A spherical drop of water carrying a charge of 30 pC has a potential of 500 V at its surface (with V 0 at infinity). (a) What is

the radius of the drop? (b) If two such drops of the same charge and radius combine to form a single spherical drop, what is the potential at the surface of the new drop?

Answer:

A. 5.4 * 10^(-4) m

B. 500V

Explanation:

A. Electric potential, V is given as:

V = kq/r

This means that radius, r is

r = kq/V

r = (9 * 10^9 * 30 * 10^(-12))/500

r = (270 * 10^(-3))/500

r = 5.4 * 10^(-4) m

B. Now the radius is doubled and the charge is doubled,

V = (9 * 10^9 * 2 * 30 * 10^(-12))/(2 * 5.4 * 10^(-4) * 2)

V = 500V

A fisherman notices that his boat is moving up and down periodically without any horizontal motion, owing to waves on the surfac
Sedbober [7]

Answer:

v = 1.2 m/s

Explanation:

The wavelength of the waves is given as the horizontal distance between the crests:

λ = wavelength = 5.5 m

Now, the time period is given as the time taken by boat to move from the highest point again to the highest point. So it will be equal to twice the time taken by the boat to travel from highest to the lowest point:

T = Time Period = 2(2.3 s) = 4.6 s

Now, the speed of the wave is given as:

v = f\lambda

where,

v= speed of wave = ?

f = frequency of wave = \frac{1}{T} = \frac{1}{4.6\ s} = 0.217\ Hz

Therefore,

v = (0.217\ Hz)(5.5\ m)\\

<u>v = 1.2 m/s</u>

Fill in the blank. Consider the inverse square law: When light leaves a light bulb, it spreads out over more and more space as i
aliya0001 [1]

Answer:

Explanation:

Intensity of light is inversely proportional to distance from source

I ∝ 1 /r²  where I is intensity and r is distance from source . If I₁ and I₂ be intensity at distance r₁ and r₂ .

I₁ /I₂ = r₂² /r₁²

If r₂ = 4r₁ ( given )

I₁ / I₂ = (4r₁ )² / r₁²

= 16 r₁² / r₁²

I₁ / I₂ = 16

I₂ = I₁ / 16

So intensity will become 16 times less bright .

"16 times " is the answer .
