A net charge is placed on a hollow conducting sphere. How does the net charge distribute itself? A net charge is placed on a hol

low conducting sphere. How does the net charge distribute itself? The net charge uniformly distributes itself on the sphere's inner and outer surfaces. The net charge clumps together at some location within the sphere. The net charge uniformly distributes itself on the sphere's outer surface. The net charge uniformly distributes itself throughout the thickness of the conducting sphere. The net charge uniformly distributes itself on the sphere's inner surface.

Answer:

The net charge uniformly distributes itself on the sphere's inner and outer surfaces.

Explanation:

In electrostatic condition The charge will be distributed over the surface  of the shell,

The electic field outside the sphere  is like the charge where concentrated in the center of the sphere, inside the sphere the electric field is cero (quivalent to say the potencial is constant, non  electric current flow) If the thickness of the shell is very very thin we just have a charged layer. To keep the above mentioned electrostatic condition the elecrtic field have to be cero in this region  too

Calculate the specific heat of a metal from the following data. A container made of the metal has a mass of 3.8 kg and contains
OLEGan [10]

Answer:

C = 771.35 J/kg°C

Explanation:

Here, e consider the conservation of energy equation. The conservation of energy principle states that:

Heat Given by Metal Piece = Heat Absorbed by Water + Heat Absorbed by Container

Since,

Heat Given or Absorbed by a material = m C ΔT

Therefore,

m₁CΔT₁ = m₂CΔT₂ + m₃C₃ΔT₃

where,

m₁ = Mass of Metal Piece = 2.3 kg

C = Specific Heat of Metal = ?

ΔT₁ = Change in temperature of metal piece = 165°C - 18°C = 147°C

m₂ = Mass of Metal Container = 3.8 kg

ΔT₂ = Change in temperature of metal piece = 18°C - 15°C = 3°C

m₃ = Mass of Water = 20 kg

C₃ = Specific Heat of Water = 4200 J/kg°C

ΔT₃ = Change in temperature of water = 18°C - 15°C = 3°C

Therefore,

(2.3 kg)(C)(147°C) = (3.8 kg)(C)(3°C) + (20 kg)(4186 J/kg°C)(3°C)

C[(2.3 kg)(147°C) - (3.8 kg)(3°C)] = 252000 J

C = 252000 J/326.7 kg°C

<u>C = 771.35 J/kg°C</u>

A government agency estimated that air bags have saved over 14,000 lives as of April 2004 in the United States. (They also state
balu736 [363]

To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to momentum, momentum and Force. Mathematically the Impulse can be described as

I = F*t

Where,

F= Force

t= time

At the same time the moment can be described as a function of mass and velocity, that is

P = m\Delta v \rightarrow P=m(v_1-v_2)

Where,

m = mass

v = Velocity

From equilibrium the impulse is equal to the momentum, therefore

I = p

Ft = m(v_1-v_2)

PART A) Since the body ends at rest, we have the final speed is zero, so the momentum would be

p=m(v_1-v_2)

p = 75*0.15

p = 1125Kg\cdot m/s

Therefore the magnitude of the person's impulse is 1125Kg.m/s

PART B) From the equation obtained previously we have that the Force would be:

Ft = m(v_1-v_2)

F(0.025)= 1125

F= 45000N

Therefore the magnitude of the average force the airbag exerts on the person is 45000N
