A sphere of radius R has total charge Q. The volume charge density (C/m3) within the sphere is rho(r)=C/r2, where C is a constan

t to be determined. Part A The charge within a small volume dV is dq=rhodV. The integral of rhodV over the entire volume of the sphere is the total charge Q. Use this fact to determine the constant C in terms of Q and R. Hint: Let dV be a spherical shell of radius r and thickness dr. What is the volume of such a shell? Express your answer in terms of the variables Q and R.

Answer: C = Q/4πR

Explanation:

Volume(V) of a sphere = 4πr^3

Charge within a small volume 'dV' is given by:

dq = ρ(r)dV

ρ(r) = C/r^2

Volume(V) of a sphere = 4/3(πr^3)

dV/dr = (4/3)×3πr^2

dV = 4πr^2dr

Therefore,

dq = ρ(r)dV ; dq =ρ(r)4πr^2dr

dq = C/r^2[4πr^2dr]

dq = 4Cπdr

FOR TOTAL CHANGE 'Q', we integrate dq

∫dq = ∫4Cπdr at r = R and r = 0

∫4Cπdr = 4Cπr

Q = 4Cπ(R - 0)

Q = 4CπR - 0

Q = 4CπR

C = Q/4πR

The value of C in terms of Q and R is [Q/4πR]

How do amps correlate to brightness?
Nezavi [6.7K]
The watts determine the brightness. Watt is the unit of Power. And Power is equal to Voltage x Amps (current). So both the current and voltage determine the brightness.

The formula for electrical power is p = i v. Which is the equivalent equation solved for i? startfraction p over v endfraction =
Anettt [7]

The equivalent formula for p = iv is the startfraction p over v endfraction = i

In physics, power measures the rate of transfer of electrical energy through a circuit per unit of time. It is denoted by P and is measured using the SI unit of power (watts or 1 joule/second). Electrical energy is usually supplied by batteries and produced by generators.

There are three types of power, true, reactive, and apparent, which are related in trigonometric form. This is called the power triangle. A power triangle that relates apparent power to active and reactive power. Power is measured in watts. One watt equals one joule per second.

What is the difference between contact forces and non-contact forces?
SpyIntel [72]

Here is the difference between contact forces and non-contact forces:

Contact forces are forces that result from two objects coming into physical contact with each other. Non-contact forces are forces that result from the interaction of objects that are not in contact with each other.

If our solar system's Sun was half the mass as it is now, what would happen to the orbit of the Earth
avanturin [10]
Essentially, an increase in mass means an increase in gravity, while a decrease in mass means a decrease in gravity. So if the Sun spontaneously lost half its mass (gasp, shudder, the horror!) then its gravitational pull on Earth would lessen as well, ultimately changing the very nature of our orbit around the Sun.
Thank You!
