A charge Q accumulates on the hollow metallic dome, of radius R, of a Van de Graaff generator. A probe measures the electric fie

ld strength at various points outside the sphere surface. By what factor will the electric field value at the 2R distance be changed if the charge value were increased to (4/3)Q?

Answer:

E'=(3/16)E

Explanation:

The electric field generated by a Van de Graff generator can be taken as the electric field generated by a hollow shell (for distance out of the shell):

E=k\frac{Q}{R^2}

Q: electric charge

K: Coulomb's constant

R: distance in which E is measured.

If the distance is increased to R'=2R, and the charge to Q'=(4/3)Q the new electric field is:

E'=k\frac{Q'}{R'^2}=k\frac{(3/4)Q}{(2R)^2}=\frac{3}{4}k\frac{Q}{4R^2}=\frac{3}{16}k\frac{Q}{R^2}=\frac{3}{16}E

hence, the new electric field E' is 3/16 times the previous electric field E

If only an external force can change the velocity of a body, how can the internal force of the brakes bring a car to rest? 1. It
RoseWind [281]

Answer:

4. It is the force of the road on the tires (an external force) that stops the car.

Explanation:

If there is no friction between the road and the tires, the car won't stop.

You can see this, for example, when there is ice on the road. You can still apply the brakes (internal force), but since there is no friction (external force) the car won't stop.

The force of the brakes on the wheels is not what makes the car stop, it is the friction of the road against still tires that makes it stop.
