How do you determine if a charged comb is positively charged or negatively charged. Suppose it is positively charged, it will at

tract negative charge on the electroscope and the positive charges on the leaves will repel. If it is negatively charged, it will attract positive charge leaving the negative leaves to repel

Generally, whenever an object is charged via friction, such as in the case of a comb, it gathers a negative charge because the rubbing brings forth electrons. If the charge is induced using another already charged object, then the charge is positive. If it is positively charged, it will attract the negative charge and cause the leaves to repel.

Name three ways that scientists can ensure their results are reliable.
liberstina [14]

Observations and Data are FACTS. Scientists use observations and data to draw a conclusion. Observations lead to the recording of data. Scientists ask questions about their observations and then collect data to answer their questions, then they have their evidence. Opinions are not facts, they are simply beliefs or value judgements. Then the scientist should repeat the experiment the results from different scientists should be similar- if the results are not similar and consistent then the experiment must be done again. <span>

Two train whistles have identical frequencies of 1.85 102 Hz. When one train is at rest in the station and the other is moving n
Makovka662 [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

frequency of whistle = 1.85 x 10² = 185 Hz

frequency of beat heard = 8 beat /s . No of beat produced is equal to difference of frequencies of two sound source . Here difference is created due to Doppler effect . One of the train is moving so it will have apparent frequency which is different one from its original frequency .

When the moving train is approaching the observer , its frequency will be higher . As beat is heard at the rate of 8 beats / s , apparent frequency of approaching train will be 185 + 8 = 193 Hz .

Applying Doppler's formula of apparent frequency ,

193 = 185 x V / ( V - v ) , where V is velocity of sound and v is velocity of train .

193 V - 193 v = 185 V

193 v = 8 V

v = 8 x V / 193

= 8 x 343 / 193

= 14.21 m /s

Second possibility is that apparent velocity is less ie 185 - 8 = 177 Hz

In that case moving train will be moving away from observer . If its velocity be v

177 = 185 x V / ( V + v )

177 V + 177 v = 185 V

v = 8 x 343 / 177

= 15.50 m /s .
