A typical commercial airplane is struck by lightning about once per year. When this happens, the external metal skin of the airplane might be burned, but the people and equipment inside the aircraft experience no ill effects. Explain why this is so.
An evacuated tube uses an accelerating voltage of 39 kV to accelerate electrons to hit a copper plate and produce X-rays. Non-relativistically, what would be the maximum speed (in m/s) of these electrons?
m/s
One day on a particularly stormy night, a science student is watching the rain and thinking about all the homework they have to do. Just then a
bolt of lightning discharges 21 C from one cloud to a power line. The student was able to use their iPhone to measure the potential difference
to be 15,050 volts. With this data, how much energy is lost by the cloud and gained by the power line?

- The immediate cause of many deaths is ventricular fibrillation, an uncoordinated quivering of the heart, as opposed to proper beating. An electric shock to the chest can cause momentary paralysis of the heart muscle, after which the heart will sometimes start organized beating again. A defibrillator is a device that applies a strong electric shock to the chest over a time of a few milliseconds. The device contains a capacitor of a few microfarads, charged to several thousand volts. Electrodes called paddles, about 8 cm across and coated with conducting paste, are held against the chest on both sides of the heart. Their handles are insulated to prevent injury to the operator, who calls Clear! and pushes a button on one paddle to discharge the capacitor through the patient's chest Assume an energy of 3.00 102 W s is to be delivered from a 30.0-F capacitor.

(b) What mass of tree sap could be raised from 18.0°C to its boiling point and then evaporated by this energy, assuming sap has the same thermal characteristics as water?arrow_forwardThe first Leyden jar was probably discovered by a German clerk named E. Georg von Kleist. Because von Kleist was not a scientist and did not keep good records, the credit for the discovery of the Leyden jar usually goes to physicist Pieter Musschenbroek from Leyden, Holland. Musschenbroek accidentally discovered the Leyden jar when he tried to charge a jar of water and shocked himself by touching the wire on the inside of the jar while holding the jar on the outside. He said that the shock was no ordinary shock and his body shook violently as though he had been hit by lightning. The energy from the jar that passed through his body was probably around 1 J, and his jar probably had a capacitance of about 1 nF. a. Estimate the charge that passed through Musschenbroeks body. b. What was the potential difference between the inside and outside of the Leyden jar before Musschenbroek discharged it?arrow_forward
- By the time he was forty years old, Benjamin Franklin had made enough money in various business enterprises to live comfortably for the rest of his life. At this time he decided to devote his energy to scientific investigations. It wasn’t until he was nearly 50 years old that he began his career as a statesman. When he was experimenting with atmospheric electricity and lightning, Franklin naturally wanted to know when a charged thundercloud was approaching. He set up the alarm shown here.

- Measuring Blood Flow. Blood contains positive and negative ions and thus is a conductor. A blood vessel, therefore, can be viewed as an electrical wire. We can even picture the flowing blood as a series of parallel conducting slabs whose thickness is the diameter 5.00 mm of the vessel moving with speed. (See in the following figure.( Figure 1)) Figure X XBX X XX X X X X d 1 of 1 V If you expect that the blood will be flowing at 15.3 cm/s for a vessel 5.00 mm in diameter, what strength of magnetic field will you need to produce a potential difference of 1.00 mV ?

This coating leaves the threads, which are used to capture prey, hygroscopic—that is, they attract water from the atmosphere. It has been hypothesized that this aqueous coating makes the threads good electrical conductors. To test the electrical properties of coated thread, researchers placed a 5-mm length of thread between two electrical contacts. The researchers stretched the thread in 1-mm increments to more than twice its original length, and then allowed it to return to its original length, again in 1-mm increments. Some of the resistance measurements are shown in the table: (a) What is the best explanation for the behavior exhibited in the data? (b) If the conductivity of the thread results from the aqueous coating only, how does the cross-sectional area of the coating compare when the thread is 13 mm long versus the starting length of 5 mm?
