Answer:

Converted to an amount of energy equal to 4 million tons times the speed of light squared. ejected into space in a solar wind.

Explanation:

The 4 million tons of mass is converted to the amount of energy that is equal to 4 million tons times the speed of light squared. This energy moves from the sun with the help of solar winds and received by the planets present in the solar system. This solar energy moves in the form of solar radiation because there is no medium for propagation so that's why we can say that the mass is converted into energy that moves in the form of radiation in discrete packets.

Calculate the magnitude of the electric field inside the solid at a distance of 9.50 cm from the center of the cavity. Express y

WITCHER [35]

Question:

A point charge of -2.14uC is located in the center of a spherical cavity of radius 6.55cm inside an insulating spherical charged solid. The charge density in the solid is 7.35×10−4 C/m^3.

a) Calculate the magnitude of the electric field inside the solid at a distance of 9.50cm from the center of the cavity.

Express your answer using two significant figures.

Answer:

The magnitude of the electric field inside the solid at a distance of 9.50cm from the center of the cavity $3.65\times 10^5N/C$

Explanation:

A point charge ,q = $-2.14\times 10^{-6} C$ is located in the center of a spherical cavity of radius , $r =6.55\times 10^{-2}$ m inside an insulating spherical charged solid.

The charge density in the solid , d = $7.35 \times 10^{-4}C/m^3.$

Distance from the center of the cavity,R = $9.5\times 10^{-2 }m$

Volume of shell of charge= V = $(\frac{4\pi}{3})[ R^3 - r^3 ]$

Charge on the shell ,Q = $V \times d'$

$Q =(\frac{4\pi}{3})[ R^3 - r^3 ] \times d$

$Q = 4.1888*\times 10^{-4 }[8.57375 - 2.81011 ]\times 7.35\times 10^{-4}$

$Q = 4.1888\times 10^{-4} [5.76364 ] \times 7.35 \times 10^{-4}$

$Q =2.4143 \times 10^{-4} \times 7.35 \times 10^ { -4}$

$Q =1.7745 \times 10^{-6 }C$

Electric field at $9.5\times 10^{-2}$ m due to shell $E1 = \frac{k Q}{R^2}$

E1 = $\frac{ 9 \times 10^9\times 1.7745\times 10^{-6 }}{ 90.25\times 10^{-4}}$

$E1 =1.769\times 10^6 N/C$

Electric field at $9.5\times 10^{-2}$ due to 'q' at center $E2 = \frac{kq}{R^2}$

E2 = $\frac{ - 9 \times 10^9\times 2.14\times 10^{-6 }}{ 90.25\times 10^{-4}}$

$E2 =2.134\times 10^6 N/C$

The magnitude of the electric field inside the solid at a distance of 9.50cm from the center of the cavity

= E2- E1

$=[ 2.134 - 1.769 ]\times 10^6$

$= 3.65\times 10^5 N/C$

What happens to an electromagnetic wave as it passes from space to matter?

alina1380 [7]

Answer:

When an electromagnetic wave passes from space to matter, some part of the energy is absorbed by the matter and it increases its energy. The wave may reflect and some part may pass through the matter depending on the amount of energy they have. The amplitude of the wave decreases if some parts of it are reflected.
