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

Two identical twins hold on to a rope, one at each end, on a smooth, frictionless ice surface. They skate in a circle about the
777dan777 [17]

Answer:

Part a)

L = 2683.2 kg m^2/s

Part b)

v' = 8.60 m/s

Part c)

W = 4326.7 J

Explanation:

Part a)

As we know that there is no external torque on the system of two twins

so here we will use

L = mv r + mvr

L = 2(78 \times 4.30 \times 4)

L = 2683.2 kg m^2/s

Part b)

Since angular momentum is conserved here as there is no external torque

so we will have

2(m v r) = 2( m v' \frac{r}{2})

v' = 2v

v' = 8.60 m/s

Part c)

Work done by both of them = change in kinetic energy

so we have

W = 2(\frac{1}{2}mv'^2 - \frac{1}{2}mv^2)

W = m(v'^2 - v^2)

W = 78(8.60^2 - 4.3^2)

W = 4326.7 J

A low C (f=65Hz) is sounded on a piano. If the length of the piano wire is 2.0 m and
WITCHER [35]

Answer:

T = 676 N

Explanation:

Given that: f = 65 Hz, L = 2.0 m, and ρ = 5.0 g/m^{2} = 0.005 kg

A stationary wave that is set up in the string has a frequency of;

f = \frac{1}{2L}\sqrt{\frac{T}{M} }

⇒      T = 4L^{2}f^{2}M

Where: t is the tension in the wire, L is the length of the wire, f is the frequency of the waves produced by the wire and M is the mass per unit length of the wire.

But M = L × ρ = (2 × 0.005) = 0.01 kg/m

T = 4 × 2^{2} ×65^{2} × 0.01

   = 4 × 4 ×4225 × 0.01

   = 676 N

Tension of the wire is 676 N.
