Static electricity is electricity produced locally that does not flow. It is produced by electrons being rubbed off one object and collecting on another. It cannot flow through a wire like the electricity in your home.
Example:
1) Rub a balloon on your hair and it will stick to the wall. The balloon rubs electrons off your hair and picks up a negative charge. Your hair, in turn, is left with a positive charge. You may even notice your hair has "static" and is standing out from your head.
2) Comb your hair with a plastic comb then use it to pick up small pieces of paper. The comb picks up electrons from your hair and becomes negatively charged. It uses this charge to attract the pieces of paper.
3) Rub your slippered feet on the carpet and then touch something metal like a door knob. The "shock" you feel is static electricity. You pick up electrons from the carpet and discharge them on to the door knob.
Answer:
Explanation:
Given
Initial Velocity (u)=13 m/s
angle
distance between fence and deer=2.5 m
We consider deer jump similar to projectile motion
equation of trajectory
Thus deer will cross the fence with an difference in its jump and fence
1.5-1.148=0.351 m
so deer rises during when it is over fence
Answer: The poker stick should have low thermal conductivity and high specific heat.
Explanation: For a poker stick that is non flammable, it should have some properties which will not let it heat up faster.
Two properties that satisfy the poker stick are:
- Specific heat
- Thermal conductivity
Specific heat is defined as the amount of heat require to raise the temperature of a mass M by 1 °C. More the specific heat, more amount of heat will be required to raise the temperature of a substance.
Thermal conductivity is defined as the ability of a substance to conduct heat. More thermal conductivity means that the substance will get hot faster as it will conduct more amount of heat.
So, for a substance that should not conduct more heat like the poker stick must have high specific heat and low thermal conductivity.
Answer:
2280 V
Explanation:
distance between the plates, d = 4 cm = 0.04 m
Electric field strength, E = 5.7 x 10^4 V/m
The formula for potential difference is given by
V = E x d
V = 5.7 x 10^4 x 0.04
V = 2280 V
thus, the potential difference between the plates is 2280 V.
