Two spherical shells have a common center. A -2.1 10-6 C charge is spread uniformly over the inner shell, which has a radius of

0.050 m. A +5.0 10-6 C charge is spread uniformly over the outer shell, which has a radius of 0.15 m. Find the magnitude and direction of the electric field at the following distances (measured from the common center). (a) 0.20 m magnitude direction (b) 0.10 m magnitude direction (c) 0.025 m magnitude direction

Answer:

a) E_total = 6,525 10⁴ N /C ,field direction is radial outgoing

b)  E_total = 1.89 10⁶ N / C, field is incoming radial

c) E_total = 0

Explanetion:

For this exercise we can use that the charge in a spherical shell can be considered concentrated at its center and that the electric field inside the shell is zero, since Gauss's law is

                Ф = E .dA = q_{int} /ε₀

inside the spherical shell there are no charges

The electric field is a vector quantity, so we calculate the field created by each shell and add it vectorly.

We have two sphere shells with radii 0.050m and 0.15m respectively

a) point where you want to know the electric field d = 0.20 m

shell 1

the point is on the outside,d>ro,  therefore we can consider the charge to be concentrated in the center

            E₁ = k q₁ / d²

             

shell 2

the point is on the outside,d>ro

             E₂ = k q₂ / d²

the total camp is

              E_total = -E₁ + E₂

              E_total = k ( \frac{-q_1 + q_2}{d^2})

              E_total = 9 10⁹ (-2.1 10⁻⁶+ 5 10⁻⁶ / .2²

              E_total = 6,525 10⁵ N /C

The field direction is radial and outgoing ti the shells

b) the calculation point is d = 0.10m

shell 1

point outside the shell d> ro

                 E₁ = k q₁ / d²

shell 2

the point is inside the shell d <ro

Therefore, according to Gauss's law, since there are no charges in the interior, the electrioc field is zero

                E₂ = 0

               

                 E_total = E₁

                 E_total = k q₁ / d²

                 E_total = 9 10⁹ 2.1 10⁻⁶ / 0.1²

                 E_total = 1.89 10⁶ N / A

As the charge is negative, this field is incoming radial, that is, it is directed towards the shell 1

c) the point of interest d = 0.025 m

shell 1

point  is inside the shell d< ro

                 

as there are no charges inside

                     E₁ = 0

shell 2

point is inside the radius of the shell d <ro

                    E₂ = 0

the total field is

                    E_total = 0

A person speed walking down a street covers 20m in 5s. What is the<br> speed of the individual? *
omeli [17]

Answer:

4 m/s.

Explanation:

The following data were obtained from the question:

Distance travalled (d) = 20 m

Time (t) = 5 secs

Speed (S) =?

Speed is defined as the rate of change of distance moved with time. Mathematically, it is expressed as:

Speed (S) = Distance (d) /time (t)

S = d/t

With the above formula, we can easily calculate the speed of the individual as follow:

Distance travalled (d) = 20 m

Time (t) = 5 secs

Speed (S) =?

S = d/t

S = 20/5

S = 4 m/s

Therefore, the speed of the individual is 4 m/s

How much work is done when a 30 kg mass is to be lifted through a height 6m?(1kg=9.8N​
rusak2 [61]

we know 1kg=9.8N​ so 30 kg= 30 x 9.8 = 294 N

work is done when a 30 kg mass is to be lifted through a height 6m :

A = 294 x 6 = 1764 J

ok done. Thank to me :>

An electron moving with a velocity = 5.0 × 10 7 m/s enters a region of space where perpendicular electric and a magnetic fields
inna [77]

Answer:

The magnetic field is 2 \times 10^{-4} T

Explanation:

Given:

Velocity of electron v = 5 \times 10^{7} \frac{m}{s}

Electric field E = 10^{4} \frac{V}{m}

The force on electron in magnetic field is given by,

 F = qvB \sin \theta                      ......(1)

The force on electron in electric field is given by,

 F = qE                               ......(2)

Compare both equation,

   qE = qvB \sin \theta

Here \sin \theta = 1

  E = vB

  B= \frac{E}{v}

  B = \frac{10^{4} }{5 \times 10^{7} }

  B = 2 \times 10^{-4} T

Therefore, the magnetic field is 2 \times 10^{-4} T

If the position of a particle on the x-axis at time t is −5t2, then the average velocity of the particle for 0 ≤ t ≤ 3 is
Drupady [299]

Answer:

v = 15 m / s

Explanation:

In this exercise we are given the position function

          x = 5 t²

and we are asked for the average velocity in an interval between t = 0 and t= 3 s, which is defined by the displacement between the time interval

          v= \frac{v_{f} - v_{o} }{t_{f} - t_{o} }

let's look for the displacements

        t = 0     x₀ = 0 m

        t = 3     x_{f} = 5 3 2

                     x_{f} = 45 m

 

we substitute

           v = \frac{45 -0}{3 - 0}

           v = 15 m / s
