When a charge is placed on a metal sphere, it ends up in equilibrium at the outer surface. Use this information to determine the
Maru [3345]

Answer:

a

The value at a point inside is Zero

b

The electric field is E = 2.7*10^{6} \ N/C

Explanation:

We know from the problem that

The charge magnitude is q = 3.0 \mu C = 3.0 *10^{-6} \ C

The radius of the spherical ball is r = 5.0 \ mm = 0.005 \ m

According to Gauss’s law, the enclosed charge within a conductor is zero which indicates that the electric field within the spherical ball is zero

On the outside, the electric field around the spherical ball is mathematically expressed as

E = \frac{kq}{ a^2}

Here a denotes a point outside the spherical ball with its value of a = 10 \ cm = \frac{10}{100} = 0.1 \ m

and k represents Coulomb's constant, valued at

k = 9*10^{9}\ kg\cdot m^3\cdot s^{-4} \cdot A^{-2}.

=> E = \frac{ 3 *10^{-6} * 9*10^9 }{ (0.1)^2}

=> E = 2.7*10^{6} \ N/C

Two electrodes, separated by a distance d, in a vacuum are maintained at a constant potential difference. An electron, accelerat
Yuliya22 [3333]

Answer:

Explanation:

The distance between the electrodes is denoted as d.

The kinetic energy of the electron is represented as Ek when the electrodes are positioned at a distance of "d" apart.

Our goal is to determine the kinetic energy when they are separated by a distance of d/3.

K.E = ½mv²

It’s important to note that the mass remains constant; only velocity varies.

Additionally,

K.E = Work done by the electron

K.E = F × d

K.E = W = ma × d

Assuming constant acceleration

Hence, m and a are fixed,

therefore,

K.E is directly related to d

Thus, as d increases, K.E increases, and conversely, when d decreases, K.E decreases.

Consequently,

K.E_1 / d_1 = K.E_2 / d_2

With K.E_1 equating to E_k

and d_1 being d

while d_2 is represented as d/3

This leads to K.E_2 = K.E_1 / d_1 × d_2

Thus, K.E_2 = E_k × ⅓d / d

Finally,

K.E_2 = ⅓E_k

Therefore, the resultant kinetic energy is one third of the original E_k

The position of an object is given by x = at3 - bt2 + ct,where a = 4.1 m/s3, b = 2.2 m/s2, c = 1.7 m/s, and x and t are in SI un
serg [3582]

Answer:

The response to your inquiry is: 15 m/s²

Explanation:

Equation    x = at³ - bt² + ct

a = 4.1 m/s³

b = 2.2 m/s²

c = 1.7 m/s

First we calculate x at t = 4.1 s

x = 4.1(4.1)³ - 2.2(4.1)² + 1.7(4.1)

x = 4.1(68.921) - 2.2(16.81) + 6.97

x = 282.58 - 36.98 + 6.98

x = 252.58 m

Now we calculate speed

v = x/t = 252.58/ 4.1 = 61.6 m/s

Finally

acceleration = v/t = 61.6/4.1 = 15 m/s²

Determine the final state and temperature of 100 g of water originally at 25.0°c after 50.0 kj of heat have been added to it.
inna [3103]
The heat required to raise the temperature of a substance by \Delta T is represented by
Q=m C_p \Delta T
where m stands for the mass of the substance and C_p indicates the specific heat of the substance. In this situation, we possess m=100~g=0.1~Kg and C_p=4.19~KJ/(Kg K), the specific heat of water.
Consequently, we can ascertain the temperature rise \Delta T:
\Delta T = \frac{Q}{m C_p}= \frac{50~KJ}{0.1~Kg cdot 4.19~KJ/(Kg K)}=119~K =119^{\circ}C
Initially, the water's temperature was 25^{\circ}C, so the end temperature should be
T_f = 25^{\circ}C+119^{\circ}C=144^{\circ}C
Thus, the water is expected to be vapor by now.

However, to give a more accurate statement, during the liquid to vapor transition, the heat added to the system is used to break molecular bonds instead of raising the system's temperature. The heat necessary for the phase change from liquid to vapor is expressed as
Q=m C_L=0.1~Kg \cdot 2265~KJ/Kg=226.5~KJ
where C_L denotes the latent heat of vaporization for water.
Nevertheless, the initial heat input of 50 KJ is less than this requirement, indicating there isn't sufficient heat to finish the liquid-vapor transition. Therefore, the water will remain in the liquid-vapor change phase at a temperature of 100^{\circ}C (the temperature at which the phase change begins)
