A gold leaf electroscope's cap develops a negative charge when a negatively charged rod is brought close to it; the case is then grounded, creating a negative charge in the leaf. Option D is correct.

<h3>What is the charge?</h3>

When the matter is put in an electromagnetic field, it has an electric charge, which causes it to experience a force. A positive or negative electric charge can exist.

Similar charges repel each other, whereas dissimilar charges attract each other.

The term "neutral" refers to an item that has no net charge. A charge is something experienced as a force in the electric and magnetic fields.

When a negatively charged rod is brought near the cap of a gold leaf electroscope whose case ad then is earthed, then the leaf has an induced negative charge.

Hence option D is correct.

8. A rectangle is measured to be 6.4 +0.2 cm by 8.3 $0.2 cm.
mamaluj [8]

Answer:

a) The perimeter of the rectangle is 29.4 centimeters.

b) The uncertainty in its perimeter is 0.8 centimeters.

Explanation:

a) From Geometry we remember that the perimeter of the rectangle (p), measured in centimeters, is represented by the following formula:

p = 2\cdot (w+l) (1)

Where:

w - Width, measured in centimeters.

l - Length, measured in centimeters.

If we know that w = 6.4\,cm and l = 8.3\,cm, then the perimeter of the rectangle is:

p = 2\cdot (6.4\,cm+8.3\,cm)

p = 29.4\,cm

The perimeter of the rectangle is 29.4 centimeters.

b) The uncertainty of the perimeter (\Delta p), measured in centimeters, is estimated by differences. That is:

\Delta p = 2\cdot (\Delta w + \Delta l)  (2)

Where:

\Delta w - Uncertainty in width, measured in centimeters.

\Delta l - Uncertainty in length, measured in centimeters.

If we know that \Delta w = 0.2\,cm and \Delta l = 0.2\,cm, then the uncertainty in perimeter is:

\Delta p = 2\cdot (0.2\,cm+0.2\,cm)

\Delta p = 0.8\,cm

The uncertainty in its perimeter is 0.8 centimeters.

The two forces of a 3rd law pair always act on different bodies. The two forces of a 3rd law pair always act on different bodies
svetoff [14.1K]

1. The two forces of a 3rd law pair always act on different bodies.

TRUE

SO above statement is TRUE because Newton's III law is valid for two different objects where one object will exert force and other body will exert reaction force on it.

2. Part F Given that two bodies interact via some force, the accelerations of these two bodies have the same magnitude but opposite directions. (Assume no other forces act on either body.)

FALSE

This is false because the force of action and Reaction is same on two different objects but for finding acceleration we need to divide the force by mass of two objects and since the mass of two bodies may be different so we can say that acceleration may be different.

3. Part G According to Newton's 3rd law, the force on the (smaller) moon due to the (larger) earth is

(i) greater in magnitude and antiparallel to the force on the earth due to the moon.

(ii) greater in magnitude and parallel to the force on the earth due to the moon.

(iii) equal in magnitude but antiparallel to the force on the earth due to the moon.

(iv) equal in magnitude and parallel to the force on the earth due to the moon.

(v) smaller in magnitude and antiparallel to the force on the earth due to the moon.

(vi) smaller in magnitude and parallel to the force on the earth due to the moon.

Since Earth and moon is an isolated system so here Newton's III law is valid due to which we can say that two forces are equal in magnitude but opposite in sign

so correct answer will be

equal in magnitude but antiparallel to the force on the earth due to the moon.

Help with 2 Physics questions, WILL CHOOSE BRAINLIEST

1) D

2) D.) Greater than \theta_c

Explanation:

1)

The phenomenon of total internal reflection occurs when a ray of light hitting the interface between two mediums is totally reflected back into the original medium, therefore no refraction into the second medium occurs.

This phenomenon occurs only if two conditions are satisfied:

  • The index of refraction of the first medium is larger than the index of refraction of the 2nd medium
  • The angle of incidence is greater than a certain angle called critical angle

In picture 1, we have 4 different diagrams. In the diagrams:

  • The red arrow represents the incident ray
  • The green arrow represents the refracted ray
  • The blue arrow represents the reflected ray

Total internal reflection occurs when there is no refraction, therefore when there is no green arrow: this occurs only in figure D, so this is the correct option. (in figure C, there is a refracted ray but it is parallel to the interface: this condition occurs when the angle of incidence is exactly equal to the critical angle, however in this problem, the angle of incidence is greater than the critical angle, so the correct option is D)

2)

As we stated in problem 1), total internal reflection occurs when the angle of incidence is equal or greater than the critical angle. Therefore in this case, the angle of incidence must be

D.) Greater than \theta_c

Astronomers observe two separate solar systems each consisting of a planet orbiting a sun. The two orbits are circular and have
Oxana [17]

Answer:

(D) 3

Explanation:

The angular momentum is given by:

\vec{L}=\vec{r}\ X \ \vec{p}

Thus, the magnitude of the angular momenta of both solar systems are given by:

L_1=Rm_1v_1=Rm_1(\omega R)=R^2m_1(\frac{2\pi}{T_1})=2\pi R^2\frac{m_1}{T_1}\\\\L_2=Rm_2v_2=2\pi R^2\frac{m_2}{T_2}

where we have taken that both systems has the same radius.

By taking into account that T1=3T2, we have

L_1=2\pi R^2\frac{m_1}{3T_2}=\frac{1}{3}2\pi R^2\frac{1}{T_2}m_1=\frac{1}{3}\frac{L_2}{m_2}m_1

but L1=L2=L:

L=\frac{1}{3}L\frac{m_1}{m_2}\\\\\frac{m_1}{m_2}=3

Hence, the answer is (D) 3

HOPE THIS HELPS!!
