A conducting spherical shell with inner radius a and outer radius b has a positive point charge +Q at the center in the empty re

gion. The excess charge on the conducting shell is -3Q. (a) What are the charges on the inner and outer surface of the shell? [2] (b)Derive the expression for E field as a function of distance r and Q for r b. [1.5] (c) Sketch E as a function of r from the center outward. [1] (d) How would the answers to part (a) and (b) (part (b) only for ab) change if the charge Q was not at the center inside the shell but away from it but still in the empty region? [1.5]

Answer:

a) q_inner = -Q

, q_outer = -2Q

b)    E₁ = k Q / r²        r<a

       E₂ = 0               a<r<b

       E₃ = - k 2Q/r²     r>b

d)   the charge continues inside the spherical shell, the results do not change

Explanation:

a) The point load in the center induces a load on the inner surface of the shell with constant opposite sign  

q_inner = -Q  

the outer shell of the shell the load is  

q_outer = -3 Q + Q  

q_outer = -2Q

b) To find the electric field again, use Gauss's law,  

We define as a Gaussian surface a sphere  

Ф = E. dA = q_{int}/ε₀

in this case the electric field lines and the radii of the sphere are parallel, so the sclar product is reduced to the algegraic product  

E A = q_{int}/ε₀

the area of ​​a sphere is  

A = 4 π r²  

E = 1 / 4πε₀  Q/ r²  

k = 1 / 4πε₀  

let's apply this expression to the different radii

i) r <a  

in this case the load inside is the point load  

q_{int}= + Q  

E₁ = k Q / r²

ii) the field inside the shell  

a <r <b  

As the sphere is conductive, so that it is in electrostatic equilibrium, there can be no field within it.  

E₂ = 0

iii)  r>b

   q_{int}  = Q- 3Q = -2Q

    E₃ = k (-2Q/r²)

     E₃ = - k 2Q/r²

c) see  attached

d) as the charge continues inside the spherical shell, the results do not change, since the lcharge inside remains the same and it does not matter its precise location, but remains within the Gaussian surface

A car accelerates uniformly from rest to speed 6.6 m/s in 6.5 s .Find the distance the car travel during this time .​
kirill [66]

Answer:

<em>The distance the car traveled is 21.45 m</em>

Explanation:

<u>Motion With Constant Acceleration </u>

It occurs when an object changes its velocity at the same rate thus the acceleration is constant.

The relation between the initial and final speeds is:

v_f=v_o+at\qquad\qquad [1]

Where:

a   = acceleration

vo = initial speed

vf  = final speed

t    = time

The distance traveled by the object is given by:

\displaystyle x=v_o.t+\frac{a.t^2}{2}\qquad\qquad [2]

Solving [1] for a:

\displaystyle a=\frac{v_f-v_o}{t}

Substituting the given data vo=0, vf=6.6 m/s, t=6.5 s:

\displaystyle a=\frac{6.6-0}{6.5}

a = 1.015\ m/s^2

The distance is now calculated with [2]:

\displaystyle x=0*6.5+\frac{1.015*6.5^2}{2}

x = 21.45 m

The distance the car traveled is 21.45 m

A 0.500 kg bullet is fired from a gun at 25.0 m/s, how much kinetic energy does it have?
slamgirl [31]

Considering the definition of kinetic energy, the bullet has a kinetic energy of 156.25 J.

<h3>Kinetic energy</h3>

Kinetic energy is a form of energy. It is defined as the energy associated with bodies that are in motion and this energy depends on the mass and speed of the body.

Kinetic energy is defined as the amount of work necessary to accelerate a body of a given mass and in a rest position, until it reaches a given speed. Once this point is reached, the amount of accumulated kinetic energy will remain the same unless there is a change in speed or the body returns to its rest state by applying a force to it.

The kinetic energy is represented by the following expression:

Ec= ½ mv²

Where:

  • Ec is the kinetic energy, which is measured in Joules (J).
  • m is the mass measured in kilograms (kg).
  • v is the speed measured in meters over seconds (m/s).

<h3>Kinetic energy of a bullet</h3>

In this case, you know:

  • m= 0.500 kg
  • v= 25 m/s

Replacing in the definition of kinetic energy:

Ec= ½ ×0.500 kg× (25 m/s)²

Solving:

<u><em>Ec= 156.25 J</em></u>

Finally, the bullet has a kinetic energy of 156.25 J.
