Answer:

D) Grounding

Explanation:

The potential difference between cloud and ground leads to ionization of the atmosphere and resulting conduction through the air often to ground (although it can be between clouds at different potentials. I would say grounding, like the spark when you touch a hot battery terminal to ground on a car.

lukranit [14]

Answer: option 1 : the electric potential will decrease with an increase in y

Explanation: The electric potential (V) is related to distance (in this case y) by the formulae below

V = kq/y

Where k = 1/4πε0

Where V = electric potential,

k = electric constant = 9×10^9,

y = distance of potential relative to a reference point, ε0 = permittivity of free space

q = magnitude of electronic charge = 1.609×10^-19 c

From the formulae, we can see that q and k are constants, only potential (V) and distance (y) are variables.

We have that

V = k/y

We see the potential(V) is inversely proportional to distance (y).

This implies that an increase in distance results to a decreasing potential and a decrease in distance results to an increase in potential.

This fact makes option 1 the correct answer

Why is Earth’s North Pole a geographic north pole but a south seeking pole magnetically?
natima [27]

Answer:It is actually the South Magnetic pole

Explanation:The magnetic pole near earth's geographic north pole is actually the south magnetic pole. When it comes to magnets, opposites attract. This fact means that the north end of a magnet in a compass is attracted to the south magnetic pole, which lies close to the geographic north pole.
