What is true about the direction of the electric field just outside the surface of a conductor

Biology
1 answer:
natka813 [3]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

The electric field on the surface of a conductor is perpendicular to its surface.

Explanation:

A conductor is a material that has the ability to transport electric charge through it.

Inside such a conductor that is in equilibrium, the electric field is zero, so that the charge accumulates on the surface of the conductor.

The electric field on the surface of a conductor is perpendicular to its surface.

This external electric field on the surface of the condutor can be calculated by Gauss's law, which establishes the equivalence of the flow across a surface with the net charge inside the conductor divided by the permittivity in the vacuum.

The deeper a fossil is found in sedimentary rock, the__?
SashulF [63]
I think the answer is "the older it is"

Reason: I might be wrong but is something (like a shell) gets buried in something (like sand), overtime many things (like dirt, soil, sand, etc.) will be on top of the original. This will make layers. So, the older rock is on the bottom since it has been there for the longest and it gets covered by other stuff (causing the layers).

Hope this helps! :) (If I'm wrong, sorry :( )

gogolik [260]

Answer: Ligand gated channel

Explanation:

Ligand gated channel is an essential membrane protein that has pores and allows the passage of specific ions across the plasma membrane when it is activated by a specific chemical . Examples of such ions that pass through Ligand gated channels are Sodium ions, Potassium ions, Calcium ions. Ligand gated channels are found in extensions of the nerve cells.
