Pick an option to check your answer.
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(D) \( 1:3^{2/3} \)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
Using volume conservation
\( 3(\frac{4}{3}\pi r^{3})=(\frac{4}{3}\pi R^{3}) \)
\( R=3^{1/3}r \)
\( \frac{V_{i}}{V_{f}}=\frac{\frac{kq}{r}}{\frac{k3q}{R}}=\frac{R}{3r}=\frac{3^{1/3}r}{3r}=\frac{1}{3^{2/3}} \)
\( 3(\frac{4}{3}\pi r^{3})=(\frac{4}{3}\pi R^{3}) \)
\( R=3^{1/3}r \)
\( \frac{V_{i}}{V_{f}}=\frac{\frac{kq}{r}}{\frac{k3q}{R}}=\frac{R}{3r}=\frac{3^{1/3}r}{3r}=\frac{1}{3^{2/3}} \)
