Benjamin Franklin has convinced his hapless assistant Mike Piepan to participate in an experiment on electiricty. Ben has set up

lightning rod, the rod of which extends into his laboratory. MIke is suspended from the ceiling by an insulating rope. To one side of Mike is the end of end of the lightning rod, on the other side is a metal rod that is "grounded" (i.e. conducts electricity into the Earth, especially a "charge dump"). A bolt of lightning strikes the rod, giving it an enormous quantity of excess negative charge. Assuming tht no charge leaps through the air in the lab, explain in as much details as possible, what you think will happen to poor Mr. Piepan?

Answer:

Mike will receive an electric shock

Explanation:

Human body is a conductor of electricity. When lightning strikes rod and give it negative charge, the rod will dissipate its charge as soon as it comes in contact with earth via conduting material. Mike will receive a severe electric shock as negatice charge pass through his body to other rod and to the ground.His body will feel numb. He may also get unconscious.

Three equal point charges, each with charge 1.05 μCμC , are placed at the vertices of an equilateral triangle whose sides are of
kirza4 [7]

Answer:

The value is U  = 0.06 \  J

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The value of charge on each three point charge is

q_1 = q_2 = q_3 =q=  1.05 \mu C  =  1.05 *10^{-6} \  C

The length of the sides of the equilateral triangle is r  =  0.500 \

Generally the total potential energy is mathematically represented as

U  = k *  [ \frac{q_1 *  q_2}{r}  +  \frac{q_2 *  q_3}{r}   + \frac{q_3 *  q_1}{r} ]

=> U  = k * 3 * \frac{q^2}{r}

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

=>    U  = 9*10^9 * 3 * \frac{(1.05 *10^{-6})^2}{0.5 }

U  = 0.06 \  J

The situation given above can be answered through the concept of the First Law of thermodynamics which states that the change in internal energy is equal to the difference between the work done and the heat added to the system. The work done by the object is negative and the heat added is positive.
             change in internal energy = -500J + 1400 J = 900 J
