Electric field lines moves away from positive to wards negative?
Archy [21]

The vector force on the unit positive charge placed at any location in the field defines the strength of the electric field at that point. The charge used to determine field intensity (field strength) is known as the test charge. Now, a field line is defined as a line to which the previously mentioned field strength vectors are tangents at the relevant places. When we study positive charge field lines, the field strength vectors point away from the positive charge. If there is a negative charge anywhere in the vicinity, the field lines that began from the positive charge will all terminate at the negative charge if the value of the negative charge is the same as the value of the positive charge. Remember that the number of field lines originating from positive charge is proportional to the charge's value, and similarly, the number of field lines terminating at negative charge is proportionate to the charge's value. As a result, if all charges are equivalent, all lines originating from the positive charge terminate at the negative charge. If the value of the positive charge is greater than the value of the negative charge, the number of lines ending at the negative charge will be proportionally less than the number of lines beginning at the positive charge. The remaining lines that do not end at the negative charge will go to infinity. If the positive charge is less, all lines from it terminate at a negative charge, and any other reasonable number of ines terminate at a negative charge from infinity. We should also keep in mind that the number of lines that run perpendicular to the field direction across a surface of unit area is proportional to the field strength at that location. As a result, lines are dense in the strong field zone and sparse in the low intensity region.

How does radiation transfer thermal energy from the Sun to Earth?
Svetradugi [14.3K]

Answer:

The thermal energy is carried by electromagnetic waves

Explanation:

There are three types of transfer of heat (thermal energy):

- Conduction: conduction occurs when two objects/two substances are in contact with each other. The heat is transferred from the hotter object to the colder object by the collisions between the molecules of the two mediums.

- Convection: convection occurs when a fluid is heated by an external source of heat. The part of the fluid closer to the heat source gets warmer, therefore it becomes less dense and it rises, and it is replaced by the colder part of the fluid, which is colder. Then, this part of fluid is heated as well, so it gets warmer, it rises, etc.. in a cycle.

- Radiation: radiation occurs when thermal energy is carried by electromagnetic waves. Since electromagnetic waves do not need a medium to propagate, this is the only method of heat transfer that can occur through a vacuum (so, in space as well).

Indeed, the Sun emits a lot of electromagnetic radiation, which travels through space and eventually reaches the Earth, heating it.

As a liquid is heated, its vapor pressure increases until the vapor pressure equals the pressure of the gas above it. ... In order to form vapor, the molecules of the liquid must overcome the forces of attraction between them. The temperature of a boiling liquid remains constant, even when more heat is added.

If an object falls far enough, it will reach terminal velocity. At this velocity, the force of air
love history [14]

Answer:

The object will contine to fall, but at a constant velocity.  There will be no more acceleration.

Explanation:  When the force of gravity is equal to the reverse force of air resistance, there will will be no net force on the falling obect.  F = ma, and F (net) = 0.  It will continue at the same speed until those forces become imbalanced again (such as when the force pushing up from the ground is greater than the force of gravity pulling it down).  The metric term for this sudden resistance is "crash/bang/clunk/yieouch."
