A man inside an insulated metallic cage does not receive shock when the cage is highly charged because the whole charge reside on outer surface of the cage.

If the cage was a non-conductive cage, then the current cannot pass through the cage so it cannot affect the person in the cage.

For example- If you are seated in a car (metal body) and the car is hit with lightning, it is very unlikely that the person in the car would be hit with the lightning.

<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

= 20.436 seconds

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>

Speed = Distance × time

Therefore;

Time = Distance/speed

Distance = 7.50 m, speed = 0.367 m/s

Time = 7.50/0.367

<u>= 20.436 seconds </u>

The radius of Saturn is about 10 times the radius of Venus and the mass is about 100 times that of Venus. How much larger is the

lora16 [44]

let the mass of Venus is M then mass of Saturn is 100 M

similarly if the radius of Venus is R then the radius of Saturn is 10 R

now the force of gravity on a man of mass "m" at the surface of Venus is given by

$F_1 = \frac{GMm}{R^2}$
