Answer:
A. Equals to that of the smaller sphere
B. 3 times less than that of the smaller sphere
Explanation:
(a) Equals to that of the smaller sphere
The potential of an isolated metal sphere, with charge Q and radius R, is kQ=R, so a sphere with charge 3Q and radius 3R has the same potential
b) 3 times less than that of the smaller sphere
However, the electric field at the surface of the smaller sphere is ?=? 0 = kQ=R2 , so tripling Q and R reduces the surface field by a factor of 1/3
If four students separately measure the density of a rock, and they all have very low percent
differences between their measurements, what can you say for certain about the accuracy of their
results?
Answer:
Their measured results are closer to the exact or true value. Hence, their measured value is considered to be more accurate.
Explanation:
Considering the situation described above, the accuracy of a measured value depicts how closely a measured value is to the accurate value.
Hence, since the students' measured values have very low percent differences, it shows the similarity of computations or estimates to the actual values, which in turn offers a smaller measurement error.
Therefore, their measured results are closer to the exact or true value, which implies that their measured value is considered to be more accurate.

A 34-m length of wire is stretched horizontally between two vertical posts. The wire carries a current of 68 A and experiences a magnetic force of 0.16 N. Find the magnitude of the earth's magnetic field at the location of the wire, assuming the field makes an angle of 72.0° with respect to the wire.
Answer:
7.28×10⁻⁵ T
Explanation:
Applying,
F = BILsin∅............. Equation 1
Where F = magnetic force, B = earth's magnetic field, I = current flowing through the wire, L = Length of the wire, ∅ = angle between the field and the wire.
make B the subject of the equation
B = F/ILsin∅.................. Equation 2
From the question,
Given: F = 0.16 N, I = 68 A, L = 34 m, ∅ = 72°
Substitute these values into equation 2
B = 0.16/(68×34×sin72°)
B = 0.16/(68×34×0.95)
B = 0.16/2196.4
B = 7.28×10⁻⁵ T
A bullet is fired vertically upward a velocity of 80m/s to what height will the bullet rise above the point of projection
Answer:
The bullet will rise 320 meters above the point of projection.
Explanation:
Assuming that air friction is negligent we can use the kinematic equation:
[tex]v_{2} ^2=v_{1} ^2+2(-a)d\\0\frac{m^2}{s^2} =6400\frac{m^2}{s^2} +2(-10\frac{m}{s^2} )d\\-6400\frac{m^2}{s^2} =(-20\frac{m}{s^2}) d\\320m=d[/tex]
*acceleration is negative (-a) as it is acting in the opposite direction of the motion of the bullet.*
The bullet rises to a height of 3600 m if a bullet is fired upward with a velocity of 80 m/s.
Assume the air friction is negligible, the kinematic equation:
[tex]v_f^2 = v_i^2 +2(-a) d[/tex]
Where,
[tex]v_i^2[/tex] - iinitial velocity = 80 m/s
[tex]v_f^2[/tex]- final velocity = 0
[tex]d[/tex]- distance= ?
[tex]a[/tex]- gravitational acceleration = 9.8 m/s² = 10 m/s²
Put the values in the formula,
[tex]\begin {aligne} 0 = (80)^2 + 2 (10)^2 d\\\\d = \dfrac {6400}{ 200}\\\\d &= 3600 \rm \ m\end {aligne}\\[/tex]
Therefore, the bullet rises to a height of 3600 m if a bullet is fired upward with a velocity of 80 m/s.

A certain heating element is made out of Nichrome wire and used with the standard voltage source of V=120 V. Immediately after the voltage is turned on, the current running through the element is measured at I1=1.28 A and its temperature at T1=25°C. As the heating element warms up and reaches its steady-state (operating) temperature, the current becomes I2=1.229 A.
Required:
Find this steady-state temperature T2.
Answer:
T₁ = 232.5 ºC
Explanation:
For this exercise let's start by finding the value of the resistance for the two currents, using Ohm's law
V = i R
R = V / i
i₀ = 1.28 A
R₀ = 120 / 1.28
R₀ = 93.75 ohm
i₁ = 1.229 A
R₁ = 120 / 1.229
R₁ = 97.64 or
Resistance in a metal is linear with temperature
ΔR = α R₀ ΔT
where the coefficient of thermal expansion for Nichrome is α=0.0002 C⁻¹
ΔT = [tex]\frac{\Delta R}{\alpha R_o}[/tex]
ΔT = [tex]\frac{97.64 \ -93.75}{ 0.00020 \ 93.75}[/tex]
ΔT = 2,075 10² C
ΔT = T₁-T₀ = 2,075 10²
T₁ = T₀ + 207.5
T₁ = 25+ 207.5
T₁ = 232.5 ºC
A baseball pitcher brings his arm forward during a pitch, rotating the forearm about the elbow. If the velocity of the ball in the pitcher's hand is 34.0 m/s and the ball is 0.310 m from the elbow joint, what is the angular velocity (in rad/s) of the forearm

