The power lines are at a high potential relative to the ground, so there is an electric field between the power lines and the gr

ound. To maximize the potential difference between one end of the fluorescent tube and the other, how should the tube be held? Select the best answer from the choices provided. A. The tube should be held horizontally, parallel to the ground. B.The potential difference between the ends of the tube does not depend on the tube's orientation. C.The tube should be held vertically, perpendicular to the ground.

Answer:C.The tube should be held vertically, perpendicular to the ground.

Explanation: Power lines are mainly overhead power installation that transfer electric energy from one place to another. Electric power lines contains both Magnetic field and Electric field.

Potential difference is the change in the amount of energy carried by an electric circuit from one point to another. TO MAXIMIZE THE POTENTIAL DIFFERENCE BETWEEN ONE END OF THE TUBE AND ANOTHER? THE TUBE SHOULD BE HELD VERTICALLY,PERPENDICULAR TO THE GROUND.

A person hears a siren as a fire truck approaches and passes by. The frequency varies from 480Hz on approach to 400Hz going away
alekssr [168]

Answer:

31.2 m/s

Explanation:

f_{app} = Frequency of approach = 480 Hz

f_{aw} = Frequency of going away = 400 Hz

V = Speed of sound in air = 343 m/s

v = Speed of truck

Frequency of approach is given as

f_{app} = \frac{Vf}{V - v}                           eq-1

Frequency of moving awayy is given as

f_{aw} = \frac{Vf}{V + v}                          eq-2

Dividing eq-1 by eq-2

\frac{f_{app}}{f_{aw}} = \frac{V + v}{V - v}

\frac{480}{400} = \frac{343 + v}{343 - v}

v = 31.2 m/s

It may seem strange that the selected velocity does not depend on either the mass or the charge of the particle. (For example, w
Charra [1.4K]

Answer:

b) q large and m small

Explanation:

q is large and m is small

We'll express it as :

q > m

As we know the formula:

F = Eq

And we also know that :

F = Bqv

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

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

or Eq = \frac{mv^{2} }{r}

Assume that you want a velocity selector that will allow particles of velocity v⃗  to pass straight through without deflection while also providing the best possible velocity resolution. You set the electric and magnetic fields to select the velocity v⃗ . To obtain the best possible velocity resolution (the narrowest distribution of velocities of the transmitted particles) you would want to use particles with q large and m small.

If you double the distance between you and the center of Earth, what happens to the strength of the gravitational field you expe
Lostsunrise [7]

Answer:

The strength of gravity decreases.

An example of that would be if you were in space; you float around because there's no gravity.

Lelu [443]

If you do this on Earth, then the acceleration of the falling object is 9.8 m/s^2 ... NO MATTER what it's mass is.

If its mass is 10 kg, then the force pulling it down is 98.1 Newtons. Most people call that the object's "weight".

polet [3.4K]

Answer:

E = 24000 N/C = 24 KN/C

Explanation:

The electric field experienced by a test charge is given by the following formula:

E = \frac{F}{q}\\\\

where,

E = Electric Field = ?

F = Force of attraction = 3 x 10⁻⁶ N

q = Charge on piece of lint = 1.25 x 10⁻¹⁰ C

Therefore, using these values in the equation, we get:

E = \frac{3\ x\ 10^{-6}\ N}{1.25\ x\ ^{-10}\ C}\\\\

<u>E = 24000 N/C = 24 KN/C</u>
