Two spherical shells have a common center. A -1.50 × 10-6 C charge is spread uniformly over the inner shell, which has a radius of 0.050 m. A +4.50 × 10-6 C charge is spread uniformly over the outer shell, which has a radius of 0.15 m. Find the magnitude and direction of the electric field at a distance (measured from the common center) of. a: 0.20m

b: 0.10m

c: 0.025m

a) At 0.20 m, the magnitude of the field is 675.0 kV

The direction of the field is acting outwards from the center of the charged spheres

b) At 0.10 m, the magnitude of the field is 135 kV

The direction is acting outwards from the center of the charged spheres

c) At 0.025 m

The magnitude of the field, V = -270.0 kV

The direction of the field is inwards, towards the center of the charged spheres

Explanation:

The charged spherical shell parameters are;

The charge on the inner sphere, q₁ = -1.50 × 10⁻⁶ C

The radius of the inner shell, R₁ = 0.050 m

The charge on the outer sphere, q₂ = +4.50 × 10⁻⁶ C

The radius of the outer shell, R₂ = 0.15 m

Let 'r', represent the distance at which the electric field is measured, the following relationships can be obtained;

When r < R₁ < R₂,

When R₁ < r < R₂,

When R₁ < R₂ < r,

a) When r = 0.20 m, we have;

R₁ < R₂ < r, therefore

By plugging in the values, we get;

Therefore, the magnitude of the field, V = 675.0 kV

The direction of the field is outwards

b) When r = 0.10 m, we have;

When R₁ < r < R₂, therefore;

By plugging in the values, we get;

Therefore, the magnitude of the field, V = 135 kV

The direction of the field is outwards from the center

c) When r = 0.025 m, we have;

When r < R₁ < R₂, therefore;

By plugging in the values, we get;

Therefore, the magnitude of the field, V = -270.0 kV

The direction of the field is inwards, towards the center of the charged spheres.

waves moving from a fast medium to a slow medium will experience a reflection as light travels more slowly than red light. total internal reflection occurs when the critical angle is.