The string will be 108 cm long when it is stretched to the point where it becomes plastic.
What is elasticity?Elasticity in physics and materials science refers to a body's capacity to withstand a force that causes distortion and to recover its original dimensions once the force has been withdrawn.
When sufficient loads are applied, solid objects will deform; if the material is elastic, the object will return to its original size and shape after the weights have been removed. Unlike plasticity, which prevents this from happening and causes the item to stay deformed,
Given parameters:
The elastic extensibility of a piece of string is 0.08.
The string is 100 cm long.
Hence, it becomes plastic, after it is stretched up to = 100 × 0.08 cm = 8 cm. The string will be 108 cm long.

Two identical cars, each traveling at 16 m>s, slam into a concrete wall and come to rest. In car A the air bag does not deploy and the driver hits the steering wheel; in car B the driver contacts the deployed air bag. (a) Is the impulse delivered by the steering wheel to driver A greater than, less than, or equal to the impulse delivered by the air bag to driver B
Answer:
I = - m 16 the two impulses are the same,
Explanation:
The impulse is given by the relationship
I = Δp
I = p_f - p₀
in this case the final velocity is zero therefore p_f = 0
I = -p₀
For driver A the steering wheel impulse is
I = - m v₀
I = - m 16
For driver B, the airbag gives an impulse
I = - m 16
We can see that the two impulses are the same, the difference is that in the air bag more time is used to give this impulse therefore the force on the driver is less

A 1030 kg car has four 12.0 kg wheels. When the car is moving, what fraction of the total kinetic energy of the car is due to rotation of the wheels about their axles
Answer:
The required fraction is 0.023.
Explanation:
Given that
Mass of a car, m = 1030 kg
Mass of 4 wheels = 12 kg
We need to find the fraction of the total kinetic energy of the car is due to rotation of the wheels about their axles.
The rotational kinetic energy due to four wheel is
[tex]=4\times \dfrac{1}{2}I\omega^2\\\\=4\times \dfrac{1}{2}\times \dfrac{1}{2}mR^2(\dfrac{v}{R})^2\\\\=mv^2[/tex]
Linear kinetic Energy of the car is:
[tex]=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2\\\\=\dfrac{1}{2}\times Mv^2[/tex]
Fraction,
[tex]f=\dfrac{mv^2}{\dfrac{1}{2}Mv^2}\\\\f=\dfrac{m}{\dfrac{1}{2}M}\\\\f=\dfrac{12}{\dfrac{1}{2}\times 1030}\\\\=0.023[/tex]
So, the required fraction is 0.023.

A CD is spinning on a CD player. In 12 radians, the cd has reached an angular speed of 17 r a d s by accelerating with a constant acceleration of 3 r a d s 2 . What was the initial angular speed of the CD
Answer:
The initial angular speed of the CD is equal to 14.73 rad/s.
Explanation:
Given that,
Angular displacement, [tex]\theta=12\ rad[/tex]
Final angular speed, [tex]\omega_f=17\ rad/s[/tex]
The acceleration of the CD,[tex]\alpha =3\ rad/s^2[/tex]
We need to find the initial angular speed of the CD. Using third equation of kinematics to find it such that,

