When light travels through a small hole, it appears to an observer that the light spreads out, blurring the outline of the hole.

Does this observation support the theory of light as a wave, or light being made of particles? Explain.

What are (a) the charge and (b) the charge density on the surface of a conducting sphere of radius 0.20 m whose potential is 240
Lady bird [3.3K]

Answer:

(a) charge q=5.33 nC

(b) charge density σ=10.62 nC/m²

Explanation:

Given data

radius r=0.20 m

potential V=240 V

coulombs constant k=9×10⁹Nm²/C²

To find

(a) charge q

(b) charge density σ

Solution

For (a) charge q

As

V_{potential}=kq/r\\ q=rV_{potential}/k\\q=\frac{(0.20)(240)}{9*10^{9} }\\ q=5.333*10^{-9}C\\or\\ q=5.33nC

For (b) charge density

As charge density σ is given as:

σ=q/(4πR²)

σ=(5.333×10⁻⁹) / (4π×(0.20)²)

σ=10.62 nC/m²

A metal sphere with a mass of 0.026 kg rolls along a friction-less surface at 3.7 m/s and strikes a stationary sphefe having a m
zubka84 [21]

The force applied to the second ball by the first ball is 6.734 × 10^-4 N.

<h3>What is impulse of force?</h3>

The impulse of force is defined as the sum of the average force and the duration it is applied.

If the mass of the item remains constant, the impulse of force equals the change in momentum of the object.

Given that:  mass of a metal sphere: m = 0.026 kg.

Initial speed of the sphere: u = 3.7 m/s.

When the sphere stops completely, its change in momentum = mu - 0

= 0.026×3.7 N-s.

= 0.0962 N-s.

As the spheres are in contact for 0.007s before the second sphere is shot off down the track, the force applied  to the second ball =

change in momentum of 1st ball × time of contact

= 0.0962 × 0.007 N

= 0.0006734 N

= 6.734 × 10^-4 N.

Hence,  the force applied  to the second ball is  6.734 × 10^-4 N.

Describe briefly with used of practical knowledge the effect of the voltage stores across and current
DaniilM [7]

Answer:

Answer in explanation

Explanation:

The path of flow of circuit is called electric circuit. In an electric circuit, resistances are connected in two different ways, which are:

1- Series Combination of Resistances

2- Parallel Combination of Resistances  

<u>Series combination of resistances </u>

In series combination resistors are connected end to end, and there is only one path for the flow of current.  

Characteristics Of Series Circuit:

1. In series circuit there is only one path for the flow of current.

2. Same amount of current flows through each resistor.

I = I₁ = I₂ = I₃ = In

3. Total voltage of the battery is equal to the sum of voltages across each resistor.

V = V₁ +V₂ + V₃ + ... + Vn

4. In series combination the combined resistance of the resistors can be obtained by adding the value of each resistor.

R  =  R₁ + R₂ + R₃ + … + Rn

<u>Parallel combination of resistances </u>

Resistances are set to be connected in parallel, when each of them is connected directly from the terminals of electric source.  

Characteristics Of Series Circuit:

1.  There are more than one path for the flow of current.

2. The value of potential difference remains constant on each resistor.

V = V₁ = V₂ = V₃ = Vn

3. Total current is equal to the sum of current passing through each resistor.

I = I₁ + I₂ + I₃ +...+ In

4. Reciprocal of equivalent resistance is equal to the sum of reciprocals of resistances connected in parallel.  

1/R   =  1/R₁  + 1/R₂  + 1/R₃  + … + 1/Rn  

The circuit diagrams are in attachment.
