Answer:

5.2\times 10^5N/C

Explanation:

Since the two charged bodies are symmetric, we can calculate the electric field taking both of them as point charges.

This can be easily seen if we use Gauss's law, \int{E} \, dA=\frac{Q_{enclosed}}{\epsilon_o}

We take a larger sphere of radius, say r, as the Gaussian surface. Then the electric field due to the charged sphere at a distance r from it's center is given by,

E=\frac{1}{4\pi r^2} \frac{Q_{enclosed}}{\epsilon_o}

which is the same as that of a point charge.

In our problem the charges being of opposite signs, the electric field will add up. Therefore,

E_{total}=\frac{1}{4\pi\epsilon_o}\frac{q_1+q_2}{r^2}= (9\times10^9) \frac{(76+30)\times10^{-9}}{((1+3.3)\times10^{-2})^2}N/C =5.2\times10^5N/C

where, r = distance between the center of one sphere to the midpoint (between the 2 spheres)

A balloon will stick to a wooden wall if the balloon is charged
grigory [225]
<h2>Answer: either way</h2>

The balloon contains neutral charge atoms, that is, it has the same number of electrons (negative charge), protons (positive charge) and neutrons (no charge).

Then, when two objects come into contact, the electrons of one of them can become part of the other.

Thus, by bringing the balloon closer to the wall, the wall, which is also made up of atoms, will reorder its charges in such a way that its electrons or protons become part of the balloon, charging it.

What is the energy of a photon whose frequency is 6.0 x 10^20?
omeli [17]

Answer:

3.75 MeV

Explanation:

The energy of the photon can be given in terms of frequency as:

E = h * f

Where h = Planck's constant

The frequency of the photon is 6 * 10^20 Hz.

The energy (in Joules) is:

E = 6.63 x10^(-34) * 6 * 10^(20)

E = 39.78 * 10^(-14) J = 3.978 * 10^(-13) J

We are given that:

1 eV = 1.06 * 10^(-19) Joules

This means that 1 Joule will be:

1 J = 1 / (1.06 * 10^(-19)

1 J = 9.434 * 10^(18) eV

=> 3.978 * 10^(-13) J = 3.978 * 10^(-13) * 9.434 * 10^(18) = 3.75 * 10^(6) eV

This is the same as 3.75 MeV.

The correct answer is not in the options, but the closest to it is option C.

Two objects are moving at equal speed along a level, frictionless surface. the second object has twice the mass of the first obj
lbvjy [14]

Answer:

They both rises to same height.

Explanation:

When an object is sliding up in friction less surface than according to conservation of energy its potential energy will be converted into kinetic energy.

mgH=\frac{1}{2}mv^{2}\\ v=\sqrt{2gH}

Here, m is the mass, v is the velocity, g is the acceleration due to gravity and H is the height.

Here the height is independent on the mass of an object and its only depend on velocity.

Now according to the question, two objects have same velocity but they have different masses.

Therefore, they rises to the same height because  height will not change with mass.
