Why do we need to be careful about work done on the system versus work done by the system in calculations?
The 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?
(Indicates a review question, which means it requires only a basic understanding of the material to answer. Questions without this designation typically require integrating or extending the concepts presented thus far.) When clothes are removed from a hot dryer, they often cling together, but when two identical articles of clothing, such as two matched socks, are taken out, they usually repel one another. Explain this difference in behavior.
The probability of fusion occurring is greatly enhanced when appropriate nuclei are brought close together, but mutual Coulomb repulsion must be overcome. This can be done using the kinetic energy of high- temperature gas ions or by accelerating the nuclei toward one another. (a) Calculate the potential energy of two singly charged nuclei separated by 1.001012. (b) At what temperature will atoms of a gas have an average kinetic energy equal to this needed electrical potential energy?

An empty metal paint can is placed on a marble table, the lid is removed , and both parts are discharged (honorably) by touching them to ground. An insulating nylon thread is glued to the center of the lid, and a penny, a nickel and a dime are glued to the thread so that they are not touching each other . The penny is given a charge of +5 nC, and the nickel and dime are discharged. the assembly is lowered into the can so that the coins hang clear of all walls, and the lid is secured. The outside of the can is again touched momentarily to ground. The device is carefully disassembled with insulating gloves and tools. (a) what charges are found on each of the five metallic pieces? (b) if the penny had been given a charge of +5 nC, the dime a charge of -2 nC, and the nickel a charge of -1 nC, what would the final charge arrangement have been?
Their clothes tend to stick together after they pass through the dryer. Because?
