Two thin concentric spherical shells of radii r1 and r2 (r1 < r2) contain uniform surface charge densities V1 and V2, respectively. Determine the electric field for (a) 0 < r < r1 , (b) r1 < r < r2 and (c) r > r2. (d) Under what conditions

Answer is explained in the explanation section below.

Explanation:

Solution:

We know that the Electric field inside the thin hollow shell is zero, if there is no charge inside it.

So,

a)  0 < r < r1 :

We know that the Electric field inside the thin hollow shell is zero, if there is no charge inside it.

Hence, E = 0 for r < r1

b)  r1 < r < r2:

Electric field =?

Let, us consider the Gaussian Surface,

E x 4  =

So,

Rearranging the above equation to get Electric field, we will get:

E =

Multiply and divide by

E = x

Rearranging the above equation, we will get Electric Field for r1 < r < r2:

E= (σ1 x ) /( x )

c) r > r2 :

Electric Field = ?

E x 4  =

Rearranging the above equation for E:

E =

E = +

As we know from above, that:

=  (σ1 x ) /( x )

Then, Similarly,

= (σ2 x ) /( x )

So,

E = +

Replacing the above equations to get E:

E = (σ1 x ) /( x ) + (σ2 x ) /( x )

Now, for

d) Under what conditions,  E = 0, for r > r2?

For r > r2, E =0 if

σ1 x = - σ2 x

hello, i am papaguy.

i have found an answer to your question but use it as information.

information: because weak acids/bases have low concentration of hydrogen ions, the addition of water has a large impact on the ph. 2. a difference in 1 unit is a 10x difference in concentration for example; a liquid with ph of 3 is 10x more acidic than a liquid with a ph of 4. therefore, a liquid with a ph of 3 is stronger.

best of luck!
