Garrick rubs an inflated balloon against his hair. He then touches the balloon against a non-conducting wall.

Physics
1 answer:
Sauron [17]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Figure A

Explanation:

At first, the inflated balloon is rubbed against the hair.

In this situation, the balloon is charged by friction: because of the friction between the surface of the balllon and the hair, electrons are transferred from the hair to the surface of the balloon.

As a result, when the balloon is detached from the hair, it will have an excess of negative charge (due to the acquired electrons).

Then, the balloon is placed in contact with the non-conducting wall.

The non-conducting wall is initially neutral (equal number of positive and negative charges).

Because the wall is made of a non-conducting material (=isolant), the charges cannot move easily through it. Therefore, even though the charges on the wall feel a force due to the presence of the electrons in the balloon, they will not redistribute along the wall.

Therefore, the charges on the wall will remain equally distributed, as shown in figure A.

AveGali [126]

Answer:

\lambda=1.03\times 10^{-3}\ m

Explanation:

Given that,

The energy of the microwave oven is 1.2\times 10^{-3}\ eV.

We need to find the wavelength of these photons.

1.2\times 10^{-3}\ eV=1.2\times 10^{-3}\times 1.6\times 10^{-19}\\\\=1.92\times 10^{-22}\ J

The energy of a wave is given by :

E=\dfrac{hc}{\lambda}\\\\\lambda=\dfrac{hc}{E}

Put all the values,

\lambda=\dfrac{6.63\times 10^{-34}\times 3\times 10^8}{1.92\times 10^{-22}}\\\\\lambda=1.03\times 10^{-3}\ m

So, the wavelength of these photon is 1.03\times 10^{-3}\ m.
