In a thunderstorm, the air must be ionized by a high voltage before a conducting path for a lightning bolt can be created. an el

ectric field of about 1.0 × 106 v/m is required to ionize dry air. what would the break- down voltage in air be if a thundercloud were 1.60 km above ground? assume that the electric field between the cloud and the ground is uniform.

We know that the electric field is equal to 1 E 6 V/m

The distance between the thundercloud and the ground is 1.6km = 1600m

Electric field = Voltage/distance

This means that the breakdown voltage must be equal to

V = 1 E 6 V/m * 1600m = 1.6 E 9 V = 1.6 GV

Determine the value of the force exerted by the surface (normal force) on a
Advocard [28]

Answer:

53.5 N

Explanation:

Vertical component of the F force   50 sin30    = 25 N  upward

   force of gravity = m g = 8 * 9.81 =78.5 N Downward

NET downward force by block on table = net upward force exerted by table =  78.5 -25 =53.5 N

A 25 N force is used to push a box across a floor against a frictional force of 14 N. The box
Svetlanka [38]

Answer:

m = 44~Kg

Explanation:

<u>Net Force</u>

Newton's second law explains the dynamics principles when a number of forces are applied to an object.

The net force vector is the sum of the individual vector forces applied. The magnitude of the net force is related to the magnitude of the acceleration of the body as follows:

Fn=m.a

Furthermore, the acceleration can be calculated if we know the kinematic behavior of the body:

\displaystyle a=\frac{v_f-v_o}{t}

Where vf, vo, and t are the final speed, initial speed, and time, respectively.

The box is pushed across the floor with a force of 25 N against a frictional force of 14 N.

The net force applied to the box is:

Fn = 25 N - 14 N = 11 N

We also know the box is accelerated from rest (vo=0) to vf=4 m/s in t=16 seconds, thus:

\displaystyle a=\frac{4-0}{16}

a = 0.25~m/s^2

From the equation:

Fn=m.a

We solve for m:

\displaystyle m=\frac{Fn}{a}=\frac{11~N}{0.25~m/s^2}

\mathbf{m = 44~Kg}
