Note: question B is incomplete.

Complete Question

A solid ball of radius rb has a uniform charge density ρ.

a.  What is the magnitude of the electric field E(r) at a distance r>rb from the center of the ball?  Express your answer in terms of ρ, rb, r, and ϵ0.

b.   What is the magnitude of the electric field E(r) at a distance r<rb from the center of the ball?  Express your answer in terms of ρ, r, rb, and ϵ0.

c.   Let E(r) represent the electric field due to the charged ball throughout all of space. Which of the following statements about the electric field are true?

1. E(0) = 0.

2. E(rb) = 0

3. lim E(r) = 0.

4. The maximum electric field occurs when r = 0.

5. The maximum electric field occurs when r = rb.

6. The maximum electric field occurs as r to infinity.

Answer:

a) the magnitude of E(r)= ρr³/3 ε₀r²

b) the magnitude at distance r from the centre E(r)= ρr/3 ε ₀ ( if r<rb)

c) statements 1(E(0) = 0), 3(E(0) = 0) and 5(The maximum electric field occurs when r = rb.) are true

Explanation:

given

charge density = ρ ,  ε

Volume of sphere , V = (⁴/₃)πr³

a) charge density = charge/volume

ρ = q ÷ V

make charge the subject of the formula

∴q = ρ × V=  ρ× (⁴/₃)πr³

where r³ = rb³(at distance rb³)

recall

E= q/4πε₀r²

E=  ρ × (⁴/₃)πrb³/4πε₀r²

∴E(r)= ρrb³/3 ε ₀r²

(b)  The Gaussian surface is inside the ball, therefore, surface only encloses a portion of ball's charge .

The net charge enclosed by the Gaussian surface is different to the of net charge enclosed in (a)

Recall

E= q/4πε₀r²

V= (⁴/₃)πr³

E=  ρ × (⁴/₃)πr³/4πε₀r²

∴E(r)= ρr/3 ε₀

(c)  E(0)= 0

limr-----∝

E(r)= 0

The maximum electric field occurs when r=rb.

Which gives the work done by a torque during angular displacement?
Nutka1998 [239]

Only when the torque is constant the work done is done during angular displacement. So the correct option is d.

Work done by the force is calculated as the dot product of force and  angular displacement of the point of application of force. It is equal to the change in rotational kinetic energy of the body.

Work done by a torque can be calculated by taking an analogy from work done by force.

Work done = torque × angular displacement

So work is done by a torque during angular displacement only when torque is constant.

If a torque applied on a body rotates it through an angle ω, the work done by torque is

W = ζ × ω

To know more about the work done by torque refer to the link given below:

What is the momentum of a 35–kilogram cart moving at a speed of 1.2 meters/second?
Alexus [3.1K]

Given:-

  • Mass of the cart (m) = 35 kg
  • Speed (consider Velocity) = 1.2 m/s

To Find: Momentum of the cart.

We know,

p = mv

where,

  • p = Momentum,
  • m = Mass &
  • v = Velocity.

Thus,

p = (35 kg)(1.2 m/s)

→ p = 42 kg m/s (Ans.)

Conclusion:-

A. ☑️ 42 kilogram - metre per second.

The temperature of the cosmic background radiation is measured to be 2.7 k. What is the wavelength of the peak in the spectral d
KATRIN_1 [288]

Answer:

1.07\cdot 10^{-3} m

Explanation:

The peak wavelength of the spectral distribution can be found by using Wien's displacement law:

\lambda=\frac{b}{T}

where

b=2.898\cdot 10^{-3} m\cdot K is Wien's displacement constant

T is the absolute temperature

For the cosmic background radiation, the temperature is

T = 2.7 K

So, the corresponding peak wavelength is

\lambda=\frac{2.898\cdot 10^{-3} m\cdot K}{2.7 K}=1.07\cdot 10^{-3} m

The frequency of a wave is 200 Hz. The wavelength is 0.1 m. What is the period of the wave?
Aleks04 [339]
The formula for the period of wave is: wave period is equals to 1 over the frequency.waveperiod=\frac{1}{frequency}
To get the value of period of wave you need to divide 1 by 200 Hz. However, beforehand, you have to convert 200 Hz to cycles per second. So that would be, 200 cyles per second or 200/s.
By then, you can start the computation by dividing 1 by 200/s. Since 200/s is in fractional form, you have to find its reciprocal form and multiply it to one which would give you 1 (one) second over 200. This would then lead us to the value 0.005 seconds as the wave period.

wave period= 1/200 Hz
Convert Hz to cycles per second first
200 Hz x 1/s= 200/second
Make 200/second as your divisor, so:

wave period= 1/ 200/s

get the reciprocal form of 200/s which is s/200

then you can start the actual computation:

wave period= 1 x s divided by 200

this would give us an answer of 0.005 s.
