Chapter 4: Q17DQ (page 947)

If a magnet is suspended over a container of liquid air, it attracts droplets to its poles. The droplets contain only liquid oxygen; even though nitrogen is the primary constituent of air, it is not attracted to the magnet. Explain what this tells you about the magnetic susceptibilities of oxygen and nitrogen, and explain why a magnet in ordinary, room-temperature air doesn鈥檛 attract molecules of oxygen gas to its poles.

Short Answer

Expert verified

This is hold due to paramagnetic material liquid oxygen.

Step by step solution

01

Definition of paramagnetic material

The term paramagnetic material may be defined as the material when placed in magnetic field they get weakly magnetized in the direction of magnetizing field.

02

Explain the reason of question

If the liquid oxygen is paramagnetic material so a magnet is suspended over a container of liquid air, it attracts droplets to its poles. And somewhere if the droplet of oxygen not attract to the magnet it means liquid nitrogen is diamagnetic. The susceptibility of the paramagnetic material and diamagnetic material is positive and negative respectively. The susceptibility of the liquid oxygen and nitrogen positive and negative respectively. A magnet in ordinary, room-temperature air doesn鈥檛 attract molecules of oxygen gas to its poles because dry air is not magnetic.

A 12.4-碌F capacitor is connected through a 0.895-M鈩� resistor to a constant potential difference of 60.0 V. (a) Compute the charge on the capacitor at the following times after the connections are made: 0, 5.0 s, 10.0 s, 20.0 s, and 100.0 s. (b) Compute the charging currents at the same instants. (c) Graph the results of parts (a) and (b) for t between 0 and 20 s

A typical small flashlight contains two batteries, each having an emf of1.5V, connected in series with a bulb having resistance17惟. (a) If the internal resistance of the batteries is negligible, what power is delivered to the bulb? (b) If the batteries last for1.5hwhat is the total energy delivered to the bulb? (c) The resistance of real batteries increases as they run down. If the initial internal resistance is negligible, what is the combined internal resistance of both batteries when the power to the bulb has decreased to half its initial value? (Assume that the resistance of the bulb is constant. Actually, it will change somewhat when the current through the filament changes, because this changes the temperature of the filament and hence the resistivity of the filament wire.)

BIO The average bulk resistivity of the human body (apart from surface resistance of the skin) is about 5.0惟路m. The conducting path between the hands can be represented approximately as a cylinder 1.6 m long and 0.10 m in diameter. The skin resistance can be made negligible bysoaking the hands in salt water. (a) What is the resistance between the hands if the skin resistance is negligible? (b) What potential difference between thehands is needed for a lethal shock current of 100 mA ? (Note that your result shows that small potential differences produce dangerous currents when the skin is damp.) (c) With the current in part (b),what power is dissipated in the body?

A light bulb glows because it has resistance. The brightness of a light bulb increases with the electrical power dissipated in the bulb. (a) In the circuit shown in Fig. Q25.14a, the two bulbs A and B are identical. Compared to bulb A, does bulb B glow more brightly, just as brightly, or less brightly? Explain your reasoning. (b) Bulb B is removed from the circuit and the circuit is completed as shown in Fig. Q25.14b. Compared to the brightness of bulb A in Fig. Q25.14a, does bulb A now glow more brightly, just as brightly, or less brightly? Explain your reasoning

The potential difference across the terminals of a battery is 8.40 V when there is a current of 1.50 A in the battery from the negative to the positive terminal. When the current is 3.50 A in the reverse direction, the potential difference becomes10.20 V . (a) What is the internal resistance of the battery? (b) What is the emf of the battery?
