A spherical shell has an outside radius of 2.60 cm and an inside radius of a. The shell wall has uniform thickness and is made o

f a material with density 4.70 g/cm3. The space inside the shell is filled with a liquid having a density of 1.23 g/cm3. (a) Find the mass m of the sphere, including its contents, as a function of a. (b) In the answer to part (a), if a is regarded as a variable, for what value of a does m have its maximum possible value

Answer:

The answer is below

Explanation:

a) The volume of a sphere is:

Volume = (4/3)πr³; where r is the radius of the shell.

Given the outside radius of 2.60 cm and inner radius of a cm, the volume of the spherical shell is:

Volume of spherical shell = \frac{4}{3} \pi (2.6^3-a^3) cm³

But Density = mass / volume;   Mass = density * volume.

Therefore, mass of spherical shell = density * volume

mass of spherical shell = 4.70\ g/cm^3 * \frac{4}{3} \pi (2.6^3-a^3) cm³

Mass of liquid = volume of inner shell * density of liquid

Mass of liquid = \frac{4}{3} \pi a^3\ cm^3*1.23\ g/cm^3

Total mass of sphere including contents = mass of spherical shell + mass of liquid

Total mass of sphere including contents (M) = 4.70\ g/cm^3 * \frac{4}{3} \pi (2.6^3-a^3)\ cm^3  +  \frac{4}{3} \pi a^3\ cm^3*1.23\ g/cm^3 =

Total mass of sphere including contents (M) = (346 - 14.5a³) grams

b) The mass is maximum when the value of a = 0

M = 346 - 14.5a³

M' = 43.5a² = 0

43.5a² = 0

a = 0

Students in an introductory physics lab are performing an experiment with a parallel-plate capacitor made of two circular alumin
Zarrin [17]

Answer:

\rm 9.186\times 10^{-7}\ C.

Explanation:

<u>Given:</u>

  • Diameter of the plates of the capacitor, D = 21 cm = 0.21 m.
  • Distance of separation between the plates, d = 1.0 cm = 0.01 m.
  • Minimum value of electric field that produces spark, \rm E=3\times 10^6\ N/C.

When the dimensions of the plate of the capacitor is comparatively much larger than the distance of separation between the plates, then, according to the Gauss' law of electrostatics, the value of the electric field strength in the region between the plates of the capacitor is given by

\rm E=\dfrac{\sigma}{\epsilon_o}.

where,

  • \rm \sigma = surface charge density of the plate of the capacitor = \dfrac qA.
  • \rm q = magnitude of the charge on each of the plate.
  • \rm A = surface area of each of the plate =\rm \pi \times (Radius)^2=\pi \times\left ( \dfrac{D}{2}\right )^2= \pi \times \left ( \dfrac{0.21}{2}\right )^2=3.46\times 10^{-2}\ m^2.
  • \epsilon_o = electrical permittivity of free space, having value = 8.85\times 10^{-12}\rm \ C^2N^{-1}m^{-2}.

For the minimum value of electric field that produces spark,

\rm E = \dfrac{q}{A\epsilon_o}\\\Rightarrow q = E\ A\epsilon_o\\=3\times 10^6\times 3.46\times 10^{-2}\times 8.85\times 10^{-12}\\=9.186\times 10^{-7}\ C.

It is the maximum value of the magnitude of charge which can be added up to each of the plates of the capacitor.

Which changes in energy form are illustrated in the diagram.
Grace [21]
It would be B since it starts with the solar energy which is converted to electricity with the solar panels, which then creates mechanical energy for the fans blades to move and sound for the radio.

Hope that helps :)
