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 80.0 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 each sphere?
(b) What is the electric field at the surface of each sphere?

You notice a very one-dimensional-thinking snail crawling along one rail of a railroad track. naturally, you remove it to a safer place. but before you do, you observe it as it moves from position xi = -92.9 cm to position xf = -64.9 cm along the rail, as measured from a point where one rail abuts the next. what is the snail\'s displacement δx in centimeters?

Imagine you had to physically add electrons, one at a time, to a previously neutral conductor. you add one electron very easily, but the second electron requires more work. in your initial post to the discussion, explain why this is. also, what happens to the work needed to add the third, fourth, fifth, and subsequent electrons

Gabby calls her cousin who lives in a different state and tells her to turn her radio to channel 98.7 so they can listen to their favorite song that is playing. her cousin turns her radio to 98.7, but does not hear the same song gabby hears. which most likely explains why?
