A neutral metal comb is held near an object with a negative charge. What happens to the comb?

Physics
1 answer:
mixas84 [53]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Neutral comb is charged through induction.

Explanation:

The local charging of the comb is caused because of induction. The electron is pushed in the comb to the away side of the charged particle because of the negative charge which makes the close part positively charge.

Then after that when the observer move the comb away from the charge then the electron of the comb is redistributed.

The size of a balloon increases when the pressure inside it increases. The balloon gets bigger when it is left in the heat from
Masteriza [31]

Explanation:

This happens because the gas inside tend to expand because its temperature gets higher.

This is why the balloon that is put in a freezer for too long tend to gets smaller, because the gas temperature that is inside the balloon decreases.

(you can try it at home)

It is related to the temperature of the gas.

Alan leaves Los Angeles at 8:00 a.m. to drive to San Francisco, 400 mi away. He travels at a steady 45.0 mph . Beth leaves Los A
WARRIOR [948]

Answer:

a.Beth

b.2232 s

Explanation:

We are given that

Distance,d=400 mi

Speed of Alan,v=45 mph

Speed of Beth,v'=55 mph

a.Time =\frac{distance}{speed}

Using the formula

Time taken by Alan=\frac{400}{45}=8.89 hr

Time taken by Beth=\frac{400}{55}=7.27hr

Alan will reach San Francisco at 4:53 PM

Beth will reach San Francisco at 4:16 PM

Beth will reach before Alan.

b.Difference between time=8.89-7.27=1.62 hr

t=1.62 hr

1.62-1=0.62 hr

0.62 hr=0.62\times 60\times 60=2232 s

Hence, Beth has to wait 2232 s for Alan to arrive .

(a) that the acceleration (A) will have no components that are identically zero. (B) may have some components that are identical
umka21 [38]

Answer:

D.

Explanation:

acceleration in the z component = velocity in z component / time. The question states velocity in z component is zero. Therefore, acceleration in z component = 0/time = 0.

Now the question does not specify whether the other velocity vectors (x or y) is zero or not. So its D.

11) Which statement about covalent bonds is true? A) Covalent bonds are generally weaker than ionic bonds because they form full
Cerrena [4.2K]
<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

C) Covalent bonds are generally weaker than ionic bonds because they overlap electrons to fill their outer shell.

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
  • <em><u>Covalent bond is a type of bond that results from the sharing of electrons between two non-metal atoms. </u></em>
  • <em><u>Ionic bond on the other is a type of bond that results from the transfer of electrons between metal atoms and non metal atoms, where a metal atom looses electrons and a non-metal atom gains electrons.</u></em>
  • <em><u>The amount of energy required to break an given bond determines how strong a particular bond is.</u></em> Ionic bonds require more energy to break as compared to covalent bond and therefore they are stronger than the covalent bonds.
