Sitting in a second-story apartment, a physicist notices a ball moving straight upward just outside her window. The ball is visi

Answer:

1. The sun is moved away from the Earth by an equal force exerted by the Earth.

Answer:

σ₁ = C/m²

σ₂ =  C/m²

Explanation:

Provided Information:

i) Smaller sphere's radius ( r ) = 5 cm.

ii) Larger sphere's radius ( R ) = 12 cm.

iii) Electric field at the larger sphere's surface  ( E₁ ) = 358 kV/m, which is equivalent to 358 * 1000 v/m

Charge (Q₁) = 572.8 C

Since the electric field inside a conductor is zero, the electric potential ( V ) remains constant.

V = constant

∴

  = C

Surface charge density ( σ₁ ) for the larger sphere.

Calculated Area ( A₁ )  = 4 * π * R²  = 4 * 3.14 * 0.12 = 0.180864 m².

σ₁  = = =  C/m².

Surface charge density ( σ₂ ) for the smaller sphere.

Calculated Area ( A₂ )  = 4 * π * r²  = 4 * 3.14 * 0.05²  = 0.0314 m².

σ₂ = = = C/m²

Answer:

Explanation:

The data indicates that point A is located midway between two charges.

To calculate the electric field at point A, we begin with the field produced by charge -Q ( 6e⁻ ) at A:

= 9 x 10⁹ x 6 x 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ / (2.5)² x 10⁻⁴

= 13.82 x 10⁻⁶ N/C

This field points towards Q⁻.

A similar field will arise from the charge Q⁺, but it will direct away from Q⁺ toward Q⁻.

To find the resultant field, we add these contributions:

= 2 x 13.82 x 10⁻⁶

= 27.64 x 10⁻⁶ N/C

For the force acting on an electron placed at A:

= charge x field

= 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ x 27.64 x 10⁻⁶

= 44.22 x 10⁻²⁵ N

Answer:

Explanation:

Amount of gold deposited = 0.5 g

Gold's molar mass = 197 g/mol

Time duration, t = 6 hours

= 6 × 3600

= 12600 s

Calculation of moles: mass/molar mass

= 0.5/197

= 0.00254 mole

Assuming

Au --> Au+ + e-

Faraday's constant = 9.65 x 10^4 C mol-1

Charge, Q = 96500 × 0.00254

= 244.924 C

Relation: Q = I × t

Thus, I = 244.924/12600

= 0.011 A

= 11.34 mA.
