Surface tension can change with the change in a medium that is just above the layer of the liquid's surface.

Explanation:

Pouring any oil or oily compounds (such as kerosene) on the free surface of the water will reduce the surface tension.

in the atmosphere directly affects the surface tension of the liquid.

If we increase the temperature of the water, then there is a high possibility of the surface tension of the water getting reduced, due to the fact that the net force of attraction is decreased.

Mixing surfactants or emulsifiers into the water will decrease the surface tension.

If the water is subjected to electrification, then the surface tension will be reduced.

A hollow conducting spherical shell has radii of 0.80 m and 1.20 m, The radial component of the electric field at a point that i

mars1129 [50]

Complete Question

The complete question is shown on the first uploaded image

Answer:

The electric field at that point is $E = 7500 \ N/C$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The radius of the inner circle is $r_i = 0.80 \ m$

The radius of the outer circle is $r_o = 1.20 \ m$

The charge on the spherical shell $q_n = -500nC = -500*10^{-9} \ C$

The magnitude of the point charge at the center is $q_c = + 300 nC = + 300 * 10^{-9} \ C$

The position we are considering is x = 0.60 m from the center

Generally the electric field at the distance x = 0.60 m from the center is mathematically represented as

$E = \frac{k * q_c }{x^2}$

substituting values

$E = \frac{k * q_c }{x^2}$

where k is the coulomb constant with value $k = 9*10^{9} \ kg\cdot m^3\cdot s^{-4} \cdot A^{-2}.$

substituting values

$E = \frac{9*10^9 * 300 *10^{-9}}{0.6^2}$

$E = 7500 \ N/C$

Why was Democritus considered a philosopher and not a scientist?

Alika [10]

Answer:

Democritus had no scientific instruments to extend the reach of his senses, so all of his experiments were just 'mind experiments', but because Democritus was a philosopher, he thought more into depth about why we humans are alive which led to the atomic theory.

When sugar is poured from the box into the sugar bowl, the rubbing of sugar grains creates a static electric charge that repels

Afina-wow [57]

Answer:

2.6×10⁻³ N

Explanation:

From coulomb's law,

F = kq'q/r²................ Equation 1

Where F = Repulsive force, q' = charge on the first sugar grain, q = charge on the second sugar grain, r = distance of separation between the sugar grain, k = proportionality constant.

From the question,

since q' = q

Then,

F = kq²/r²..................... Equation 2

Given: q = 1.79×10⁻¹¹ C, r = 3.45×10⁻⁵ m,

Constant: k = 9×10⁹ Nm²/kg².

Substitute into equation 2

F = 9×10⁹(1.79×10⁻¹¹)²/(3.45×10⁻⁵ )²

F = 9×10⁹(3.2041×10⁻²²)/(11.9025×10⁻¹⁰)

F = (28.8369×10⁻¹³)/(11.9025×10⁻¹⁰)

F = 2.6×10⁻³ N.
