Answer:
Corpuscular theory of light
Explanation:
In optics, the corpuscular theory of light, arguably set forward by Descartes in 1637, states that light is made up of small discrete particles called "corpuscles" which travel in a straight line with a finite velocity and possess impetus. This was based on an alternate description of atomism of the time period.
Answer:
It depends on the size and density but No.
Explanation:
Answer: sheet of charge
Explanation:
a )
Since the charge is negative , potential will be negative near it . At a far point potential will be less negative. So potential will virtually increase on going away from the sheet . At infinity it will become almost zero. Electric field will be towards the plate , so potential will decrease towards the plate.
b ) The shape of equi -potential surface will be plane parallel to the sheet of charge because electric field will be perpendicular to the sheet of charge and almost uniform near the sheet of charge. The equi- potential surface is always perpendicular to electric field.
C ) Electric field which is almost uniform near the sheet of charge is equal t the following
E = σ / ε₀ where σ is charge density of surface and ε₀ is permittivity of medium whose value is 8.85 x 10⁻¹²
E = 3 x 10⁻⁹ / 8.85 x 10⁻¹²
= .3389 x 10³
= 338.9 V / m
spacing between 1 V
= 1 / 338.9 m
= 2.95 X 10⁻3 m
= 2.95 mm.
