Sound waves have relatively long wavelengths. We can hear people around the corner before we can see them. Which wave behavior d

I'd say diffraction since sound waves can bend around objects like corners. Let's say you're in the hallway and you can hear sound coming from a door. The sound waves diffract around the door and spread out into the hallway, making it possible for you to hear.  
Also, you can hear it before you see it because light waves are shorter than sound waves and hardly diffract around doors.

Which energy output objects work with the turbine
viktelen [127]

Answer:

The energy output object that works with the turbine is the alternator (generator)

Explanation:

In energy generation the turbine receives input energy from high pressured steam, high energy water etc. Which impinges and turn the blades of the turbine, this turbine is connected by means of a shaft to the alternator that converts the rotational motion of the shaft to electrical energy through Electro magnetic induction principles and also outputs the energy for consumption.

The electric field at the surface of a charged, solid, copper sphere with radius 0.220 mm is 4200 N/CN/C, directed toward the ce
NISA [10]

Answer:

The potential at the center of the sphere is -924 V

Explanation:

Given;

radius of the sphere, R = 0.22 m

electric field at the surface of the sphere, E = 4200 N/C

Since the electric field is directed towards the center of the sphere, the charge is negative.

The Potential is the same at every point in the sphere, and it is given as;

V = \frac{1}{4 \pi \epsilon_o} \frac{q}{R} -------equation (1)

The electric field on the sphere is also given as;

E = \frac{1}{4 \pi \epsilon _o} \frac{|q|}{R^2}

|q |=  4 \pi \epsilon _o} R^2E

Substitute in the value of q in equation (1)

V = \frac{1}{4 \pi \epsilon_o} \frac{-(4 \pi \epsilon _o R^2E)}{R} \ \ \ \ q \ is \ negative\ because \ E \ is\ directed  \ toward \ the \ center\\\\V = -RE\\\\V = -(0.22* 4200)\\\\V = -924 \ V

Therefore, the potential at the center of the sphere is -924 V
