Is it advisable to use wooden sphere for the dome of a van de graaf genarator?

Using a wooden sphere for the dome of a Van de Graaff generator is not advisable as wood is not a conductive material, which is necessary for the generator to function properly. A metal sphere or other conductive material would be more suitable for the dome of a Van de Graaff generator.


Why is Uranus a sphere?

Uranus, like most astronomical bodies of its size, is a sphere due to gravity. The planet's own gravity pulls its material in towards its center, creating a spherical shape. Additionally, over time, collisions and pressure from within also contribute to shaping it into a sphere.


A glass sphere and a lead sphere have the same volume. Each sphere is dropped into a container of water. Which statement best explains why the lead sphere settles faster?

The lead sphere settles faster than the glass sphere because it is denser; density is defined as mass per unit volume. Since both spheres have the same volume, the lead sphere, being made of a heavier material, has a greater mass. This increased mass results in a stronger gravitational force acting on the lead sphere, causing it to accelerate downwards more quickly than the lighter glass sphere. Additionally, the buoyant force acting on both spheres is the same, so the lead sphere's greater weight allows it to overcome buoyancy more effectively.

What is the relationship between the electric field and a sphere?

The electric field around a sphere is directly related to the charge distribution on the surface of the sphere. The electric field is stronger closer to the surface of the sphere and weaker further away, following the inverse square law.

A sphere of linear magnetic material is placed in an otherwise uniform magnetic field Bo find the new field inside the sphere?

The new field inside the sphere will be weaker than the external field due to the magnetic properties of the material. The ratio between the internal and external fields can be determined by the material's magnetic susceptibility. The field inside the sphere will be B = Bo / (1 + χ), where Bo is the external field and χ is the magnetic susceptibility of the material.

What is the relationship between the voltage inside a uniformly charged sphere and the distribution of charge within the sphere?

The voltage inside a uniformly charged sphere is directly related to the distribution of charge within the sphere. As the charge distribution becomes more uniform, the voltage inside the sphere becomes more evenly distributed. This means that the voltage is higher towards the center of the sphere where the charge is concentrated, and decreases towards the surface where the charge is spread out.
