Answer:
a. The spheres will attract each other.
Explanation:
When two conducting spheres are connected by a conducting wire and a negatively charged rod is brought near it then this will induce opposite (positive) charge at the nearest point on the sphere and by the conservation of charges there will also be equal amount of negative charge on the farthest end of this conducting system this is called induced polarization.
- When the conducting wire which joins them is cut while the charged rod is still in proximity to of one of the metallic sphere then there will be physical separation of the two equal and unlike charges on the spheres which will not get any path to flow back and neutralize.
- Hence the two spheres will experience some amount of electrostatic force between them.
As per kinematics equation we are given that

now we are given that
a = 2.55 m/s^2


now we need to find x
from above equation we have



so it will cover a distance of 93.2 m
Answer:
4.37 * 10^-4 J
Explanation:
Energy stored :
mgΔl / 2
m = mass = 10kg ; g = 9.8m/s² ; r = cross sectional Radius = 1cm = 1 * 10-2 m
Δl = mgl / πr²Y
Y = Youngs modulus = Y=3.5 ×10^10 ; l = Length = 1m
Δl = (10 * 9.8 * 1) / π * (1 * 10^-2)²* 3.5 ×10^10
Δl = 98 / 3.5 * π * 10^6
Δl = 0.00000891267
Energy stored :
mgΔl / 2
(10 * 9.8 * 0.00000891267) / 2
= 0.00043672083 J
4.37 * 10^-4 J
