A}+q_{B}=q \\ \\ q_{A}=+6q \ and \ q_{B}=-2q \\ \\ So: \\ \\ \boxed{q_{A}+q_{B}=+4q}

Therefore:

(1) \ q_{A}=q_{B} \\ \\ (2) \ q_{A}+q_{B}=+4q \\ \\ (1) \ into \ (2): \\ \\ q_{A}+q_{A}=+4q \therefore 2q_{A}=+4q \therefore \boxed{q_{A}=q_{B}=+2q}

So after A and B touch and are separated the charge on sphere B is:

\boxed{q_{B}=+2q}

<h2>21. How much charge ends up on sphere C?</h2><h3>Answer:</h3>

\boxed{q_{C}=+1.5q}

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

First: A and B touches and are separated, so the charges are:

q_{A}=q_{B}=+2q

Second:  C is then touched to sphere A and separated from it.

Third: C is to sphere B and separated from it

So we need to calculate the charge that ends up on sphere C at the third step, so we also need to calculate step second. Therefore, from the second step:

Here q_{A}=+2q and C carries no net charge or q_{C}=0. Also, r_{A}=r_{C}=r

V_{A}=k\frac{q_{A}}{r} \\ \\ V_{C}=k\frac{q_{C}}{r}

Applying the same concept as the previous problem when sphere touches we have:

k\frac{q_{A}}{r} =k\frac{q_{C}}{r} \\ \\ q_{A}=q_{C}

For the principle of conservation of charge:

q_{A}+q_{C}=+2q \\ \\ q_{A}=q_{C}=+q

Finally, from the third step:

Here q_{B}=+2q \ and \ q_{C}=+q. Also, r_{B}=r_{C}=r

V_{B}=k\frac{q_{B}}{r} \\ \\ V_{C}=k\frac{q_{C}}{r}

When sphere touches we have:

k\frac{q_{B}}{r} =k\frac{q_{C}}{r} \\ \\ q_{B}=q_{C}

For the principle of conservation of charge:

q_{B}+q_{C}=+3q \\ \\ q_{A}=q_{C}=+1.5q

So the charge that ends up on sphere C is:

q_{C}=+1.5q

<h2>22. What is the total charge on the three spheres before they are allowed to touch each other.</h2><h3>Answer:</h3>

+4q

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

Before they are allowed to touch each other we have that:

q_{A}=+6q \\ \\ q_{B}=-2q \\ \\ q_{C}=0

Therefore, for the principle of conservation of charge <em>the algebraic sum of all the electric charges in any closed system is constant, </em>then this can be expressed as:

q_{A}+q_{B}+q_{C}=+6q -2q +0 \\ \\ \therefore q_{A}+q_{B}+q_{C}=+4q

Lastly, the total charge on the three spheres before they are allowed to touch each other is:

+4q

A car has a mass of 1.00 × 103 kilograms, and it has an acceleration of 4.5 meters/second2. What is the net force on the car?
aksik [14]

ANSWER


C. F=4.5 \times10^3. newtons


EXPLANATION


According to Newton's second law,



F_{net}=ma, where



m=1.00\times 10^3kg is the mass measured in kilograms.


and


a=4.5ms^{2} is the acceleration in metres per second square.



We substitute these values to obtain,


F=1.00\times10^3 \times 4.5.



We rearrange to get,


F=1.00\times4.5 \times10^3.


We multiply out the first two numbers and leave our answer in standard form to get,



F=4.5 \times10^3 N.



The correct answer is C

The volumes of a sample of lead and a sample of platinum are the same: 2 cm3. The density of lead is 11.3 g/cm3 and the density
Vlad1618 [11]

The answer is C. The mass of the platinum sample is greater than the mass of the lead sample. As I explained in a previous answer, if they are the same volume, but one is heavier, then it must be more dense. In this particular example, the platinum is more dense than the lead, and therefore has more mass.

Use the terms "force", "weight", "mass", and "inertia" to explain why it is easier to tackle a 220 lb football player than a 288
Tomtit [17]
<span><u>Answer </u>
The mass of 220 lb football has less than 288 lb football. So, it will be easier to move it since it will require less force. The heavy football will have a bigger momentum. Since 288 lb has more weight than 220 lb, it will have bigger inertia making it difficult for the players to stop it.
This makes it easier to tackle 220 lb football than 288 lb football.
