Sphere 1 with radius R_1 has positive charge q, Sphere 2 with radius 4.50 R_1 is far from sphere 1 and initially uncharged. The

separated spheres are then connected with a wire then uncouth to retain only negligible charge. (a) What is the ratio V_1/V_2 of the final potentials of the spheres? (b) what fraction of q ends up on sphere? (c) What fraction of q ends up on sphere 2? (d) What is the ratio q_1/q_2 of the surface charge densities of the spheres?

Answer:

Explanation:

capacitance of sphere 2 will be 4.5 times sphere 1

a ) when spheres are in contact they will have same potential finally . So

V_1 / V_2 = 1

b )

Charge will be distributed in the ratio of their capacity

charge on sphere1 = q  x 1 / ( 1 + 4.5 )

= q / 5.5

fraction = 1 / 5.5

c ) charge on sphere 2

= q x 4.5 / 5.5

fraction = 4.5 / 5.5

d ) surface charge density of sphere 1

= q /( 5.5 x A ) where A is surface area

surface charge density of sphere 2

= q x 4.5 /( 5.5 x 4.5² A ) where A is surface area

= q  /( 5.5 x 4.5 A )

q_1/q_2 = 4.5

A metal rod 80cm long lengthens by 0.090cm when its temperature rises by 93.6$^o$C. What is the linear expansivity of the metal
alexandr1967 [171]

Answer: (b)0.000012/k

Explanation:

The linear expansion of the metal rod is given by

\Delta L= L_0 \alpha \Delta T

where

\Delta L=0.090 cm is the linear expansion

L_0 = 80 cm is the initial length of the rod

\alpha is the linear expansivity

\Delta T=93.6^{\circ}C=93.6 K is the increase in temperature

By re-arranging the equation, we find the linear expansivity:

\alpha = \frac{\Delta L}{L_0 \Delta T}=\frac{0.090 cm}{(80 cm)(93.6K)}=0.000012 K^{-1}

Which of the following statements explains how total time spent in the air is affected as a projectile's angle of launch is incr
charle [14.2K]

Answer:

Therefore letter <u>C is the correct answer.</u>

Explanation:

In a projectile motion the total time in the air can be calculated using the following equation:

We analyze the y-component motion.

v_{fy}=v_{iy}-gt

When the final velocity (v(f)) is equal to zero we calculate the upward time and multiplying it by 2 we find the total time in the air. So we will have:

t_{tot}=2\frac{v_{iy}}{g}

t_{tot}=2\frac{v_{i}sin(\theta)}{g}

We can see that the <u>total time is directly proportional to the angle</u>, then when <u>θ increase t increase.</u>

Therefore letter C is the correct answer.

I hope it helps you!

In which type of collision is no kinetic energy converted to heat or sound<br> energy?
mezya [45]

Answer:

elastic collision

An elastic collision occurs when the two objects "bounce" apart when they collide. Two rubber balls are a good example. In an elastic collision, both momentum and kinetic energy are conserved. Almost no energy is lost to sound, heat, or deformation.

I hope it's helpful!

S.I. Units Ampere is use for what? ​
lawyer [7]

The ampere (symbol: A) is the SI base unit of electric current equal to one coulomb per second.

The ampere is that constant current which, if maintained in two straight parallel conductors of infinite length, of negligible circular cross section, and placed 1 meter apart in vacuum, would produce between these conductors a force equal to 2 times 10–7 newton per meter of length.

Electric current is the time rate of change or displacement of electric charge.

One ampere represents the rate of 1 coulomb of charge per second.

The ampere is defined first (it is a base unit, along with the meter, the second, and the kilogram), without reference to the quantity of charge.

The unit of charge, the coulomb, is defined to be the amount of charge displaced by a one ampere current in the time of one second.

This is your answer friend. Hope it helps you.
