How much charge is required to raise an isolated metallic sphere of 1.0-meter radius to a potential of volts? Repeat for a spher

e of 1.0-cm radius. (b) Why use a large sphere in an electrostatic generator, since the same potential can be achieved for a smaller charge with a small sphere?

Answer:

q_1 = 1,112 * 10 ^ {-16}

Explanation:

A) First we will perform the exercise for the 1m radius sphere.

The key is to understand the electric potential of the sphere as well

r_1 = 1m

r_2 = 0.1m

V_p = 1 * 10 ^ 6V

Understanding that,

V_p=\frac{q} {4\pi\epsilon*r}

Where,

\epsilon = \epsilon_0 \epsilon_r

\epsilon = 8.85 * 10^{-12}

Clearing q of the electric potential equation,

q = V_p (4 \pi) (\epsilon) (r)

So,

q_1 = (1 * 10 ^ -6) (4 \pi) (8.85 * 10 ^{ - 12}) (1)

q_1 = 1,112 * 10 ^ {- 16} c

While for the second sphere

q_2 = (1 * 10 ^{ -6}) (4 \pi) (8.85 * 10^ {- 12}) (0.1)

q_2 = 1,112 * 10 ^ {- 17}} c

B) It is not entirely true, by obtaining a difference of one tenth, it is possible to understand that the larger the diameter, the greater the voltage reached.

find a magnitude of the force such that if the act at right angle there resultant is √10N but if the act of 50° the resultant is
Readme [11.4K]

Explanation:

Let magnitude of the two forces be x and y.

Resultant at right angle R1= √15N) and at

60 degrees be R2= √18N.

Now, R1 = √(x² + y²) = √15,

R2= √(x² + y² +2xycos50) = √18.

So x² + y² = 15,

and x² + y² + 1.29xy = 18,

therefore 1.29xy = 3,

y = 3/1.29x.

y = 2.33/x

Now, x2 + (2.33/x)2 = 15,

x² + 5.45/x² = 15

multiply through by x²

x⁴ + 5.45 = 15x²

x⁴ - 15x2 + 5.45 = 0

Now find the roots of the equation, and later y. The two values of x will correspond to the

magnitudes of the two vectors.

Good luck

A parallel plate capacitor stores charge, and thus, stores energy in the form of electric potential energy. The total energy sto
DIA [1.3K]

Answer:

The charges on the plates,

Explanation:

A capacitor is an electronic device that can be used for storing of charges. A parallel plate capacitor consists of two plates of equal area separated by a dielectric constant. The energy stored in the capacitor is in the form of potential energy which comes into play during the discharging process of the capacitor.

The energy stored depends majorly on the voltage, area of the plates, distance between the plates and the nature of the dielectric constant of the material between the plates. But it does not depend on the charges on the plates.

A giant star has a luminosity of 300 its color is most likely to be
amm1812
<span>The correct answer is blue. If you look at a luminosity star chart, called the Hertzsprung Russell Diagram, you will see the measurement of luminosity on the left side, and you will see a curve of stars with different colors (which correlate to the colors of the stars). Look for 30 on the luminosity measurement (look between 1 and 100). Then, move horizontally across the diagram until you hit the stars, whose color will be blue. Thus, blue is the answer.</span>
