Answer:

The diameter of the needle is <u>4.675 cm</u>.

Explanation:

Given:

Volume flow rate is, \dot V=103\ cm^3

Velocity of air expelled by pump is, v=6\ cm/s

Let the area of the needle be 'A' cm² and the diameter be 'd' cm.

We know that, volume flow rate of the air expelled by pump is given as the product of the needle's area and velocity of air flowing through that area.

Therefore, volume flow rate is given as:

\dot V=A\times v\\\\103=A\times 6\\\\6A=103\\\\A=\frac{103}{6}\ cm^2

Now, considering the needle to be circular, area of the needle can be written as:

A=\frac{\pi}{4}\times d^2\\\\\frac{103}{6}=\frac{\pi}{4}\times d^2\\\\d^2=\frac{103\times 4}{6\pi}\\\\d=\sqrt{\frac{103\times 4}{6\pi}}\\\\d=4.675\ cm

Therefore, the diameter of the needle is 4.675 cm.

A uniformly charged conducting sphere of 1.1 m diameter has a surface charge density of 6.2 µC/m2. (a) Find the net charge on th
ira [324]

Answer:

(a) q = 2.357 x 10⁻⁵ C

(b) Φ = 2.66 x 10⁶ N.m²/C

Explanation:

Given;

diameter of the sphere, d = 1.1 m

radius of the sphere, r = 1.1 / 2 = 0.55 m

surface charge density, σ = 6.2 µC/m²

(a)  Net charge on the sphere

q = 4πr²σ

where;

4πr² is surface area of the sphere

q is the net charge on the sphere

σ is the surface charge density

q = 4π(0.55)²(6.2 x 10⁻⁶)

q = 2.357 x 10⁻⁵ C

(b) the total electric flux leaving the surface of the sphere

Φ = q / ε

where;

Φ is the total electric flux leaving the surface of the sphere

ε is the permittivity of free space

Φ = (2.357 x 10⁻⁵) / (8.85 x 10⁻¹²)

Φ = 2.66 x 10⁶ N.m²/C
