When a balloon is rubbed with human hair, the balloon acquires an excess static charge. This implies that some materials can give up electrons more readily than others.

Answer: Option C

<u>Explanation:</u>

We know that charges can neither be created nor be destroyed by law of conservation of charges. So when we rub two objects, it is natural to have a transfer of charges. But the charges which get transferred may be negligible in most of the cases leading to no significant observations.

But for some materials, like when we rubbed a balloon with human hair, we observed clouding of excess static charge on the balloon surface. This indicates that hair can easily give up electrons to balloon leading to clouding of excess static charge on it.

How does the particle model indicate positive acceleration and how does it indicate negative acceleration? An example of particl
MrMuchimi

Answer:

Explanation:

The diagram has a fairly simple explanation. In the top diagram, the space between the particle is increasing. That means that acceleration is increasing. The bottom diagram shows just the opposite. The particle starts off making large "distances" between where the particle is recorded and then the distances between recordings lessens and the particle is slowing down.

Rule: the greater the "distance" between dot positions, the greater the acceleration, because the speed is large.

Top diagram: increasing distance between dots = larger speed. The distance becomes greater as the particle moves to the right.

Bottom diagram: starts off large and decreases as we move from left to right  = - acceleration.

a car moving at 5 m/s accelerates at a rate of 10 m/s2 for 25 seconds. How far does it move during this time?
Alexus [3.1K]

Answer:

t is time in s For example, a car accelerates in 5 s from 25 m/s to 3 5m/s. Its velocity changes by 35 - 25 = 10 m/s. Therefore its acceleration is 10 ÷ 5 = 2 m/s2

A ball is dropped from rest from the top of a building of height h. At the same instant, a second ball is projected vertically u
uranmaximum [27]

Answer:

a) t = \sqrt{\frac{h}{2g}}

b) Ball 1 has a greater speed than ball 2 when they are passing.

c) The height is the same for both balls = 3h/4.

Explanation:

a) We can find the time when the two balls meet by equating the distances as follows:

y = y_{0_{1}} + v_{0_{1}}t - \frac{1}{2}gt^{2}  

Where:

y_{0_{1}}: is the initial height = h

v_{0_{1}}: is the initial speed of ball 1 = 0 (it is dropped from rest)

y = h - \frac{1}{2}gt^{2}     (1)

Now, for ball 2 we have:

y = y_{0_{2}} + v_{0_{2}}t - \frac{1}{2}gt^{2}    

Where:

y_{0_{2}}: is the initial height of ball 2 = 0

y = v_{0_{2}}t - \frac{1}{2}gt^{2}    (2)

By equating equation (1) and (2) we have:

h - \frac{1}{2}gt^{2} = v_{0_{2}}t - \frac{1}{2}gt^{2}

t=\frac{h}{v_{0_{2}}}

Where the initial velocity of the ball 2 is:

v_{f_{2}}^{2} = v_{0_{2}}^{2} - 2gh

Since v_{f_{2}}^{2} = 0 at the maximum height (h):

v_{0_{2}} = \sqrt{2gh}

Hence, the time when they pass each other is:

t = \frac{h}{\sqrt{2gh}} = \sqrt{\frac{h}{2g}}

b) When they are passing the speed of each one is:

For ball 1:

v_{f_{1}} = - gt = -g*\sqrt{\frac{h}{2g}} = - 0.71\sqrt{gh}

The minus sign is because ball 1 is going down.

For ball 2:

v_{f_{2}} = v_{0_{2}} - gt = \sqrt{2gh} - g*\sqrt{\frac{h}{2g}} = (\sqrt{1} - \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}})*\sqrt{gh} = 0.41\sqrt{gh}

Therefore, taking the magnitude of ball 1 we can see that it has a greater speed than ball 2 when they are passing.

c) The height of the ball is:

For ball 1:

y_{1} = h - \frac{1}{2}gt^{2} = h - \frac{1}{2}g(\sqrt{\frac{h}{2g}})^{2} = \frac{3}{4}h

For ball 2:

y_{2} = v_{0_{2}}t - \frac{1}{2}gt^{2} = \sqrt{2gh}*\sqrt{\frac{h}{2g}} - \frac{1}{2}g(\sqrt{\frac{h}{2g}})^{2} = \frac{3}{4}h

Then, when they are passing the height is the same for both = 3h/4.

I hope it helps you!

A car tire rotates with an average angular speed of 32 rad/s. In what time interval will the tire rotate 3.5 times? Answer in un
stiks02 [169]

Answer:

\Delta t = 0.687\ s

Explanation:

given,

Angular speed of the tire = 32 rad/s

Displacement of the wheel = 3.5 rev

Δ θ = 3.5 x 2 π

        = 7 π rad

now,

Time interval of the car to rotate 7π rad

using equation

\omega_{avg} =\dfrac{\Delta \theta}{\Delta t}

\Delta t=\dfrac{7\pi}{32}

\Delta t = 0.687\ s

Time taken to rotate 3.5 times is equal to 0.687 s.
