Its basically like a barrier same way and ant is able to walk on water it distributes it weight evenly on the water surface so it doesnt break the water tension same thing applies with a paper chip place it so it doesnt break the waters tension and itll float idk if this helped you understand

Surface Tension. Molecules on the surface experience cohesion, this means molecules that are the same material stick together.

An apple is held completely submerged just below the surface of water in a container. The apple is then moved to a deeper point
Tresset [83]

Answer:

Explanation:

When the apple is held submerged in water , it experiences a buoyant force due to which it floats in water . One has to apply downward force to keep it submerged. The lower the buoyant force , lower the force needed to submerge it in water.

When apple is held at much deeper point , it experience greater pressure due to column of water around it . So its size or its volume decreases . But its weight remains the same . Due to less volume , buoyant force also decreases ( buoyant force is equal to weight of displaced volume of water. )

Due to buoyant force becoming less , force needed on apple  in downward direction will also be less.

The smallest unit of charge is − 1.6 × 10 − 19 C, which is the charge in coulombs of a single electron. Robert Millikan was able
vovangra [49]

Answer:

-8.0 \times 10 ^{-19 }\ C,\ -3.2 \times 10 ^{-19 }\ C, -4.8 \times 10 ^{-19 }\ C

Explanation:

<u>Charge of an Electron</u>

Since Robert Millikan determined the charge of a single electron is

q_e=-1.6\cdot 10^{-19}\ C

Every possible charged particle must have a charge that is an exact multiple of that elemental charge. For example, if a particle has 5 electrons in excess, thus its charge is 5\times -1.6\cdot 10^{-19}\ C=-8 \cdot 10^{-19}\ C

Let's test the possible charges listed in the question:

-8.0 \times 10 ^{-19 }. We have just found it's a possible charge of a particle

-3.2 \times 10 ^{-19 }. Since 3.2 is an exact multiple of 1.6, this is also a possible charge of the oil droplets

-1.2 \times 10 ^{-19 } this is not a possible charge for an oil droplet since it's smaller than the charge of the electron, the smallest unit of charge

-5.6 \times 10 ^{-19 },\ -9.4 \times 10 ^{-19 } cannot be a possible charge for an oil droplet because they are not exact multiples of 1.6

Finally, the charge -4.8 \times 10 ^{-19 }\ C is four times the charge of the electron, so it is a possible value for the charge of an oil droplet

Summarizing, the following are the possible values for the charge of an oil droplet:

-8.0 \times 10 ^{-19 }\ C,\ -3.2 \times 10 ^{-19 }\ C, -4.8 \times 10 ^{-19 }\ C

What's the difference between shunt and multiplier?​
vovikov84 [41]

Answer:

A Shunt is a passive element, usually resistive, that is used to bypass current around another element, like a meter, that is not able to handle the full current flow. ... A Multiplier is an active element that amplifies a voltage or current to enable a less sensitive device or circuit to make use of it.
