Of the charge Q initially on a tiny sphere, a portion q is to be transferred to a second, nearby sphere. Both spheres can be tre

ated as particles and are fixed with a certain separation. (a) For what value of q/Q will the electrostatic force between the two spheres be maximized? What are the (b) smaller and (c) larger values of q/Q that give a force magnitude that is 75% of that maximum?

Answer:

2. Smaller value of q = 1/4Q

3. Larger value of q = 3/4Q

Explanation:

1. Please check the attachment for the solution of part 1. Due to time factor I couldn't type out the solution properly.

2. The smaller value is

F = 75% = 75/100

= 3/4 * Q²/16piEod² ---3

When we equate 1 and 3

We get 3Q²/16 = Qq - q² from here we cross multiply to get

3Q² = 16(Qq-q²)

3Q² = 16Qq-16q²

16q² - 16Qq + 3Q² = 0

When solve this out using the quadratic equation formula, we have:

Q/2 +- 2Q/8

We can get the smaller value of q as

Q/2-2Q/8

Solve using LCM we get

2Q/8 = 1/4Q = Q/4

C. The larger value of q

Q/2+2Q/8

= 6Q/8

= 3Q/4

Please use the attachment it will guide you to understand this better.

The Steamboat Geyser in Yellowstone National Park shoots water into the air at 48.0 m/s. How
qwelly [4]

Answer:

The maximum height reached by the water is 117.55 m.

Explanation:

Given;

initial velocity of the water, u = 48 m/s

at maximum height the final velocity will be zero, v = 0

the water is going upwards, i.e in the negative direction of gravity, g = -9.8 m/s².

The maximum height reached by the water is calculated as follows;

v² = u² + 2gh

where;

h is the maximum height reached by the water

0 = u² + 2gh

0 = (48)² + ( 2 x -9.8 x h)

0 = 2304 - 19.6h

19.6h = 2304

h = 2304 / 19.6

h = 117.55 m

Therefore, the maximum height reached by the water is 117.55 m.
