Why do most objects tend to contain nearly equal numbers of positive and negative charges?

Physics

KengaRu [80]3 years ago
4 0

Explanation:

Most objects tend to contains nearly equal numbers of negative and positive charges as it is most stable state. In this case, the object does not want to lose or gain electrons in order to get stable.

The repulsive or attractive electrical forces tend to cancel each other.

There are an equal number of positive and negative charges which make the object electrically neutral.

If the object has more negative charge than the positive charge then it makes the object most unstable or vice versa.

<span>Most objects tend to contain the same numbers of positive and negative charge because this is the most stable situation. In fact, if an object has an excess of positive charge, it tends to attract an equal number of negative charges to balance this effect and restore neutrality: the attracted negative charges combine with the excess of positive charges, leaving the object electrically neutral.</span>

A metal wire is in thermal contact with two heat reservoirs at both of its ends. Reservoir 1 is at a temperature of 781 K, and r
andreev551 [17]

Answer:2.517 J/K

Explanation:

Given

Reservoir 1 Temperature T_1=781 K

Reservoir 2 Temperature T_2=335 K

Let Q is the amount of heat Flows i.e. Q=1477 J

thus change in Entropy is given by \frac{\sum Q}{T}

\Delta S=\frac{\sum Q}{T}=-\frac{Q}{T_1}+\frac{Q}{T_2}

\Delta S=\frac{\sum Q}{T}=-\frac{1477}{781}+\frac{1477}{335}

\Delta S=\frac{\sum Q}{T}=-1.891+4.4089

\Delta S=\frac{\sum Q}{T}=2.517 J/K

Compare the physical sciences to the life sciences.
Elden [556K]

1.Life science involves fields of discipline catering to living organisms such as we humans while physical science caters to non-living organisms.

2.Life science has more fields of discipline than physical science.

3.Physical science relies on laws and theories to explain concepts while life science relies on biological explanations and can also rely on theories.

If you want to make a strong battery, should you pair two metals with high electron affinities, low electron affinities, or a mi
zalisa [80]

A mix

Explanation:

A battery is an electrochemical cell that converts chemical energy into electrical energy. The chemical reactions in a battery ensures that current is produced.

  • A battery is made up of two electrodes which are the cathode and anode.
  • The cathode is the positive electrode and the anode is the negative one.
  • These electrodes are made up of metals.
  • Electrons moves from the anode to the cathode and current flows from cathode to anode.
  • At the anode oxidation occurs because electrons are produced here.
  • It needs to have low electron affinity.
  • At the cathode where reduction occurs, the electron affinity must be high.
  • This is the driving force for the production of electricity in electrochemical cells.

Natalija [7]

Complete question:

A solenoid that is 98.6 cm long has a cross-sectional area of 24.3 cm2. There are 1310 turns of a wire carrying a current of 6.75 A. (a) Calculate the energy density of the magnetic field inside the solenoid. (b) Find the total energy stored in the magnetic field there (neglect end effects).

Answer:

(a) the energy density of the magnetic field inside the solenoid is 50.53 J/m³

(b) the total energy stored in the magnetic field is 0.121 J

Explanation:

Given;

length of the solenoid, L = 98.6 cm = 0.986 m

cross-sectional area of the solenoid, A = 24.3 cm² = 24.3 x 10⁻⁴ m²

number of turns of the solenoid, N = 1310 turns

The magnitude of the magnetic field inside the solenoid is given by;

B = μ₀nI

B = μ₀(N/L)I

Where;

μ₀ is permeability of free space, = 4π x 10⁻⁷ m/A

B = \frac{4\pi*10^{-7}*1310*6.75}{0.986} \\\\B = 0.01127 \ T

(a) Calculate the energy density of the magnetic field inside the solenoid

u = \frac{B^2}{2 \mu_o}\\\\u = \frac{(0.01127)^2}{2*4\pi *10^{-7}} \\\\u = 50.53 \ J/m^3

(b) Find the total energy stored in the magnetic field

U = uV

U = u (AL)

U = 50.53 (24.3 x 10⁻⁴  x 0.986)

U = 0.121 J
