2.31 (a) Two large conducting spheres carrying charges Q1 and Q2 are brought close to each other. Is the magnitude of electrostatic force between them exactly given by Q1Q2 /4 πε0r2 , where r is the distance between their centres?

(b) If Coulomb's law involved 1/ r3 dependence (instead of 1/ r2 ), would Gauss's law be still true ?

(c) A small test charge is released at rest at a point in an electrostatic field configuration. Will it travel along the field line passing through that point?

(d) What is the work done by the field of a nucleus in a complete circular orbit of the electron? What if t

2.31 The force between two conducting spheres is not exactly given by the expression Q1Q2 /4 ? ? 0r2 , because there is non-uniform charge distribution on the spheres.

Gauss's law will not be true, if Coulomb's law involved 1r3 dependence, instead of 1r2 , on r

Yes. If a small test charge is released at rest at a point in an electrostatic field configuration, then it will travel along the field lines passing through the point, only if the field lines are straight. This is because the field lines give the direction of acceleration and not the velocity.

Whenever the electron completes an orbit, either circular or elli

Explanation- mass of helicopter m =2000kg

Mass of the crew and passengers m= 500kg

Acceleration a =15m/s2 and g = 10m/s2

a) force on the floor of the helicopter by the crew and passengers

m (g+a)= 500 (10+15)N= 12500N

b) action of rotor of the helicopter on the surroundings air= (m1+m2) (g+a)

= (2000+500) (10+15)= 2500 (25)= 62500N

c) force on the helicopter due to surroundings air

= reaction of force applied by helicopter

= 62500N

Explanation -for the box to just starts sliding down mg

sin θ = t = μ N = μ m g c o s θ

tan θ = μ

θ = t a n - 1 ( μ )

b) when angle of inclination is increased to α > θ

F1= mgsin α - f = m g s i n α - μ N

= mg ( s i n α - μ c o s α )

c) to keep the box stationary, upward force needed F2= m g s i n α +f= mg ( s i n α + μ c o s α )

d) if the box is to move with an upward acceleration a then upward force needed 

F3=mg ( s i n α + μ c o s α )+ma

Explanation- on resolving forces into rectangular components in equilibrium forces (F1+1/ 2 )N are equal to 2 N  and F2 is equal to ( 2 + 1 / 2 )N

F1+1/ 2 = 2

F1= 2 - 1 / 2 = 2 - 1 2 = 1 2 = 0.707 N

F2= 2 + 1 2 = 2 + 1 2 = 3 2 = 2.121 N

Explanation – horizontal velocity ux= vs

During projectile motion horizontal velocity remains unchanged

Vx=ux=vs

In vertical direction vy2= uy2+2gH

Vy= 2 g H

Resultant speed of the ball at the bottom

V= v x 2 + v y 2

V= v s 2 + 2 g H

b) when ball is given horizontal velocity and a small downward velocity

in horizontal direction V'x=ux=vs

in vertical direction vy'2= uy2+2gH

resultant velocity of the ball at the bottom

v'= v s 2 + u 2 + 2 g H

Explanation- displacement vector of particle is r (t)=? Acos w t + ? Bsinwt

X=Acoswt

x/A= coswt………1

displacement along y axis is

y=Bsinwt

y/B= sinwt……….2

squaring and then adding eqn1 and 2 we get

x2/A2+y2/B2=cos2wt+sin2wt =1

this is an equation of ellipse. Therefore trajectory of particle is an ellipse.

b)v= dr/dt= id/dt (Acoswt)+jd/dt (Bsinwt)

 ? [A (-sinwt)w]+? [B (coswt).w]

= -? Awsinwt+? Bwcoswt

Acceleration a= dv/dt

So a= -? Awd/dt (sinwt)+? Bw [-sinwt]w

=? Aw2coswt-? Bsinwt

= -w2r

So force acting on the particle f=ma=-mrw2

Explanation – centripetal force, F= mv2/r= f= μ N = μ m g

V= μ r g

For path ABC path length =3/4 (2 π 2 R )= 3 π R = 3 π 100 = 300 π

V1= μ 2 R g = 0.1 * 100 * 10 = 1.414 m / s

So t= 300 π 1.414 = 66.6 s

For path DEF  path length = 1 4 2 π R = 50 π

V2= μ R g = 0.1 * 100 * 10 = 10 m s

So t2= 50 π 10 = 15.7s

For path CD and FA

Path length =R+R= 200m

T= 200/50= 4s

Total time = 66.6+15.7+4= 86.3s

Explanation- vx=2t for 0

= 2 (2-t) for 1

=0 for t>2s

Vy= t for 0

= 1 for t>1s

Fx= max= mdvx/dt= 1 (2)

Fy = may= mdvy/dt

= 1 (1) for 0

F= Fx? +Fy?

= 2? +?

=-2?

=0

Explanation- as angle is 45

On smooth inclined plane acceleration will be a = gsin θ

So acceleration will become a= g/ 2

Using equation of motion s =ut +1/2at2

S= 1 2 g 2 T 2

On rough inclined plane a = g (sin θ - μ c o s θ )

= g (sin 45 - μ c o s 45 )= g ( 1 - μ ) 2

So s=ut +1/2at2

S= 0+ 1 2 g 1 - μ 2 ( p T ) 2

Comparing two above distance

12g1-μ2 (pT)2= 12g2T2

So after solving we get μ= (1-1/p2)

Explanation – as body moving with uniform acceleration a=0

The sum of forces is zero F1+F2+F3=0

a)let F1, F2, F3 be the three forces passing through the point . let F1and F2 be in the plane A

so F3 =- (F1+F2) so F3 is also in plane A.

b)consider the torque of the forces about P . since all the forces pass through P the torque is zero

torque = OP (F1+F2+F3)

since F1+F2+F3=0 so torque =0
