Answer:
The answers are in the explanation section below
Explanation:
1) The generalization that can be made from the exploration is that as we move away from the positive electrode, the potential energy gets lower. If we move away from the negative electrode, then the potential energy becomes higher.
2) The positive test charge will have the least potential energy when it gets to the negative electrode point.
3) To move one electron 1m in a direction along one of the equal potential lines, there is no energy needed. Zero work will be required for a charge to move on the equipotential line.
4) If lightning strikes a tree 20m away, it would be better to face the tree or have our back facing the tree. This is because the equipotential line will be present at the point where our body stands, this will protect from electric shock.
The pattern to be sketched is attached.

Answer:
a) t = 0.0185 s = 18.5 ms
b) T = 874.8 N
Explanation:
a)
First we find the seed of wave:
v = fλ
where,
v = speed of wave
f = frequency = 810 Hz
λ = wavelength = 0.4 m
Therefore,
v = (810 Hz)(0.4 m)
v = 324 m/s
Now,
v = L/t
where,
L = length of wire = 6 m
t = time taken by wave to travel length of wire
Therefore,
324 m/s = 6 m/t
t = (6 m)/(324 m/s)
<u>t = 0.0185 s = 18.5 ms</u>
<u></u>
b)
From the formula of fundamental frquency, we know that:
Fundamental Frequency = v/2L = (1/2L)(√T/μ)
v = √(T/μ)
where,
T = tension in string
μ = linear mass density of wire = m/L = 0.05 kg/6 m = 8.33 x 10⁻³ k gm⁻¹
Therefore,
324 m/s = √(T/8.33 x 10⁻³ k gm⁻¹)
(324 m/s)² = T/8.33 x 10⁻³ k gm⁻¹
<u>T = 874.8 N</u>
Answer:
Fnet - Fg
Explanation:
When an object is in an elevator, its weight varies with respect to the direction of movement of the elevator and the elevators acceleration.
The weight, W, of an object can be expressed as;
W = mg
where m is the object's mass, and g is the acceleration due gravity.
If the object is in an elevator that speed up, an apparent weight would be felt since both mass and elevator are moving against gravitational pull of the earth.
So that,
= mg + ma
where: mg is the weight of the object, and ma is the apparent weight.
Apparent weight (ma) = - mg
Answer:
The angle of incidence is greater than the angle of refraction
Explanation:
Refraction occurs when a light wave passes through the boundary between two mediums.
When a ray of light is refracted, it changes speed and direction, according to Snell's Law:
where
:
is the index of refraction of the 1st medium
is the index of refraction of the 2nd medium
is the angle of incidence (the angle between the incident ray and the normal to the boundary)
is the angle of refraction (the angle between the refracted ray and the normal to the boundary)
In this problem, we have a ray of light passing from air into clear plastic. We have:
(index of refraction of air)
approx. (index of refraction in clear plastic)
Snell's Law can be rewritten as
And since 
, we have
And so
Which means that
The angle of incidence is greater than the angle of refraction
