Answer:

The electric field at a distance r = 0.02 m is 14062.5 N/C.

Solution:

Refer to fig 1.

As per the question:

Radius of sphere, R = 0.04 m

Charge, Q = 5.0\times 10^{- 9} C

Distance from the center at which electric field is to be calculated, r = 0.02 m

Now,

According to Gauss' law:

E.dx = \frac{Q_{enclosed}}{\epsilon_{o}}

Now, the charge enclosed at a distance r is given by volume charge density:

\rho = \frac{Q_{enclosed}}{area}

\rho = \frac{Q_{enclosed}}{\frac{4}{3}\pi R^{3}}

Also, the charge enclosed Q' at a distance r is given by volume charge density:

\rho = \frac{Q'_{enclosed}}{\frac{4}{3}\pi r^{3}}

Since, the sphere is no-conducting, Volume charge density will be constant:

Thus

\frac{Q_{enclosed}}{\frac{4}{3}\pi R^{3}} = \frac{Q'_{enclosed}}{\frac{4}{3}\pi r^{3}}

Thus charge enclosed at r:

Q'_{enclosed} = \frac{Q_{enclosed}}{\frac{r^{3}}{R^{3}}

Now, By using Gauss' Law, Electric field at r is given by:

4\pi r^{2}E = \frac{Q_{enclosed}r^{3}}{\epsilon_{o}R^{3}}

Thus

E = \frac{Q_{enclosed}r}{4\pi\epsilon_{o}R^{3}}

E = \frac{(9\times 10^{9})\times 5.0\times 10^{- 9}\times 0.02}{0.04^{3}}

E = 14062.5 N/C

Where does groundwater come from?
jek_recluse [69]
Groundwater is the water found underground in the cracks and spaces in soil, sand and rock. It is stored in and moves slowly through geologic formations of soil, sand and rocks called aquifers.

A car starts from rest and accelerates uniformly for a five seconds along a straight road. If speed obtained by the car is 72 km
Step2247 [10]

Answer:

50 meters

Explanation:

Let's start by converting to m/s. There are 3600 seconds in an hour and 1000 meters in a kilometer, meaning that 72km/h is 20m/s.

v_f=v_o+at

Since the car starts at rest, you can write the following equation:

20=0+a(5) \\\\a=20\div 5=4 m/s^2

Now that you have the acceleration, you can do this:

d=v_o+\dfrac{1}{2}at^2

Once again, there is no initial velocity:

d=\dfrac{1}{2}(4)(5)^2=2 \cdot 25=50m

Hope this helps!
