A negative charge -Q is placed inside the cavity of a hollow metal solid. The outside of the solid is grounded by connecting a c

onducting wire between it and the earth. Is any excess charge induced on the inner surface of the metal? Is there any excess charge on the outside surface of the metal? Why or why not? Would someone outside the solid measure an electric field due to the charge -Q? Is it reasonable to say that the grounded conductor has shielded the region outside the conductor from the effects of the charge -Q? In principle, could the same thing be done for gravity? Why or why not?

Answer:

a)  + Q charge is inducce that compensates for the internal charge

b) There is no excess charge on the external face q_net = 0

c) E=0

Explanation:

Let's analyze the situation when a negative charge is placed inside the cavity, it repels the other negative charges, leaving the necessary positive charges to compensate for the -Q charge. The electrons that migrated to the outer part of the sphere, as it is connected to the ground, can pass to the earth and remain on the planet; therefore on the outside of the sphere the net charge remains zero.

With this analysis we can answer the specific questions

a)  + Q charge is inducce that compensates for the internal charge

b) There is no excess charge on the external face q_net = 0

c) If we create a Gaussian surface on the outside of the sphere the net charge on the inside of this sphere is zero, therefore there is no electric field, on the outside

d) If it is very reasonable and this system configuration is called a Faraday Cage

e) We cannot apply this principle to gravity since there are no particles that repel, in all cases the attractive forces.

Given the height of rod,length of shadow of tree and length of shadow of the rod, estimate the height of the tree? Given:height
diamong [38]

Answer:

1000 cm.

Explanation:

To obtain the estimated tree height :

(Height of rod / length of rod shadow) = (height of tree / length of tree shadow)

Substituting values into the formula :

(150cm / 120 cm) = (height of tree / 800 cm)

Using cross multiplication :

Height of tree * 120 = 150 * 800

Height of tree = (150 * 800) / 120

Height of tree = 120,000 / 120

Height of tree = 1000

Hence, estimate height of tree = 1000 cm

At what water temperature will additional heat energy need to be added before the temperature will change again?
Katyanochek1 [597]
That would be 0 degrees Celsius aka the melting point of water.... If you look at the diagram I attached you notice that at 0 degrees Celsius it is flat, this is because much heat is needed at this point for water to rise to 1 degree... It is the same for the boiling point (100)

Hope this helps! (If correct, please rank as brainliest answer) :)

Answer:

1. B

2. B

Explanation:

1. he was the only teacher at that time that figured out that everything doesn't revolve around us. he figured it out by a telscope he made from three lens and a tube. its actually pretty cool. He found out that venus first was in front of us.

2. if the earth wasn't at a tilt, then we wouldn't have sessons, when the earth rotate around the sun, the earth is roataing at a title axis. and that changes our seesons, because if we are in south america, and we are in winter time, and south america is cold, then it means that the continent is not getting as much heat from the sun. Does that makes since, because it doesn't sound like it?
