Question
Chapter 26, Problem 46A
To determine
The effect on quartz crystal when a potential difference is applied across it.
Expert Solution & Answer
Explanation of Solution
Introduction:
Quartz is a crystalline, strong stone made up of silicon and oxygen atoms. The atoms are connected in a continuous
When an AC potential difference is applied across quartz crystal, then it will undergo a deformation or bending. This process is known as piezoelectricity. When quartz is getting squeezed then, it will allow charge to pass through and hence, current will be generated.
Conclusion:
Hence, quartz will undergo a deformation and hence current will be produced.

- Part A ■Review The uniform 150-lb stone (rectangular block) is being turned over on its side by pulling the vertical cable slowly upward until the stone begins to tip. (Figure 1) If it then falls freely (T = 0) from an essentially balanced at-rest position, determine the speed at which the corner A strikes the pad at B. The stone does not slip at its corner C as it falls. Suppose that height of the stone is L = 1.2 ft.
