Answer:
Explanation:
1) TRUE; potential difference can be calculated using path integral. Since the electric field is a conservative, the potential difference can be calculated using any path.
2) TRUE; since potential due to a charge is inversely dependent on distance, at infinity the potential will be almost zero.
3) TRUE, W = q.VBA.
4) FALSE; eV is a unit for work (or) energy.
5) TRUE; since the electric force is conservative force. There will be no loss in energy, the decreased potential energy will be coverted to kinetic energy.
6) FALSE; in the direction of electric field the potential decreases.
7) FALSE; equipotential surface is perpendicular to the electric field lines.
8) FALSE; electrostatic potential is scalar quantity. It depends only on the charge and distance from it.
9) FALSE; Inside a conductor the electric field is zero but the electric potential is constant at the value that is at the surface of the conductor.
10) TRUE; as long as the field is being measured outiside the body the bodies act as point charges. So electric fields due to all types of bodies charged identically will be equal.
The answer is food irradiation. This involves the brief exposure of food to gamma rays or X-rays to kill pathogens that may contribute to food spoilage. This increases the shelf-life of the food. Gamma rays and X-rays emanate from nuclear decay of radioactive materials such as uranium..
Answer:
The correct option is : Their atoms have eight electrons in their valence shells, so noble gases are very unreactive.
Explanation:
The octet rule state that atoms tend to complete their last energy levels with eight electrons, and that this configuration make them very stable and unreactive.
Noble gases are characterized as unreactive atoms, and this is associated with the fact that they have a complete valence shell, it means that they have eight electrons on it (they follow the octet rule).
Atoms with less electrons on their valence shells tend to react with another atom, forming bonds, to complete their valence shells (with eight electrons).
