How does charging by conduction occur?

Physics
1 answer:
lutik1710 [3]3 years ago
8 0

Answer : (A) A charged object is brought near a neutral object without touching it.

Explanation:

Bodies can be charged by the method of conduction. By conduction the body acquires the same charge as on the charging body.

Charging the body can be understood by the following example of charging a paper cylinder by conduction. Make a paper cylinder by rolling a strip of paper on a pencil and then gently pulling out the pencil. Suspend the paper cylinder by a string tied to its center, now touch the paper cylinder with a glass rod rubbed with silk so it has a positive charge. Remove the class rod and the again bring it near to the paper cylinder.

The paper cylinder is repelled by the positively charged rod. And when you bring a negatively rubbed rod, next to the cylinder it will be attracted towards the rod. This means that the paper cylinder has acquired a positive charge as on the glass rod due to conduction.

What is the driving force for (a) heat transfer, (b) electric current, and (c) fluid flow?
lara31 [8.8K]

Answer:

The driving force for (a) heat transfer is temperature difference. (b) electric current is voltage difference. (c) fluid flow is pressure or hydraulic head difference.

Explanation: (a) The driving force for heat transfer is temperature difference. Heat transfer between two mediums is possible only if the two mediums are at different temperature, the higher the temperature, the higher the heat transfer.

(b) The driving force for electric current is voltage difference. Voltage difference is defined as the potential difference in charge between two points in electrical field. For electric current to occur,the voltage must be high.

(c) The driving force for fluid flow is pressure difference or hydraulic head difference. For fluid to move upward,it requires energy.

HELP ASAP <br> Describe when contact metamorphism occurs?
diamong [38]

Contact metamorphism occurs adjacent to igneous intrusions and results from high temperatures associated with the igneous intrusion. Since only a small area surrounding the intrusion is heated by the magma, metamorphism is restricted to the zone surrounding the intrusion, called a metamorphic or contact aureole
