A spherical shell of radius 9.0 cm carries a uniform surface charge density σ= 9.0 nC/m2. The electric field at r= 9.1 cm is app

maria [59]

Answer:

995.12 N/C

Explanation:

R = 9 cm = 0.09 m

σ = 9 nC/m^2 = 9 x 10^-9 C/m^2

r = 9.1 cm = 0.091 m

q = σ x 4π R² = 9 x 10^-9 x 4 x 3.14 x 0.09 x 0.09 = 9.156 x 10^-10 C

E = kq / r^2

E = ( 9 x 10^9 x 9.156 x 10^-10) / (0.091 x 0.091)

E = 995.12 N/C

At what speed, as a fraction of c , is a particle's total energy twice its rest energy

WINSTONCH [101]

The rest energy of a particle is
$E_0=m_0 c^2$
where $m_0$ is the rest mass of the particle and c is the speed of light.

The total energy of a relativistic particle is
$E=mc^2 = \frac{m_0 c^2}{ \sqrt{1- \frac{v^2}{c^2} } }$
where v is the speed of the particle.

We want the total energy of the particle to be twice its rest energy, so that
$E=2E_0$
which means:
$\frac{m_0c^2}{ \sqrt{1- \frac{v^2}{c^2} } }=2m_0 c^2$
$\frac{1}{ \sqrt{1- \frac{v^2}{c^2} } }=2$
From which we find the ratio between the speed of the particle v and the speed of light c:
$\frac{v}{c}= \sqrt{1- (\frac{1}{2})^2 } =0.87$
So, the particle should travel at 0.87c in order to have its total energy equal to twice its rest energy.

Give two examples of contact and non-contact forces and explain why they are contact and non-contact forces respectively.

Sever21 [200]

The Two examples of contact forces are:

frictional force
Contact force.

The two examples of non contact forces are:

Gravitational force
magnetic force.

Contact forces happens due to the contact between two objects

Non Contact forces happens because there is no contact between two objects. There is no attraction.

What happens to the current as we increase the amount of stepping of our transformer? Does this help explain why the primary was

matrenka [14]

Answer:

Current will decrease.

Explanation:

When we increase the number of stepping in transformer, the voltage will increase as its is directly proportional to the number of turn of stepping. Thus as the voltage will increase, current will decrease. As per the equation of ideal transformer, E1 / E2 = I2 / I1

E1 and E2 are the voltages in primary and secondary winding and I1 and I2 are the current.

As the number of turns will be increased more inevitable losses will be generated that dissipates heat thus warming the primary.

Though the conservation of energy is obeyed but losses occur in this scenario hence step-up transformers cannot be used to create free energy.
