Answer to Problem 89QAP

An expression for the electric field in the radial region ri is, Er<Ri=0

Explanation of Solution

Given:

Radius of inner sphere, Ri

Surface Charge density for inner sphere, +σi

Radius of outer sphere, Ro

Surface Charge density for outer sphere, σo

Formula used:

The electric force is given by,
  E=σ2ε0

Where,
  E =Electric field
  σ = Surface charges density
  ε0 =Permittivity of free space

Calculation:

The sphere is conducting. The charge enclosed by the sphere is zero. Thus, the electric field inside the sphere is zero.
  Er<Ri=0

Answer to Problem 89QAP

An expression for the electric field in the radial region Rio is, ERi<r<Ro=σiRi2ε0r2 and directed outside from the sphere.

Explanation of Solution

Given:

Radius of inner sphere, Ri

Surface Charge density for inner sphere, +σi

Radius of outer sphere, Ro

Surface Charge density for outer sphere, σo

Formula used:

The electric force is given by,
  E=Q4πε0r2

Where,
  E =Electric field
  Q = Charge
  ε0 =Permittivity of free space
r=Distance

Calculation:

The electric force is given by,
  E=Q4πε0r2

But, Q=σiA

  E=σi4πRi24πε0r2ERi<r<Ro=σiRi2ε0r2

It is directed outside from the sphere.

To determine

(c)

Answer to Problem 89QAP

An expression for the electric field in the radial region r>Rois, E=σiRi2σoRo2ε0r2

Explanation of Solution

Given:

Radius of inner sphere, Ri

Surface Charge density for inner sphere, +σi

Radius of outer sphere, Ro

Surface Charge density for outer sphere, σo

Formula used:

The electric force is given by,
  E=Q4πε0r2

Where,
  E =Electric field
  Q = Charge
  ε0 =Permittivity of free space
r=DistanceCalculation:

The electric field is given by,
  E=Q4πε0r2

But, Q=σiA

  Ei=σi4πRi24πε0r2Ei=σiRi2ε0r2

And
  Eo=σi4πRo24πε0r2Eo=σiRo2ε0r2

The electric field is given by,
  E=EiEoE=σiRi2ε0r2σoRo2ε0r2E=σiRi2σoRo2ε0r2

If the value of σiRi2σoRo2>1 The field is directed outwards.

If the value of σiRi2σoRo2<1 The field is directed inwards.

Required information A bungee jumper leaps from a bridge and undergoes a series of oscillations. Assume g = 9.78 m/s². If a 60.0-kg jumper uses a bungee cord that has an unstretched length of 30.1 m and she jumps from a height of 45.2 m above a river, coming to rest just a few centimeters above the water surface on the first downward descent, what is the period of the oscillations? Assume the bungee cord follows Hooke's law.
Required information The leg bone (femur) breaks under a compressive force of about 6.50 × 104 N for a human and 12.3 × 104 N for a horse. The human femur has a compressive strength of 160 MPa, whereas the horse femur has a compressive strength of 140 MPa. What is the effective cross-sectional area of the femur in a horse? (Note: Since the center of the femur contains bone marrow, which has essentially no compressive strength, the effective cross-sectional area is about 80% of the total cross-sectional area.) cm2
