How can you increase the potential energy of a bouncing ball

Physics

Answer:

When you lift the ball, you are doing work to increase its gravitational potential energy. When you then release the ball, gravitational energy is transformed into kinetic energy as the ball falls. When the ball hits the floor, the ball's shape changes as it flattens against the floor.

A uniformly charged ball of radius a and charge –Q is at the center of a hollowmetal shell with inner radius b and outer radius

vlabodo [156]

Answer:

r < a:

$E = \frac{1}{4\pi \epsilon_0}\frac{Qr}{a^3}$

r = a:

$E = \frac{1}{4\pi a^2}\frac{Q}{\epsilon_0}$

a < r < b:

$E = \frac{1}{4\pi \epsilon_0}\frac{Q}{r^2}$

r = b:

$E = \frac{1}{4\pi b^2}\frac{Q}{\epsilon_0}$

b < r < c:

E = 0

r = c:

$E = \frac{1}{4\pi \epsilon_0}\frac{Q}{c^2}$

r < c:

$E = \frac{1}{4\pi \epsilon_0}\frac{Q}{r^2}$

Explanation:

Gauss' Law will be applied to each region to find the E-field.

$\int \vec{E}d\vec{a} = \frac{Q_{encl}}{\epsilon_0}$

An imaginary sphere is drawn with radius r, which is equal to the point where the E-field is asked. The area of this imaginary sphere is multiplied by E, and this is equal to the charge enclosed by this imaginary surface divided by ε0.

r<a:

Since the ball is uniformly charged and not hollow, then the enclosed charge can be found by the following method: If the total ball has a charge -Q and volume V, then the enclosed part of the ball has a charge Q_enc and volume V_enc. Then;

$\frac{Q}{V} = \frac{Q_{encl}}{V_{encl}}\\\frac{Q}{\frac{4}{3}\pi a^3} = \frac{Q_{encl}}{\frac{4}{3}\pi r^3}\\Q_{encl} = \frac{Qr^3}{a^3}$

Applying Gauss' Law:

$E4\pi r^2 = \frac{-Qr^3}{\epsilon_0 a^3}\\E = -\frac{1}{4\pi \epsilon_0}\frac{Qr}{a^3}\\E = \frac{r}{4\pi a^3}\frac{Q}{\epsilon_0}$

The minus sign determines the direction of the field, which is towards the center.

At r = a:

$E = \frac{1}{4\pi a^2}\frac{Q}{\epsilon_0}$

At a < r < b:

The imaginary surface is drawn between the inner surface of the metal sphere and the smaller ball. In this case the enclosed charge is equal to the total charge of the ball, -Q.

$E4\pi r^2 = \frac{-Q}{\epsilon_0}\\E = -\frac{1}{4\pi \epsilon_0}\frac{Q}{r^2}$

At r = b:

$E = -\frac{1}{4\pi b^2}\frac{Q}{\epsilon_0}$

Again, the minus sign indicates the direction of the field towards the center.

At b < r < c:

The hollow metal sphere has a net charge of +2Q. Since the sphere is a conductor, all of its charges are distributed across its surface. No charge is present within the sphere. The smaller ball has a net charge of -Q, so the inner surface of the metal sphere must possess a net charge of +Q. Since the net charge of the metal sphere is +2Q, then the outer surface of the metal should possess +Q.

Now, the imaginary surface is drawn inside the metal sphere. The total enclosed charge in this region is zero, since the total charge of the inner surface (+Q) and the smaller ball (-Q) is zero. Therefore, the Electric region in this region is zero.

E = 0.

At r < c:

The imaginary surface is drawn outside of the metal sphere. In this case, the enclosed charge is +Q (The metal (+2Q) plus the smaller ball (-Q)).

$E4\pi r^2 = \frac{Q}{\epsilon_0}\\E = \frac{1}{4\pi \epsilon_0}\frac{Q}{r^2}$

At r = c:

$E = \frac{1}{4\pi \epsilon_0}\frac{Q}{c^2}$

Marta_Voda [28]

Answer:

Cell theory is the scientific theory that states that all living things are composed of cells and that cells are the basic unit of life. The three principles of cell theory are the cell is the smallest unit of life, all cells come from preexisting cells, and cells are the basic unit of function in living things.

A bike accelerates uniformly from rest to a speed of 7.10 m/s over a distance of 35.4m .determine the acceleration of the bike.

sergeinik [125]

Given: Change of x is 35.4m, Velocity Final=7.10 m/s, Velocity Initial=0m/s
Find: Acceleration
Analysis:
Vf²=Vi²+2aΔx (Velocity final squared equals Velocity initial squared plus 2 times acceleration times change of x)
(7.10 m²/s)²=(0 m/s)²+2a(35.4 m)
50.41 m/s²=(70.8 m)a
a=0.712 m/s²
