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

Rufina [12.5K]

Answer:

45930.52N

Explanation:

Net force = (internal pressure - external pressure)× area of window

Net force = (1.02 - 0.910)atm × 2.03m × 2.03m = 0.11atm × 4.1209m^2 = 0.11 × 101325N/m^2 × 4.1209m^2 = 45930.52N

A proton moving at 3.0 × 10^4 m/s is projected at an angle of 30° above a horizontal plane. If an electric field of 400 N/C is a
GuDViN [60]

Answer:

The time it takes the proton to return to the horizontal plane is 7.83 X10⁻⁷ s

Explanation:

From Newton's second law, F = mg and also from coulomb's law F= Eq

Dividing both equations by mass;

F/m = Eq/m = mg/m, then

g = Eq/m --------equation 1

Again, in a projectile motion, the time of flight (T) is given as

T = (2usinθ/g) ---------equation 2

Substitute in the value of g into equation 2

T = \frac{2usin \theta}{\frac{Eq}{m}} =\frac{m* 2usin \theta}{Eq}

Charge of proton = 1.6 X 10⁻¹⁹ C

Mass of proton = 1.67 X 10⁻²⁷ kg

E is given as 400 N/C, u = 3.0 × 10⁴ m/s and θ = 30°

Solving for T;

T = \frac{(1.67X10^{-27}* 2*3X10^4sin 30}{400*1.6X10^{-19}}

T = 7.83 X10⁻⁷ s
