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.

What travels faster than anything anything else in the universe?
cluponka [151]

Answer:

The announcement he had made promised to overturn our understanding of the Universe. If the data gathered by 160 scientists working on the project were correct, the unthinkable had been observed. Particles – in this case, neutrinos – had travelled faster than light.

At a picnic, there is a contest in which hoses are used to shoot water at a beach ball from three different directions. As a res
hram777 [196]

Answer:

F₃ = 122.88 N

θ₃ = 20.63°

Explanation:

First we find the components of F₁:

For x-component:

F₁ₓ = F₁ Cos θ₁

F₁ₓ = (50 N) Cos 60°

F₁ₓ = 25 N

For y-component:

F₁y = F₁ Sin θ₁

F₁y = (50 N) Sin 60°

F₁y = 43.3 N

Now, for F₂. As, F₂ acts along x-axis. Therefore, its y-component will be zero and its x-xomponent will be equal to the magnitude of force itself:

F₂ₓ = F₂ = 90 N

F₂y = 0 N

Now, for the resultant force on ball to be zero, the sum of x-components of the forces and the sum of the y-component of the forces must also be equal to zero:

F₁ₓ + F₂ₓ + F₃ₓ = 0 N

25 N + 90 N + F₃ₓ = 0 N

F₃ₓ = - 115 N

for y-components:

F₁y + F₂y + F₃y = 0 N

43.3 N + 0 N + F₃y = 0 N

F₃y = - 43.3 N

Now, the magnitude of F₃ can be found as:

F₃ = √F₃ₓ² + F₃y²

F₃ = √[(- 115 N)² + (- 43.3 N)²]

<u>F₃ = 122.88 N</u>

and the direction is given as:

θ₃ = tan⁻¹(F₃y/F₃ₓ) = tan⁻¹(-43.3 N/-115 N)

<u>θ₃ = 20.63°</u>

A 0.49-kg cord is stretched between two supports, 7.8m apart. When one support is struck by a hammer, a transverse wave travels
katovenus [111]

To solve this problem we will apply the laws of Mersenne. Mersenne's laws are laws describing the frequency of oscillation of a stretched string or monochord, useful in musical tuning and musical instrument construction. This law tells us that the velocity in a string is directly proportional to the root of the applied tension, and inversely proportional to the root of the linear density, that is,

v = \sqrt{\frac{T}{\mu}}

Here,

v = Velocity

\mu= Linear density (Mass per  unit length)

T = Tension

Rearranging to find the Period we have that

T = v^2 \mu

T = v^2 (\frac{m}{L})

As we know that speed is equivalent to displacement in a unit of time, we will have to

T = (\frac{L}{t}) ^2(\frac{m}{L})

T = (\frac{7.8}{0.83})^2 (\frac{0.49}{7.8})

T = 5.54N

Therefore the tension is 5.54N
