If you have charged an electroscope by contact with a positively charged object, describe how you could use it to determine the

charge of other objects. Specifically, what would the leaves of the electroscope do if other charged objects were brought near its knob?

Explanation:

  • When we have a pre-charged electroscope that is charged using a positive object then we observe that the leaves of the electroscope are spread wide in the diverging position due to the like charges of positive nature on the two leaves.
  • As we know that the charges can only travel through the conductors hence the assembly of the electroscope from the contact knob to the leaves is made of conductor. So the charges spread uniformly on this conductor.
  • Now we can use this as a tester of the other charges. When we bring a negatively charged object near the knob of the electroscope then the opposite charges i.e. positive charges accumulate near the knob due to attraction and the leaves of the electroscope go unstrained and get closer naturally.
  • Contrarily when a positive charge is brought near the knob of the electroscope then the the uniformly distributed charges move away from the knob and accumulate at the farthest point and more deviation is observed on the leaves.

A uniform string of length 0.50 m is fixed at both ends. Find the
kozerog [31]

Answer:

configuration of string:

Node - Antinode - Node    or N-A-N

This is 1/2 wavelength since a full wavelength is N-A-N-A-N

f (fundamental) = V / wavelength

F0 = 300 m/s / 1 m = 100 / sec

F1 = 300 m/s / .5 m = 600 / sec

Each increase is a multiple of the fundamental since the wavelength

increases by 1/2 wavelength to keep nodes at both ends of the string
