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}}

a bicycle uniformly from rest at time t the velocity of the bicycle is v at what time will the bicycle have a velocity of 4v​
sesenic [268]

Here

  • Acceleration and initial velocities are constant.

According to first equation of kinematics.

\\ \sf\longmapsto v=u+at

\\ \sf\longmapsto v=0+at

\\ \sf\longmapsto v=at

\\ \sf\longmapsto v\propto t

  • Time was t at velocity v
  • Time will be 4t at velocity 4v

Q.3. The equivalent resistance across AB is:<br> (a)1<br> (c)2<br> (b)3<br> (d)4
sp2606 [1]

Answer:

1 ohm

Explanation:

First of all, the equivalent resistance for two resistors (r₁ and r₂) in parallel is given by:

1 / Eq = (1 / r₁) + (1 / r₂)

The equivalent resistance for resistance for two resistors (r₁ and r₂) in series is given by:

Eq = r₁ + r₂

Hence as we can see from the circuit diagram, 2Ω // 2Ω, and 2Ω // 2Ω, hence:

1/E₁ = 1/2 + 1/2

1/E₁ = 1

E₁ = 1Ω

1/E₂ = 1/2 + 1/2

1/E₂ = 1

E₂ = 1Ω

This then leads to E₁ being in series with E₂, hence the equivalent resistance (E₃) of E₁ and E₂ is:

E₃ = E₁ + E₂ = 1 + 1 = 2Ω

The equivalent resistance (Eq) across AB is the parallel combination of E₃ and the 2Ω resistor, therefore:

1/Eq = 1/E₃ + 1/2

1/Eq = 1/2 + 1/2

1/Eq = 1

Eq = 1Ω
