Yes, this is true. Van de Graaff generators are devices that produce static this electricity right now.

Yes, that is true. Van de Graaff generators are devices that produce static electricity. Static does not involve acceleration, meaning it is motionless which applies to the building of electric charges since the building up of these electric charges are created in a way to not move. Therefore, the sentence you have stated is an accurate statement.

Let me know if you need anything else. :)

A +27 nCnC point charge is placed at the origin, and a +6 nCnC charge is placed on the xx axis at x=1mx=1m. At what position on

svet-max [94.6K]

Answer:

The position on the x axis is 0.32 m.

Explanation:

Given that,

Point charge = 27 nC

Charge = 6 nC

Distance = 1

We need to calculate the distance

Using formula of electric field

$\dfrac{kq_{1}}{x^2}=\dfrac{kq_{2}}{(r-x)^2}$

Put the value into the formula

$\dfrac{27\times10^{-9}}{x^2}=\dfrac{6\times10^{-9}}{(1-x)^2}$

$\dfrac{27}{x^2}=\dfrac{6}{(1-x)^2}$

$\dfrac{(1-x)^2}{x^2}=\dfrac{27}{6}$

$\dfrac{1-x}{x}=\sqrt{\dfrac{27}{6}}$

$\dfrac{1}{x}=\sqrt{\dfrac{27}{6}}+1$

$x=0.32\ m$

Hence, The position on the x axis is 0.32 m.

A pump uses a piston of 15 cm diameter that moves at 2.0 cm/s as it pushes a fluid through a pipe. what is the speed of the flui

Nitella [24]

The important point here is that volumetric flow rate in the pump and the pipe is the same.

Q = AV, where Q = Volumetric flow rate, A = Cross sectional area, V = velocity

Q (pump) = (π*15^2)/4*2 = 353.43 cm^3/s
Q (pipe) = (π*(3/10)^2)/4*V = 0.071V

Q (pump) = Q (pipe)
0.071V = 353.43 => V = 5000 cm/s

Therefore, the flow of water in the pipe is 5000 cm/s.

If a substance is changing from a vapor to a liquid, like steam on a mirror, it is said to be _______.

NARA [144]

Answer:

condensing

Explanation:

Condensing is the word used to indicate the change of state of a substance from vapor to liquid, as in this case. During condensation, the substance releases thermal energy to the environment, therefore the kinetic energy of the molecules in the vapor decreases until they become closer to each other and they start to be affected by the intermolecular forces and so the substance becomes a liquid.
