The electric field around a very long uniformly charged cylinder is uniform and points radially outward from the cylinder.


What is the behavior of the magnetic field around a semi-infinite wire?

The magnetic field around a semi-infinite wire is circular and decreases in strength as you move away from the wire.


How many faces vertices and edges does a cyilder have?

I can't speak with any authority, BUT seems to me a cylinder can exist in one of three configurations which would effect the answer (a fixed length with two discrete ends--like a line segment, an infinite length with one fixed end--like a ray, and an infinite length with neither end fixed--like a line). Hence a cylinder has two faces (inside and outside), either zero vertices (if the tube is zero-ended) or infinite vertices (at infinitesimal degrees of rotation around the bends of the tube at the defined end or ends of the tube) (if the tube is single or double ended), and infinite edges (running longitudinally the length of the tube if there is one or two ends). I'm totally guessing as the the number of edges in the case of a zero ended cylinder, but I would have to say infinite there as well, and relying on a series of radially discrete but longitudinally non-discrete albeit perhaps imaginary point around the cylinder in the two extreme lengthwise directions of the cylinder.


Does a cylinder have edges and if so how many?

infinity, the out side of it is a plane, or as from a birds eye view a line, wraped around the middle point. this gives an infinite number of points (each a side) making up the line.


What was the first electric object?

It is believed that the Baghdad Battery, dating back to around 200 BC, is one of the earliest electric objects. It consisted of a clay jar, an iron rod, and a copper cylinder, potentially used for electroplating or medicinal purposes.


What is the influence around a space due to the presence of electrically charge particles?

The presence of electrically charged particles creates an electric field in the space around them. This electric field can interact with other charged particles, exerting forces on them and influencing their movement and behavior. Additionally, the electric field can store energy and affect the properties of the space it occupies.


What surrounds an electrified wire?

An electric field is created around an electrified wire due to the movement of electric charges. This electric field can interact with nearby objects and charges, influencing their behavior. Additionally, a magnetic field is produced around the wire, in accordance with Ampère's law.

What do you win with three numbers on the lottery?

You'll need a time machine. Best bet is the Tipler Cylinder. Procure a cylinder, infinite in length, almost infinite density. Set it spinning at almost infinite angular speed. Now, board your spaceship, which must be capable of travelling at nearly light speed. Set it to follow a certain spiral orbit around the Cylinder. At a certain point in the orbit it will be going backwards in time, so if you time carefully when you jump off, you'll be able to go back and submit your ticket. Of course, once you've completed this fantastic project, you'll need several billion jackpots just to pay off your overdraft... Or you could just buy a lottery ticket anyway and hope for the best...!
