As per the question the uncharged pith ball is taken towards the electrostatic field of a charged rod.
It is told that the side of the pith ball is closest to the negatively charged end of the rod .
The pith ball was initially neutral.The electrons in the atom were oriented in their respective orbits.
Whenever it is taken towards the negative end of the rod,the electrons present in the ball will not stick to their orbit .Basically the closest electrons will suffer electrostatic repulsive force and will come out their orbits.They will move towards the other end of the pith ball.Hence the closest side of the pith ball will acquire positive charges and other side will be negative.
The bound charges nearest to the charged rod is called induced positive charges and bound negative charges present at the other end are called free bound charges.The induced charges and free charges are equal in amount.Hence the pith ball is neutral.
Hence from above we see that only option B is right.
The rapid motion and collisions of molecules with the walls of the container causes pressure (force on a unit area). Pressure is proportional to the number of molecular collisions and the force of the collisions in a particular area. The more collisions of gas molecules with the walls, the higher the pressure.
I hope this helps you.
Answer:
displacement = 2 m west
Explanation:
The displacement of an object is a vector connecting the final point of the motion of the object to the initial point, and its magnitude is equal to the length of the vector. So the magnitude of the displacement is basically the distance (measured in a straight line) between the final point and the starting point.
In this problem, we have:
- initial position of the acorn: 0 m
- final position of the acorn: 2 m west
So, the displacement has a magnitude of
d = 2 m - 0 m = 2 m
And the direction is west, since the final position is west compared to the initial position.
Answer:
The correct option is;
Technician A
Explanation:
Here we note failure analysis will assist in determining the cause of failure and as such to determine the cost effectiveness of a repair or a replacement.
However, a warranty is a legal contract between the buyer of the engine and the manufacturer for the manufacturer to either repair the engine or compensate the the customer for all failures that occur within the period of the warranty. Therefore, technician B is not correct as he says the manufacturer may request the engine for analysis on why it failed which is not the same as the basis of a warranty.
Answer: v = 20 m/s
Explanation: Solution:
Use the formula of Kinetic Energy and derive for v:
KE = 1/2 mv²
To find v:
v = √ 2 KE / m
= √ 2 ( 100000 J ) / 500 kg
= √ 400 m/s
= 20 m/s
