What best describes the direction of the electric field on a spherical equipotential surface?

Physics
1 answer:
Alla [95]4 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Perpendicular to the surface

Explanation:

- Electric field lines represent the direction of the electric field. The electric field lines also correspond to the direction along which the gradient of the electric potential is maximum.

- Equipotentials are lines or surfaces along which the electric potential is constant: the electric potential does not change moving along an equipotential surface.

Given the two definitions, equipotential lines are always perpendicular to the electric field lines. Therefore, in this problem, the direction of the electric field is perpendicular to the spherical equipotential surface.

Answer:

1. a) Draw a line towards the right side from the engine

b) This force pushes the boat forward and helps it accelerate further

2. a) Fixed volume for both solid and liquid

Compressible for only solid

Fixed shape is also for only Solid

b) The answer is 'c'

c) Solids, because they have their particles closely packed therefore they can be compressed (not so sure bout this answer)

7 One lb of Refrigerant 134a contained within a piston–cylinder assembly undergoes a process from a state where the temperature
julsineya [31]

Answer:

\Delta S = S_2-S_1 = 0.08835 \frac {BTU} {Lb ^ {\circ} R}

Explanation:

A) In order to solve the table it is necessary to consult tables A11-E and A10E for refrigerant R134-a

In this way we obtain that:

S_1 = S_f = 0.0648 \frac {BTU} {Lb. ^ {\circ} R}

In this way,

S_2 = S_f + x_2 (S_g-S_f) = 0.0902 + 0.5 (0.2161-0.0902)

S_2 = 0.15315 \frac {BTU} {Lb ^ {\circ} R}

In this way the entropy change is,

\Delta S = S_2-S_1 = 0.08835 \frac {BTU} {Lb. ^ {\°} R}

B) Whenever entropy yields a positive result, the process can be carried out adiabatically.

A circuit consists of a resistance R, and an inductance L in parallel connected, which is in series with a second resistance R2.
Allisa [31]

Answer:

The impedance of the inductor is ω L:

This is in parallel wth R giving a resistance of the parallel combination:

1 / Rp = 1 / ω L + 1 / R

Rp = (ω L * R) / (ω L + R)      for the impedance of the parallel combination

Total resistance (impedance) Rt = Rp + R2 = Z

One can use the term impedance to show that the resulting current is not in phase with the resulting voltage    

phase angle φ -    cos φ  = ω L / Rt

V = I Z        shows the relation of voltage and urrent
