Two identical conducting spheres, A and B, carry equal charge. They are separated by a distance much larger than their diameters

. A third identical conducting sphere, C, is uncharged. Sphere C is first touched to A, then to B, and finally removed.
1. As a result, the electrostatic force between A and B, which was originally F, becomes ________:A. F/2B. F/4C. 3F/8D. F/16E. 0

Answer:

C. \frac{3F}{8}

Explanation:

Let initial charges on both spheres be,q

F=\frac{Kq^2}{d^2}   \ \ \  \ \ \  \ \ \  \ \_i

When the sphere C is touched by A, the final charges on both will be,\frac{q}{2}

#Now, when C is touched by B, the final charges on both of them will be:

q_c=q_d=\frac{q/2+q}{2}\\\\=\frac{3q}{4}\\

Now the force between A and B is calculated as:

F\prime=\frac{k\times\frac{q}{2}\times \frac{3q}{4}}{d^2}\\F\prime=\frac{3F}{8}

Hence the electrostatic force becomes 3F/8

Which data set has the smallest standard deviation?
777dan777 [17]
The answer would be B.
<span>
Standard deviation basically measures how spread out the values are. Without solving, you can easily tell which one among your choices have a smaller deviation. The closer the values are to each other the smaller the standard deviation. The values of choice B are the closest together, so you can assume that they have the smallest standard deviation. </span>

A brand of earplugs reduces the sound intensity level by 27 dB.By what factor do these earplugs reduce the acoustic intensity?
Fofino [41]

Answer:

Explanation:

27dB = 2.7 B

So I / I₀ = 10⁻²°⁷ ,  I₀ is intensity of main sound and I is intensity after reduction.

= 1.99 X 10⁻³

So intensity will reduce by 1.99 X 10⁻³  .

What is the voltage of the electrochemical cell written as: Cu(s) | Cu2+(aq) || Mg2+(aq) | Mg(s)?
erma4kov [3.2K]
Thank you for posting your question here at brainly. Feel free to ask more questions.  
<span><span>The best and most correct answer among the choices provided by the question is  </span>B.-2.71 V.</span>  
Mg2+(aq) + 2e- -> Mg(s) E=-2.37 V  

Cu2+(aq) + 2e- -> Cu(s) E =+ 0.34 V  

Since Cu is acting as the anode, the equation needs to be reversed.  

Cu(s) -> Cu2+(aq) + 2e- E =- 0.34 V  

Ecell= -2.37 V+ (- 0.34 V) = -2.71 V   <span><span>
