A non-conducting sphere of radius R centered at O contains a spherical cavity of radius R’ centered at O'. Let d be the displacement of O’relative to 0. Throughout the sphere, there is a uniform charge density rho_0 (except inside the cavity, which is uncharged). (a) Use the principle of superposition to write down an expression for E(r) everywhere. (b) Repeat (a) for the electric potential b(r).

10. Assume there is a certain type of celestial object in the universe that is born, matures, ages, and eventually dies. All of these objects were born at essentially the same time in the life of the universe and we can tell something about their age from their photographs. With our telescope we photograph two of them: Object A, 20 million light-years away and Object B, 200 million light years away. The light from which object took the longest time...

A spherical object with a radius rrr = 4.2×10−7 mm and mass m is in equilibrium at a distance ddd = 9.1×1012 mm from a star due to the cancellation of gravitational and radiation forces. Let MsMsM = 2.1×1032 kgkg be the mass of the star, and PsPsP = 5.9×1028 WW be the total average power radiated by it uniformly in all directions. You will also need the gravitational constant GGG = 6.7×10−11 Nm2/kg2Nm2/kg2 and the speed of light...

a. Consider a (spherical) pebble of radius 1 cm falling under the influence of gravity. Assume it experiences a quadratic drag force (i.e., proportional to the velocity squared). Assume the constant of proportionality for the drag force is the product of a constant κQ and a geometric factor is the square of the radius. Assume the density of stone is 2500 kg/m3 and that κQ = 0.87 kg/m3 . Estimate the terminal velocity of the pebble (vT ). b. Consider...
