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.

5. What is the density of 4.5 mL of a liquid that has a mass of 1.3 grams?
antoniya [11.8K]

Answer:

A. 0.289g/mL

Explanation:

Using the equation for density which is d = m/v  or density = mass/volume, we input 1.3g/4.5mL and get 0.289g/mL.

vaieri [72.5K]

Answer:

27.1 m/s

Explanation:

Given that at a race car driving event, a staff member notices that the skid marks left by the race car are 9.06 m long. The very experienced staff member knows that the deceleration of a car when skidding is -40.52 m/s2.

Using third equation of motion,

V^2 = U^2 + 2aS

Since the car is decelerating, the final velocity V = 0

Substitute all the parameter into the equation above,

0 = U^2 - 2 * 40.52 * 9.06

U^2 = 734.22

U = \sqrt{734.22}

U = 27.096

U = 27.1 m/s  approximately

Therefore, the staff member can estimate for the original speed of the race car to be 27.1 m/s if it came to a stop during the skid
