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

How much heat is needed to raise the temperature of 50.0 g of water by 25.0°C

Answer:

Explanation:

In order to be able to solve this problem, you will need to know the value of water's specific heat, which is listed as

c

=

4.18

J

g

C

Now, let's assume that you don't know the equation that allows you to plug in your values and find how much heat would be needed to heat that much water by that many degrees Celsius.

Take a look at the specific heat of water. As you know, a substance's specific heat tells you how much heat is needed in order to increase the temperature of

1 g

In water's case, you need to provide

4.18 J

What if you wanted to increase the temperature of

Honeybees accumulate charge as they fly, and they transfer charge to the flowers they visit. Honeybees are able to sense electri
Vilka [71]

Answer:

ΔE> E_minimo

We see that the field difference between these two flowers is greater than the minimum field, so the bee knows if it has been recently visited, so the answer is if it can detect the difference

Explanation:

For this exercise let's use the electric field expression

         E = k q / r²

where k is the Coulomb constant that is equal to 9 109 N m² /C², q the charge and r the distance to the point of interest positive test charge, in this case the distance to the bee

let's calculate the field for each charge

 

Q = 24 pC = 24 10⁻¹² C

         E₁ = 9 10⁹ 24 10⁻¹² / 0.20²

         E₁ = 5.4 N / C

Q = 32 pC = 32 10⁻¹² C

         E₂ = 9 10⁹ 32 10⁻¹² / 0.2²

         E₂ = 7.2 N / C

let's find the difference between these two fields

         ΔE = E₂ -E₁

         ΔE = 7.2 - 5.4

         ΔE = 1.8 N / C

the minimum detection field is

         E_minimum = 0.77 N / C

        ΔE> E_minimo

We see that the field difference between these two flowers is greater than the minimum field, so the bee knows if it has been recently visited, so the answer is if it can detect the difference

A 37 cm long solenoid, 1.8 cm in diameter, is to produce a 0.50 T magnetic field at its center. If the maximum current is 4.4 A,
taurus [48]

Answer:

33,458.71 turns

Explanation:

Given: L = 37 cm = 0.37 m, B= 0.50 T, I = 4.4 A, n= number of turn per meter

μ₀ = Permeability of free space = 4 π × 10 ⁻⁷

Solution:

We have B = μ₀ × n × I

⇒ n = B/ (μ₀ × I)

n = 0.50 T / ( 4 π × 10 ⁻⁷ × 4.4 A)

n = 90,428.94 turn/m

No. of turn through 0.37 m long solenoid = 90,428.94 turn/m × 0.37

= 33,458.71 turns
