Capillarity  The state of being capillary; the attraction and repulsion of molecules on the surface of a liquid in contact with a solid, as the walls of it's container ,which results in the rise or fall of a liquid when in narrow tubes or fibers, or in the wetting of a solid by a liquid.

The law of conservation of momentum states that the total momentum of interacting objects does not _______. This means the total
Nata [24]

Explanation:

Law of conservation of momentum states that in an isolated system when two objects collide with each other then total momentum before and after the collision is equal.

Thus, we can conclude that the law of conservation of momentum states that the total momentum of interacting objects does not change. This means the total momentum before a collision or explosion is equal to the to momentum after a collision or explosion.

The dome of a Van de Graaff generator receives a charge of 0.00011 C. The radius of the dome is 5.2 m. Find the strength of the
wel

Answer:

Answer:

Explanation:

Given that

K=8.98755×10^9Nm²/C²

Q=0.00011C

Radius of the sphere = 5.2m

g=9.8m/s²

1. The electric field inside a conductor is zero

εΦ=qenc

εEA=qenc

net charge qenc is the algebraic sum of all the enclosed positive and negative charges, and it can be positive, negative, or zero

This surface encloses no charge, and thus qenc=0. Gauss’ law.

Since it is inside the conductor

E=0N/C

2. Since the entire charge us inside the surface, then the electric field at a distance r (5.2m) away form the surface is given as

F=kq1/r²

F=kQ/r²

F=8.98755E9×0.00011/5.2²

F=36561.78N/C

The electric field at the surface of the conductor is 36561N/C

Since the charge is positive the it is outward field

3. Given that a test charge is at 12.6m away,

Then Electric field is given as,

E=kQ/r²

E=8.98755E9 ×0.00011/12.6²

E=6227.34N/C

M (b) Calculate the speed of an electron that is accelerated through the same electric potential difference.
MaRussiya [10]

The speed of a electron that is accelerated from rest through an electric potential difference of 120 V  is 6.49\times10^6m/s

<h3>How to calculate the speed of the electron?</h3>

We know, that the  energy of the system is always conserved.

Using the Law of Conservation of energy,

\triangle K+\triangle U=0

Here, K is the kinetic energy and U is the potential energy.

Now, substituting the formula of U and K, we get:

(\frac{1}{2} mv^2)+(-q\triangle V) =0------(1)

Here,

m is the mass of the electron

v is the speed of the electron

q is the charge on the electron

V is the potential difference

Let v_f and v_i represent the final and initial speed.

Here, v_i =0

Solving for v_f, we get:

v_f=\sqrt{\frac{-2q\triangle V}{m} }

=\sqrt{\frac{2\times1.602\times10^{-19}\times 120}{9.109\times10^{-31}} }

=6.49\times10^6m/s
