Answer: mass = 48.47 kg.

Explanation:

Formula : Weight = mg , where m = mass of body , g= acceleration due to gravity .

Given: Weight = 475 N

$g= 9.8\ m/s^2$

Substitute all values in formula , we get

$475= m \times9.8\\\\\Rightarrow\ m = \dfrac{475}{9.8}\\\\\Rightarrow\ m \approx 48.47\ kg$

Hence, his mass = 48.47 kg.

A −4.00 μC charge sits in static equilibrium in the center of a conducting spherical shell that has an inner radius 3.13 cm and

Mariulka [41]

Answer:

(a). The charge on the outer surface is −2.43 μC.

(b). The charge on the inner surface is 4.00 μC.

(c). The electric field outside the shell is $3.39\times10^{7}\ N/C$

Explanation:

Given that,

Charge q₁ = -4.00 μC

Inner radius = 3.13 m

Outer radius = 4.13 cm

Net charge q₂ = -6.43 μC

We need to calculate the charge on the outer surface

Using formula of charge

$q_{out}=q_{2}-q_{1}$

$q_{out}=-6.43-(-4.00)$

$q_{out}=-2.43\ \mu C$

The charge on the inner surface is q.

$q+(-2.43)=-6.43$

$q=-6.43+2.43= 4.00\ \mu C$

We need to calculate the electric field outside the shell

Using formula of electric field

$E=\dfrac{kq}{r^2}$

Put the value into the formula

$E=\dfrac{9\times10^{9}\times6.43\times10^{-6}}{(4.13\times10^{-2})^2}$

$E=33927618.73\ N/C$

$E=3.39\times10^{7}\ N/C$

Hence, (a). The charge on the outer surface is −2.43 μC.

(b). The charge on the inner surface is 4.00 μC.

(c). The electric field outside the shell is $3.39\times10^{7}\ N/C$

A common pickup for an electric guitar consists of a coil of wire around a small permanent magnet, as described in Figure 25.5.

Orlov [11]

Guitar pickups are tiny coils with magnets inside them and they work via the principal of electromagnetic inductance. The metal strings vibrate within the magnetic field of the pickup which generates an electrical current. Since nylon is not a metal, it will not cause fluctuations in that magnetic field. Hope this answer helps.

When a balloon is deflating, why does air leave the balloon?

Gwar [14]

Answer:

When a balloon deflates air moves out of the balloon because the pressure inside the balloon is higher than the pressure outside the balloon.

Explanation:

An inflated balloon has a high pressure region on its inside. Gases always move from a region of high pressure to a region of low pressure. When a balloon is inflated its membrane stretches making it even more porous.

The gas molecules inside the balloon easily diffuse out through this membrane. The diffusion rate may differ depending on the type of gas filled inside the balloon and the material of the balloon. For example helium balloon deflates faster than common air balloon.

This is because helium is a light element and can escape easier than gases like nitrogen and oxygen through the porous membrane of the balloon.
