2) 
Explanation:
<h2><u>
Part 1:</u></h2>
<u></u>
The charged rod is held above the balloon and the weight of the balloon acts in downwards direction. To balance the weight of the balloon, the force on the balloon due to the rod must be directed along the upwards direction, which is only possible when the rod exerts an attractive force on the balloon and the electrostatic force on the balloon due to the rod is attractive when the polarities of the charge on the two are different.
Thus, In order for this to occur, the polarity of charge on the rod must be positive, i.e.,
is <u>positive.</u>

<h2><u>
Part 2:</u></h2>
<u></u>
<u>Given:</u>
- Mass of the balloon, m = 0.00275 kg.
- Charge on the balloon,

- Distance between the rod and the balloon, d = 0.0640 m.
- Acceleration due to gravity,

In order to balloon to be float in air, the weight of the balloom must be balanced with the electrostatic force on the balloon due to rod.
Weight of the balloon, 
The magnitude of the electrostatic force on the balloon due to the rod is given by

is the Coulomb's constant.
For the elecric force and the weight to be balanced,

Answer:
Second Choice.
Explanation:
Jack's Power = W/t
Jill's Power = 2W/(0.5)*t
2/0.5 = 4
Jill's Power = 4*W/t
Jill's Power is 4 times greater than Jack's
Second Choice
A mid ocean ridge is a under water mountain range, knowing this what would you say it is most similar to on land? hope this helped!
Answer:
C. 85%
Explanation:
A cylinder fitted with a piston exists in a high-pressure chamber (3 atm) with an initial volume of 1 L. If a sufficient quantity of a hydrocarbon material is combusted inside the cylinder to produce 1 kJ of energy, and if the volume of the chamber then increases to 1.5 L, what percent of the fuel's energy was lost to friction and heat?
A. 15%
B. 30%
C. 85%
D. 100%
work done by the system will be
W=PdV
p=pressure
dV=change in volume
3tam will be changed to N/m^2
3*1.01*10^5
W=3.03*10^5*(1.5-1)
convert 0.5L to m^3
5*10^-4
W=3.03*10^5*5*10^-4
W=152J
therefore
to find the percentage used
152/1000*100
15%
100%-15%
85% uf the fuel's energy was lost to friction and heat
