There are 2 concentric cylinders. These cylinders are very long with length L. The inner cylinder has a radius R1 and is a solid

conductor. The outer one has a radius of R2 for its inner wall. It is a hollow cylinder with a conducting shell of thickness t.
The inner cylinder is charged and has a surface charge density of –σ. The outer cylinder is “grounded”, which means it has access to unlimited amounts of charge, charges are free to enter the object or leave the object.
a) Approximately, what is an expression for the total charge on the inner cylinder (as a function of R1, R2, L, or σ)? –the cylinder is very long, so the cap area will be very small compared to the sleeve area.
b) Approximately, what (if any) is the total charge that appears on the outer cylinder (as a function of R1, R2, L, or σ)?
c) Approximately, what (if any) is the surface charge density that appears on the inner wall of the outer cylinder (as a function of R1, R2, L, or σ)?
d) Approximately, what (if any) is surface charge density that appears on the outer wall of the outer cylinder (as a function of R1, R2, L, or σ)?
e) What is an expression for the electric field in the space between the inner cylinder and the inner wall of the outer cylinder (use r to denote a distance from the central axis of the cylinders) ?
f) What is the change of electric potential between the two cylinders?
g) Using all of the information from parts a,b,c, d, e, and f: calculate the capacitance of the entire system.

To get the charge along the inner cylinder, we use Gauss Law
E = d R1/2εo
For the outer cylinder the charge can be calculated using
E = d R2^2/2εoR1
where d is the charge density
Use these two equations to get the charge in between the cylinders and the capacitance between them.

Predict whether the changes in enthalpy, entropy, and free energy will be positive or negative for the melting of ice, and expla
BlackZzzverrR [31]
  <span>Melting of ice is an endothermic process, meaning that energy is absorbed. When ice spontaneously melts, ΔH (change in enthalpy) is "positive". ΔS (entropy change) is also positive, because, becoming a liquid, water molecules lose their fixed position in the ice crystal, and become more disorganized. ΔG (free energy of reaction) is negative when a reaction proceeds spontaneously, as it happens in this case. Ice spontaneously melts at temperatures higher than 0°C. However, liquid water also spontaneously freezes at temperatures below 0°C. Therefore the temperature is instrumental in determining which "melting" of ice, or "freezing" of water becomes spontaneous. The whole process is summarized in the Gibbs free energy equation: 
ΔG = ΔH – TΔS</span>

If you place a paper clip very close to a magnet, the paper clip
Alik [6]
The answer is “D. all of the above”!

Metal from the paper clip is attracted to the magnet, so it will naturally move toward and stick to the magnet. This will cause the paper clip to temporarily become a magnet for other metals. I hope this helped!

What is energy? Where does it come from? What does it do? Explain in 5 or more sentences please! :)
Vlada [557]

Answer:

Energy is defined as the ability to do work. Forms of energy could be kinetic energy or potential energy. Thermal or heat energy can originate from a hot object such as the sun. Energy is used to produce work. Electrical energy for lighting purposes and heating in homes and factories.

Explanation:

Energy is defined as the ability to do work and can be in various forms such as kinetic energy, potential energy, thermal, chemical, electrical energy etc.

Energy origination depends on the type of energy form in discussion. Thermal or heat energy can originate from a hot object such as the sun or an iron box, chemical energy originates from the interaction of atoms and molecules and electrical energy can be initiated by movements of electrons.

Energy is used to produce work. Different forms of energy can do different tasks such as;

Heat energy for heating water

Electrical energy for lighting purposes

Geothermal energy for producing heat and electricity

Nuclear energy for production of nuclear power

Chemical energy for facilitating chemical reactions

Predict what happens when glucose levels are high in the humms body
Goryan [66]

Glucose is blood sugar (hyperglycemia) comes from diabeties often, but can occur with other reasons, when glucose is to high someoenes sugar raises. Often this can lead to a diabetic coma, fatigue, vomiting, hospitalization, and even death if serious enough, from to high sugar. Many things can happen after this, and a lot are serious.

on the flip side (hypoglycemia) if sugar gets to low, confusion, fainting, vomiting, and nausea occur, as well as comas, and death if serious enought.
