Answer:

Option (e) = The charge can be located anywhere since flux does not depend on the position of the charge as long as it is inside the sphere.

Explanation:

So, we are given the following set of infomation in the question given above;

=> "spherical Gaussian surface of radius R centered at the origin."

=> " A charge Q is placed inside the sphere."

So, the question is that if we are to maximize the magnitude of the flux of the electric field through the Gaussian surface, the charge should be located where?

The CORRECT option (e) that is " The charge can be located anywhere since flux does not depend on the position of the charge as long as it is inside the sphere." Is correct because of the reason given below;

REASON: because the charge is "covered" and the position is unknown, the flux will continue to be constant.

Also, the Equation that defines Gauss' law does not specify the position that the charge needs to be located, therefore it can be anywhere.

What is the formula that describes the magnitude of impulse on an object?
vladimir1956 [14]

Answer:

Option C.

Impulse = mass × change in velocity

Explanation:

Impulse is defined by the following the following formula:

Impulse = force (F) × time (t)

Impulse = Ft

From Newton's second law of motion,

Force = change in momentum /time

Cross multiply

Force × time = change in momentum

Recall:

Impulse = Force × time

Thus,

Impulse = change in momentum

Recall:

Momentum = mass x velocity

Momentum = mv

Chang in momentum = mass × change in velocity

Change in momentum = mΔv

Thus,

Impulse = change in momentum

Impulse = mass × change in velocity

A parallel plate capacitor is charged by connecting it to a battery. After the steady state is reached, the electric energy stor
Vladimir79 [104]

Answer: C. The amount of work needed to charge the capacitor is UE, because when integrating the equation W = integral qdV with the correct limits yield the equation for the energy stored on a capacitor, UE = 1/2qV.

Explanation:

The claim about the amount of work that is needed to charge the capacitor and give evidence to support this claim is option C "The amount of work needed to charge the capacitor is UE, because when integrating the equation W = integral qdV with the correct limits yield the equation for the energy stored on a capacitor, UE = 1/2qV".

Option C is the correct answer because when we a capacitor is being charged, the amount of work that's being stored as a potential energy.
