Thomas Fitterling, in Thelonious Monk: His Life and Music(1997), points out that Monk's middle name, "Sphere," derives from his maternal grandmother, Sphere Batts. Not a hipster's cool affectation, "Sphere" was part of Monk's given name according to family documents.
His ring says: 玉 (Sphere)
Thelonious Monk's birth name is Monk, Thelonious Sphere.
If this is one of those math joke sheets, the answer is: A "Sphere" You know, like a spear...not very funny is it?
The Campbell-Stokes recorder (sometimes called a Stokes sphere) is a kind of sunshine recorder. It was invented by John Francis Campbell in 1853 and modified in 1879 by Sir George Gabriel Stokes. The original design by Campbell consisted of a glass sphere set into a wooden bowl with the sun burning a trace on the bowl. Stokes's refinement was to make the housing out of metal and to have a card holder set behind the sphere. The unit is designed to record the hours of bright sunshine which will burn a hole through the card. sunshine recorder
If the charge is evenly distributed over the sphere ... as it would be if the sphere is a conducting material ... then the electric field at the center of the sphere is zero. If the sphere is not a conductor and the charge hasn't been applied to it symmetrically, then the magnitude and direction of the electric field at the center depend on every little detail of exactly how it's distributed on the sphere.
A sphere of radius R surround a point charge Q, located at its center afind the electric flux ?
No, the charge held by a solid metal sphere and a hollow sphere of the same diameter would be the same. In both cases, the charge resides on the outer surface of the sphere due to the principle of electrostatic equilibrium.
A metal sphere of radius 1 centimeter will not hold a charge of 1 coulomb. The electric field generated from the metal sphere of radiusÊat 1 centimeter will break down and neutralize any charges.
The charge on the conductive sphere spreads out uniformly over the surface of the sphere.
in spherical capacitor two concentric sphere are taken of different radii. one is charged uniformly and placed inside other of greater radii. due to electric induction negative charge come at inner part of second sphere and positive charge come at outer sphere. to vanish this charge we earthed it. only negative charge remains on inner surface which decrease potential of first charged sphere and increase capacity.
It is because due to the conducting nature of sphere all the charge goes to the surface of the sphere and the charge inside gets zero.
The Van de Graff generator was named after Van de Graff, who invented it. A Van de Graff generator is a device used to store an enormous amount of electric charge (either positive or negative) on a metallic sphere so that a very strong electric field can be produced. This strong electric field can be used to accelerate charged particles like protons, alpha particles etc. In the Van de Graff generator, charges from an electric battery are separated and stored on a metallic sphere which is mounted on an insulating pillar.
From Gauss's Law, Electric Field inside is 0, and it's electric flux is equal to Qenclosed/Eo, where Eo is the electric vacuum permittivity constant. Also, outside of the sphere, it could be treated as a point charge, where the point lies at the center of the shell and has a charge equal to the total charge of the shell.
An electric charge cannot be established or maintained inside a conductive container. This is the basis of the Faraday Cage, used to isolate a working space from electric fields.
Assuming that the charhe 'q' is uniformly distributed ina sperical volume of radius Discuss the variation of Electric intensity
Zero. By Gauss' or Coulomb's law - eclectic field inside a conductor or a charged empty shell is always zero. If there were a field inside a sphere it would never be able to reach equilibrium with itself.
