Question
Chapter 22, Problem 1RCQ
To determine
The term used for “electricity at rest”.
Expert Solution & Answer
Answer to Problem 1RCQ
Solution:
The term used for electricity at rest is electrostatics.
Explanation of Solution
Electrostatics (means static electricity) which is defined as follows: “Electrostatic is a branch of science and it implies the charges are static, which suggests there is no motion of charge from the body they are in. Which deals with electricity at rest, such as stationary charges on conductors and laws governing them.”
Conclusion:
Hence, electrostatic is a term used for electricity at rest.

Interplanetary Navigation. The most efficient way to send a spacecraft from the earth to another planet is by using a Hohmann transfer orbit (Fig. P13.87). If the orbits of the departure and destination planets are circular, the Hohmann transfer orbit is an elliptical orbit whose perihelion and aphelion are tangent to the orbits of the two planets. The rockets are fired briefly at the depar- ture planet to put the spacecraft into the transfer orbit; the spacecraft then coasts until it reaches the destination planet. The rockets are then fired again to put the spacecraft into the same orbit about the sun as the destination planet.
