When the ruler is broughı near the inetal knob, it repels electrons in the metal. Electrons move away froni the ruler and down the metal rod. The knob now has a positive charge. The thin pieces of metal foil at the bottom of the metal rod now have a negative charge.
Yes, it is true to a certain that the number of outer shell electrons determines the chemical properties of an element, only because this determines how the element interacts with other elements.
Answer:
Option A
D = m/v
Explanation:
Density is defined as mass per unit volume of an object. Therefore, D=m/v where m is the mass of the object and v is the volume
Therefore, option A is the right option
Answer:
C) 7.35*10⁶ N/C radially outward
Explanation:
- If we apply the Gauss'law, to a spherical gaussian surface with radius r=7 cm, due to the symmetry, the electric field must be normal to the surface, and equal at all points along it.
- So, we can write the following equation:

- As the electric field must be zero inside the conducting spherical shell, this means that the charge enclosed by a spherical gaussian surface of a radius between 4 and 5 cm, must be zero too.
- So, the +8 μC charge of the solid conducting sphere of radius 2cm, must be compensated by an equal and opposite charge on the inner surface of the conducting shell of total charge -4 μC.
- So, on the outer surface of the shell there must be a charge that be the difference between them:

- Replacing in (1) A = 4*π*ε₀, and Qenc = +4 μC, we can find the value of E, as follows:

- As the charge that produces this electric field is positive, and the electric field has the same direction as the one taken by a positive test charge under the influence of this field, the direction of the field is radially outward, away from the positive charge.

The x and y cordinates are
and
respectively
The horizontal distance travelled, 
Making t the subject, 
Since
, we substitute t with the above and obtain

Making d the subject we obtain


d=304.8584
