Suppose that after walking across a carpeted floor you reach for a doorknob and just before you touch it a spark jumps 0.95cm fr

om your finger to the knob. Find the minimum voltage needed between your finger and the doorknob to generate this spark. The minimum field that can produce a spark in air is 3.0x10^6 V/m. V = _______ V

To solve this problem we will consider the definition of Minimum Energy, as the change between the minimum voltage and its distance. Mathematically it can be written as

E_{min} = \frac{V_{min}}{r}

Rearranging to find the Voltage,

V_{min} = E_{min} \times r

Replacing,

V_{min} = (3.0) \times (0.95*10^4)

V_{min} = 28500V

Therefore the minimum voltage needed between your finger and the doorknob to generate this spark is 28.5kV

Pavlova-9 [17]

As it is pushed deeper, the buoyant force on the jar will decrease. The correct option is B

<h3>What is buoyant force ?</h3>

The upward force applied to an object that is fully or partially submerged in a fluid is known as the buoyant force. Upthrust is another name for this upward thrust. A body submerged partially or completely in a fluid appears to shed weight, or to be lighter, due to the buoyant force.

The fluid under which an object is submerged exerts pressure, which is what generates the buoyancy force. Because a fluid's pressure rises with depth, the buoyancy force is always upward.

1. Mr. Ure has a mass of 65 kg, due to the fact that he is WAY too skinny! What is the force of Earth's gravity on him?
shepuryov [24]

1.

m = mass of Mr. Ure = 65 kg

g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²

force of earth's gravity on Mr. Ure is given as

F = mg

F = 65 x 9.8

F = 637 N


2.

F = force of gravity on car = 3050 N

m = mass of the car = ?

g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²

force of gravity on car is given as

F = mg

3050 = m (9.8)

m = 3050/9.8

m = 311.22 kg


3.

m = mass of Mr. Rees = 90 kg

g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²

force of earth's gravity on Mr. Rees is given as

F = mg

F = 90 x 9.8

F = 882 N
