Answer:

The positively charged ball moves between both charged plates till the plates and the ball all become neutral.

Check Explanation for more.

Explanation:

Let the ball be in square brackets, and the plates in normal brackets.

(+) [+] (-)

From the law that like charges repel and unlike charges attract.

The positive ball would go first to the negatively charged plate. After which, the ball would hold more negative charges overall than before.

Because the ball is now more negatively charged, it then travels towards the positive plate. In the same manner, the ball would transfer negative electrons to the positive plate.

So, when leaving the positive plate, the ball would be more positive and be drawn towards the negative plate once more. In doing so, it would make the negative plate more positive.

Then, the ball again holds more negative electrons and is drawn towards the positive plate once more.

This back and forth process continues until the once-positive and once-negative plates become neutral, that is, they are discharged.

The ball hanging on the insulated thread becomes neutral too at this point.

Using the criteria you described in your previous answer, how would you compare solar power to fossil fuel power?

Scilla [17]

Solar power differ to fossil fuel power in that solar power is a much more optimal resource than fossil fuels

Solar power; however provides much more energy than fossil fuel power
Interestingly too, solar power resource can be used without releasing greenhouse gases compared to fossil fuels power
Infact, solar energy is the most reliable

<h3>What is renewable energy?</h3>

Renewable energy simply refers to energy that is not depleted when used. An example of such is solar power.

So therefore, solar power differ to fossil fuel power in that solar power is a much more optimal resource than fossil fuels

Suppose you fill two rubber balloons with air, suspend both of them from the same point, and let them hang down on strings of eq

andrew-mc [135]

The force on each balloon is 2×10^−3 N.

Consider two balloons of diameter 0.200m each with a mass of 1.00g hanging apart with 0.0500m separation on the ends of string making angles of 10.0° with the vertical.

$\sum F_{y} = Tcos10\textdegree - mg = 0\\\\T = \frac{mg}{cos10\textdegree } \\\\\sum F_{y} = Tsin10\textdegree - mg = 0\\$

So,

$F_{e} = \frac{mg}{cos10\textdegree }sin10\textdegree = mgtan10\textdegree \\\\= (0.00100kg)(9.8m/s^{2})tan10\textdegree \\\\F_{e} = 2 \times 10^{-3}N$

A force is an influence that can change the motion of an object. A force can cause an object with mass to change its velocity (e.g. moving from a state of rest), i.e., to accelerate. Force can also be described intuitively as a push or a pull. A force has both magnitude and direction, making it a vector quantity. It is measured in the SI unit of newton (N).

Determine the number of ways to throw two die and get the number 11, as well as the probability of getting 11.

Ivenika [448]

Answer:

1/18

Explanation:

The number of ways in which two die can be thrown is the sample space of the experiment

(1,1), (1,2) (1,3), (1,4) (1,5) (1,6)

(2,1), (2,2) (2,3), (2,4) (2,5) (2,6)

(3,1), (3,2) (3,3), (3,4) (3,5) (3,6)

(4,1), (4,2) (4,3), (4,4) (4,5) (4,6)

(5,1), (5,2) (5,3), (5,4) (5,5) (5,6)

(6,1), (6,2) (6,3), (6,4) (6,5) (6,6)

From here it can be seen that there are only two cases where the sum on the two die is 11 i.e., (6,5) and (5,6)

$\text{Probability of getting 11}=\frac{\text{Number of favorable outcomes}}{\text{Total number of outcomes}}\\\Rightarrow \text{Probability of getting 11}=\frac{2}{36}\\\Rightarrow \text{Probability of getting 11}=\frac{1}{18}=0.056$

∴ Probability of getting 11 is<u> 1/18</u>
