<span>When Kevin pulls his cotton shirt off his body, the electrons get transferred from the shirt (in form of static charges i.e. electrons to the body. So, the shirt becomes positively charged and Kevin’s body becomes negatively charged.

As a result of charge transfer from the shirt to the body, we can hear a crackling sound. or if observed in dark, a sparkle can be seen.</span>

A 1.5 m cylinder of radius 1.1 cm is made of a complicated mixture materials. Its resistivity depends on the distance x from the

Elis [28]

Answer:

a) $R = 171$ μΩ

b) $E = 1.7 *10^{-4} V/m$

c) $R_{2} = 1.16 *10^{-4}$ Ω

here * stand for multiplication

Explanation:

length of cylinder = 1.5 m

radius of cylinder = 1.1 cm

resistivity depends on the distance x from the left

$p(x)=a+bx^2$ ............(i)

using equation

$R = \frac{pl}{a}$

let dR is the resistance of thickness dx

$dR =\frac{p(x)dx}{a}$

where p(x) is resistivity l is length

a is area

$\int\limits^R_0 {dR} =\frac{1}{\pi r^2} \int\limits^L_0 {(a+bx^2)} \, dx \\$ .........................(2)

after integration

$R = \frac{[aL+\frac{bL^3}{3}] }{\pi r^2}$ ...............(3)

it is given $p(0) = a = 2.25 * 10 ^{-8}$ Ωm

$p(L) = a + b(L)^2$ = $8.5 * 10 ^{-8}$ Ωm

$8.5 * 10 ^{-8} = 2.25 * 10^{-8}+b(1.5)^2\\$

(here * stand for multiplication )

on solving we get

$b = 2.78* 10^{-8}$ Ωm

put each value of a and b and r value in equation 3rd we get

$R = \frac{[aL+\frac{bL^3}{3}] }{\pi r^2}$

$R = 1.71 * 10^{-4}$ Ω

$R = 171$ μΩ

FOR (b)

for mid point x = L/2

E = p(x)L

for x = L/2

$p(L/2) = a+b(L/2)^2$

for given current I = 1.75 A

so electric field

$E = \frac{[a+b(L/2)^2]I }{\pi r^2}$

by substitute the values

we get;

$E = 1.7 *10^{-4} V/m$

(here * stand for multiplication )

c ).

75 cm means length will be half

that is x = L/2

integrate the second equation with upper limit L/2

Let resistance is $R_{1}$

so after integration we get

$R_{1} = \frac{[a(L/2) +(b/3)(L^3/8)]}{\pi r^2}$

substitute the value of a , b and L we get

$R_{1} = 5.47 * 10 ^{-5}$ Ω

for second half resistance

$R_{2} = R- R_{1}$

$R_{2} = 1.7 *10^{-4} -5.47 *10^{-5}$

$R_{2} = 1.16 *10^{-4}$ Ω

(here * stand for multiplication )

According to a rule-of-thumb. every five seconds between a lightning flash and the following thunder gives the distance to the f

Bond [772]

Answer:

$S_{s}=300 m/s$

The rule for kilometers is that every three seconds between a lightning flash and the following thunder gives the distance to the flash in kilometers.

Explanation:

In order to use the rule of thumb to find the speed of sound in meters per second, we need to use some conversion ratios. We know there is 1 mile per every 5 seconds after the lightning is seen. We also know that there are 5280ft in 1 mile and we also know that there are 0.3048m in 1ft. This is enough information to solve this problem. We set our conversion ratios like this:

$\frac{1mi}{5s}*\frac{5280ft}{1mi}*\frac{0.3048m}{1ft}=321.87m/s$

notice how the ratios were written in such a way that the units got cancelled when calculating them. Notice that in one ratio the miles were on the numerator of the fraction while on the other they were on the denominator, which allows us to cancel them. The same happened with the feet.

The problem asks us to express the answer to one significant figure so the speed of sound rounds to 300m/s.

For the second part of the problem we need to use conversions again. This time we will write our ratios backwards and take into account that there are 1000m to 1 km, so we get:

$\frac{5s}{1mi}*\frac{1mi}{5280ft}*\frac{1ft}{0.3048m}*\frac{1000m}{1km}=3.11s/km$

This means that for every 3.11s there will be a distance of 1km from the place where the lightning stroke. Since this is a rule of thumb, we round to the nearest integer for the calculations to be made easily, so the rule goes like this:

The rule for kilometers is that every three seconds between a lightning flash and the following thunder gives the distance to the flash in kilometers.

What is the y component of a vector defined as 12.2m at 81.5°?

sergejj [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

This is a displacement vector since it is defined in terms of distance (meters, to be exact). The way you find the y-component is

$V_y=Vsin\theta$ which says that you multiply the magnitude of the vector (its length) by the sin of the direction (the angle):

$V_y=12.2sin(81.5)$ and get

$V_y=$ 12.1 m
