A point charge of 6.0 nC is placed at the center of a hollow spherical conductor (inner radius = 1.0 cm, outer radius = 2.0 cm)

which has a net charge of –4.0 nC. Determine the resulting charge density on the inner surface of the conducting sphere.

Explanation:

The given data is as follows.

             q = 6.0 nC = 6 \times 10^{-9} C

         inner radius (r) = 1.0 cm = 0.01 m   (as 1 cm = 100 m)

So, there will be same charge on the inner surface as the charge enclosed with an opposite sign.

Formula to calculate the charge density is as follows.

            \sigma = \frac{q_{in}}{A} .......... (1)

Since, area of the sphere is as follows.

               A = 4 \pi r^{2} ........... (2)

Hence, substituting equation (2) in equation (1) as follows.

      \sigma = \frac{q_{in}}{4 \pi r^{2}}

                   = \frac{6 \times 10^{-9} C}{4 \times 3.14 \times (0.01)^{2}}            

                   = 0.477 \times 10^{-5}

or,               = 4.77 \mu C/m^{2}

Thus, we can conclude that the resulting charge density on the inner surface of the conducting sphere is 4.77 \mu C/m^{2}.

More force is needed for more mass. Therefore, if the mass is greater and the force is not enough then the object will less likely accelerate

A distant galaxy is determined to be 150 million light years distant and moving away from us; using the Hubble law determine its
dlinn [17]

Your question kind of petered out there towards the end and you didn't specify
the terms, so I'll pick my own.

The "Hubble Constant" hasn't yet been pinned down precisely, so let's pick a
round number that's in the neighborhood of the last 20 years of measurements:

             <em>70 km per second per megaparsec</em>.

We'll also need to know that 1 parsec = about 3.262 light years.

So the speed of your receding galaxy is

         (Distance in LY) x (1 megaparsec / 3,262,000 LY) x (70 km/sec-mpsc) =

              (150 million) x  (1 / 3,262,000) x (70 km/sec) =

                                 <em>3,219 km/sec  </em>in the direction away from us (rounded)

Calculate the change in internal energy of the following system: A balloon is cooled by removing 0.659 kJ of heat. It shrinks on
bixtya [17]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

-310J

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

The change in internal energy (ΔE) of a system is the sum of the heat (Q) and work (W) done on or by the system. i.e

ΔE = Q + W       ----------------------(i)

If heat is released by the system, Q is negative. Else it is positive.

If work is done on the system, W is positive. Else it is negative.

<em>In this case, the system is the balloon and;</em>

Q = -0.659kJ = -695J    [Q is negative because heat is removed from the system(balloon)]

W = +385J  [W is positive because work is done on the system (balloon)]

<em>Substitute these values into equation (i) as follows;</em>

ΔE = -695 + 385

ΔE = -310J

Therefore, the change in internal energy is -310J

<em>PS: The negative value indicates that the system(balloon) has lost energy to its surrounding, thereby making the process exothermic.</em>
