Answer:

\mathbf{U = \dfrac{3 k_c Q^2_{total}}{5R}}

Explanation:

From the information given;

The surface area of a sphere = 4 \pi r ^2

If the sphere is from the collection of spherical shells of infinitesimal thickness = dr

Then,

the volume of the  thickness and the sphere is;

V = 4 \pi r ^2 \ dr

Using Gauss Law

V(r) = \dfrac{k_cq(r)}{r}

here,

q(r) =charge built up contained in radius r

since we are talking about collections of spherical shells, to work required for the next spherical shell r +dr is

-dW= dU = V(r) dq = \dfrac{k_c \ q(r)}{r} \ dq

where;

q (r) = \dfrac{4}{3} \pi r^3 \rho

dq which is the charge contained in the  next shell of charge

here dq = volume of the shell multiply by the density

dq = 4 \pi r^2 \ dr  \ \rho

equating it all together

dU = \dfrac{k_c \frac{4}{3} \pi r^3 \rho}{r} 4 \pi r^2 \ dr \ \rho = \dfrac{16 \pi^2 \ k_c \ \rho^2}{3} \ r^4 \ dr

Integration the work required from the initial radius r to the final radius R, we get;

U = \int^R_0 \ dU

U = \int^R_0  \dfrac{16 \pi^2 \ k_c \rho^2}{3} r^4 \ dr

U = \int^R_0  \dfrac{16 \pi^2 \ k_c \rho^2}{3} [\dfrac{r^5}{5}]^R_0

U = \dfrac{16 \pi^2 k_c \rho^2}{15} \ R^5

Recall that:

the total charge on a sphere, i.e Q_{total} = \dfrac{4}{3} \pi R^3 \rho

Then :

\mathbf{U = \dfrac{3 k_c Q^2_{total}}{5R}}

Here it is an application of Newton's III law

as we know by Newton's III law that every action has equal and opposite reaction

So here as we know that two boys jumps off the boat with different forces

from front side of the boat the boy jumps off with force 45 N which means as per Newton's III law if boy has a force of 45 N in forward direction then he must apply a reaction force on the boat in reverse direction of same magnitude

So boat must have an opposite force on front end with magnitude 45 N

Now similar way we can say

from back side of the boat the boy jumps off with force 60 N which means as per Newton's III law if boy has a force of 60 N in backward direction then he must apply a reaction force on the boat in reverse direction of same magnitude

So boat must have an opposite force on front end with magnitude 60 N

So here net force due to both jump on the boat is given by

F_{net} = F_1 - F_2

F_{net} = 60 - 45

F_{net} = 15 N

so boat will have net force F = 15 N in forward direction due to both jumps
