The correct answer is: Option (3) 9.8 N/kg

Explanation:

According to Newton's Law of Gravitation:

$F_g = \frac{GmM}{R^2}$ --- (1)

Where G = Gravitational constant = 6.67408 × 10⁻¹¹ m³ kg⁻¹ s⁻²

m = Mass of the body = 2 kg

M = Mass of the Earth = 5.972 × 10²⁴ kg

R = Distance of the object from the center of the Earth = Radius of the Earth + Object's distance from the surface of the Earth = (6371 * 10³) + 3.0 = 6371003 m

Plug in the values in (1):

(1)=> $F_g = \frac{6.67408 * 10^{-11} * 2 * 5.972*10^{24}}{(6371003)^2} = 19.63$

Now that we have force strength at the location, we can use:

Force = mass * gravitational-field-strength

Plug in the values:

19.63 = 2.0 * gravitational-field-strength

gravitational-field-strength = 19.63/2 = 9.82 N/kg

Hence the correct answer is Option (3) 9.8 N/kg

Consider a uniformly charged sphere of radius Rand total charge Q. The electric field Eout outsidethe sphere (r≥R) is simply tha

AlexFokin [52]

1) Electric potential inside the sphere: $\frac{Q}{8\pi \epsilon_0 R}(3-\frac{r^2}{R^2})$

2) Ratio Vcenter/Vsurface: 3/2

3) Find graph in attachment

Explanation:

The electric field inside the sphere is given by

$E=\frac{1}{4\pi \epsilon_0}\frac{Qr}{R^3}$

where

$\epsilon_0=8.85\cdot 10^{-12}F/m$ is the vacuum permittivity

Q is the charge on the sphere

R is the radius of the sphere

r is the distance from the centre at which we compute the field

For a radial field,

$E(r)=-\frac{dV(r)}{dr}$

Therefore, we can find the potential at distance r by integrating the expression for the electric field. Calculating the difference between the potential at r and the potential at R,

$V(R)-V(r)=-\int\limits^R_r E(r)dr=-\frac{Q}{4\pi \epsilon_0 R^3}\int r dr = \frac{-Q}{8\pi \epsilon_0 R^3}(R^2-r^2)$

The potential at the surface, V(R), is that of a point charge, so

$V(R)=\frac{Q}{4\pi \epsilon_0 R}$

Therefore we can find the potential inside the sphere, V(r):

$V(r)=V(R)+\Delta V=\frac{Q}{4\pi \epsilon_0 R}+\frac{-Q}{8\pi \epsilon_0 R^3}(R^2-r^2)=\frac{Q}{8\pi \epsilon_0 R}(3-\frac{r^2}{R^2})$

At the center,

r = 0

Therefore the potential at the center of the sphere is:

$V(r)=\frac{Q}{8\pi \epsilon_0 R}(3-\frac{r^2}{R^2})\\V(0)=\frac{3Q}{8\pi \epsilon_0 R}$

On the other hand, the potential at the surface is

$V(R)=\frac{Q}{4\pi \epsilon_0 R}$

Therefore, the ratio V(center)/V(surface) is:

$\frac{V(0)}{V(R)}=\frac{\frac{3Q}{8\pi \epsilon_0 R}}{\frac{Q}{4\pi \epsilon_0 R}}=\frac{3}{2}$

The graph of V versus r can be found in attachment.

We observe the following:

- At r = 0, the value of the potential is $\frac{3}{2}V(R)$ , as found in part b) (where $V(R)=\frac{Q}{4\pi \epsilon_0 R}$ )

- Between r and R, the potential decreases as $-\frac{r^2}{R^2}$

- Then at r = R, the potential is $V(R)$

- Between r = R and r = 3R, the potential decreases as $\frac{1}{R}$ , therefore when the distance is tripled (r=3R), the potential as decreased to 1/3 ( $\frac{1}{3}V(R)$ )

A horizontal pipe contains water at a pressure of 110 kPa flowing with a speed of 1.4 m/s. When the pipe narrows to one half its

Pavel [41]

Answer:

$v_2 = 5.6 \ m/s$

$P_2 = 80600 \ Pa$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The pressure of the water in the pipe is $P_1= 110 \ kPa = 110 *10^{3 } \ Pa$

The speed of the water is $v_1 = 1.4 \ m/s$

The original area of the pipe is $A_1 = \pi \frac{d^2 }{4}$

The new area of the pipe is $A_2 = \pi * \frac{[\frac{d}{2} ]^2}{4} = \pi * \frac{\frac{d^2}{4} }{4} = \pi \frac{d^2}{16}$

Generally the continuity equation is mathematically represented as

$A_1 * v_1 = A_2 * v_2$

Here $v_2$ is the new velocity

$\pi * \frac{d^2}{4} * 1.4 = \pi * \frac{d^2}{16} * v_2$

=> $\frac{d^2}{4} * 1.4 = \frac{d^2}{16} * v_2$

=> $d^2 * 1.4 = \frac{d^2}{4} * v_2$

=> $1.4 = 0.25 * v_2$

=> $v_2 = 5.6 \ m/s$

Generally given that the height of the original pipe and the narrower pipe are the same , then we will b making use of the Bernoulli's equation for constant height to calculate the pressure

This is mathematically represented as

$P_1 + \frac{1}{2} * \rho * v_1 ^2 = P_2 + \frac{1}{2} * \rho * v_2 ^2$
