yes, definitely.

i thought that the field must be uniform to be able to easily use gauss's law. i'm not seeing why is this true?

the unsettling thing is, what about the kinetic energy?

This question is a bit strange, and I would appreciate help: A solid uncharged conducting sphere has radius 3a and contains a hollowed spherical region of radius 2a. A point charge +Q is placed at a position a distance a from the common center of the spheres. What is the magnitude of the...

Thanks! I actually figured it out later with the adiabatic equation (PV^gamma is constant) but your way is much more elegant.

anyone?

Hi, I would appreciate any help with this: A monatomic ideal gas is used as the working substance for the Carnot cycle. Processes A => B and C => D are isothermal, while processes B => C and D => A are adiabatic. During process A => B, there are 400 J of work done by the gas on the...
