What is the triboelectric effect?

Physics
1 answer:
SSSSS [86.1K]2 years ago
6 0

Answer:

The triboelectric effect is an electrical phenomenon where certain materials become electrically charged after coming into contact with another, different, material. The polarity and strength of the charges produced differ according to material and surface smoothness.

Explanation:

The triboelectric effect causes an electrostatic charge to build up on the fur due to the cat's motions. The electric field of the charges results in a slight attraction of the light plastic pieces to the charged fur. The triboelectric effect is also the cause of static cling in clothes.

I hope this helps, if it doesn't then just message me and ill be more than happy to help :)

How does the tension in your arms compare when you let yourself dangle motionless by both arms and by one arm
PolarNik [594]

When you support yourself with two arms, the tension in each arm is half of the tension you experience when you support your weight with only one arm.

The tension in your arm is directly proportional to the weight of your body.

T = W = mg

When you support your weight with your two arms;

  • the upward force balancing the downward force due to the weight of your body will be distributed equally in both arms.

Tension \ in \ each \ arm = \frac{Total \ weight \ of \ your \ body}{2}

When you support the weight of your body with one arm,

  • the upward force balancing the downward force due to your weight will be on only one arm

Tension \ in \ the \ one \ arm = Total \ weight \ of \ your \ body

Thus, when you support yourself with two arms, the tension in each arm is half of the tension you experience when you support your weight with only one arm.

When a body falls freely under gravity, then the work done by the gravity is ___________​
iren [92.7K]

Answer: positive

Explanation:

Gravity can be defined as the force with which the body is attracted towards the center of the earth, or towards any other body. If the force acting on the body is in the direction of displacement then the word done by the applicable force is positive. This causes the free fall of the ball under the influence of gravity is also positive.

Compare the acceleration of a small car and a large truck if an equal force is applied to each vehicle.
tia_tia [17]

Answer:

Acceleration of truck is smaller as compared to the car

Explanation:

We can use newtons second law to solve this

Net Force = mass × acceleration

With the sane force applied and a larger mass of truck, acceleration of truck would be smaller as compared to the car
