Answer:

Net charge contained in the cubeq= 3.536×10^-6C

Explanation:

Formular for total flux in a cube is given as:

Total flux= E300Acos(180) + E200Acos(0)

Where A is crossectional area

Total flux= A(E200-E300)

Total flux= q/Eo

q= Eo×total flux

q=(8.84×10^-12)×(100)^2×(100-60)

q= 3.536×10^-6C

A uniform solid sphere has a moment of inertia I about an axis tangent to its surface. What is the moment of inertia of this sph

arsen [322]

Answer:

option E

Explanation:

given,

I is moment of inertia about an axis tangent to its surface.

moment of inertia about the center of mass

$I_{CM} = \dfrac{2}{5}mR^2$ .....(1)

now, moment of inertia about tangent

$I= \dfrac{2}{5}mR^2 + mR^2$

$I= \dfrac{7}{5}mR^2$ ...........(2)

dividing equation (1)/(2)

$\dfrac{I_{CM}}{I}= \dfrac{\dfrac{2}{5}mR^2}{\dfrac{7}{5}mR^2}$

$\dfrac{I_{CM}}{I}=\dfrac{2}{7}$

$I_{CM}=\dfrac{2}{7}I$

the correct answer is option E
