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}.

Find the acceleration produced.
krok68 [10]

Answer:

0.67m/s²

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of toy  = 1.2kg

Force applied = 0.8N

Unknown:

Acceleration   = ?

Solution:

According to newton's second law of motion;

      Force  = mass x acceleration

Now,

      Acceleration = \frac{Force}{mass}

     Acceleration  = \frac{0.8}{1.2}   = 0.67m/s²
