Answer:

Q = 133.76 KJ

Explanation:

The amount of heat energy required to raise the temperature of the water can be calculated by the following formula:

Q = mC\Delta T

where,

Q = Heat Energy Required = ?

m = mass of water = 2 kg

C = Specific Heat Capacity of Water = 4.18 KJ/kg°C

ΔT = change in temperature = 26°C - 10°C = 16°C

Therefore,

Q = (2\ kg)(4.18\ KJ/kg.^oC)(16^oC)

<u>Q = 133.76 KJ</u>

A spherical, conducting shell of inner radius r1= 10 cm and outer radius r2 = 15 cm carries a total charge Q = 15 μC . What is t
lutik1710 [3]

a) E = 0

b) 3.38\cdot 10^6 N/C

Explanation:

a)

We can solve this problem using Gauss theorem: the electric flux through a Gaussian surface of radius r must be equal to the charge contained by the sphere divided by the vacuum permittivity:

\int EdS=\frac{q}{\epsilon_0}

where

E is the electric field

q is the charge contained by the Gaussian surface

\epsilon_0 is the vacuum permittivity

Here we want to find the electric field at a distance of

r = 12 cm = 0.12 m

Here we are between the inner radius and the outer radius of the shell:

r_1 = 10 cm\\r_2 = 15 cm

However, we notice that the shell is conducting: this means that the charge inside the conductor will distribute over its outer surface.

This means that a Gaussian surface of radius r = 12 cm, which is smaller than the outer radius of the shell, will contain zero net charge:

q = 0

Therefore, the magnitude of the electric field is also zero:

E = 0

b)

Here we want to find the magnitude of the electric field at a distance of

r = 20 cm = 0.20 m

from the centre of the shell.

Outside the outer surface of the shell, the electric field is equivalent to that produced by a single-point charge of same magnitude Q concentrated at the centre of the shell.

Therefore, it is given by:

E=\frac{Q}{4\pi \epsilon_0 r^2}

where in this problem:

Q=15 \mu C = 15\cdot 10^{-6} C is the charge on the shell

r=20 cm = 0.20 m is the distance from the centre of the shell

Substituting, we find:

E=\frac{15\cdot 10^{-6}}{4\pi (8.85\cdot 10^{-12})(0.20)^2}=3.38\cdot 10^6 N/C

Which particle is most likely to interact with your hand? Select one: a. Alpha particle b. Beta particle c. Gamma particle d. Ne
IgorLugansk [536]

Answer:

The correct option is a

Explanation:

The alpha particle has the lowest penetrating power of the trio of alpha, beta and gamma particles and can be stopped by a sheet of paper and hence cannot penetrate a human skin. Beta particle has a higher penetrating power than alpha particle (some of it penetrates the human skin and some do not) while the gamma particle has the highest penetrating power (with all of it penetrating the human skin).

From the above description, it can be deduced that the alpha particle will stay and interact with the hand (because of its low penetrating power) as the remaining particles move through the skin.

An object is transported to three different planets in our solar system. Which of the following is true about that object?
Digiron [165]

<u>Answer;</u>

<em>D.  The object’s weight changes, but its mass stays the same.</em>

<u>Explanation;</u>

  • Mass is the amount of matter in a object, which is measured in kilograms. Mass of an object is measured using a beam balance. It is important to note that the mass of an object or a body remains constant, and does not vary from one place to another. For instance the mass of a person on the moon will be the same as when the person is on the earth surface.
  • Weight on the other hand is the measurement of gravitational pull of an object. weight is measured using a spring balance and measured in Newtons. Weight varies from one place to another depending on the gravitational pull of a given surface.
