Two tiny conducting spheres are identical and carry charges of -19.8μC and +40.7μC. They are separated by a distance of 3.59 cm.

romanna [79]

Answer:

(a): $\rm -5.627\times 10^3\ N.$

(b): $\rm 7.626\times 10^2\ N.$

Explanation:

<u>Given:</u>

Charge on one sphere, $\rm q_1 = -19.8\ \mu C = -19.8\times 10^{-6}\ C.$

Charge on second sphere, $\rm q_2 = +40.7\ \mu C = +40.7\times 10^{-6}\ C.$
Separation between the spheres, $\rm r=3.59\ cm = 3.59\times 10^{-2}\ m.$

Part (a):

According to Coulomb's law, the magnitude of the electrostatic force of interaction between two static point charges is given by

$\rm F=k\cdot\dfrac{q_1q_2}{r^2}$

where,

k is called the Coulomb's constant, whose value is $\rm 9\times 10^9\ Nm^2/C^2.$

From Newton's third law of motion, both the spheres experience same force.

Therefore, the magnitude of the force that each sphere experiences is given by

$\rm F=k\cdot\dfrac{q_1q_2}{r^2}\\=9\times 10^9\times \dfrac{(-19.8\times 10^{-6})\times (+40.7\times 10^{-6})}{(3.59\times 10^{-2})^2}\\=-5.627\times 10^3\ N.$

The negative sign shows that the force is attractive in nature.

Part (b):

The spheres are identical in size. When the spheres are brought in contact with each other then the charge on both the spheres redistributes in such a way that the net charge on both the spheres distributed equally on both.

Total charge on both the spheres, $\rm Q=q_1+q_2=-19.8\ \mu C+40.7\ \mu C = 20.9\ \mu C.$

The new charges on both the spheres are equal and given by

$\rm q_1'=q_2'=\dfrac Q2 = \dfrac{20.9}{2}\ \mu C=10.45\ \mu C = 10.45\times 10^{-6}\ C.$

The magnitude of the force that each sphere now experiences is given by

$\rm F'=k\cdot \dfrac{q_1'q_2'}{r^2}'\\=9\times 10^9\times \dfrac{10.45\times 10^{-6}\times 10.45\times 10^{-6}}{(3.59\times 10^{-2})^2}\\=7.626\times 10^2\ N.$

A convex security mirror has a radius of curvature of 12.0 cm. What is the magnification of a pare 3.0 m from the mirror?

Makovka662 [10]

Answer:

magnification will be -0.025

Explanation:

We have given the radius of curvature = 12 cm

And object distance = 3 m

So focal length $f=\frac{R}{2}=\frac{12}{2}=6cm$

Now for mirror we know that $\frac{1}{f}=\frac{1}{u}+\frac{1}{v}$

So $\frac{1}{0.06}=\frac{1}{3}+\frac{1}{v}$

$16.66-0.333=\frac{1}{v}$

v = 0.750 m

Now magnification of the mirror is $m=\frac{-v}{u}=\frac{-0.750}{3}=-0.025$

2 equal charges are kept at x=a and x=-a. there can be only 1 point where the electric field will be 0? how, can anyone explain?

svet-max [94.6K]

Answer:

At the midpoint of the line joining the two equal charges

Explanation:

The midpoint of the line joining the two equal charges has equal distance from each charge. Since the charges are at x = a and x = -a, at the midpoint of the line joining the two equal charges, the magnitude of the electric field experienced as a result of each charge is the same. But these two fields are in opposite direction, hence the net resulting electric field would be equal to zero.
