What are the similarities and differences between the processes in a photocopier and an electrostatic precipitator?
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?
Name two applications for superconductivity listed in this section and explain how superconductivity is used in the application. Can you think of a use for superconductivity that is not listed?
Note that in Figure 20.28, both the concentration gradient and the Coulomb force tend to move Na+ ions into the cell. What prevents this? Figure 20.28 The semipermeable membrane of a cell has different concentrations of ions inside and out. Diffusion moves the K+ and Cl ions in the direction shown, until the Coulomb force halts further transfer. This results in a layer of positive charge on the outside, a layer of negative charge on the inside, and thus a voltage across the cell membrane. The membrane is normally impermeable to Na+.
(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 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?
Why do we need to be careful about work done on the system versus work done by the system in calculations?
How does the polar character of water molecules help to explain waters relatively large dielectric constant? (Figure 19.19) Figure 19,19 Artist's conception of a water molecule. There is an inherent separation of charge, and so water is a polar molecule. Electrons in the molecule are attracted to the oxygen nucleus and leave an excess of positive charge near the two hydrogen nuclai. (Note that the schematic on the right is a rough illustration of the distribution of electrons in the water molecule. It does not show the actual numbers of protons and elections involved in the structure.)

Cell membranes (the walled enclosure around a cell) are generally around 7.5 nm thick (see Figure 4). They are partially permeable to allow loaded material to enter and exit as needed. Equal but opposite surface charges build up on the inner and outer faces of such a membrane, and these charges prevent additional charges from passing through the cell wall. We can model a cell membrane as a capacitor with parallel plates. The membrane itself contains proteins incorporated into an organic material to give the membrane a dielectric constant of about 10. (a) What is the capacity per square centimeter of such a wall cellular? (b) In its normal resting state, the membrane has a potential difference of 85 mV. What is the electric field inside this membrane?
