Answer:

The sphere's volume charge density is 2.58 μC/m³.

Explanation:

Given that,

Radius of sphere R= 8.40 cm

Electric field E= 2.04\times10^{3}\ N/C

Distance r= 16.8 cm

We need to calculate the sphere's volume charge density

Using Gauss's law

\int{\vec{E}\cdot\vec{da}}=\dfrac{Q_{enc}}{\epsilon_{0}}

E\times 4\pi r^2=\dfrac{1}{\epsilon_{0}}\times\dfrac{4}{3}\piR^3\rho

E=\dfrac{\rho R^3}{3\epsilon_{0}r^2}

\rho=\dfrac{3\times E\times\epsilon_{0}r^2}{R^3}

Put the value into the formula

\rho=\dfrac{3\times2.04\times10^{3}\times8.85\times10^{-12}\times(16.8\times10^{-2})^2}{(8.40\times10^{-2})^3}

\rho=2.58\times10^{-6}\ C/m^3

\rho=2.58\ \mu C/m^3

Hence, The sphere's volume charge density is 2.58 μC/m³.

blsea [12.9K]

We have that the electric field at the center of the metal ball due only to the charges on the surface of the metal ball is

E=7*10^{9}N/C

From the question we are told that

A solid metal ball of radius 1.5 cm

bearing a charge of -15 nC is located near a hollow plastic ball of radius 1.9 cm bearing

uniformly distributed charge of -7 nC

The distance between the centers of the balls is 9 cm

Generally the equation for the electric field  is mathematically given as

E=\frac{kq_2}{d^2}\\\\E=\frac{(9*10^9)7*10^{-2}}{9*10^{-2}}\\\\

E=7*10^{9}N/C

Which of the following ranching practices contributes to soil erosion?
Natasha2012 [34]

A. overgrazing of livestock

Explanation:

Overgrazing of livestock is the ranch practice that contributes to soil erosion.

Soil erosion is the washing away of the top layer of the earth on which plant grows.

  • Plants are covers of the earth and they prevent agents of denudation from actively washing away the soil.
  • When livestock are introduced into a place, continuous grazing leaves the surface bare.
  • The plants becomes depleted and the surface is exposed.
  • This fast tracks the process of overgrazing.

Which applications, either for diagnostic purposes or for therapeutic purposes, involve radioactive materials placed in the body
CaHeK987 [17]

When a radioactive material is required to be placed in the body, the applications are brachytherapy and radioisotope imaging.

Radioactive materials are elements which has the ability to disintegrate by emitting radioactive substance or radiation. A good example of this is Cobalt-60, Titanium-99 etc.

Brachytherapy is a therapeutic process in which radioactive material is inserted into the body in close proximity to the region affected. The radioactive material emits radiations which are required to control the unwanted biological material in the body. A good application of this is the treatment of cancer using Cobalt-60.

Radioisotope imaging is a diagnostic process which is an imaging technique that may require placing a radioactive material in the body so as to trace or locate the affected part of the body. In this case, the material is used as a tracing element.

The applications that require the placing of radioactive materials in the body are brachytherapy and radioisotope imaging.

svetlana [45]
<span>The cation is positively charged and has a charge twice that of the anion, for example +2. The anion is negatively charged and in our example where the cation has a +2 charge, it must have a -1 charge. In order for the charges to equal zero, there must be two anions: -1 x 2 = -2 So the answer is D. AX2</span>
