Determine whether or not each of the following statements is true. If a statement is true, prove it. If a statement is false, pr

ovide a counterexample and explain how it constitutes a counter-example.

After some time, the plates will have excess charge on them, and the magnitude of the excess charge on one plate will equal the magnitude of the excess charge on the other plate.
A. True
B. False

Answer:

a)  True    b)  True

Explanation:

a) a capacitor is made up of two flat plates and each one has a charge of the same sign, therefore the statement is true

b) the current is the flow of electrons per unit of time, therefore the charge is not zero, therefore the statement is True

A uniformly charged ball of radius a and charge –Q is at the center of a hollowmetal shell with inner radius b and outer radius
vlabodo [156]

Answer:

<u>r < a:</u>

E = \frac{1}{4\pi \epsilon_0}\frac{Qr}{a^3}

<u>r = a:</u>

E = \frac{1}{4\pi a^2}\frac{Q}{\epsilon_0}

<u>a < r < b:</u>

E = \frac{1}{4\pi \epsilon_0}\frac{Q}{r^2}

<u>r = b:</u>

E = \frac{1}{4\pi b^2}\frac{Q}{\epsilon_0}

<u>b < r < c:</u>

E = 0

<u>r = c:</u>

E = \frac{1}{4\pi \epsilon_0}\frac{Q}{c^2}

<u>r < c:</u>

E = \frac{1}{4\pi \epsilon_0}\frac{Q}{r^2}

Explanation:

Gauss' Law will be applied to each region to find the E-field.

\int \vec{E}d\vec{a} = \frac{Q_{encl}}{\epsilon_0}

An imaginary sphere is drawn with radius r, which is equal to the point where the E-field is asked. The area of this imaginary sphere is multiplied by E, and this is equal to the charge enclosed by this imaginary surface divided by ε0.

<u>r<a:</u>

Since the ball is uniformly charged and not hollow, then the enclosed charge can be found by the following method: If the total ball has a charge -Q and volume V, then the enclosed part of the ball has a charge Q_enc and volume V_enc. Then;

\frac{Q}{V} = \frac{Q_{encl}}{V_{encl}}\\\frac{Q}{\frac{4}{3}\pi a^3} = \frac{Q_{encl}}{\frac{4}{3}\pi r^3}\\Q_{encl} = \frac{Qr^3}{a^3}

Applying Gauss' Law:

E4\pi r^2 = \frac{-Qr^3}{\epsilon_0 a^3}\\E = -\frac{1}{4\pi \epsilon_0}\frac{Qr}{a^3}\\E = \frac{r}{4\pi a^3}\frac{Q}{\epsilon_0}

The minus sign determines the direction of the field, which is towards the center.

<u>At r = a: </u>

E = \frac{1}{4\pi a^2}\frac{Q}{\epsilon_0}

<u>At a < r < b:</u>

The imaginary surface is drawn between the inner surface of the metal sphere and the smaller ball. In this case the enclosed charge is equal to the total charge of the ball, -Q.

<u />E4\pi r^2 = \frac{-Q}{\epsilon_0}\\E = -\frac{1}{4\pi \epsilon_0}\frac{Q}{r^2}<u />

<u>At r = b:</u>

<u />E = -\frac{1}{4\pi b^2}\frac{Q}{\epsilon_0}<u />

Again, the minus sign indicates the direction of the field towards the center.

<u>At b < r < c:</u>

The hollow metal sphere has a net charge of +2Q. Since the sphere is a conductor, all of its charges are distributed across its surface. No charge is present within the sphere. The smaller ball has a net charge of -Q, so the inner surface of the metal sphere must possess a net charge of +Q. Since the net charge of the metal sphere is +2Q, then the outer surface of the metal should possess +Q.

Now, the imaginary surface is drawn inside the metal sphere. The total enclosed charge in this region is zero, since the total charge of the inner surface (+Q) and the smaller ball (-Q) is zero. Therefore, the Electric region in this region is zero.

E = 0.

<u>At r < c:</u>

The imaginary surface is drawn outside of the metal sphere. In this case, the enclosed charge is +Q (The metal (+2Q) plus the smaller ball (-Q)).

E4\pi r^2 = \frac{Q}{\epsilon_0}\\E = \frac{1}{4\pi \epsilon_0}\frac{Q}{r^2}

<u>At r = c:</u>

E = \frac{1}{4\pi \epsilon_0}\frac{Q}{c^2}

A pulley system lifts a 1345 n weight a distance of 0.975m. Paul pulls the rope a distance of 3.90m, exerting a force of 375N. A
Rashid [163]

A. IMA: 4

The Ideal Mechanical Advantage (IMA) is given by:

IMA = \frac{d_i}{d_o}

where

d_i is the input distance

d_o is the output distance

For the pulley system in this problem, d_i = 3.90 m and d_o = 0.975 m, so the IMA is

IMA=\frac{3.90 m}{0.975 m}=4


B. MA: 3.59

The actual mechanical advantage (AMA), or simply the Mechanical Advantage (MA), is given by

MA=\frac{F_o}{F_i}

where F_o is the output force and F_i is the input force. For the pulley system in this problem, F_i = 375 N and F_o = 1345 N, so the MA is

MA=\frac{1345 N}{375 N}=3.59


C. Efficiency: 89.8 %

The efficiency of a machine is equal to the ratio between the MA and the AMA:

\eta = \frac{MA}{AMA} \cdot 100

Therefore, in this case,

\eta=\frac{3.59}{4}\cdot 100=0.898=89.8 \%

a fan acquires a speed of 180 rpm in 4s, starting from rest. calculate the speed of the fan at the end of the 5th second startin
KengaRu [80]

Answer:

225 rpm

Explanation:

The angular acceleration of the fan is given by:

\alpha = \frac{\omega_f - \omega_i}{\Delta t}

where

\omega_f is the final angular speed

\omega_i is the initial angular speed

\Delta t is the time interval

For the fan in this problem,

\omega_i = 0\\\omega_f = 180 rpm\\\Delta t=4 s

Substituting,

\alpha = \frac{180-0}{4}=45 rpm/s

Now we can find the angular speed of the fan at the end of the 5th second, so after t = 5 s. It is given by:

\omega' = \omega_i + \alpha t

where

\omega_i = 0\\\alpha = 45 rpm/s\\t = 5 s

Substituting,

\omega' = 0 + (45)(5)=225 rpm

"a musical tone sounded on a piano has a frequency of 261.6 hz and a wavelength of 1.31 m. what is the speed of the sound wave
Andreyy89
To solve this question, we use the wave equation which is:
C=f*λ
where:
C is the speed;
f is the frequency;
λ is the wavelength
So in this case, plugging in our values in the problem. This will give us:
C = 261.6Hz × 1.31m
= 342.696 m/s is the answer.
