17. (a) Will the electric field strength between two parallel conducting plates exceed the breakdown strength for air ( 3.0×106

V/m ) if the plates are separated by 2.00 mm and 5.0×103 V a potential difference of is applied? (b) How close together can the plates be with this applied voltage?

Answer:

Explanation:

Distance between plates d = 2 x 10⁻³m

Potential diff applied = 5 x 10³ V

Electric field = Potential diff applied /  d

= 5 x 10³  / 2 x 10⁻³

= 2.5 x 10⁶ V/m

This is less than  breakdown strength for air  3.0×10⁶ V/m

b ) Let the plates be at a separation of d .so

5 x 10³ / d = 3.0×10⁶ ( break down voltage )

d = 5 x 10³  / 3.0×10⁶

= 1.67 x 10⁻³ m

= 1.67 mm.

3. The soccer kicker kicks a 2 kg football with a force of 68 N. How fast will the ball accelerate down the field?
Katen [24]

Answer:

\boxed {\boxed {\sf m= 2 \ kg , \\a= 34 \ m/s^2,  \\\F= 68 \ N}}

Explanation:

The formula for force is:

F=m*a

If we rearrange the formula to solve for a (acceleration), the formula becomes

\frac{F}{m} =a

The force is 68 Newtons. Let's convert the units to make the problem easier later on. 1 N is equal to 1 kg*m/s², so the force of 68 N is equal to 68 kg*m/s².

The mass is 2 kilograms.

F=68 \ kg*m/s^2 \\m= 2\ kg

Substitute the values into the formula.

\frac{68 \ kg*m/s^2}{2 \ kg} =a

Divide. Note that the kilograms will cancel each other out (hence why we changed the units).

\frac{68 \ m/s^2}{2}=a

34 \ m/s^2=a

The acceleration is<u> </u><u>34 meters per second squared.</u>

A parallel beam of light in air makes an angle of 43.5 ∘ with the surface of a glass plate having a refractive index of 1.68. Yo
aniked [119]

Answer:

a) 46.5º  b) 64.4º

Explanation:

To solve this problem we will use the laws of geometric optics

a) For this part we will use the law of reflection that states that the reflected and incident angle are equal

     θ = 43.5º

This angle measured from the surface is

     θ_r = 90 -43.5

     θ_s = 46.5º

b) In this part the law of refraction must be used

     n₁ sin θ₁ = n₂. Sin θ₂

     sin θ₂ = n₁ / n₂ sin θ₁

The index of air refraction is n₁ = 1

The angle is this equation is measured between the vertical line called normal, if the angles are measured with respect to the surface

     θ_s = 90 - θ

     θ_s = 90- 43.5

     θ_s = 46.5º

     sin θ₂ = 1 / 1.68  sin 46.5

     sin θ₂ = 0.4318

     θ₂ = 25.6º

The angle with respect to the surface is

     θ₂_s = 90 - 25.6

     θ₂_s = 64.4º

measured in the fourth quadrant

2. When the pump removed the air in<br> the bell, the balloon<br> contracted<br> expanded
IRINA_888 [86]

When the pump removed the air in  the bell, the balloon expanded.

<u>Option: B</u>

<u>Explanation:</u>

In order to construct our own environment in the glass jar known as bell jar system, which can be used to explore and consider our larger environment on Earths, for an instance. Here a glass jar that hinges on an airtight rubber basis i.e seals appropriately. At the top of the jar, a bung is connected to it which passed via a metal tube. It has an adjacent flexible tube that goes to a hand vacuum pump and the best hand-powered pump was made with a wine preserver.

When the pump extracts the air from the bell jar, the pressure inside the balloon naturally decreases. The balloon usually has a air pressure around it, which restricts its size, but when this air is extracted and the pressure around it decreases the gas in the balloon will expand and the balloon seems to be inflating. When you release the air back into the bell jar, it will once again compress back to its actual size.

Many minerals, such as silver, are good conductors of heat and electricity. How could technology use this property to help ident
Aleks [24]

Answer:

This property could be used to create technologically-advanced tools or machines that could easily locate the mineral deposits.

Explanation:

Mineral deposits are hard to find, unless you have the skill or the proper tools in locating them. This is the reason why many people are mining in order to explore the different areas where they could find these deposits.

If one would consider the property of minerals, such as being good conductors of heat and electricity,<u> then they could create a tool or machine that would aid in their exploration.</u> Inventors could probably come up with a sensitive detector which signals when it reaches an area of high heat and electric conductivity. Since most minerals such as <em>gold, silver, copper, galena, bornite </em>and the like have this property, then miners will have a lesser amount of time looking for them.

If this technology will be implemented, though, regulation policy must be strictly implemented because it might lead to<em> over-mining</em> thus leading to the depletion of mineral deposits.
