How is static electricity different from electric current

Physics
1 answer:
Sindrei [870]3 years ago

Answer:

1. Static electricity is caused by the build up of electrical charges on the surface of objects, while current electricity is a phenomenon from the flow of electrons along a conductor.

A uniformly charged sphere has a potential on its surface of 450 V. At a radial distance of 8.1 m from this surface, the potenti
igomit [66]

Answer:

The radius of the sphere is 4.05 m

Explanation:

Given;

potential at surface, V_s = 450 V

potential at radial distance, V_r = 150

radial distance, l = 8.1 m

Apply Coulomb's law of electrostatic force;

V = \frac{KQ}{r} \\\\V_s = \frac{KQ}{r} \\\\V_r = \frac{KQ}{r+ l}

450 = \frac{KQ}{r} ------equation (i)\\\\150 = \frac{KQ}{r+8.1} ------equation (ii)\\\\divide \ equation (i)\ by \ equation \ (ii)\\\\\frac{450}{150} = (\frac{KQ}{r} )*(\frac{r+8.1}{KQ} )\\\\3 = \frac{r+8.1}{r}  \\\\3r = r + 8.1\\\\2r = 8.1\\\\r = \frac{8.1}{2} \\\\r = 4.05 \ m

Therefore, the radius of the sphere is 4.05 m

A 10.0-kg box starts at rest and slides 3.5 m down a ramp inclined at an angle of 10° with the horizontal. If there is no fricti
Alenkinab [10]

Answer:

v_f = 3.45 m/s

Explanation:

As we know that box was initially at rest

so here work done by all forces on the box = change in its kinetic energy

so we will have

mg sin\theta L = \frac{1}{2}mv_f^2 - \frac{1}{2}mv_i^2

now we have

m = 10 kg

\theta = 10^0

L = 3.5 m

so we will have

10(9.81)sin10 \times 3.5 = \frac{1}{2}(10)(v_f^2 - 0)

2(9.81) sin10 \times 3.5 = v_f^2

so final speed is given as

v_f = 3.45 m/s

What does an electromagnet do?
butalik [34]
An electromagnet is a device that sends electricity through a coil of wire to produce a magnetic field. This leads to a magnet that can be controlled - turned on and off with the flip of a switch, or increased or decreased in strength. The coils are often wrapped around a regular magnet to make it stronger.
