On a dry winter day, you scuff your leather-soled shoes across a carpet and get a shock when you extend the tip of one finger to

ward a metal doorknob. In a dark room, you see a spark perhaps 5mm long. Make order-of-magnitude estimates of (a) your electric potential

Therefore electric potential is V = 15000V.

What is electric potential?

The amount of labor required to convey a unit of electric charge from a reference point to a given place in an electric field is known as the electric potential (also known as the electric field potential, potential drop, or the electrostatic potential).

length of sparks d = 5 mm = 5 x 10^-2 m

(a) It is possible to find average values for the skin's surface and the electric field in dry air from outside sources. Electric field and spark length can be used to determine electric potential.

V = E.d

V = 15000V

In designing circular rides for amusement parks, mechanical engineers must consider how small variations in certain parameters c
Bess [88]

Answer:

Part a)

dF = -\frac{mv^2}{r^2} dr

Part b)

dF = \frac{2mvdv}{r}

Part c)

dT = - \frac{2\pi r}{v^2} dv

Explanation:

Part a)

As we know that force on the passenger while moving in circle is given as

F = \frac{mv^2}{r}

now variation in force is given as

dF = -\frac{mv^2}{r^2} dr

here speed is constant

Part b)

Now if the variation in force is required such that r is constant then we will have

F = \frac{mv^2}{r}

so we have

dF = \frac{2mvdv}{r}

Part c)

As we know that time period of the circular motion is given as

T = \frac{2\pi r}{v}

so here if radius is constant then variation in time period is given as

dT = - \frac{2\pi r}{v^2} dv

How can inclined planes change the amount of force to move an object? A. Increase height of the inclined plane B. Increase dista
mash [69]

Answer:

Option ( B ) is correct .

Explanation:

To lift a heavy weight , inclined plane is used . Use of inclined plane , makes the task easier because instead of force mg , force mg sinθ is to be used which is less than mg . Here θ is inclination of inclined plane.

If h be the height by which weight is to be lifted

potential energy acquired by weight = mgh

work done by force mg sinθ = mgsinθ x d where d is displacement required .

mg sinθ x d = mgh  ( work done by force = potential energy stored in luggage )

d = h / sinθ

d will be more than h

Hence inclined plane increases the distance to be covered by force applied though it decreases the force itself.

Hence option ( B ) is correct .
