ANSWER and EXPLANATION

We want to identify if there will be an electric field and a magnetic field around the two sticks electrified by charges of opposite signs.

An electric field is a physical field that surrounds electrically charged particles and exerts a force on other charged particles in the surrounding.

This implies that the presence of electric charges on both sticks generates electric fields on them. Since the two charges are opposite, the electric force acting on them will be attractive.

Hence, there is an electric field.

A stationary charged object produces an electric field, as explained above, but will only produce a magnetic field if there is a motion of the object.

Hence, except the two sticks are caused to move, there will be no magnetic field around them.

What does frequency mean in science
matrenka [14]

There's nothing mysterious about it at all. "Frequency" simply means
"often-ness" ... how often or how frequently something happens.

-- The frequency of traditional meals is 3 per day.
-- The frequency of an equinox is 2 per year.
-- The frequency of my sleeping really late is 1 per week.
-- The frequency of my intense desire to sleep late is 30 per month.
etc.

-- The standard unit of frequency in the SI system is "per second".
The special name for that unit is "Hertz".  (Hz)

A baseball pitcher throws a ball at 40 ms^-1. if the acceleration is approximately constant over a distance of 2 m, how large is
Reil [10]

We have the equation of motion v^2=u^2+2as, where v i the final velocity, u is the initial velocity, a is the acceleration and s is the displacement

Here final velocity, v = 40m/s

        Initial velocity, u = 0 m/s

        Displacement s = 2 m

Substituting 40^2=0^2+2*a*2\\ \\ a=400m/s^2

So the baseball pitcher accelerates at 400m/s^2 to release a ball at 40 m/s.

It takes Mars about ____ Earth years to orbit the Sun.
OlgaM077 [116]
<span>At this distance, and with an orbital speed of 24.077 km/s, Mars takes 686.971 Earth days, the equivalent of 1.88 Earth years, to complete a orbit around the Sun. This eccentricity is one of the most pronounced in the Solar System, with only Mercury having a greater one (0.205). 

686.971 rounds to 687

you went to move a 41 kg bookcase to a different place in the living room. if you push with a force of 65 N and the bookcase acc
ivann1987 [24]

Answer:

the force of friction = fk = (uk)n = 402(uk)

the net force acting to accelerate bookcase = ma = (41)(0.12) = 4.9 N

the {assumed horizontal} push force = 65 N

so

65 - fk = 4.9

fk = 65 - 4.9 = 60 N

uk = 60/402 = 0.15 <= ANS
