Electric charge can accumulate on an airplane in flight. you may have observed needle-shaped metal extensions on the wing tips and tail of an airplane. their purpose is to allow charge to leak off before much of it accumulates. the electric field around the needle is much larger than the field around the body of the airplane and can become large enough to produce dielectric breakdown of the air, discharging the airplane. to model this process, assume that two charged spherical conductors are connected by a long conducting wire and a charge of 65.0 µc is placed on the combination. one sphere, representing the body of the airplane, has a radius of 6.00 m, and the other, representing the tip of the needle, has a radius of 2.00 cm. (a) what is the electric potential of eachsphere?

These models show the electron structures of two different nonmetal elements. which element is likely more reactive, and why? element 1 is more reactive because it has fewer electron shells and is toward the top of its group on the periodic table. element 1 is more reactive because it has more electrons in its valence shell and is farther to the right on the periodic table. element 2 is more reactive because it does not have a valence shell close to the nucleus, so it will attract electrons. element 2 is more reactive because it does not have a full valence shell, so it will attract electrons.

Asmall electric heater, immersed in 80g of water in a calorimeter of 40j/k raises the temperature from 10.5 degree celsius to 25 degree celsius in 12 minutes. using the same apparatus with 50g of oil instead of water, it is found that the temperature of oil rises from 7 degree celsius to 27 degree celsius in 10 minutes. find specific heat capacity of the oil.

Neurons are components of the nervous system of the body that transmit signals as electrical impulses travel along their length. these impulses propagate when charge suddenly rushes into and then out of a part of the neutron called an axon. measurements have shown that, during the inflow part of this cycle approximately 5.6x10^11 na per meter, each with a charge of e enter the axon. how many coulombs of charge enter a 1.10 cm length of axon during this process
