Outside a spherically symmetric charge distribution of net charge Q, Gauss's law can be used to show that the electric field at a given distance:. A) must be directed inward.
B) acts like it originated in a point charge Q at the center of the distribution.
C) must be directed outward.
D) must be greater than zero.
E) must be zero.

Na food processing facility, a spherical container of inner radius r1 5 40 cm, outer radius r2 5 41 cm, and ther- mal conductivity k 5 1.5 w/m · k is used to store hot water and to keep it at 100°c at all times. to accomplish this, the outer surface of the container is wrapped with a 800-w electric strip heater and then insulated. the temperature of the inner surface of the container is observed to be nearly 120°c at all times. as- suming 10 percent of the heat generated in the heater is lost through the insulation, (a) express the differential equation and the boundary conditions for steady one-dimensional heat conduction through the container, (b) obtain a relation for the variation of temperature in the container material by solving the differential equation, and (c) evaluate the outer surface tempera- ture of the container. also determine how much water at 100°c this tank can supply steadily if the cold water enters at 20°c.

The dipole moment of the water molecule (h2o) is 6.17x10^-30 c.m. consider a water molecule located at the origin whose dipole moment p points in the +x-direction. a chlorine ion ( of charge-1.60x10^-19c , is located at x=3.00x10^-9m . assume that is much larger than the separation d between the charges in the dipole, so that the approximate expression for the electric field along the dipole axis can be used. a) find the magnitude of the electric force that the water molecule exerts on the chlorine ion. b) what is the direction of the electric force. -x-direction or +x-direction c) is this force attractive or repulsive?

Use the ratio form of kepler’s third law, = , and the data provided to determine the time it takes mars to orbit the sun. round your answer to the nearest tenth. earth’s orbital period = 1.0 earth year earth’s distance from the sun = 1.0 au mars’s distance from the sun = 1.5 au it takes mars about ⇒ 1.8 earth years to orbit the sun.
