If you rub an inflated balloon against your hair and place it against a door, by what mechanism does it stick? explain.

1 answer:

8 0

When you rub inflated balloon with your hair or your kitten's fur, charge is induced on all over the balloon's surface. This is called "charging by friction" because you developed charges by rubbing to bodies with each other. It will also stick on your wall you can check it out. This is because of "unlike charges attract each other". Rubbed balloon and wall possessed unlike charges which made them stick together.

A ball is attached to a string of length 3 m to make a pendulum. The pendulum is placed at a location that is away from the Eart

Musya8 [376]

1) $0.61 m/s^2$

2) 13.9 s

Explanation:

The acceleration due to gravity is the acceleration that an object in free fall (acted upon the force of gravity only) would have.

It can be calculated using the equation:

$g=\frac{GM}{r^2}$ (1)

where

G is the gravitational constant

$M=5.98\cdot 10^{24} kg$ is the Earth's mass

r is the distance of the object from the Earth's center

The pendulum in the problem is at an altitude of 3 times the radius of the Earth (R), so its distance from the Earth's center is

$r=4R$

where

$R=6.37\cdot 10^6 m$ is the Earth's radius

Therefore, we can calculate the acceleration due to gravity at that height using eq.(1):

$g=\frac{GM}{(4R)^2}=\frac{(6.67\cdot 10^{-11})(5.98\cdot 10^{24})0.}{(4\cdot 6.37\cdot 10^6)^2}=0.61 m/s^2$

The period of a simple pendulum is the time the pendulum takes to complete one oscillation. It is given by the formula

$T=2\pi \sqrt{\frac{L}{g}}$

where

L is the length of the pendulum

g is the acceleration due to gravity at the location of the pendulum

Note that the period of a pendulum does not depend on its mass.

For the pendulum in this problem, we have:

L = 3 m is its length

$g=0.61 m/s^2$ is the acceleration due to gravity (calculated in part 1)

Therefore, the period of the pendulum is:

$T=2\pi \sqrt{\frac{3}{0.61}}=13.9 s$

If kinetic energy of a body is decreased by 10percent then decrease in linear momentum of that body

algol [13]

Answer:

E = 1/2 M V^2 = 1/2 P V since P = M V

E2 / E1 = P2 V2 / (P1 V1)

P2 / P1 = E2 V1 / (E1 V2) = V2^2 V1 / (V1^2 V2) = V2 / V1

E2 / E1 = V2^2 / V1^2

V2 / V1 = (E2 / E1)^1/2

V2 / V1 = (.9)1/2 = .95

The linear momentum would have to decrease by 5%

The density of this material is 2 g/cm3 there are 24 cm3 find the total mass

Fynjy0 [20]

Answer:

<h2>The answer is 48 g</h2>

Explanation:

The mass of a substance when given the density and volume can be found by using the formula

mass = Density × volume

From the question we have

mass = 2 × 24

We have the final answer as
