When a new path of lesser resistance is made for an existing circuit a(n) short circuit occurs.

<h3>What is short circuit?</h3>

An electrical circuit short circuit is when two nodes that are supposed to be connected at different voltages make an improper connection. This leads to an electric current that can damage circuits, cause overheating, fire, or explosions, and is only constrained by the network's remaining nodes' equivalent Thevenin resistance. While short circuits are typically the result of a failure, they can occasionally be brought on purpose, such as when voltage-sensing crowbar circuit protectors are being installed.

An electrical connection that requires two nodes to have the same voltage is known as a short circuit in circuit analysis. Since there is no resistance and hence no voltage drop across the link in a "perfect" short circuit, there is no short circuit.

Two large parallel conducting plates carrying opposite charges of equal magnitude are separated by 2.20 cm. Part A If the surfac
alukav5142 [94]

Answer:

5308.34 N/C

Explanation:

Given:

Surface density of each plate (σ) = 47.0 nC/m² = 47\times 10^{-9}\ C/m^2

Separation between the plates (d) = 2.20 cm

We know, from Gauss law for a thin sheet of plate that, the electric field at a point near the sheet of surface density 'σ' is given as:

E=\dfrac{\sigma}{2\epsilon_0}

Now, as the plates are oppositely charged, so the electric field in the region between the plates will be in same direction and thus their magnitudes gets added up. Therefore,

E_{between}=E+E=2E=\frac{2\sigma}{2\epsilon_0}=\frac{\sigma}{\epsilon_0}

Now, plug in  47\times 10^{-9}\ C/m^2 for 'σ' and 8.85\times 10^{-12}\ F/m for \epsilon_0 and solve for the electric field. This gives,

E_{between}=\frac{47\times 10^{-9}\ C/m^2}{8.854\times 10^{-12}\ F/m}\\\\E_{between}= 5308.34\ N/C

Therefore, the electric field between the plates has a magnitude of 5308.34 N/C

A kayaker moves 26 meters southward, then 18 meters
Svetllana [295]

Total distance: 56 meters. Magnitude and direction of displacement: 20 meters South.

Explanation:

The term distance refers to space between one point and other, or the total space a body or object covered while moving. In the case presented, this can be calculated by adding the partial distances given. This means the total distance is  56 meters as 26 meters + 18 meters + 12 meters = 56 meters.

On the other hand, displacement considers the distance from the initial position to the final position, and the direction of movement. This means partial distances should not be added but each movement should be considered according to the direction. The process is shown below:

-The first movement was 26 meters southward; this means by the end of this movement the distance between the initial position was 26 meters south.

- The second movement was 18 northward; this means the kayaker moved 18 meters towards the position. This changes the displacement to 8 meters South as 26 meters south - 18 meters north = 8 meters to the South.

-The last movement was 12 meters sound; this means the kayaker increased the distance from the original position 8 meters to the South + 12 meters to the South = 20 meters South (total displacement.)
