If you peel two strips of transparent tape off the same roll and immediately let them hang near each other, they will repel each

other. If you then stick the sticky side of one to the shiny side of the other and rip them apart, they will attract each other. Give a plausible explanation, involving transfer of electrons between the strips of tape, for this sequence of events.

Answer:

1.

Firstly removing off one strip and it leaves electrons behind, so the strip becomes positively charged.

2. The roll however is not negatively charged because it is "earthed " by the hand holding it, thus excess negatives repel each other away through the hand.

3.Tearing off the next strip and once more it leaves electrons behind, the new strip is also positively charged and will repel the first strip.

4. Then, tear two strips apart and one will leave electrons behind on the other. Meaning that one strip is positive and the other is negative and they will attract each other.

What will be the ME of a machine that produces a 240 N work with a 300
Elden [556K]

Answer:

Efficiency = 80%

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Work output = 240 N

Work Input = 300 N

To find the mechanical efficiency of a machine;

Efficiency = \frac {Out-put \; work}{In-put \; work} * 100

Substituting into the equation, we have;

Efficiency = \frac {240}{300} * 100

Efficiency = 0.8 * 100

Efficiency = 80%

Therefore, the mechanical efficiency of the machine is 80 percent.

How can you change your velocity
Anna11 [10]

You could change your velocity by altering both your speed and direction.

For example, if you are running north at 10 miles per hour, and turn into a street going east, then slow down to 5 miles per hour, you would have changed your velocity.

WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST PLEASE ANSWER ALL QUESTIONS
Rainbow [258]
There would be more - charges on the peanuts because they gain electrons which are represented with the - sign. There would also be more + on the cat to show that the cat’s fur is positively charged. The peanuts would be attracted to the cat because opposite charges attract.

As for explaining the first model, there should be the same amount of + and - charges on the peanuts as well as the cat to show that it is balanced and the peanuts are not attracted or repelled by the cat.

Water drips from the nozzle of a shower onto the floor 189 cm below. The drops fall at regular (equal) intervals of time, the fi
laiz [17]

Answer:

0.83999 m

0.20999 m

Explanation:

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s² = a

s = 189 cm

s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2\\\Rightarrow 1.89=0t+\frac{1}{2}\times 9.81\times t^2\\\Rightarrow t=\sqrt{\frac{1.89\times 2}{9.81}}\\\Rightarrow t=0.62074\ s

When the time intervals are equal, if four drops are falling then we have 3 time intervals.

So, the time interval is

t'=\dfrac{t}{3}\\\Rightarrow t'=\dfrac{0.62074}{3}\\\Rightarrow t'=0.206913\ s

For second drop time is given by

t''=2t'\\\Rightarrow t''=2\times 0.2069133\\\Rightarrow t''=0.4138266\ s

Distance from second drop

s=ut+\dfrac{1}{2}at^2\\\Rightarrow y''=ut''+\dfrac{1}{2}at''^2\\\Rightarrow s=0\times t+\dfrac{1}{2}\times 9.81\times 0.4138266^2\\\Rightarrow s=0.839993\ m

Distance from second drop is 0.83999 m

Distance from third drop

s=ut+\dfrac{1}{2}at^2\\\Rightarrow y''=ut'+\dfrac{1}{2}at'^2\\\Rightarrow s=0\times t+\dfrac{1}{2}\times 9.81\times 0.206913^2\\\Rightarrow s=0.20999\ m

Distance from third drop is 0.20999 m
