Answer:

Part(a): the capacitance is 0.013 nF.

Part(b): the radius of the inner sphere is 3.1 cm.

Part(c): the electric field just outside the surface of inner sphere is \bf{2.81 \times 10^{4}~n~C^{-1}}.

Explanation:

We know that if 'a' and 'b' are the inner and outer radii of the shell respectively, 'Q' is the total charge contains by the capacitor subjected to a potential difference of 'V' and '\epsilon_{0}' be the permittivity of free space, then the capacitance (C) of the spherical shell can be written as

C = \dfrac{4 \pi \epsilon_{0}}{(\dfrac{1}{a} - \dfrac{1}{b})}~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~(1)

Part(a):

Given, charge contained by the capacitor Q = 3.00 nC and potential to which it is subjected to is V = 230V.

So the capacitance (C) of the shell is

C &=& \dfrac{Q}{V} = \dfrac{3 \times 10^{-90}~C}{230~V} = 1.3 \times 10^{-11}~F = 0.013~nF

Part(b):

Given the inner radius of the outer shell b = 4.3 cm = 0.043 m. Therefore, from equation (1), rearranging the terms,

&& \dfrac{1}{a} = \dfrac{1}{b} + \dfrac{1}{C/4 \pi \epsilon_{0}} = \dfrac{1}{0.043} + \dfrac{1}{1.3 \times 10^{-11} \times 9 \times 10^{9}} = 31.79\\&or,& a = \dfrac{1}{31.79}~m = 0.031~m = 3.1~cm

Part(c):

If we apply Gauss' law of electrostatics, then

&& E~4 \pi a^{2} = \dfrac{Q}{\epsilon_{0}}\\&or,& E = \dfrac{Q}{4 \pi \epsilon_{0}a^{2}}\\&or,& E = \dfrac{3 \times 10^{-9} \times 9 \times 10^{9}}{0.031^{2}}~N~C^{-1}\\&or,& E = 2.81 \times 10^{4}~N~C^{-1}

How much water will flow in 30 secs through 200 mm of capillary tube of 1.50 mm in diameter, if the pressure difference across t
Paladinen [302]

The water outflow in 30 secs through 200 mm of the capillary tube is mathematically given as

Qo=1.6 \times 10^{2} \mathrm{~mL}

<h3>What is the water outflow in 30 secs through 200 mm of the capillary tube?</h3>

\begin{aligned}\Delta P &=6660 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{m}^{2} \\\mu &=8.01 \times 10^{-4} \text { Pas } \\t &=30 \mathrm{~s} \\L &=200 \mathrm{~mm}=200 \times 10^{-3} \mathrm{~m} \\D &=1.5 \mathrm{~mm}=1.5 \times 10^{-3} \mathrm{~m} \Rightarrow \gamma=\frac{1.5 \times 10^{-3}}{2} \mathrm{~m}\end{aligned}

Generally, the equation for Rate of flow of Liquid is  mathematically given as

\\$$Q=\frac{\pi r^{4} \times \Delta P}{8 \mu L}

$$

Where dP is pressure difference r is the radius

\mu is the viscosity of water

L is the length of the pipe

Q=\frac{\pi \times\left(\frac{1.5 \times 10^{-3}}{2}\right)^{4} \times 6660}{8 \times 8.01 \times 10^{-4} \times 200 \times 10^{-3}}

Q=5.2 \mathrm{~mL} / \mathrm{s}

In $30s the quantity that flows out of the tube

&Qo=5.2 \times 30 \\&Qo=1.6 \times 10^{2} \mathrm{~mL}

In conclusion, the quantity that flows out of the tube

Qo=1.6 \times 10^{2} \mathrm{~mL}

Why do electrons flow threw a wire
Zolol [24]

Answer:

When electric voltage is applied, an electric field within the metal triggers the movement of the electrons, making them shift from one end to another end of the conductor. Electrons will move toward the positive side.

A 73-kg boy is surfing and catches a wave which gives him an initial speed of 1.6 m/s. He then drops through a height of 1.60 m,
Gnesinka [82]

To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to the Conservation of Energy, for which it is necessary that any decrease made through the potential energy, is equivalent to the gain given in the kinetic energy or vice versa.

Mathematically this can be expressed as

KE_i+PE_i = KE_f+PE_f

Since there is no final potential energy (the height is zero), and the initial potential energy is equivalent to the work done we have to

W = KE_f-KE_i-PE_i

W = \frac{1}{2}mv_f^2-\frac{1}{2}mv_i^2 -mgh

W =\frac{1}{2} m(v_f^2-v_i^2)-mgh

W= \frac{1}{2}(73)(8.5^2-1.6^2)-(73*9.8*1.6)

W= 1399.045J

W= 1.4kJ

Therefore the non-conservative work was done on the boy is 1.4kJ

A 1000 kg car collides with a 1 mg mosquito. By what factor will the acceleration of the mosquito be greater than the accelerati
rodikova [14]

Answer:

The acceleration of the mosquito is 1 million (10⁶) times that of the car

Explanation:

From Newton’s Third Law, every action has an equal and opposite reaction. Therefore, when the car and the mosquito collide, the force the car exerts on the mosquito equals the force the mosquito exerts on the car.

F₁ = F₂

Also, from Newton’s Second Law, F₁ = ma₁

Force of the car, F₁ = 1000 * a₁

And force exerted by the mosquito, F₂ = 0.001 * a₂

Equating both sides

1000a₁ = 0.001a₂

Taking the ratio of the acceleration of the mosquito and that of the car, a₂/a₁:

a₂/a₁ = 1000/0.001

a₂/a₁ = 1000000

Therefore, the acceleration of the mosquito is 1000000 (10⁶) times that of the car