The liquid travels upward 6.0 m and enters a tank at a gauge pressure of 2,000 Pa. The diameter of the pipe remains constant. At what speed does the liquid enter the tank
Answer:
v₂ = 15.24 m / s
Explanation:
This is an exercise in fluid mechanics
Let's write Bernoulli's equation, where the subscript 1 is for the factory pipe and the subscript 2 is for the tank.
P₁ + ½ ρ v₁² + ρ g y₁ = P₂ + ½ ρ v₂² + ρ g y₂
They indicate the pressure in the factory P₁ = 140000 Pa, the velocity
v₁ = 5.5 m / s and the initial height is zero y₁ = 0
the tank is at a pressure of P2 = 2000 Pa and a height of y₂ = 6.0 m
P₁ -P₂ + ρ g (y₁ -y₂) + ½ ρ v₁² = ½ ρ v₂²
let's calculate
140,000 - 2000 + ρ 9.8 (0- 6) + ½ ρ 5.5² = ½ ρ v₂²
138000 - ρ 58.8 + ρ 15.125 = ½ ρ v2²
v₂² = 2 (138000 /ρ - 58.8 + 15.125)
v₂ = [tex]\sqrt{\frac{276000}{\rho } - 43.675 }[/tex]
In the exercise they do not indicate what type of liquid is being used, suppose it is water with

A 12.0 g sample of gas occupies 19.2 L at STP. what is the of moles and molecular weight of this gas?
At STP, 1 mole of an ideal gas occupies a volume of about 22.4 L. So if n is the number of moles of this gas, then
n / (19.2 L) = (1 mole) / (22.4 L) ==> n = (19.2 L•mole) / (22.4 L) ≈ 0.857 mol
If the sample has a mass of 12.0 g, then its molecular weight is
(12.0 g) / n ≈ 14.0 g/mol

Answer:
Explanation:
For frequencies n generated in a string , the expression is as follows
n = 1 /2L√ ( T/m )
n is fundamental frequency , T is tension in string , m is mass per unit length and L is length of string.
If T and m are constant , then
n x L = constant , hence n is inversely proportional to L or length of string.
Frequencies increase by 21/12 = 1.75 , length must decrease by 1 / 1.75 times
Initial length of string is 65 cm .
x1 = 65 x 1 / 1.75 = 37.14 cm
x2 = 37.14 x 1/ 1.75 = 21.22 cm
x3 = 21.22 x 1 / 1.75 = 12.12 cm
x4= 12.12 x 1 / 1.75 = 6.92 cm
x5 = 6.92 x 1 / 1.75 = 3.95 cm
x6 = 3.95 x 1 / 1.75 = 2.25 cm

Answer:
t = 1.27 x 10⁹ s
Explanation:
First, we will find the volume of the wire:
Volume = V = AL
where,
A = Cross-sectional area of wire = πr² = π(1 cm)² = π(0.01 m)² = 3.14 x 10⁻⁴ m²
L = Length of wire = 150 km = 150000 m
Therefore,
V = 47.12 m³
Now, we will find the number of electrons in the wire:
No. of electrons = n = (Electrons per unit Volume)(V)
n = (8.43 x 10²⁸ electrons/m³)(47.12 m³)
n = 3.97 x 10³⁰ electrons
Now, we will use the formula of current to find out the time taken by each electron to cross the wire:
[tex]I =\frac{q}{t}[/tex]
where,
t = time = ?
I = current = 500 A
q = total charge = (n)(chareg on one electron)
q = (3.97 x 10³⁰ electrons)(1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ C/electron)
q = 6.36 x 10¹¹ C
[tex]500\ A = \frac{6.36\ x\ 10^{11}\ C}{t}\\\\t = \frac{6.36\ x\ 10^{11}\ C}{500\ A}[/tex]

To find the Area, we use the following the expression.
C = ε₀εrA / d
we know that The permittivity of free space, ε₀ = 8.854 x 10⁻¹² (F/m)
we substitute
0.3 × 10⁻⁶ = [ (8.854 x 10⁻¹²) × 2.35 × A ] / 7.85 × 10⁻⁵
A = [ (0.3 × 10⁻⁶) × (7.85 × 10⁻⁵) ] / [ 2.35 × (8.854 x 10⁻¹²) ]
A = 2.355 × 10⁻¹¹ / 2.08069 × 10⁻¹¹
A = 1.1318 m²
Therefore, required area is 1.1318 m²
b)
the maximum potential difference that can be applied across the compactor.
We use the following expression;
⇒ 1/2 × dielectric strength × thickness d
we substitute
⇒ 1/2 × ( 49.5 × 10⁶ V/m ) × ( 7.85 × 10⁻⁵ m )
⇒ 1931.1 V
Therefore, the maximum potential difference that can be applied across the compactor is 1931.1 V
