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

What name is given to a fuel made from living organisms or their waste??
Anni [7]
The name given to a fuel made from living organisms or their waste is a fossil fuel. Fossil fuels, in the form of oil and coal, have been utilised by mankind for approximately 100 years in order to produce energy. Today, there is a shift to more renewable energy sources such as solar, wind or wave power.

3) the medium of air has a wavelength of 0.334 m, the medium of water has a wavelength of 1.493 m, and the medium of 5.130 m.

Explanation:

Question 1a)

Given the velocity/speed, and frequency of the wave, the length can be calculated using these two quantites.

[ λ = v / f ] wavelength = <u>v</u>elocity of the wave / <u>f</u>requency of the wave in Hz.

Since 3 × 10^8 × ms^-1 is the velocity, and 350Hz is the frequency.

Anything to the negative power is reciprocated. i.e ms^-1 = m/s.

The wavelength is 300000000m/350Hz = 857142.8571428..... m ≈ 857143 m

Question 1b) Given that the frequency of the second wave in water is 1% of the first wave, and the speed of the second wave is 1450ms^-1

Therefore the second wave has a frequency of 1% of 3.5 = 350/100 Hz = 3.5 Hz

The wavelength is found using the same

formula: wavelength = 1450m/3.5Hz = 414.2857142857.... m ≈ 414 m

Question 2a)

Question 2b)

Question 3) Remember, the speed of sound of the medium = frequency of the medium × wavelength of the medium.

Therefore the wavelength of the medium = speed of sound of the medium / frequency of the medium. This has a similar correlation to the wavelength formula. We are given that all these mediums have a frequency of 1KHz = 1000Hz, where So the wavelength of each medium =
