Chapter 32, Problem 24A
Three separate pairs of uncharged metal spheres are in contact. A (positively or negatively) charged rod is brought up to the same distance from each set of spheres. Rank the resulting charge on each sphere from greatest positive to greatest negative.
Expert Solution & Answer
To determine
Ranking of resulting charge from greatest positive to greatest negative.
Answer to Problem 24A
Explanation of Solution
Introduction:
The property which causes the matter to experience a force, when an object is placed in an electromagnetic field is defined as electric charge.
Separation of opposite charges in an object is defined as polarization.
According to the given situation, a positively charged rod is brought close to the top pair of spheres due to which the negative charge will set up on the sphere A and all the positive charge will build up on sphere B. in case of middle set of spheres, a positively charged rod is brought closer to them and as the spheres C and D are aligned in such a way that the charge will be equally distributed in between them. Lastly, a negatively charged rod is brought closer to the spheres E and F, due to which the sphere E will be positively charged while sphere F will be negatively charged.
Hence, the ranking is given by:
Conclusion:
Thus, the ranking from greatest positive to greatest negative is

- 10. Imagine you have a system in which you have 54 grams of ice. You can melt this ice and then vaporize it all at 0 C. The melting and vaporization are done reversibly into a balloon held at a pressure of 0.250 bar. Here are some facts about water you may wish to know. The density of liquid water at 0 C is 1 g/cm³. The density of ice at 0 C is 0.917 g/cm³. The enthalpy of vaporization of liquid water is 2.496 kJ/gram and the enthalpy of fusion of solid water is 333.55 J/gram.arrow_forwardConsider 1 mole of supercooled water at -10°C.

- 3. The entropy of an ideal gas is S = Nkg In V. Entropy is a state function rather than a path function, and in this problem, you will show an example of the entropy change for an ideal gas being the same when you go between the same two states by two different pathways. A. Express ASV = S2 (V2) - S₁(V1), the change in entropy upon changing the volume from V₁to V2, at fixed particle number N and energy, U. B. Express ASN = S₂(N₂) - S₁ (N₁), the change in entropy upon changing the particle number from N₁ to N2, at fixed volume V and energy U. C. Write an expression for the entropy change, AS, for a two-step process (V₁, N₁) → (V2, N₁) → (V2, N₂) in which the volume changes first at fixed particle number, then the particle number changes at fixed volume. Again, assume energy is constant.arrow_forwardPlease don't use Chatgpt will upvote and give handwritten solutionarrow_forward6. We used the constant volume heat capacity, Cv, when we talked about thermodynamic cycles. It acts as a proportionality constant between energy and temperature: dU = C₁dT. You can also define a heat capacity for constant pressure processes, Cp. You can think of enthalpy playing a similar role to energy, but for constant pressure processes δαρ C = (37) - Sup Ср ат P = ат Starting from the definition of enthalpy, H = U + PV, find the relationship between Cy and Cp for an ideal gas.arrow_forward
