g Two identical metal spheres (small enough to be treated as particles) each with a mass of 3.1 × 10−3 kg are hung from separate

identical strings. The strings are 0.70 m long and are attached to the same nail in the ceiling. Surplus electrons are added to each sphere, and then the spheres are brought in contact with each other and released. Their equilibrium position is such that each string makes an angle of 15.0° with the vertical. How many surplus electrons are on each sphere?

Answer:

Explanation:

Let q be the charges on each spheres , 2d be the   distance between them in equilibrium , T be tension in the string and F be the force of repulsion between them

F = k q² /4d²

For equilibrium

T sin15 = F

T cos 15 = mg

tan15 = F / mg

F = mg tan15

k q² /4d² = mg tan15

k q² = 4d² x mg tan15

= 4 x( .7 sin15)² x 3.1 x 10⁻³ x 9.8 x .2679

= 1.068 x 10⁻³

q = .3444 x 10⁻⁶ C

no of electrons

=  .3444 x 10⁻⁶  / 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹

= 215.25 x 10¹⁰

A 45-gram object that has a volume of 9 mL has a density of
yanalaym [24]

Answer:

<h2>  The answer is </h2><h2>a. 5g/mL</h2>

Explanation:

Given data

mass m= 45g

volume v= 9mL

we know that density=m/v

substituting our given data we have

density=\frac{45}{9} =5g/mL

What is Density?

The Density of a body can be defined as the ratio of mass to volume,

or

Density, mass of a unit volume of a material substance. The formula for density is Density= \frac{mass}{volume},

where d is density,

M is mass, and

V is volume.

Density is commonly expressed in units of grams per cubic centimetre.

Which statements about a neutral atom are correct? Select all that apply. (1) A neutral atom is composed of both positively and
Bad White [126]

Answer:

(3) The electrons are attracted to the positively charged nucleus.

(4) Positively charged protons are located in the tiny, massive nucleus.

(6) The negatively charged electrons are spread out in a "cloud" around the nucleus.

Explanation:

An atom is the basic particle in which a matter is formed. It can either be charged or neutral. When it losses or gains an extra electron, it becomes charged, an ion. While a neutral atom is an atom which has no charge, because it has the same number of electrons and protons. The protons are located in the tiny massive nucleus of the atom, while the electrons are in orbits or cloud around the nucleus.
