Answer:

62.8 μC

Explanation:

Here is the complete question

The volume electric charge density of a solid sphere is given by the following equation: ρ = (0.2 mC/m⁵)r²The variable r denotes the distance from the center of the sphere, in spherical coordinates. What is the net electric charge (in μC) of the sphere if the radius of the sphere is 0.5 m?

Solution

The total charge on the sphere Q = ∫∫∫ρdV where ρ = volume charge density = 0.2r² and dV = volume element in spherical coordinates = r²sinθdθdrdΦ

So,  Q =  ∫∫∫ρdV

Q =  ∫∫∫ρr²sinθdθdrdΦ

Q =  ∫∫∫(0.2r²)r²sinθdθdrdΦ

Q =  ∫∫∫0.2r⁴sinθdθdrdΦ

We integrate from r = 0 to r = 0.5 m, θ = 0 to π and Φ = 0 to 2π

So, Q =  ∫∫∫0.2r⁴sinθdθdrdΦ

Q =  ∫∫∫0.2r⁴[∫sinθdθ]drdΦ

Q =  ∫∫0.2r⁴[-cosθ]drdΦ

Q =  ∫∫0.2r⁴-[cosπ - cos0]drdΦ

Q =  ∫∫∫0.2r⁴-[-1 - 1]drdΦ

Q =  ∫∫0.2r⁴-[- 2]drdΦ

Q =  ∫∫0.2r⁴(2)drdΦ

Q =  ∫∫0.4r⁴drdΦ

Q =  ∫0.4r⁴dr∫dΦ

Q =  ∫0.4r⁴dr[Φ]

Q =  ∫0.4r⁴dr[2π - 0]

Q =  ∫0.4r⁴dr[2π]

Q =  ∫0.8πr⁴dr

Q =  0.8π∫r⁴dr

Q =  0.8π[r⁵/5]

Q = 0.8π[(0.5 m)⁵/5 - (0 m)⁵/5]

Q = 0.8π[0.125 m⁵/5 - 0 m⁵/5]

Q = 0.8π[0.025 m⁵ - 0 m⁵]

Q = 0.8π[0.025 m⁵]

Q = (0.02π mC/m⁵) m⁵

Q = 0.0628 mC

Q = 0.0628 × 10⁻³ C

Q = 62.8 × 10⁻³ × 10⁻³ C

Q = 62.8 × 10⁻⁶ C

Q = 62.8 μC

for the same type of atom with 8 protons, 9 neutrons, and 10 electrons, what type of atom or ion is it​
Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

Answer:

O²⁻

Explanation:

Number of protons  = 8

Number of neutrons  = 9

Number of electrons  = 10

What type of atom or ion is it = ?

Solution:

Protons are the positively charged particle in an atom

Neutrons do not carry any charges

Electrons are negatively charged particles

 For this atom, the number of protons helps to identify what specie it is; so this is an oxygen atom.

Now,

     Charge  = Number of protons  - Number of electrons

      Charge  =  8  - 10  = -2

The charge on the atom is -2 and so it is an oxygen ion with -2 charge

 The ion is O²⁻

A hockey puck is sliding at a constant rate of 2m/s on a frictionless surface. How fast will the puck be moving after 10 sec
AnnyKZ [126]
2m/s because the hockey puck is traveling at a constant speed ( acceleration is 0 ). Unless something acts on the hockey puck it will travel 2 m/s forever.
