What is the difference between charging by contact and charging by induction in terms of electron transfer.

Veronika [31]

Answer:

the main difference between charging by contact and charging by induction is that in the first case, the two objects are touching, while in the second case, the two objects do not touch

Explanation:

There are three methods of charging an object:

- Charging by friction: this is done by rubbing an object against another object. An example is when a plastic rod is rubbed with a wool cloth. When this is done, electrons are transferred from the wool to the rod, so both objects remain charged at the end of the process

- Charging by contact: this is done by putting in contact a charged object with a neutral, conducting object. In this case, the charges are transferred from the charged object to the neutral object; at the end of the process, the neutral object will also have a net electric charge, so it will be also charged.

- Charging by induction: in this case, we take a charged object, and a neutral object, and we place the two objects close to each other, but without touching. Let's assume that the charged object is negatively charged: in this case, the positive charges in the neutral object are attracted towards the negative charges of the charged object, while the negative charges of the neutral object are repelled away. As a result, the positive and negative charges in the neutral object split apart. If the object is connected to the ground, then negative charges move away, so the neutral object will remain positively charged.

Therefore, the main difference between charging by contact and charging by induction is that in the first case, the two objects are touching, while in the second case, the two objects do not touch.

A point charge q1 is at the center of a sphere of radius 20 cm. Another point charge q2 = 10 nC is located at a distance r = 10

jok3333 [9.3K]

Answer:

q₁ = -2.92 nC

Explanation:

Given;

first point charge, q₁ = ?

second point charge, q₂ = 10 nC

net flux through the surface of the sphere, Φ = 800 N.m²/C

According to Gauss’s law, the flux through any closed surface (Gaussian surface), is equal to the net charge enclosed divided by the permittivity of free space.

$\phi = \frac{q_{enc.}}{\epsilon_o}$

where;

Φ is net flux

$q_{enc.}$ net charge enclosed

ε₀ is permittivity of free space.

$q_{enc.}$ = Φε₀

= 800 x 8.85 x 10⁻¹²

= 7.08 x 10⁻⁹ C

$q_{enc.}$ = 7.08 nC

q₁ + q₂ = $q_{enc.}$

q₁ = $q_{enc.}$ - q₂

q₁ = 7.08nC - 10 nC

q₁ = -2.92 nC

avanturin [10]

Answer:

Yellow, green, polka dot and white jerseys

Explanation:

Tour de France is the biggest bicycle race in the world held at France over a period of 23 days. At the end of each day of racing they give to the certain riders FOUR different colored jerseys:

The yellow jersey is given to the overall winner at each stage, this shows the rider who was the best in the previous stage.
The green jersey is given to the best sprinter of each stage,
The polka dot jersey is given to the rider who first reach the crest of designated hills and mountains at each stage.
The white jersey is given to the fastest rider at each stage under 25 years at the beginning of the racing year.

At the end of the competition, the total points are counted and the different jerseys are given to the overall winners.
