Metal cutters have long handles.Give Reason.

What is the acceleration of this object? The object's mass is 60 kg.

Licemer1 [7]

First determine the net force. Let's say the downwards force is negative and the upwards force is positive.
Since the forces act in opposite directions, the net force would be:
400N - 600N = -200N

Since I said negative is downwards, this translates to the net force being 200N downwards.

Force = mass*acceleration
200N = 60kg * acceleration
acceleration = 3.33 m/s^2

The conductor is initially electrically neutral, and then a charge q is placed at the center of the hollow space. Suppose the co

Anvisha [2.4K]

The total charge on the interior of the conductor is zero.

The total charge on the exterior of the conductor is 8q.

<h3>Total charge on the interior</h3>

Due to large number of electrons available for conduction in a conductor, most of the electrons moves to surface leaving zero net charge inside the conductor.

Thus, the total charge on the interior of the conductor is zero.

<h3>Total charge on the exterior</h3>

The total charge on the exterior of the conductor is calculated as follows;

Q = q + 7q = 8q

Thus, the total charge on the exterior of the conductor is 8q.

A spring on a horizontal surface can be stretched and held 0.2 m from its equilibrium position with a force of 16 N. a. How much

nekit [7.7K]

Answer:

a $W_{3.5} = 490 \ J$

b $W_{2.5} = 250 \ J$

Explanation:

Generally the force constant is mathematically represented as

$k = \frac{F}{x}$

substituting values given in the question

=> $k = \frac{16}{0.2}$

=> $k = 80 \ N /m$

Generally the workdone in stretching the spring 3.5 m is mathematically represented as

$W_{3.5} = \frac{1}{2} * k * (3.5)^2$

=> $W_{3.5} = \frac{1}{2} * 80 * (3.5)^2$

=> $W_{3.5} = 490 \ J$

Generally the workdone in compressing the spring 2.5 m is mathematically represented as

$W_{2.5} = \frac{1}{2} * k * (2.5)^2$

=> $W_{2.5} = \frac{1}{2} * 80 * (2.5)^2$

=> $W_{2.5} = 250 \ J$

Why isn’t a bird sitting on a high-voltage power line electrocuted? Contrast this with the situation in which a large bird hits

Grace [21]

Answer:

The reason the bird is not electrocuted is due to some facts about circuit:

1. Completeness of circuit- This circuit needs to be

complete in order for current to flow. The bird standing on only one wire has not completed the circuit.

2. A potential difference: Another factor deciding

the direction of flow of current is (electric)

potential. Current always flows from a higher

potential to a lower potential. In other words it

can be said that electrons flow from lower

potential to higher one. (the direction of electric

current is opposite to that of the electrons). So

we need the potential difference for current to

flow. The bird standing on only one wire has no potential difference.

3. Path of least Resistance- Factor that decides

the path a current will flow in case of parallel

paths is the (electric) resistance offered by the

path. Current will always flow in the path that

offers least resistance. The leg of a bird has high resistance.

Explanation:

It has no potential difference as both the legs of bird are touching the same wire at same constant potential. ... If the bird would touch the ground while sitting on the wire or flap its wings and touch another electric wire with a different voltage, then it would get shocked and likely die by electrocution.

while in the other hand, the Bird that touches two wires with it wings at the same time will get electrocuted because it has completed a circuit and the its feathers created a potential difference .
