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.

A circuit is built based on the circuit diagram shown. What is the current in the 50 Ω resistor
In-s [12.5K]

Answer:

1.2 A

Explanation:

From the diagram attached, The three resistors are parallel because the each ends of the resistors are connected together. Since they are in parallel, the voltage across each resistor is the same. The voltage source connected in parallel to the resistors is 60 V. Therefore the voltage across the 50 Ω resistor is 60 V. Using ohm law:

Voltage (V) = Current (I) × Resistance (R)

V = IR

I = V/R

I = 60 V/ 50 Ω

I = 1.2 A

The current in the 50 Ω resistor is 1.2 A

Amiraneli [1.4K]

After the collision the magnitude of the momentum of the system is Mv

Given:

mass of 1st object = M

speed of 1st object = v

mass of 2nd object = M

speed of 2nd object = 0

To Find:

magnitude of the momentum after collision

Solution: Product of the mass of a particle and its velocity. Momentum is a vector quantity; i.e., it has both magnitude and direction. Isaac Newton's second law of motion states that the time rate of change of momentum is equal to the force acting on the particle.

Applying conservation of linear momentum

Mv + M(0) = 2MV

Mv = 2MV

V = v/2

So, after collision momentum is

p = 2MV = 2xMxv/2 = Mv

So, after collision momentum is Mv

Answer:

W_n_e_t=7.648512 \approx 7.6J

K.E=0.8J

v=0.7844645406 \approx 0.78m/s

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

Mass of pitcher   M= 2.6kg

Force on pitcher f=8.8N

Distance traveled 48cm=>0.48m

Coefficient of friction \mu=0.28

a)Generally frictional force is mathematically given by

F=\mu N

F=0.28*2.6*9.8

F=7.1344N

Generally work done on the pitcher is mathematically given as

W_n_e_t=W_f+W_F

W_f=8.8*0.48=>4.224N\\W_F=7.1344*0.48=>3.424512N

W_n_e_t=4.224-3.424512

W_n_e_t=0.799488\approx 0.8J

b)Generally K.E can be given mathematically as

K.E= W_n_e_t

Therefore

K.E=0.8J

c)Generally the equation for kinetic energy is mathematically represented by

K.E=1/2mv^2

0.8=1/2mv^2

Velocity as subject

v=\sqrt{\frac{K.E*2}{m} }

v=\sqrt{\frac{0.8*2}{2.6} }

v=0.7844645406 \approx 0.78m/s
