What single change to the experimental system would reduce the electric field strength necessary to maintain the oil drop in static equilibrium? ANS- Decreasing the mass of the drop -When the oil drop (with charge -q) is in static eqbm, the electric force it feels, qE upward, is balanced by the gravitational force, mg downward. Thus, qE = mg, so E = mg / q. Don't be confused by the electric field strength in a capacitor, E = V / d. Which of the following equations gives the voltage V ...

4 basic laws of thermodynamics : zeroth law: states that 2 objects in thermodynamic equilibrium with a 3rd object are also in equilibrium with each other 1st law: states that neither mass nor energy can be destroyed; only converted from 1 form to another(conservation of energy) 2nd law: states that the entropy of an isolated system can only increase; heat is not transferred from low temp system to a higher temp system one unless additional work is done 3rd law: states that as a tempe...

Luminosity - The total amount of power a star emits into space that's measured in watts. Apparent Brightness - Amount of starlight that actually reaches Earth HR Diagram - is a graphical tool that astronomers use to classify stars according to their luminosity, spectral type, color, temperature and evolutionary stage. Stars in the stable phase of hydrogen burning lie along the Main Sequence according to their mass. OBAFGKM - Oh Be A Fine Girl Kiss Me Main Sequence - the vast majorit...

PRAXIS 5005 EXAM LATEST VERSION QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS ALL CORRECT What causes the seasons? - Answer-The tilt of the Earth's axis. The earths orbit is not a perfect circle. There are points in its cycle when its closer to the sun, and it does NOT dictate the weather What are the layers of the earth? (from the inside to the outside) - Answer-inner core, outer core, mantle, crust How did earth form? - Answer-a mass of dust and gas spinning as gravity pulled it together How did the con...

near the sun, where the effect of gravity on time is greatest, what is the rate of precession - should be the greatest state the principle of equivalence - observations made in an accelerated reference frame are indistinguishable from observations made in a Newtonian gravitational field a circular disk with a clock in (clock 1) center, (clock 2) at edge, (clock 3) and on ground. - outer clock runs slower than inner clock. clock 1 & 3 run at same rate. clock 2 runs slower A measuring stick ...
