a) An inflated balloon was pressed against a wall after it has been rubbed with a piece of synthetic cloth. It was found that the balloon sticks to the wall. <u>This is because a positive and negative electric charge is produced, therefore the balloon sticks to the wall.</u>
b) When an object is thrown up, it comes back to ground <u>because of gravitational attraction force of earth</u>.
c) Mountaineers suffer nose bleeding at higher altitudes <u>because the oxygen level decreases with increase in altitude, which the body cannot adjust.</u>
d) Foundations of high rise buildings are kept wide <u>because more is the area of contact, less is the pressure efforts. So, foundations are wide so as to decrease the possibility of the building from falling down.</u>
e) Deep sea divers or high altitude fliers wear special suits <u>so as prevent their body from being crushed by the water pressure. Since water pressure is maximum at deep seas and oceans, therefore, more is the risk of being injured.</u>
f) Walls of a dam are thickened near the base <u>so that the dam can handle the kinetic energy pressure and prevent itself from breaking down, which if not, can lead to flooding</u>.

Answer:
The linear charge density is 5.19 X 10⁻⁶ C/m
Explanation:
The potential difference between two cylinders, is given as
V = (λ/2πε)ln(b/a)
where;
λ is the line charge density on the power line.
b is the distance between the power line = 1 m
a is the radius of the wire = 1.5 cm = 0.015 m
ε is the permittivity of free space = 8.9 X 10⁻¹² C
V*2πε = λ* ln(b/a)
3900 *(2π*8.9 x10⁻¹²)= λ *ln(1/0.015)
2.1812 X 10⁻⁷ = 4.1997* λ
λ = 5.19 X 10⁻⁶ C/m
Therefore, the linear charge density is 5.19 X 10⁻⁶ C/m
