A ship sailing away from you gradually goes out of sight,
starting from the bottom and moving up the sides of the ship.
The Earth is a sphere. As the ship gets farther away from
you, it's working its way around the curve of the sphere.
Since you can't see around the curve of the Earth, the
lowest point on the ship that you can see moves slowly
up the ship.

What was your electric potential relative to a metal pipe if a spark jumped 1.1 cm through dry air from your finger to the pipe?

romanna [79]

The electric field is given by volts/distance: $E= \frac{V}{d}$ . The breakdown voltage of dry air is about 3x10^6V/m. So solving for V we get
$V=Ed$
or $V=(3e6V/m)(0.011m)=33,000V$

A 2.0 m tall person is standing in front of a flat vertical mirror. What minimum height must the mirror have if the person is to

dangina [55]

Answer:

100cm

Explanation:

Since the eyes are 6 cm below the top of her head, the point of incidence of the ray must be

200cm-3cm=197cm

Since the eyes are 194 cm from her feet, the point of incidence of this ray must be

194cm/2=97cm

So the lower edge of the mirror must be 97 cm from the ground and the vertical dimension of the mirror must be 197 cm - 97 cm = 100 cm, which is half the height of the person.
