Answer:

(a) E=0  :   0 cm from the center of the sphere

(b) E= 227.8*10³ N/C   :    10.0 cm from the center of the sphere

(c)E= 911.25*10³ N/C    :    40.0 cm from the center of the sphere

(d)E= 411.84 * 10³ N/C  :    59.5 cm from the center of the sphere

Explanation:

If we have a uniform charge sphere we can use the following formulas to calculate the Electric field due to the charge of the sphere

E=\frac{K*Q}{r^{2} } : Formula (1) To calculate the electric field in the region outside the sphere r ≥ a

E=k*\frac{Q}{a^{3} } *r :Formula (2) To calculate the electric field in the inner region of the sphere. r ≤ a

Where:

K: coulomb constant

a: sphere radius

Q:  Total sphere charge

r : Distance from the center of the sphere to the region where the electric field is calculated

Equivalences

1μC=10⁻⁶C

1cm= 10⁻²m

Data

k= 9*10⁹ N*m²/C²

Q=16.2 μC=16.2 *10⁻⁶C

a= 40 cm = 40*10⁻²m = 0.4m

Problem development

(a)Magnitude of the electric field at  0 cm :

We replace r=0 in the formula (2) , then, E=0

(b) Magnitude of the electric field at 10.0 cm from the center of the sphere

r<a , We apply the Formula (2):

E=9*10^{9} *\frac{16.2*10^{-6} }{0.4^{3} } *0.1

E= 227.8*10³ N/C

(c) Magnitude of the electric field at 40.0 cm from the center of the sphere

r=a, We apply the Formula (1) :

E=\frac{9*10^{9}*16.2*10^{-6} }{0.4^{2} }

E= 911.25*10³ N/C

(d) Magnitude of the electric field at 59.5 cm from the center of the sphere  

r>a , We apply the Formula (1) :

E=\frac{9*10^{9}*16.2*10^{-6} }{0.595^{2} }

E= 411.84 * 10³ N/C

Two wheels having the same radius and mass rotate at the same angular velocity. One wheel is made with spokes so nearly all the
Mazyrski [523]

Answer:

C. The wheel with spokes has about twice the KE.

Explanation:

Given that

Mass , radius and the angular speed for both the wheels are same.

radius = r

Mass = m

Angular speed = ω

The angular kinetic energy KE given as

KE=\dfrac{1}{2}I\omega ^2

I=Moment of inertia for wheels

Wheel made of spokes

I₁ = m r²

Wheel like a disk

I₂ = 0.5 m r²

Now by comparing kinetic energy

\dfrac{KE_1}{KE_2}=\dfrac{I_1}{I_2}

\dfrac{KE_1}{KE_2}=\dfrac{mr^2}{0.5mr^2}

\dfrac{KE_1}{KE_2}=2

KE₁= 2 KE₂

Therefore answer is C.

Turn the ignition switch to start and release the key immediately or you could destroy the______________.
vredina [299]

Starter

Explanation:

Turn the ignition switch to start and release the key immediately or you could destroy the starter.

The car starter is used to cause ignition in the internal combustion engine in order to fire the piston and cause mechanical motion. The starter is used to start the cyclic process of the internal combustion engine.

  • Once the engine starts by igniting the starter, it is best to release it.
  • The starter ensures that the spark plug is engaged and the motor is brought into work.
  • If the ignition is still engaged, the process continues repeatedly and it can damage the starter of the car.
