What happens if : . The test charge is not tiny.

1 answer:

3 0

The magnitude of the test charge must be small enough so that it does not disturb the issuance of the charges whose electric field we wish to measure otherwise the metric field will be different from the actual field.

<h3>How does test charge affect electric field?</h3>

As the quantity of authority on the test charge (q) is increased, the force exerted on it is improved by the same factor. Thus, the ratio of force per charge (F / q) stays the same.

Adjusting the amount of charge on the test charge will not change the electric field force.

<h3>What is a test charge used for?</h3>

The charge that is used to measure the electric field strength is directed to as a test charge since it is used to test the field strength. The test charge has a portion of charge denoted by the symbol q.

Of the 5000 species of mammals, 250 species are carnivorous. What is the ratio of carnivorous to mammals?

Mekhanik [1.2K]

Answer: The ratio of carnivorous species to all mammal species is 1:20

Explanation:

250:5000 = 250/250 = 1

250:5000 = 5000/250 = 20

Answer = 1:20

A spaceship orbiting earth flies to the moon. How is the gravitational force pulling on the spaceship related to the distance th

____ [38]

The correct answer is "As the distance from the earth increases, the gravitational pull on the spaceship would decrease."

In fact, the gravitational force (attractive) exerted by the Earth on the spaceship is given by
$F=G \frac{Mm}{d^2}$
where G is the gravitational constant, M the Earth's mass, m the mass of the spaceship and d the distance of the spaceship from the Earth. As we can see from the formula, as the distance d between the spaceship and the Earth increases, the gravitational force F decreases, so answer D) is the correct one.

Verizon [17]

Answer:

Allison is probably looking at the asteroid.

Explanation:

Asteroids are the giant gas balls of inner solar system that are present in the space.
Asteroids orbits around the sun in very irregular ans strange path unlike the other planets.
This is also the reason why it's called as the minor planets.
It could have been comet but if it had been a comets he must have seen the tail but asteroids do not have any tail like structure.

Light waves have some similarities with water and sound waves, but they are not exactly the same. Describe all the differences y

makkiz [27]

<u>Answer:</u>

<h2>All the waves are pertubations that propagate (transport) energy.</h2><h2></h2>

Nevertheless, they have some differences:

1. Light waves are<u> electromagnetic waves</u>, while sound and water waves are <u>mechanical waves</u>, this is the first and principal difference.

2. Electromagnetic waves can<u> propagate in vacuum</u> (they do not need a medium or material), but mechanical waves obligatory need a material to propagate

3. Light waves are always <u>transversal waves</u>, this means <u>the oscillatory movement is in a direction that is perpendicular to the propagation</u>; but mechanical waves may be both: <u>longitudinal waves</u> (the oscillation occurs in the same direction as the propagation) or transversal waves.

4. Electromagnetic waves propagates at a <u>constant velocity</u> (Light velocity) while the velocity of mechanical waves will depend on the type of wave and the <u>density</u> of the medium or material.

5. <u>Mechanical waves</u> are characterized by the regular variation of a single magnitude, while <u>electromagnetic waves</u> are characterized by the variation of two magnitudes: the electric field and the magnetic field

6. <u>Water waves</u> are 2-dimensional waves, while the <u>light and the sound</u> are tridimensional spherical waves

7. Light waves <u>transports energy in the form of </u><u>radiation</u>, while mechanical waves t<u>ransport energy with </u><u>material</u>
