What is the relationship between electric field lines and equipotential surfaces?

1 answer:

5 0

An equipotential surface is a three-dimensional version of equipotential lines. * *Equipotential lines are always perpendicular to electric field lines* . The process by which a conductor can be fixed at zero volts by connecting it to the earth with a good conductor is called grounding.

An element can be identified by its spectrum. True False

True. Even though some elements have very similar spectrums that are not easy to tell apart so need to be examined carefully.

What is the energy (in J) stored in the 14.0 µF capacitor of a heart defibrillator charged to 6.90 ✕ 103 V?

Eduardwww [97]

Answer:

The energy stored in the capacitor is 333.3 J

Explanation:

Energy stored in a capacitor = CV²/2

C = capacitance = 14 × 10⁻⁶F

V = 6.90 × 10³V

Energy = (14 × 10⁻⁶)(6.90 × 10³)²/2 = 333.27 = 333.3 J

How far did a frog jump if he travels at a rate of 2.1 m/s for 10 seconds?

Anestetic [448]

Answer:

21 m

Explanation:

The motion of the frog is a uniform motion (constant speed), therefore we can find the distance travelled by using

$d=vt$

where

d is the distance covered

v is the speed

t is the time

The frog in this problem has a speed of

v = 2.1 m/s

and therefore, after t = 10 s, the distance it covered is

$d=(2.1)(10)=21 m$

A sound is recorded at 19 decibels. What is the intensity of the sound?

sp2606 [1]

$1 \times 10^{-10.1} \mathrm{Wm}^{-2}$ is the intensity of the sound.

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

The range of sound intensity that people can recognize is so large (including 13 magnitude levels). The intensity of the weakest audible noise is called the hearing threshold. (intensity about $1 \times 10^{-12} \mathrm{Wm}^{-2}$ ). Because it is difficult to imagine numbers in such a large range, it is advisable to use a scale from 0 to 100.

This is the goal of the decibel scale (dB). Because logarithm has the property of recording a large number and returning a small number, the dB scale is based on a logarithmic scale. The scale is defined so that the hearing threshold has intensity level of sound as 0.

$\text { Intensity }(d B)=(10 d B) \times \log _{10}\left(\frac{I}{I_{0}}\right)$

Where,

I = Intensity of the sound produced

$I_{0}$ = Standard Intensity of sound of 60 decibels = $1 \times 10^{-12} \mathrm{Wm}^{-2}$

So for 19 decibels, determine I as follows,

$19 d B=(10 d B) \times \log _{10}\left(\frac{I}{1 \times 10^{-12} W m^{-2}}\right)$

$\log _{10}\left(\frac{1}{1 \times 10^{-12} \mathrm{Wm}^{-2}}\right)=\frac{19}{10}$

$\log _{10}\left(\frac{1}{1 \times 10^{-12} \mathrm{Wm}^{-2}}\right)=1.9$

When log goes to other side, express in 10 to the power of that side value,

$\left(\frac{I}{1 \times 10^{-12} W m^{-2}}\right)=10^{1.9}$

$I=1 \times 10^{-12} \mathrm{Wm}^{-2} \times 10^{1.9}=1 \times 10^{-12-1.9}=1 \times 10^{-10.1} \mathrm{Wm}^{-2}$
