B. Helium because it is constantly being made in the sun

Explanation:

From the given paragraph, we can conclude that helium is the most common element in a star such as the sun because it is constantly being made.

In the nuclear fusion process that results in the production of helium, hydrogen nuclei are the reactants and helium is the product.

since the reactants are constantly being used in the core of the sun, this suggests that the products must be more.
The reaction requires a high temperature and pressure to initiate.
It is a series of chain reaction that uses a fuel of hydrogen to produce helium.

Consider a uniformly charged sphere of radius Rand total charge Q. The electric field Eout outsidethe sphere (r≥R) is simply tha

1) Electric potential inside the sphere: $\frac{Q}{8\pi \epsilon_0 R}(3-\frac{r^2}{R^2})$

2) Ratio Vcenter/Vsurface: 3/2

3) Find graph in attachment

Explanation:

The electric field inside the sphere is given by

$E=\frac{1}{4\pi \epsilon_0}\frac{Qr}{R^3}$

where

$\epsilon_0=8.85\cdot 10^{-12}F/m$ is the vacuum permittivity

Q is the charge on the sphere

R is the radius of the sphere

r is the distance from the centre at which we compute the field

For a radial field,

$E(r)=-\frac{dV(r)}{dr}$

Therefore, we can find the potential at distance r by integrating the expression for the electric field. Calculating the difference between the potential at r and the potential at R,

$V(R)-V(r)=-\int\limits^R_r E(r)dr=-\frac{Q}{4\pi \epsilon_0 R^3}\int r dr = \frac{-Q}{8\pi \epsilon_0 R^3}(R^2-r^2)$

The potential at the surface, V(R), is that of a point charge, so

$V(R)=\frac{Q}{4\pi \epsilon_0 R}$

Therefore we can find the potential inside the sphere, V(r):

$V(r)=V(R)+\Delta V=\frac{Q}{4\pi \epsilon_0 R}+\frac{-Q}{8\pi \epsilon_0 R^3}(R^2-r^2)=\frac{Q}{8\pi \epsilon_0 R}(3-\frac{r^2}{R^2})$

At the center,

r = 0

Therefore the potential at the center of the sphere is:

$V(r)=\frac{Q}{8\pi \epsilon_0 R}(3-\frac{r^2}{R^2})\\V(0)=\frac{3Q}{8\pi \epsilon_0 R}$

On the other hand, the potential at the surface is

$V(R)=\frac{Q}{4\pi \epsilon_0 R}$

Therefore, the ratio V(center)/V(surface) is:

$\frac{V(0)}{V(R)}=\frac{\frac{3Q}{8\pi \epsilon_0 R}}{\frac{Q}{4\pi \epsilon_0 R}}=\frac{3}{2}$

The graph of V versus r can be found in attachment.

We observe the following:

- At r = 0, the value of the potential is $\frac{3}{2}V(R)$ , as found in part b) (where $V(R)=\frac{Q}{4\pi \epsilon_0 R}$ )

- Between r and R, the potential decreases as $-\frac{r^2}{R^2}$

- Then at r = R, the potential is $V(R)$

- Between r = R and r = 3R, the potential decreases as $\frac{1}{R}$ , therefore when the distance is tripled (r=3R), the potential as decreased to 1/3 ( $\frac{1}{3}V(R)$ )
