Why do you sometimes get shocked by static electricity? Explain how it happens and give an example.

Physics
1 answer:
laiz [17]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

That tiny shock you feel is a result of the quick movement of these electrons. You can think of a shock as a river of millions of electrons flying through the air. ... Static electricity happens more often during the colder seasons because the air is drier, and it's easier to build up electrons on the skin's surface.

Explanation:

Don't copy excatly but here it is.

Calculate the minimum thickness (in nm) of an oil slick on water that appears blue when illuminated by white light perpendicular
mr_godi [17]

Answer:

The minimum thickness = 83.92 nm

Explanation:

The relation between the wavelength in a particular medium and refractive index \lambda_n = \frac{ \lambda }{n}

where ;

\lambda = wavelength of the light in vacuum

n = refractive index of medium with respect to vacuum

For one phase change :

2t = \frac{\lambda_n}{2}\\\\where \ \lambda_n = \frac{\lambda}{n}\\\\Then \ \\\\2t = \frac{\lambda}{2n}\\\\t = \frac{\lambda_n}{4n}

Replacing 1.43 for n and 480 nm for λ; we have:

t = \frac{480}{4(1.43)}

t = 83.92 nm

Thus; the minimum thickness = 83.92 nm

Compare green and orange light from the visible spectrum. You are currently in a labeling module. Turn off browse mode or quick
77julia77 [94]

Green: nm 495–570. Yellow: nm 570–590. 590–620 nm for orange. Red: 620-750 nm (400–484 THz frequency)

Solids' molecules are strongly attracted to one another. As a result, the molecules are barely moving and tightly packed. Because of this, shape and volume are fixed.

The forces of attraction and repulsion in liquids are comparable. Compared to the solid state, they move a little bit more. They then assume the shape of the container while still having a fixed capacity.

The attraction forces between the molecules in gases are quite weak. They move quite freely and grow in an effort to fill as much space as they can. Consequently, their volume and shape vary (adopt the shape of the container).

Solve this system of equations without graphing and show your reasoning <br><br> 5x+y=7<br> 20x+2=y
tatuchka [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

5x + y = 7

20x - y = -2

    25x = 5

        x = (1/5)

5(1/5) + y = 7

1 + y = 7 .

y = 6
