Answer:

The force on the 2.00-uC charge is $36 \times 10^{10} \mathrm{N}$

Explanation:

We know that force between two charges is given by Coulomb’s law,

$\mathrm{F}=\mathrm{k} \frac{q 1 q 2}{r * r}$

Where k = Coulomb’s constant =

$9.0 \times 10^{9} \mathrm{Nm}^{2} \mathrm{C}^{-2}$

And q1 and q2 are the charges given to be = -4.00-uC and 2.00-uC charges

And r = distance between the charges = 20 cm = 0.2 m

Substituting the given values in the formula we get force applied on $2.00\ \mu C$ charge,

F = $36 \times 10^{10} \mathrm{N}$ attractive force which is the required answer.

A point charge q is located at the center of a spherical shell of radius a that has a charge −q uniformly distributed on its sur

muminat

Answer:

a) E = 0

b) $E = \dfrac{k_e \cdot q}{ r^2 }$

Explanation:

The electric field for all points outside the spherical shell is given as follows;

a) $\phi_E = \oint E \cdot dA = \dfrac{\Sigma q_{enclosed}}{\varepsilon _{0}}$

From which we have;

$E \cdot A = \dfrac{{\Sigma Q}}{\varepsilon _{0}} = \dfrac{+q + (-q)}{\varepsilon _{0}} = \dfrac{0}{\varepsilon _{0}} = 0$

E = 0/A = 0

E = 0

b) $\phi_E = \oint E \cdot dA = \dfrac{\Sigma q_{enclosed}}{\varepsilon _{0}}$

$E \cdot A = \dfrac{+q }{\varepsilon _{0}}$

$E = \dfrac{+q }{\varepsilon _{0} \cdot A} = \dfrac{+q }{\varepsilon _{0} \cdot 4 \cdot \pi \cdot r^2}$

By Gauss theorem, we have;

$E\oint dS = \dfrac{q}{\varepsilon _{0}}$

Therefore, we get;

$E \cdot (4 \cdot \pi \cdot r^2) = \dfrac{q}{\varepsilon _{0}}$

The electrical field outside the spherical shell

$E = \dfrac{q}{\varepsilon _{0} \cdot (4 \cdot \pi \cdot r^2) }= \dfrac{q}{4 \cdot \pi \cdot \varepsilon _{0} \cdot r^2 }= \dfrac{q}{(4 \cdot \pi \cdot \varepsilon _{0} )\cdot r^2 }$

$k_e= \dfrac{1}{(4 \cdot \pi \cdot \varepsilon _{0} ) }$

Therefore, we have;

$E = \dfrac{k_e \cdot q}{ r^2 }$

What is the magnitude of an electric field that balances the weight of a plastic sphere of mass 2.1 g that has been charged to -

Liula [17]

Answer:

Electric field, $E=6.86\times 10^6\ N/C$

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of sphere, m = 2.1 g = 0.0021 kg

Charge, $q=-3\ nC=-3\times 10^{-9}\ C$

We need to find the magnitude of electric field that balances the weight of a plastic spheres. So,

$ma=qE$

a = g

$E=\dfrac{mg}{q}$

$E=\dfrac{0.0021\ kg\times 9.8\ m/s^2}{-3\times 10^{-9}\ C}$

$E=6860000\ N/C$

$E=6.86\times 10^6\ N/C$

Hence, the magnitude of electric field that balances its weight is $6.86\times 10^6\ N/C$ . Hence, this is the required solution.

Answer:

Implicit memory

Explanation:

Implicit memory stores skill-related data by repeating an activity that always follows the same pattern. It includes all motor, sensory, and intellectual skills, as well as every form of conditioning. The capacity thus acquired does not depend on consciousness. We are able to perform sometimes complex tasks with our thinking turned to something completely different. This explains why Adam types so fast without even remembering the exact location of the letters on the keyboard.
