Explanation:

object made of rubber, such as the ballons are elecrical insulators, meaning that they resist electric charges flowing through them..

when the ballon has been rubbed enough times to gain a sufficient negative charge, it will be attracted to the wall

An AM radio station broadcasts isotropically (equally in all directions) with an average power of 3.40 kW. A receiving antenna 6

lara [203]

To solve the problem we will apply the concepts related to the Intensity as a function of the power and the area, as well as the electric field as a function of the current, the speed of light and the permeability in free space, as shown below.

The intensity of the wave at the receiver is

$I = \frac{P_{avg}}{A}$

$I = \frac{P_{avg}}{4\pi r^2}$

$I = \frac{3.4*10^3}{4\pi(4*1609.34)^2} \rightarrow 1mile = 1609.3m$

$I = 6.529*10^{-6}W/m^2$

The amplitude of electric field at the receiver is

$I = \frac{E_{max}^2}{2\mu_0 c}$

$E_{max}= \sqrt{2I\mu_0 c}$

The amplitude of induced emf by this signal between the ends of the receiving antenna is

$\epsilon_{max} = E_{max} d$

$\epsilon_{max} = \sqrt{2I \mu_0 cd}$

Here,

I = Current

$\mu_0$ = Permeability at free space

c = Light speed

d = Distance

Replacing,

$\epsilon_{max} = \sqrt{2(6.529*10^{-6})(4\pi*10^{-7})(3*10^{8})(60.0*10^{-2})}$

$\epsilon_{max} = 0.05434V$

Thus, the amplitude of induced emf by this signal between the ends of the receiving antenna is 0.0543V

. Two identical vehicles traveling at the same speed are made to collide with barriers in an insurance company collision test. T

Serggg [28]

Answer:

F₁ / F₂ = 10

therefore the first out is 10 times greater than the second barrier

Explanation:

For this exercise let's use the relationship between momentum and momentum.

I = F t = Δp

in this case the final velocity is zero

F t = 0 -m v₀

F = m v₀ / t

in order to answer the question we must assume that the two vehicles have the same mass and speed

concrete barrier

F₁ = -p₀ / 0.1

F₁ = - 10 p₀

barrier collapses

F₂ = -p₀ / 1

let's look for the relationship of the forces

F₁ / F₂ = 10

therefore the first out is 10 times greater than the second barrier

A plate carries a charge of 3.8 UC, while a rod carries a charge of 1.9 C. How many electrons must be transferred from the plate

frosja888 [35]

Answer:

$N_{electrons}=Q_{transfered}/q_{electron}=5.94*10^{18}electrons$

Explanation:

The total charge is distributed over the two objects:

$Q_{total}/2=(3.8*10^{-6}C+1.9C)/2=0.9500019C\\$

The plate and the rod must have $Q_{total}/2\\$ . So the charge transferred from the plate to the rod is:

$Q_{transfered}=3.8*10^{-6}C-Q_{total}/2=3.8*10^{-6}C-0.9500019C=-0.9499981C\\$

Number of electrons:

$N_{electrons}=Q_{transfered}/q_{electron}=-0.9499981C/(-1.6*10^{-19}C)=5.94*10^{18}electrons$
