A charge Q accumulates on the hollow metallic dome, of radius R, of a Van de Graaff generator. A probe measures the electric fie

ld strength at various points outside the sphere surface. By what factor will the electric field value at the 2R distance be changed if the charge value were increased to (4/3)Q?

Answer:

E'=(3/16)E

Explanation:

The electric field generated by a Van de Graff generator can be taken as the electric field generated by a hollow shell (for distance out of the shell):

E=k\frac{Q}{R^2}

Q: electric charge

K: Coulomb's constant

R: distance in which E is measured.

If the distance is increased to R'=2R, and the charge to Q'=(4/3)Q the new electric field is:

E'=k\frac{Q'}{R'^2}=k\frac{(3/4)Q}{(2R)^2}=\frac{3}{4}k\frac{Q}{4R^2}=\frac{3}{16}k\frac{Q}{R^2}=\frac{3}{16}E

hence, the new electric field E' is 3/16 times the previous electric field E

All biomes don’t have the same level of biodiversity. What seems to be the optimal conditions for high biodiversity?
irinina [24]

Answer:

See the answer below

Explanation:

The optimal conditions for high biodiversity seem to be a <u>warm temperature</u> and <u>wet climates</u>.

<em>The tropical areas of the world have the highest biodiversity and are characterized by an average annual temperature of above 18 </em>^oC<em> and annual precipitation of 262 cm. The areas are referred to as the world's biodiversity hotspots. </em>

Consequently, it follows logically that the optimal conditions for high biodiversity would be a warm temperature of above 18 ^oC and wet environment with annual precipitation of not less than 262 cm.

The variation in temperature and precipitation across biomes can thus be said to be responsible for the variation in the level of biodiversity in them.

How big is the image produced by the periscope compared to the size of the object
ipn [44]

<span>As long as both mirrors are set at 45% and the same size then you see the same as is reflected in the upper mirror </span>

<span>Put a lens in the middle of the tube </span>

<span>? </span>

<span>We use mirrors when we drive cars ect </span>

<span>Normally they are set across from a concealed entrance or one that is hard to see both ways like the inside of a hairpin bend. Sometimes only to help in one direction. </span>

<span>Sonar which is sound waves that are sent out at a set rate then reflected by objects. The longer the gap between the two the further away it is, They still use periscopes to target boats though. </span>

<span>The periscope can only reflect what is outside so if you could see it because there is enough light then Yes. If you could not see it because it is dark then No unless you get into Info-Red light or Image Intensifying systems as well </span>

An electric drill operating at 120 volts draws a current of 3 Amperes. What is the total amount of electrical energy used by the
Liono4ka [1.6K]
<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

= 21600 Joules or 21.6 Kilo joules

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>

Electrical energy is given by the formula  = VIt ;

where V is the voltage in volts, I is the current in Amperes, and t is time in seconds.

Voltage = 120 volts

Current = 3 amperes

Time = 60 seconds or 1 minute

Therefore;

Electrical energy = 120 × 3 × 60

                            <u> = 21600 Joules or 21.6 Kilo joules</u>
