How does fabric softener help prevent static electricity?

Physics
1 answer:
Olin [163]2 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Dryer sheets stop static cling by absorbing static electricity formed by different fabrics during your dryer cycle. The fabric softeners that coat dryer sheets are positively charged ions to balance the electrons and ions that cause static cling, leaving you with soft clothes without the static.

Car A has a mass of 1,200 kg and is traveling at a rate of 22 km/hr. Car B has a mass of 1,200 kg and is traveling in the same d
shtirl [24]
<span>Car B has a greater momentum than car A.
Since, momentum =  mass *  velocity
mass of both car A and B is same, velocity of B is greater than A.
So, momentum of car B = 1200 * 25  =  30,000 kg-km/h  is greater than </span>momentum of car A = 1200 * 22  = 26400 kg-km/h

Block A, with a mass of 4.0 kg, is moving with a speed of 2.0 m/s while block B , with a mass of 8.0 kg, is moving in the opposi
Anon25 [30]
Consider velocity to the right as positive.

First mass:
m₁ = 4.0 kg
v₁ = 2.0 m/s to the right

Second mass:
m₂ = 8.0 kg
v₂ = -3.0 m/s to the left

Total momentum of the system is
P = m₁v₁ + m₂v₂
   = 4*2 + 8*(-3)
  = -16 (kg-m)/s

Let v (m/s) be the velocity of the center of mass of the 2-block system.

Because momentum of the system is preserved, therefore
(m₁+m₂)v= -16
(4+8 kg)*(v m/s) = -16 (kg-m)/s
v = -1.333 m/s

Answer:
The center of mass is moving at 1.33 m/s to the left.

A student, starting from rest, slides down a water slide. On the way down, a kinetic frictional force (a nonconservative force)
salantis [7]

Answer:

<em>The velocity with which the student goes down the bottom of glide is 12.48m/s.</em>

Explanation:

The Non conservative force is defined as a force which do not store energy or get he energy dissipate the energy from the system as the system progress with the motion.

Given are

   <em>  mass of the student 73 kg</em>

<em>      height of water glide 11.8 m</em>

<em>      work done as -5.5*10³ J</em>

Have to find speed at which the student goes down the glide.

According to<em> Law of Conservation of energy</em>,

          K.E =P.E+Work Done

 mv²/2=mgh +W

Rearranging the above eqn for v

v = √2(gh+W/m)

Substituting values,

V =  12.48 m/s.

<em>The velocity with which the student goes down the bottom of glide is 12.48m/s.</em>

Nesterboy [21]

Answer:

a=1.03 m/s²

Explanation:

given                                  required

dist=22.1 cm                    a=?

m1=2.1 kg

m2=1.56 kg

m3=1.93 kg

g=9.8 m/s²

solution

there are three forces on this system so we can solve by using newton's second law as follows

t1,t2,and weight of are the only forces acted on the system,

if we take the system on the left mass m3

-m3a=t2-m3g

-1.93 kg×a=t2-1.93 kg×9.8 m/s²

-1.93 kg×a=t2-18.91 N................................ eq 1

take at the right mass m2

m2a=t2-m2×g

1.56 kg×a=t2-1.56 kg×9.8 m/s²

1.56 kg×a=t2-15.288 N...................................2

add the two equations simultaneously and then solve for a,

-1×(-1.93 kg×a=t2-18.91 N) multiply by -1 the first and add the two equations

1.56 kg×a=t2-15.288 N

3.49 kg×a=3.622 N

a=1.03 m/s²
