A spherical, non-conducting shell of inner radius = 10 cm and outer radius = 15 cm carries a total charge Q = 13 μC distributed

uniformly throughout the volume of the shell. What is the magnitude of the electric field at a distance r = 11.2 cm from the center of the shell? (ε0 = 8.85 × 10-12 C2/N ∙ m2) (Give your answer to the nearest 0.01 MN/C)

Answer:

E = 1580594.95 N/C

Explanation:

To find the electric field inside the the non-conducting shell for r=11.2cm you use the Gauss' law:

\int EdS=\frac{Q_{in}}{\epsilon_o}   (1)

dS: differential of the Gaussian surface

Qin: charge inside the Gaussian surface

εo: dielectric permittivity of vacuum =  8.85 × 10-12 C2/N ∙ m2

The electric field is parallel to the dS vector. In this case you have the surface of a sphere, thus you have:

\int EdS=ES=E(4\pi r^2)   (2)

Qin is calculate by using the charge density:

Q_{in}=V_{in}\rho=\frac{4}{3}(r^3-a^3)\rho  (3)

Vin is the volume of the spherical shell enclosed by the surface. a is the inner radius.

The charge density is given by:

\rho=\frac{Q}{V}=\frac{13*10^{-6}C}{\frac{4}{3}\pi((0.15m)^3-(0.10m)^3)}\\\\\rho=1.30*10^{-3}\frac{C}{m^3}

Next, you use the results of (3), (2) and (1):

E(4\pi r^2)=\frac{4}{3\epsilon_o}(r^3-a^3)\rho\\\\E=\frac{\rho}{3\epsilo_o}(r-\frac{a^3}{r^2})

Finally, you replace the values of all parameters, and for r = 11.2cm = 0.112m you obtain:

E=\frac{1.30*10^{-3}C/m^3}{3(8.85*10^{-12}C^2/Nm^2)}((0.112m)-\frac{(0.10)^3}{(0.112m)^2})\\\\E=1,580,594.95\frac{N}{C}

hence, the electric field is 1580594.95 N/C

denis-greek [22]

Answer:

Explanation:

1) Force Friction = Normal Force * Coefficient of Friction

Force Friction = Mass * Gravity * Coefficient of Friction

2) F = ma

Force = mass * acceleration

Force Friction (from #1) = mass * acceleration

acceleration = Force Friction / Mass
