A glass rod that has been charged to +12.0 nC touches a metal sphere. Afterward, the rod's charge is +8.0 nC. a) What kind of ch

arged particle was transferred between the rod and the sphere and in which direction? That is, did it move from rod to the sphere or from sphere to the rod? b) How many charged particles were transferred?

Answer:

Explanation:

charge transferred to sphere = 12 - 8 = 4 nC

a )

The positive charge is decreased on glass rod , that means electrons must have entered the glass rod from the sphere which reduces its positive charge.

b )

charge transferred = 4 nC = 4 x 10⁻⁹ C

charge on one electron = 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ C

No of electrons transferred

= Total charge transferred / charge on one electron

= 4 x 10⁻⁹ / 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹

= 2.5 x 10¹⁰ .

Digiron [165]

Answer:

Conductivity probe

Explanation:

The Conductivity Probe consists of two electrodes(also referred to as probes)or an electrode and a wall vessel where the material in the vessel completes the circuit as the level rises in the vessel.

It is used in measuring solution conductivity or total ionic concentration of aqueous samples.

A satellite orbits earth with a mean altitude of 361 km. If the orbit is circular, what are the satellite's time period and spee
Advocard [28]

Answer:

v = 7.69 x 10³ m/s = 7690 m/s

T = 5500 s = 91.67 min = 1.53 h

Explanation:

In order for the satellite to orbit the earth, the force of gravitation on satellite must be equal to the centripetal force acting on it:

F_{gravitation}= F_{centripetal}\\\\\frac{GM_{s} M_{E}}{r^2}  = \frac{M_{s} v^2}{r}\\\\\frac{GM_{E}}{r} = v^2\\\\v = \sqrt{\frac{GM_{E}}{r} } \\\\

where,

G = Universal Gravitational Constant = 6.67 x 10⁻¹¹ N.m²/kg²

Me = Mass of Earth = 5.97 x 10²⁴ kg

r = distance between the center of Earth and Satellite = Radius of Earth + Altitude = 6.371 x 10⁶ m + 0.361 x 10⁶ m = 6.732 x 10⁶ m

v = orbital speed = ?

Therefore,

v = \sqrt{\frac{(6.67 x 10^{-11}N.m^2/kg^2)(5.97 x 10^{24} kg)}{6.732 x 10^6 m} }\\\\

<u>v = 7.69 x 10³ m/s</u>

For time period satellite completes one revolution around the earth. It means that the distance covered by satellite is equal to circumference of circle at the given altitude.

So, its orbital speed can be given as:

v = \frac{Circumference of Circle at Given Altitude}{T}\\\\v =  \frac{2\pi r}{T}\\\\

where,

T = Time Period of Satellite = ?

Therefore,

T = \frac{2\pi r}{v}\\\\T = \frac{(2\pi )(6.732 x 10^6 m}{7.69 x 10^3 m/s}\\\\

<u>T = 5500 s = 91.67 min = 1.53 h</u>

A person throws a pumpkin at a horizontal speed of 4.0 — off a cliff. The pumpkin travels 9.5 m horizontally
emmainna [20.7K]

Complete Question

A person throws a pumpkin at a horizontal speed of   4.0 m/s off a cliff. The pumpkin travels 9.5m horizontally before it hits the ground. We can ignore air resistance.What is the pumpkin's vertical displacement during the throw? What is the pumpkin's vertical velocity when it hits the ground?

Answer:

The  pumpkin's vertical displacement  is  H = 27 .67 \ m

The  pumpkin's vertical velocity when it hits the ground is  v_v__{f}} = 23.298 \  m/s

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The  horizontal speed is  v_h  =  4 m/s

    The horizontal distance traveled is  d =  9.5 \ m

The horizontal distance traveled is mathematically represented as

           S =  v_h * t

Where t is the time taken

substituting values

          9.5 =  4 * t

   =>     t =  \frac{9.5}{4}

            t = 2.38 \ sec

Now the vertical displacement is mathematically represented as

        H  =  v_v t  +  \frac{1}{2} a_v t^2

now the vertical velocity before the throw is  zero

    So

          H =  0 +  \frac{1}{2} (9.8) * (2.375)^2

          H = 27 .67 \ m

Now the final vertical velocity  is mathematically represented as

          v_v__{f}} =  v_v + at

  substituting values

             v_v__{f}} =  0 + (9.8)* (2.375)

            v_v__{f}} = 23.298 \  m/s
