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.

A proton moves from a location where V = 87 V to a spot where V = -40 V. (a) What is the change in the proton's kinetic energy?
Art [367]

Answer: a) 127 eV; b) there is no change of kinetic energy.

Explanation: In order to explain this problem we have to use the change of potentail energy ( conservative field) is equal to changes in kinetic energy. So for the proton ther move to lower potential then they gain kinetic energy from the electric field.  This means the electric force do work in this trayectory and then the protons increased changes its speed.

If we replace the proton by a electron we have a very different situaction, the electrons are located in a lower potental then  they can not move to higher potential  if any  external force does work on the system.

In resumem, the electrons do not move from a point with V=87 to other point with V=-40 V. The electric force point to high potential so the electrons  can not move to lower potential region (V=-40V).

A cyclotron designed to accelerate protons has a magnetic field of magnitude 0.15 T over a region of radius 7.4 m. The charge on
klio [65]

Explanation:

It is given that,

Magnetic field, B = 0.15 T

Charge on a proton, q=1.60218\times 10^{-19}\ C

Mass of a proton, m=1.67262 \times 10^{-27}\ kg

The cyclotron frequency is given by :

f=\dfrac{qB}{2\pi m}

f=\dfrac{1.60218\times 10^{-19}\ C\times 0.15\ T}{2\pi \times 1.67262 \times 10^{-27}\ kg}

f = 2286785.40 Hz

or

\omega=14368296.44\ rad/s

\omega=1.43\times 10^7 rad/s

Hence, this is the required solution.

For the sound wave passing through regions of the ocean with varying density, longer wavelengths correspond to greater density of the water.

<h3>What is effect of density of a medium on wavelength of a wave?</h3>

The density of a medium is directly proportional to the wavelength of a wave.

The higher the density of the medium, the longer the wavelength of a wave.

Therefore, for a sound wave passing through regions of the ocean with varying density, longer wavelengths correspond to greater density of the water.

Which of the following is/are true? Electromagnetic waves are created by accelerating charges. Electromagnetic waves are transve
Vikki [24]

Answer:

All of the above are true.

Explanation:

(a). true  

whenever  charge particle  move back and froth from its mean position then it will produce oscillating electric and magnetic fields, . so an em wave can be obtain by accelerating charge

(b). true

the electric field and the magnetic field have vibrations in the perpendicular direction along  the motion of the wave  so electromagnetic wave is a transverse wave. therefore, the EM wave is a Transverse wave

(c) true .

The Electromagnetic wave consists of the two mutually perpendicular electric and magnetic fields  and also both fields are  perpendicular to the direction of propagation of the wave.

(d) true .

An electromagnetic wave  carry  energy through  vacuum with a speed   of 3 \times 10^8 m/s  

   so , all of the above are true.
