Answer:

(a) The speed of proton decreases as it moves from A to B.

(b) Plate B is at a higher potential.

(c) Plate B is positive, plate A is negative.

(d) Parallel lines parallel to the two plates.

    Parallel lines equally spaced.

Explanation:

The electric potential energy is given by the following formula:

U = \frac{1}{4\pi \epsilon_0}\frac{qq_0}{r}

Alternatively, potential energy in a uniform electric field is

U = qEr

where 'r' is the distance from negative to positive plates. This definition is analogues to that of gravitational potential energy, U = mgh.

If the positively charged proton is gaining potential energy as it gets closer to plate B, then plate B is charged positively.

(a) According to this information, the speed of proton decreases as it moves from A to B. This is similar to the speed of an object which is gaining potential energy by moving higher.

(b) By the same gravitational analogy, plate B is at a higher potential.

(c) As explained before, Plate A is negative and Plate B is positive.

(d) The equipotential lines are parallel to electric field lines which are perpendicular to the plates. So, the equipotential lines are parallel to the plates. Since the electric field between the plates is uniform, then the equipotential lines are equally seperated.

Superman attempts to drink water through a very long vertical straw. With his great strength, he achieves maximum possible sucti
Stells [14]

Answer:

10.32874 m

Explanation:

P_a = Atmospheric pressure = 101325 Pa

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

h = Height of water

\rho = Density of water = 1000 kg/m³

If the walls of the tube do not collapse that means that maximum pressure inside will be the atmospheric pressure

Atmospheric pressure is given by

P_a=\rho gh\\\Rightarrow h=\dfrac{P_a}{\rho g}\\\Rightarrow h=\dfrac{101325}{1000\times 9.81}\\\Rightarrow h=10.32874\ m

The maximum height to which Superman can lift the water is 10.32874 m

On the Moon there is no atmosphere so no atmospheric pressure which means when the straw is placed in water water will not rise in the tube.

What are comets made of?
qaws [65]
<h2>Comets are made of Chunks of rock, gas, Ice, and dust. The Answer is A and C.</h2>

Explanation:

Comets is one of the main types of space rocks. Recent researchers has termed Comets as 'dirty snowballs' of space, that contains ice, rock, gas and dust. The solid center of the comet is less than 10 kilometers across.

Comets are believed to have originated beyond Neptune and Pluto. It is called the Oort Cloud that surrounds the solar system.

It carries carbon dioxide, methane, ammonia, and many more gases. According to Astronomers, comets are assumed to be the leftovers of the material that was initially the part of solar system about billion years ago.

aev [14]

Answer:

Part a)

Rate of charge flow is known as electric current

Part b)

Average current flow is

i = 4\times 10^{-7} A

Part c)

As we know that current density is current per unit area

j = 1.27 \times 10^{-3} A/m^2

Explanation:

As we know that angular frequency of rotation is

\omega = 100\pi rad/s

now by basic definition of electric current

Part a)

Rate of charge flow is known as electric current

i = \frac{dq}{dt}

so here we have

i = \frac{Q}{T}

i = Qf

Part b)

here we know that

\omega = 2\pi f

100\pi = 2\pi f

f = 50 Hz

now we have

i = (8\times 10^{-9})(50)

i = 4\times 10^{-7} A

Part c)

As we know that current density is current per unit area

So we have

j = \frac{i}{A}

j = \frac{4\times 10^{-7}}{\pi(10\times 10^{-3})^2}

j = 1.27 \times 10^{-3} A/m^2
