Answer:
The process by which the balloon is attracted and possibly sticks to the wall is known as static electricity which is the attraction or repulsion between electric charges which are not free to move.
The wall is an insulator.
Explanation:
When a balloon is blown and tied off, and then the balloon is rubbed on the woolly object once in one direction, and the side that was rubbed against the wool is brought near a wall and then released, it is observed that the balloon is attracted to and sticks to the wall. The above observation is due to static electricity.
Static electricity refers to electric charges that are not free to move or that are static. One of the means of generating such charges is by friction. When the balloon is rubbed on the woollen material, electrons are given away to the balloon's surface. Since the balloon is an insulator (materials which do not allow electricity to pass through them easily), the electrons are not free to move. When the balloon is brought near to a wall, there is a rearrangement of the charges present on the wall. Negative charges on the wall move farther away while the positive charges on the wall are attracted to the electrons on the balloon's surface. Because the wall is also an insulator, the charges are not discharged immediately. Therefore, this attraction between opposite charges as well as the static nature of the charges results in the balloon sticking to the wall.
The force acting on the ball are unbalanced. Reactionary momentum force (that originated as a result of the swing of the bat) is the most powerful.
Yes friction is acting on the ball. In course of journey it would slow the ball down and make it trace a parabolic path rather than straight path as intended by hitter.
Explanation:
As the hitter hits the ball, momentum of the bat due to swing (mass of the bat*velocity provided by the batsman swinging action of bat) gets transferred on the ball on its impact with the bat.
Since ball’s mass is quite small as compared to the bat, the velocity of the ball increases by the same factor by which the ball’s mass is lower than the bat’s mass. This velocity causes forward motion of the ball (of course in the direction of bat’s motion, here the batsman intends to send the ball straight away hence the ball would move straight).
Various forces on ball is-
- Reactionary momentum force -bat’s force (most powerful force)
- The frictional force of the air (opposing the motion of the ball through the air)
- Gravity force (pulling the ball down to the Earth)
As a combined effect of these force when all the force remains unbalanced, the ball moves away in the straight path under the impact of bats momentum which was most powerful of all.
Frictional force and Gravity force continue acting on the ball. While frictional forces decrease the ball velocity through the air, gravity force pulls it down thus deflecting its direction. Under the combined impact of declining bats momentum, friction force and gravity force, the ball traces a parabolic path (in accordance with the first law of motion from Newton)
Answer:
Every object in space exerts a gravitational pull on every other
explanation : gravity influences the paths taken by everything traveling through space. It is the glue that holds together entire galaxies. It keeps planets in orbit. It can also cause life-destroying asteroids to crash into planets..
The angle of the wedge is 30°.
Answer:
5.88 ft/s
Explanation:
a) The block will slide down due to it's weight.
initial velocity u= 0
final velocity, v
acceleration, a = g sin 30° = 32 ft/s²× sin 30° = 16 ft/s²
Sliding displacement, s = 3ft
Use third equation of motion:

substitute the values and solve for v

b) Use conservation of momentum:
Initial momentum of the system = 0
final momentum = (15) ( 9.8)+ (25)(v')
v' = 5.88 ft/s
