Static cling makes your clothes stick together. what causes this to happen? 1. external forces to the clothes 2. forces of natur

djyliett [7]

This phenomenon is as a result of static friction created by the tumbling clothes. Static friction results from the rubbing together of two or mores objects or body and electrons are stripped from one surface of the clothes more than the other. This creates an electrostatic force of attractions between the positive charges on one cloth and the negative charges on the other cloth.(unlike charges attract).

Students in an introductory physics lab are performing an experiment with a parallel-plate capacitor made of two circular alumin

Zarrin [17]

Answer:

$\rm 9.186\times 10^{-7}\ C.$

Explanation:

<u>Given:</u>

Diameter of the plates of the capacitor, D = 21 cm = 0.21 m.
Distance of separation between the plates, d = 1.0 cm = 0.01 m.
Minimum value of electric field that produces spark, $\rm E=3\times 10^6\ N/C.$

When the dimensions of the plate of the capacitor is comparatively much larger than the distance of separation between the plates, then, according to the Gauss' law of electrostatics, the value of the electric field strength in the region between the plates of the capacitor is given by

$\rm E=\dfrac{\sigma}{\epsilon_o}.$

where,

$\rm \sigma$ = surface charge density of the plate of the capacitor = $\dfrac qA$ .

$\rm q$ = magnitude of the charge on each of the plate.
$\rm A$ = surface area of each of the plate = $\rm \pi \times (Radius)^2=\pi \times\left ( \dfrac{D}{2}\right )^2= \pi \times \left ( \dfrac{0.21}{2}\right )^2=3.46\times 10^{-2}\ m^2.$
$\epsilon_o$ = electrical permittivity of free space, having value = $8.85\times 10^{-12}\rm \ C^2N^{-1}m^{-2}.$

For the minimum value of electric field that produces spark,

$\rm E = \dfrac{q}{A\epsilon_o}\\\Rightarrow q = E\ A\epsilon_o\\=3\times 10^6\times 3.46\times 10^{-2}\times 8.85\times 10^{-12}\\=9.186\times 10^{-7}\ C.$

It is the maximum value of the magnitude of charge which can be added up to each of the plates of the capacitor.

two children having a disagreement pull on a 50N sled in opposite directions. one pulls with a force of 300N east, the other wit

prohojiy [21]

<span>Since forces are vector quantities, we must indicate direction using positive and negative values. East will be assigned positive and west will be negative. Friction will act as a negative force since it impedes action. To calculate the net force we sum the vector quantities, as follows. Net force equals 50n which is derived by the following calculation: 300n-220n-30n.</span>
