A bug zapper consists of two metal plates connected to a high-voltage power supply. The voltage between the plates is set to giv

e an electric field slightly less than 1×10⁶ V/m . When a bug flies between the two plates, it increases the field enough to initiate a spark that incinerates the bug.
If a bug zapper has a 7000 V power supply, what is the approximate separation between the plates?
(a) 7×10⁻² cm
(b) 0.7 cm
(c) 7 cm
(d) 70 cm

Answer:

(b) 0.7 cm

Explanation:

E = Electric field = 1\times 10^6\ V/m

V = Voltage = 7000 V

d = Seperation between the plates

Electric field is given by

E=\dfrac{V}{d}

\\\Rightarrow d=\dfrac{V}{E}\\\Rightarrow d=\dfrac{7000}{1\times 10^6}\\\Rightarrow d=0.007\ m=0.7\ cm

The approximate separation between the plates is 0.7 cm

Degger [83]

Yes, it's true.

But 2nd Newton Law always come to play when the horse is to move forward because obviously the forces interact antagonistically and mass has to be accounted for.

That's what I think. Hope it's right, all the best.

Does the earths magnetic field change with time?
ZanzabumX [31]

Answer:

As per the fossil fuel records, magnetic field reversal does not impact living beings. It will take almost a century for the poles to complete the shift. Meanwhile, the earth is left with almost zero magnetic field.

a man hits a golf ball (0.2kg) which accelerates at a rate of 20 m/s what amount of force acted on the ball
MAVERICK [17]

The ball only accelerates during the brief time that the club is in contact
with it. After it leaves the club face, it takes off at a constant speed.

If it accelerates at 20 m/s² during the hit, then

   Force = (mass) x (acceleration) = (0.2kg) x (20 m/s²) = <em>4 newtons</em> .

Calculate the acceleration of a car that begins at rest at a stop light and accelerates to a speed of 20m/s in a 10 sec time per
Dominik [7]
A = delta v over delta t delta v is calculated with final velocity less initial velocity then delta v is equals to 20 - 0 that is 20m/s and to calculate delta t is like delta v is final time less initial time as initial time always is 0 the delta t is equals to 10s then a = 20/10 then acceleration is 10m/s^2 (remember that is squared)
