Answer:

Explanation:

The volume of a sphere is:

V = 4/3 * π * a^3

The volume charge density would then be:

p = Q/V

p = 3*Q/(4 * π * a^3)

If the charge density depends on the radius:

p = f(r) = k * r

I integrate the charge density in spherical coordinates. The charge density integrated in the whole volume is equal to total charge.

Q = \int\limits^{2*\pi}_0\int\limits^\pi_0  \int\limits^r_0 {k * r} \, dr * r*d\theta* r*d\phi

Q = k *\int\limits^{2*\pi}_0\int\limits^\pi_0  \int\limits^r_0 {r^3} \, dr * d\theta* d\phi

Q = k *\int\limits^{2*\pi}_0\int\limits^\pi_0 {\frac{r^4}{4}} \, d\theta* d\phi

Q = k *\int\limits^{2*\pi}_0 {\frac{\pi r^4}{4}} \,  d\phi

Q = \frac{\pi^2 r^4}{2}}

Since p = k*r

Q = p*π^2*r^3 / 2

Then:

p(r) = 2*Q / (π^2*r^3)

A circuit component with a high resistance will have a low electric current.
Zepler [3.9K]
You haven't said what 'high' resistance or 'low' current means, so there's way not enough info to nail the statement as true or false. The most precise answer is "certainly could be but not necessarily". Anyway, the current in the circuit depends on BOTH the resistance AND the voltage. So without knowing the voltage too, you can't say anything about the current.

Light bulb is connected to a 110-V source. What is the resistance of this bulb if it is a 100-W bulb
masya89 [10]

Answer:

<h2>121ohms</h2>

Explanation:

Formula used for calculating power P = current * voltage

P = IV

From ohms law, V = IR where R is the resistance. Substituting V = IR into the formula for calculating power, we will have;

P = IV

P =(V/R)V

P = V²/R

Given parameters

Power rating of the bulb P = 100 Watts

Source voltage V = 110V

Required

Resistance of the bulb R

Substituting the given parameters into the formula for calculating power to get Resistance R;

P = V²/R

100 = 110²/R

R = 110²/100

R = 110 * 110/100

R = 12100/100

R = 121 ohms

<em>Hence, the resistance of this bulb is 121 ohms</em>
