The electric field associated with a uniformly charged hollow metallic sphere is the greatest at:

1 answer:

3 0

<span>Electric field is a region around a charge in which the force of the charge can be exerted on the other charged particle. The force can be both inwards and outwards (repelling). Usually when it comes to a uniformly charged hollow metallic sphere the electric field associated is highest at outer surface of the sphere.</span>

A force of 5N and a force of 8N act to the same point and are inclined at 45degree to each other. Find the magnitude and directi

Alex_Xolod [135]

Magnitude: 12.1 N.
Direction: 17.0° to the 8 N force.

<h3>Explanation</h3>

Refer to the diagram attached (created with GeoGebra). Consider the 5 N force in two directions: parallel to the 8 N force and normal to the 8 N force.

$\displaystyle F_{\text{1, Parallel}} = F_1 \cdot \cos{45^\textdegree} = \dfrac{5\sqrt{2}}{2}\;\text{N}$ .
$\displaystyle F_{\text{1, Normal}} = F_1 \cdot \sin{45^\textdegree} = \dfrac{5\sqrt{2}}{2}\;\text{N}$ .

The sum of forces on each direction will be the resultant force on that direction:

Resultant force parallel to the 8 N force: $(8 + \dfrac{5\sqrt{2}}{2})\;\text{N}$ .
Resultant force normal to the 8 N force: $\dfrac{5\sqrt{2}}{2}\;\text{N}$ .

Apply the Pythagorean Theorem to find the magnitude of the resultant force.

$\displaystyle \Sigma F = \sqrt{{(8 + \dfrac{5\sqrt{2}}{2})}^2 + {(\dfrac{5\sqrt{2}}{2})}^2} = 12.1\;\text{N}$ (3 sig. fig.).

The size of the angle between the resultant force and the 8 N force can be found from the tangent value of the angle. Tangent of the angle:

$\displaystyle \dfrac{\Sigma F_\text{Normal}}{\Sigma F_\text{Parallel}} = \dfrac{8 + \dfrac{5\sqrt{2}}{2}}{\dfrac{5\sqrt{2}}{2}} \approx 0.306491$ .

Find the size of the angle using inverse tangent:

$\displaystyle \arctan{ \dfrac{\Sigma F_\text{Normal}}{\Sigma F_\text{Parallel}}} = \arctan{0.306491} = 17.0\textdegree$ .

In other words, the resultant force is 17.0° relative to the 8 N force.

A bicycle pump contains 200 cm3 of air and is connected to a bicycle tyre. The volume of the tyre is 800 cm3. The pressure of th

Aleksandr [31]

Answer:

The total volume of the air is 1000 cubic centimeters.

Explanation:

Since the bicycle pump and the bicycle tyre have the same pressure, then the total volume of the air is the sum of the volume of each element, then we translate this into the following artihmetical expression:

$V = 200\,cm^{3}+800\,cm^{3}$

$V = 1000\,cm^{3}$

The total volume of the air is 1000 cubic centimeters.
