Under electrostatic conditions, the electric field just outside the surface of any charged conductor:
lesantik [10]

Answer:

D. is always perpendicular to the surface of the conductor

Explanation:

1) Answer is (D) option. Electric field just outside surface of charged conductor is normal to conductor at that point.

It can be explained on the basis of the fact that, Electric field inside conductor under static condition is zero. As a result potential difference between any two points with in conductor is zero. So whole of conductor is equipotential body.

Equipotential surface and Electric field lines always cut at 90 degrees to each other. Conductor being equipotential body, Electric field lines starting or terminating at conductor must be normal to surface. Hence electric field just outside conductor is perpendicular or normal to surface.

Why don't we feel pressure exerted by atmosphere?
ozzi
Crushing pressure. Human bodies are used to air pressure. The air pressure in our lungs, ears and stomachs is the same as the air pressure outside of our bodies, which ensures that we don't get crushed. Our bodies are also flexible enough to cope when the internal and external pressures aren't exactly the same.

A balky cow is leaving the barn as you try harder and harder to push her back in. In coordinates with the origin at the barn doo
Tresset [83]

Answer:

The work done is -209.42 J.

Explanation:

F(x) = (- 20 - 3 x ) N

x = 0 to x = 6.9 m

Here, the force is variable in nature, so the work done by the variable force is given by

W =\int F dx\\\\W =\int_{0}^{6.9}(-20- 3x dx )\\\\W= \left [ - 20 x - 1.5 x^2 \right ]_{0}^{6.9}\\\\W = - 20 (6.9 - 0) - 1.5(6.9\times 6.9 - 0)\\\\W =- 138 - 71.42\\\\W = - 209.42  J

A constant force of 560 n was applied to a rock. If 2700j of energy was used to move the rock, how far did the rock move
larisa [96]

Answer:

Work done = Force X Distance

Work done/Force = Distance

2700/560 = Distance

Distance = 4.8 meters
