The electric field must be zero inside a conductor in electrostatic equilibrium, but not inside an insulator. It turns out that

we can still apply Gauss's law to a Gaussian surface that is entirely within an insulator by replacing the right-hand side of Gauss's law, Qin/eo, with Qin/e, where ε is the permittivity of the material. (Technically, Eo is called the vacuum permittivity.) Suppose that a 70 nC point charge is surrounded by a thin, 32-cm-diameter spherical rubber shell and that the electric field strength inside the rubber shell is 2500 N/C.
What is the permittivity of rubber?

Answer:

The permittivity of rubber is  \epsilon  = 8.703 *10^{-11}

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

     The  magnitude of the point charge is  q_1 =  70 \ nC  =  70 *10^{-9} \  C

      The diameter of the rubber shell is  d = 32 \ cm  =  0.32 \ m

       The Electric field inside the rubber shell is  E =  2500 \ N/ C

The radius of the rubber is  mathematically evaluated as

              r =  \frac{d}{2} =  \frac{0.32}{2}  =  0.16 \ m

Generally the electric field for a point  is in an insulator(rubber) is mathematically represented as

         E =  \frac{Q}{ \epsilon }  *  \frac{1}{4 *  \pi r^2}

Where \epsilon is the permittivity of rubber

    =>     E  *  \epsilon  *  4 * \pi *  r^2 =  Q

   =>      \epsilon  =  \frac{Q}{E *  4 *  \pi *  r^2}

substituting values

            \epsilon  =  \frac{70 *10^{-9}}{2500 *  4 *  3.142 *  (0.16)^2}

            \epsilon  = 8.703 *10^{-11}

25 POINTS FOR CORRECT ANSWER
castortr0y [4]
No.  I do not agree with Stefan.  Quite the contrary.  I disagree
with his description of "<span>angle of incidence" as the angle between
the surface of the mirror and the incoming ray. 

The correct description of "angle of incidence" is </span><span>the angle between
the NORMAL TO the surface of the mirror and the incoming ray. 

Thus, the true angle of incidence is the complement of the angle that
Stefan calculates or measures.</span>

Can someone help me with this Physics question please?
strojnjashka [21]

Answer:

Explanation:

The formula for this, the easy one, is

N=N_0(\frac{1}{2})^{\frac{t}{H} where No is the initial amount of the element, t is the time in years, and H is the half life. Filling in:

N=48.0(\frac{1}{2})^{\frac{49.2}{12.3} and simplifying a bit:

N=48.0(.5)^4 and

N = 48.0(.0625) so

N = 3 mg left after 12.3 years
