A solid conducting sphere with radius R carries a positive total charge Q. The sphere is surrounded by an insulating shell with

inner radius R and outer radius 2R. The insulating shell has a uniform charge density rho.
Part A

Find the value of rho so that the net charge of the entire system is zero.

Express your answer in terms of the variables Q, R, and appropriate constants.Part B

If rho has the value found in part A, find the magnitude of the electric field in the region 0
Express your answer in terms of the variables Q, R, r, and appropriate constants.Part C

If rho has the value found in part A, find the magnitude of the electric field in the region R
Express your answer in terms of the variables Q, R, r, and appropriate constants.Part D

If rho has the value found in part A, find the direction of the electric field in the region R
If rho has the value found in part A, find the magnitude of the electric field in the region r>2R.

Express your answer in terms of the variables Q, R, r, and appropriate constants.Part F

As a general rule, the electric field is discontinuous only at locations where there is a thin sheet of charge. Explain how your results in previous parts agree with this rule.

Answer:

Explanation:

Volume of the insulating shell is,

V_{shell}=\frac{4}{3}\pi(R^3_2-R^3_1)

Charge density of the shell is,

\rho=\frac{Q_{shell}}{\frac{4}{3}\pi(R^3_2-R^3_1)}

Here, R_2 =2R, R_1 =R \,and\, Q_{shell} =-Q

\rho=\frac{Q_{shell}}{\frac{4}{3}\pi((2R)^3-R^3)}=\frac{-3Q}{28\piR^3}

B)

The electric field is E=\frac{1}{4\pi\epsilon_0}\frac{Qr}{R^3}

For 0 <r<R the electric field is zero, because the electric field inside the conductor is zero.

C)

For R <r <2R According to gauss law

E(4\pi r^2)=\frac{Q}{\epsilon_0}+\frac{4\pi\rho}{3\epsilon_0}(r^3-R^3)

substitute \rho=\frac{-3Q}{28\piR^3}

E=\frac{2}{7\pi\epsilon_0}\frac{Q}{r^2}-\frac{Qr}{28\piR^3}

D)

The net charge enclosed for each r in this range is positive and the electric field is outward

E)

For r>2R

Charge enclosed is zero, so electric field is zero

The "Biltmore Agreement" stipulated that a. remote broadcasts could not emanate from hotels. b. NBC could not give away tickets
Anna35 [415]

Answer:

The "Biltmore Agreement" stipulated that:

Radio stations agreed to broadcast no longer than five minutes of news, twice per day, while using information supplied by the newspapers.

e. radio stations could only air five-minutes newscasts a day.

Explanation:

The Biltmore Agreement tried to reconcile within the press war between newspapers and radio, as during its golden age the newspapers´ revenues decreased. Radio´s brand new technology was more attractive and creative for advertising and could report breaking news faster than the newspapers, which through the press associations including the Associated Press and the United Press, pressured to stop providing news to radio stations beginning a war in 1933, which partially ended with the Biltmore Agreement, which restricted the radio´s broadcasting of news if the newspapers continued publishing radio listings, radio stations were to broadcast no longer than five minutes of news, twice per day, if information supplied by the newspapers was used, no sponsors were allowed, and no more that 30 words in a single story were allowed either;  radio stations had to include: "See your daily newspaper for further details" in their announcements and, could only broadcast news after 9:30 AM for morning news, and after 9:00 PM for evening news, so people would have already received their newspapers.
