What can cause electricity to jump across a gap

Physics
1 answer:
Thepotemich [5.8K]2 years ago
3 0

Answer:

It often happens in a circuit which was conducting,and a switch is opened. Any inductance in the circuit will help the voltage increase due to back emf,and this can cause breakdown of the air insulation and an arc can form.

Marizza181 [45]

The force on the clove will have the same magnitude but a negative sign with it that is F = - 14 N

<h3>What is force and how do we calculate it ?</h3>

The definition of force is: The pushing or pulling on a massed object changes its velocity. Force is an external agent that has the power to alter a body's resting or moving condition.

It has a size and a movement.

Newton's second law of motion defines the force formula as follows:

A force is equal to an object's mass times its acceleration, or F = m a. You must use SI units when applying this formula: kilograms for mass, meters per second squared for acceleration, and newtons for force.

A _____ has to do with the direction of a force​
Elenna [48]

Answer:

The "solid force"? ... The direction of the force always seems to be coming out of the solid surface. A direction which is perpendicular to the plane of a surface is said to be normal. The force that a solid surface exerts on anything in the normal direction is called the normal force.

M=3000km v=25m/s what’s the momentum
valina [46]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

Momentum of the given body will be : 75000 Kg m/s

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

According to Newton's first law of motion, all bodies continue to be in the state of rest or motion unless an external force is applied on the body. We can use this in the case of momentum also

The formula of momentum is given by :

:\implies \sf\quad \sf \:  P = mv

Here, we are given the mass of the body ( m ) as 3000kg and the velocity of the body ( v ) as 25 m/s. On putting the values in the formula:

\begin{aligned}&:\implies \sf\quad \sf \:  P = mv \\& :\implies \sf\quad \sf \:  P = 3000 \times 25 \\ & :\implies \sf\quad \sf \:   \boxed{ \sf \: P = 75000kgm {s}^{ - 1} } \end{aligned}

Momentum is associated with the mass of the moving body and can be defined as the quantity of motion measured as a product of mass and velocity.

Select the correct answer.
scZoUnD [109]

Answer:

B. It is directly proportional to the source charge.

Explanation:

Gauss's law states that the total (net) flux of an electric field at points on a closed surface is directly proportional to the electric charge enclosed by that surface.

This ultimately implies that, Gauss's law relates the electric field at points on a closed surface to the net charge enclosed by that surface.

This electromagnetism law was formulated in 1835 by famous scientists known as Carl Friedrich Gauss.

Mathematically, Gauss's law is given by this formula;

ϕ = (Q/ϵ0)

Where;

ϕ is the electric flux.

Q represents the total charge in an enclosed surface.

ε0 is the electric constant.

Hence, the statement which is true of the electric field at a distance from the source charge is that it is directly proportional to the source charge.

Consider two identical insulated metal spheres, A and B. Sphere A initially has a charge of -6.0 units and sphere B initially ha
Oksi-84 [34.3K]

Answer:

<em>-2 units of charge</em>

Explanation:

charge on A = Qa = -6 units

charge on B = Qb = 2 units

if the spheres are brought in contact with each other, the resultant charge will be evenly distributed on the spheres when they are finally separated.

charge on each sphere will be = \frac{Qa + Qb}{2}

charge on each sphere =  \frac{-6 + 2}{2} = \frac{-4}{2} = <em>-2 units of charge</em>
