Answer:
c = 3.00E108 m/s = 3.00E5 km/s
t = S / v = 3.84E5 / 3.00E5 = 1.28 sec
Answer:
The final charges of each sphere are: q_A = 3/8 Q
, q_B = 3/8 Q
, q_C = 3/4 Q
Explanation:
This problem asks for the final charge of each sphere, for this we must use that the charge is distributed evenly over a metal surface.
Let's start Sphere A makes contact with sphere B, whereby each one ends with half of the initial charge, at this point
q_A = Q / 2
q_B = Q / 2
Now sphere A touches sphere C, ending with half the charge
q_A = ½ (Q / 2) = ¼ Q
q_B = ¼ Q
Now the sphere A that has Q / 4 of the initial charge is put in contact with the sphere B that has Q / 2 of the initial charge, the total charge is the sum of the charge
q = Q / 4 + Q / 2 = ¾ Q
This is the charge distributed between the two spheres, sphere A is 3/8 Q and sphere B is 3/8 Q
q_A = 3/8 Q
q_B = 3/8 Q
The final charges of each sphere are:
q_A = 3/8 Q
q_B = 3/8 Q
q_C = 3/4 Q
The given terms are :
Current = 0.8 Amperes
Time = 3 minutes = 3 × 60 = 180 seconds
we know that,
now, let's solve for charge (q) :
Total Charge (q) = 144 Coulombs
