Suppose the charged sphere is made from a conductor, rather than an insulator. Do you expect the magnitude of the force between

the point charge and the conducting sphere to be greater than, less than, or equal to the force between the point charge and an insulating sphere

Answer:

* Point charge outside the radius of the sphere r> R, the force in the two systems is the same

* Point charge inside the sphere  r <R,  therefore the force in the system with the insulating sphere is greater

Explanation:

To answer this question let's use the relation

          F = q E

with q being the point charge and E the electric field created by the sphere.

If we use Gauss's law

The electric field flux is proportional to the wax charge within the surface.

Let's analyze our situation.

* Point charge outside the radius of the sphere

          r> R

where R is the radius of the sphere and r the distance from the center of the sphere to the point charge

in this case the waxed charge for the insulating and conducting sphere is the same, therefore the force in the two systems is the same

* Point charge inside the sphere

           r <R

conductive sphere.

     As the charges are mobile, they are located on the surface of the sphere and there is no waxed charge within a Gaussian surface that passes through the point charge, therefore the electric field is zero and consequently the force

             F = 0

insulating sphere

      Charges cannot move therefore there is a fraction of charge within a surface that passes through the point charge, consequently the electric field is different from zero

            Fe> 0

for this second position the force on the conducting sphere is zero

therefore the force in the system with the insulating sphere is greater

After the box comes to rest at position x1, a person starts pushing the box, giving it a speed v1. when the box reaches position
KiRa [710]

As we know by work energy theorem

total work done = change in kinetic energy

so here we can say that wok done on the box will be equal to the change in kinetic energy of the system

W_p = KE_f - KE_i

initial the box is at rest at position x = x1

so initial kinetic energy will be ZERO

at final position x = x2 final kinetic energy is given as

KE_f = \frac{1}{2}mv_1^2

now work done is given as

W_p = \frac{1}{2}mv_1^2 - 0

so we can say

W_p = \frac{1}{2}mv_1^2

so above is the work done on the box to slide it from x1 to x2

Savatey [412]

Answer:N=322.53 rpm

Explanation:

Given

Linear velocity (v)=1.25 m/s

Position from center is 3.7 cm

we know

v=\omega \times r

1.25\times 100=\omega \times 3.7

\omega =\frac{125}{3.7}=33.78

and \frac{2\pi N}{60}=\omega

N=\frac{\omega \times 60}{2\pi }

N=\frac{33.78\times 60}{2\pi }

N=322.53 rpm
