Answer:

E=0 at r < R;

E=\frac{1}{4\pi\epsilon}\frac{Q}{r^{2}} at 2R > r > R;

E=\frac{1}{4\pi\epsilon} \frac{2Q}{r^{2}} at r >= 2R

Explanation:

Since we have a spherically symmetric system of charged bodies, the best approach is to use Guass' Theorem which is given by,

\int {E} \, dA=\frac{Q_{enclosed}}{\epsilon} (integral over a closed surface)

where,

E = Electric field

Q_{enclosed} = charged enclosed within the closed surface

\epsilon = permittivity of free space

Now, looking at the system we can say that a sphere(concentric with the conducting and non-conducting spheres) would be the best choice of a Gaussian surface. Let the radius of the sphere be r .

at r < R,

Q_{enclosed} = 0 and hence E = 0 (since the sphere is conducting, all the charges get repelled towards the surface)

at 2R > r > R,

Q_{enclosed} = Q,

therefore,

E\times4\pi r^{2}=\frac{Q_{enclosed}}{\epsilon}      

(Since the system is spherically symmetric, E is constant at any given r and so we have taken it out of the integral. Also, the surface integral of a sphere gives us the area of a sphere which is equal to 4\pi r^{2})

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

at r >= 2R

Q_{enclosed} = 2Q

Hence, by similar calculations, we get,

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

A car slows down from 80 km/h to 60 km/h in 2 seconds.
Andreyy89

Answer:

please mark brainlist

Explanation:

Initial speed   u=80 km/h=80×185=22.22 m/s

Final speed    v=60 km/h=60×185=16.67 m/s

Using   v=u+at

Or   16.67=22.22+α×5

⟹ a=−1.1 m/s2

A Ferris wheel has diameter of 10 m. It rotates at a uniform rate and makes one revolution in 8.0 seconds. A person weighing 670
Nikolay [14]

Answer:  459.14 N

Explanation:

from the question, we have

diameter = 10 m

radius (r)  = 5 m

weight (Fw) = 670 N

time (t) = 8 seconds

Circular motion has centripetal force and acceleration pointing perpendicular and inwards of the path, therefore we apply the equation below

∑ F = F c =  F w − Fn ..............equation 1

Fn = Fw − Fc = mg − (mv^2 / r) ...................equation 2

substituting the value of v as (2πr / T) we now have

Fn = mg − (m(2πr / T )^2) / r

Fn= mg − (4(π^2)mr / T^2)   ..........equation 3

Fw (mass of the person) = mg

therefore m = Fw / g

                m = 670 / 9.8 = 68.367 kg

now substituting  our values into equation 3

Fn = 670 - ( (4 x (π^2) x 68.367 x 5 ) / 8^2)

Fn = 670 - 210.86

Fn = 459.14 N
