True or false conceptual physics 2 questions from chapter 25.

Physics

1 answer:

Arlecino [84]3 years ago

3 0

Answer:

Explanation:

1) TRUE; potential difference can be calculated using path integral. Since the electric field is a conservative, the potential difference can be calculated using any path.

2) TRUE; since potential due to a charge is inversely dependent on distance, at infinity the potential will be almost zero.

3) TRUE, W = q.VBA.

4) FALSE; eV is a unit for work (or) energy.

5) TRUE; since the electric force is conservative force. There will be no loss in energy, the decreased potential energy will be coverted to kinetic energy.

6) FALSE; in the direction of electric field the potential decreases.

7) FALSE; equipotential surface is perpendicular to the electric field lines.

8) FALSE; electrostatic potential is scalar quantity. It depends only on the charge and distance from it.

9) FALSE; Inside a conductor the electric field is zero but the electric potential is constant at the value that is at the surface of the conductor.

10) TRUE; as long as the field is being measured outiside the body the bodies act as point charges. So electric fields due to all types of bodies charged identically will be equal.

The terminals of a 0.70 Vwatch battery are connected by a 80.0-m-long gold wire with a diameter of 0.200 mm What is the current

Komok [63]

Answer:

$I=0.047A$

Explanation:

Let's use Ohm's law:

$V=IR$

$I=\frac{V}{R}$ (1)

Where:

$V=Voltage\\I=Current\\R=Electrical\hspace{2 mm}Resistance$

We know the value of the voltage V, so we need to find the value of R in order to find I. Fortunately there is a relation between the resistivity of a conductor and its electrical resistance given by:

$R=\rho*\frac{l}{A}$ (2)

Where:

$R=Electrical\hspace{2 mm}Resistance\\l=Length\hspace{2 mm}of\hspace{2 mm}the\hspace{2 mm}conductor=80m\\A=Cross\hspace{2 mm}sectional\hspace{2 mm}area\hspace{2 mm}of\hspace{2 mm}the\hspace{2 mm}conductor=1.256637061*10^{-7} \\\rho=Electrical\hspace{2 mm}resistivity\hspace{2 mm}of\hspace{2 mm}the\hspace{2 mm}material=2.35*10^{-8}$

Keep in mind that the electrical resistivity of the gold is a known constant which is $\rho_g_o_l_d=2.35*10^{-8}$ and the cross sectional area of the conductor is calculated as:

$A=\pi *(r^{2})=\pi *(0.0002m)^{2} =1.256637061*10^{-7} m^{2}$

Because we have a wire in this case, so we assume a cylindrical geometry.

Now replacing our data in (2)

$R=(2.35*10^{-8})*\frac{80}{1.256637061*10^{-7} } =14.96056465\Omega$

Finally, we know R and V, so replacing these values in (1) we will be able to find the current:

$I=\frac{0.7}{14.96056465}\approx0.047A$

A 20 kg wagon is rolling to the right across a floor. A person attempts to catch and stop the crate and applies a force of 70 N,

Serggg [28]

Answer:

1.736m/s²

Explanation:

According to Newton's second law;

$\sum F_x = ma_x\\$

$Fm - Ff = ma_x\\$ where;

Fm is the moving force = 70.0N

Ff is the frictional force acting on the body

$Ff = \mu R\\Ff = \mu mg\\$

$\mu$ is the coefficient of friction

m is the mass of the object

g is the acceleration due to gravity

a is the acceleration/deceleration

The equation becomes;

$Fm - Ff = ma_x\\Fm - \mu mg = ma\\$

Substitute the given parameters

$Fm - \mu mg = ma\\70 - 0.18(20)(9.8) = 20a\\70-35.28 = 20a\\34.72 = 20a\\a = \frac{34.72}{20}\\a = 1.736m/s^2\\$

Hence the deceleration rate of the wagon as it is caught is 1.736m/s²

Resonance in air column is used in which of these musical instruments

zvonat [6]

Answer: The correct answer is "trumpet".

Explanation:

Resonance occurs when the applied frequency on the object is equal to the natural frequency of the object.

Wind instruments use resonance in the air column to amplify the sound. It makes the sound louder. Sound is produced by using lips or vibrating reeds or buzzing sound into the mouthpiece.

Therefore, resonance in air column is used in trumpet musical instruments.

What does it mean that are bodies are in osmotic equilibrium but chemical and electrical disequilibrium? Why? What molecules are

Whitepunk [10]

Explanation:

The point is that water is moving smoothly but that the solutes are not.Even though the containers are chemically different (chemical disequilibrium), once all the solutes in one container are contrasted to all the solutes in another container, both have the same total solutes concentrations (this means that they are in osmotic balance).
