The US English System of measurement grew out of the manner in which people secured measurements using body parts and familiar objects. For example, shorter ground distances were measured with the human foot and longer distances were measured by paces, with one mile being 1,000 paces. Capacities were measured with household items such as cups, pails (formerly called gallons) and baskets.
Answer:
p = 1.16 10⁻¹⁴ C m and ΔU = 2.7 10 -11 J
Explanation:
The dipole moment of a dipole is the product of charges by distance
p = 2 a q
With 2a the distance between the charges and the magnitude of the charges
p = 1.7 10⁻⁹ 6.8 10⁻⁶
p = 1.16 10⁻¹⁴ C m
The potential energie dipole is described by the expression
U = - p E cos θ
Where θ is the angle between the dipole and the electric field, the zero value of the potential energy is located for when the dipole is perpendicular to the electric field line
Orientation parallel to the field
θ = 0º
U = 1.16 10⁻¹⁴ 1160 cos 0
U1 = 1.35 10⁻¹¹ J
Antiparallel orientation
θ = 180º
cos 180 = -1
U2 = -1.35 10⁻¹¹ J
The difference in energy between these two configurations is the subtraction of the energies
ΔU = | U1 -U2 |
ΔU = 1.35 10-11 - (-1.35 10-11)
ΔU = 2.7 10 -11 J
D. 51 N. The minimum applied force that will cause the television slide is 51 N.
In order to solve this problem we have to use the force of static friction equation Fs = μs*n, where μs is the coefficient of static friction, and n is the normal force m*g.
With μs = 0.35, and n = 15kg*9.8m/s² = 147 N
Fs = (0.35)(147 N)
Fs = 51.45 N
Fs ≅ 51 N
Answer:
B. Fluorescent lamps operate at a higher temperature than incandescent
Explanation:
Fluorescent lamps have a number of advantages over incandescent lamps which are given in the options given in A, C and D. The option available in B is a drawback, not an advantage. This is because it can give out and radiate more heat as a result of working at a higher temperature. Hence B option is correct.
