Moving the probe 1 cm towards the non-grounded electrode changes the value the potential from about 0.90 V to about 1.2 V. Expla

Answer:

-30 N/C

Explanation:

Since the potential changes from 0.90 V to 1.2 V when I move the probe 1 cm closer to the non-grounded electrode, the electric field is the gradient between the two points is given by E = -ΔV/Δx where ΔV = change in electric potential and Δx = distance of potential change = 1 cm = 0.01 m

Now ΔV = final potential - initial potential = 1.2 V - 0.90 V = 0.30 V

Since E = -ΔV/Δx

substituting the values of the variables into the equation, we have

E = -ΔV/Δx

E = -0.30 V/0.01 m

E = -30 V/m

Since 1 V/m = 1 N/C.

E = -30 N/C

So, the average electric field is -30 N/C

If you quadruple the temperature of a black body, by what factor will the total energy radiated per second per square meter incr
arlik [135]

<u>In modern physics</u>, as it was called "Stefan-Boltzmann law", the total energy radiated per unit surface area of a black body is directly proportional to the fourth power of the black body's temperature T

as:

P\alpha T^4

where: P is the power (total energy radiated per second per square meter) and T is the temperature of a black body.

then we can make a ratio between the state of before quadruple (with subscript 1) and after (with subscript 2) as:

\frac{P_{1} }{P_{2} } =\frac{T_{1}^4 }{T_{2}^4}

As

T_{2}=4T_{1}

Then

\frac{P_{1} }{P_{2} } =\frac{T_{1}^4 }{(4T_{1})^4}

then

P_{2}=256*P_{1}

  • The factor will the total energy radiated per second per square meter increase = 256

Contrary to popular belief, a ski jumper does not achieve a large amount of "air" when doing a jump (less than 6 feet). This is
Elina [12.6K]

Answer:

The vertical distance that the ski jumper fell is 417.45 m.

Explanation:

Given;

initial horizontal velocity of the jumper, V_x = 26 m/s

horizontal distance of the jumper, dx = 240 m

The time of the motion is given by;

dx = Vₓt

t = dx / Vₓ

t = 240 / 26

t = 9.23 s

The vertical distance traveled by the diver is given by;

d_y = V_yt + \frac{1}{2}gt^2

initial vertical velocity, V_y, = 0

d_y =  \frac{1}{2}gt^2\\\\d_y = \frac{1}{2}(9.8)(9.23)^2\\\\d_y = 417.45 \ m

Therefore, the vertical distance that the ski jumper fell is 417.45 m.
