Why isn't Coulomb's law valid for dielectric objects, even if they are spherically symmetrical?

Answer:

Explanation:

The "traditional" form of Coulomb's law, explicitly the force between two point charges. To establish a similar relationship, you can use the integral form for a continuous charge distribution and calculate the field strength at a given point.

In the case of moving charges, we are in presence of a current, which generates magnetic effects that in turn exert force on moving charges, therefore, no longer can consider only the electrostatic force.

Because in my opinion they do bending of a light wave as it passes at an angle from one medium to another.

A piece of wood has a volume of 4.6 cm to the power of 3, and a mass of 3.7 g what is the density of the wood

AysviL [449]

Density is given by:

D = M/V

D = density, M = mass, V = volume

Given values:

M = 3.7g, V = 4.6cm³

Plug in and solve for D:

D = 3.7/4.6

D = 0.80g/cm³

A real power supply can be modeled as an ideal EMF of 60 Volts in series with an internal resistance. The voltage across the ter

lara31 [8.8K]

Answer:

5 ohms

Explanation:

Given:

EMF of the ideal battery (E) = 60 V

Voltage across the terminals of the battery (V) = 40 V

Current across the terminals (I) = 4 A

Let the internal resistance be 'r'.

Now, we know that, the voltage drop in the battery is given as:

$V_d=Ir$

Therefore, the voltage across the terminals of the battery is given as:

$V= E-V_d\\\\V=E-Ir$

Now, rewriting in terms of 'r', we get:

$Ir=E-V\\\\r=\frac{E-V}{I}$

Plug in the given values and solve for 'r'. This gives,

$r=\frac{60-40}{4}\\\\r=\frac{20}{4}\\\\r=5\ ohms$

Therefore, the internal resistance of the battery is 5 ohms.
