Electric charge is uniformly distributed inside a nonconducting sphere of radius 0.30 m. The electric field at a point P, which

is 0.50 m from the center of the sphere, is 15,000 N/C and is directed radially outward. At what distance from the center of the sphere does the electric field have the same magnitude as it has at P?

Answer:

The point that would have the same electric field as P is  z = 0.108 \ m from the center of the sphere.

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

  The  radius of the sphere is  r = 0.30 \ m

   The Electric field at point P is  E = 15000N/C  

    The distance of point P from the center is D = 0.50 \ m

Since the electric is directed radially outward it mean this it would be felt both inside and outside the sphere

The Electric field inside the sphere at a distance z is mathematically represented as

            E_i = \frac{k q x}{r^3}

where k is the coulomb's constant with a  value 9 *10^9  \ kg \cdot m^3 \cdot s^{-4 } \cdort A^{-2 }

            q is the charge

             

The Electric field inside the sphere at a distance D  is mathematically represented as            

                E _o = \frac{k q}{D^2}

To obtain the point of equal electric field

           E_i = E_o

          \frac{k q z}{r^3}  =  \frac{kq }{D^2}

 We have that

             z = \frac{r^3 }{D^2}

Substituting values

                z = \frac{(0.3)^3 }{(0.5)^2}

                z = 0.108 \ m

Which of the following is true about Viscosity of liquids:
White raven [17]
Viscosity of liquids is essentially the 'thickness' of the liquid. For instance, honey and water have different viscosities. Honey has a higher one and therefore, liquids with high viscosity do not flow as well as liquids with low viscosity (water).

Infrared waves from the sun are what make our skin feel warm on a sunny day. If an infrared wave has a frequency of 3.0 x 1012 H
djyliett [7]

Answer:

The wavelength of the infrared wave is <u>0.0001 m</u>.

Explanation:

Given:

Frequency of an infrared wave is, f=3.0\times 10^{12}\ Hz

We know that, infrared waves are electromagnetic waves. All electromagnetic waves travel with the same speed and their magnitude is equal to the speed of light in air.

So, speed of infrared waves coming from the Sun travels with the speed of light and thus its magnitude is given as:

v=c=3.0\times 10^8\ m/s

Where, 'v' is the speed of infrared waves and 'c' is the speed of light.

Now, we have a formula for the speed of any wave and is given as:

v=f\lambda

Where, \lambda \to \textrm{Wavelength of infrared wave}

Now, rewriting the above formula in terms of wavelength, \lambda, we get:

\lambda=\dfrac{v}{f}

Now, plug in 3.0\times 10^8 for 'v', 3.0\times 10^{12} for 'f' and solve for  \lambda. This gives,

\lambda=\frac{3.0\times 10^8}{3.0\times 10^{12}}\\\\\lambda=0.0001\ m

Therefore, the wavelength of the infrared wave is 0.0001 m.

You and your friend live in different states and plant identical hydrangea bulbs in your garden. When they bloom, you send each
Whitepunk [10]

Answer:

sample. rewrite in your own words if you'd like.

Explanation:

Since the hydrangeas are changing color depending on whether the soil is acidic or basic, they must have an indicator. This means that any hydrangea planted in acidic soil will have blue flowers and any hydrangea planted in basic soil will have pink. One common indicator present in many plants is anthocyanin, so maybe hydrangeas contain that chemical.
