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.

The process by which land remove surface materials is called
Citrus2011 [14]

Answer:

Deflation

Explanation:

The process by which wind removes surface materials is called deflation.

Deflation is a process by which wind erodes the Earth's exterior and the regions which experience severe erosion are called deflation zones.

deflation originates by the erosive force of a wind that removes the loosened area and this process is facilitated by a dry climate and a loss of vegetative cover that helps to lose the sediment.

deflation is common in the arid regions.

Recently, astronomers have observed stars and other objects that orbit the center of the Milky Way Galaxy farther out than our S
Lesechka [4]

Answer:

That scenario can be explained by the idea of the contribution of dark matter on that point.

Explanation:

It can be explained through the idea of dark matter, this one was born to explain why stars (or any object) that were farther for the supermassive black hole in the center of the Milky Way galaxy didn't decrease it rotational velocity as it was expected according to equation 1.

v = \sqrt{\frac{G M}{r}}  (1)

Where v is the rotational velocity, G is the gravitational constant, M is the mass of the supermassive black hole, and r is the orbital radius.

Notice, that If the distance increases the orbital speed decreases (inversely proportional).

If a cart goes around a turn at 20 km/h ,what remains constant
Vitek1552 [10]

Answer: 4.speed

Explanation:

In this case, we know that the cart remains at a constant 20km/h.

Now, one could say that "the velocity remains constant, because it always is 20km/h"

But remember that velocity is a vector, so this has a direction, and if the cart is going around a turn, then the direction of motion is changing, which tell us that there is acceleration.

But the module of the velocity, the speed, remains constant at 20km/h.

Then the correct option is 4, speed.

The platform height for Olympic divers is 10 m. A 60 kg diver steps off the platform to begin his dive.
azamat

Answer:

a) Ep = 5886[J]; b) v = 14[m/s]; c)   W = 5886[J]; d) F = 1763.4[N]

Explanation:

a)

The potential energy can be found using the following expression, we will take the ground level as the reference point where the potential energy is equal to zero.

E_{p} =m*g*h\\where:\\m = mass = 60[kg]\\g = gravity = 9.81[m/s^2]\\h = elevation = 10 [m]\\E_{p}=60*9.81*10\\E_{p}=5886[J]

b)

Since energy is conserved, that is, potential energy is transformed into kinetic energy, the moment the harpsichord touches water, all potential energy is transformed into kinetic energy.

E_{p} = E_{k} \\5886 =0.5*m*v^{2} \\v = \sqrt{\frac{5886}{0.5*60} }\\v = 14[m/s]

c)

The work is equal to

W = 5886 [J]

d)

We need to use the following equation and find the deceleration of the diver at the moment when he stops his velocity is zero.

v_{f} ^{2}= v_{o} ^{2}-2*a*d\\where:\\d = 2.5[m]\\v_{f}=0\\v_{o} =14[m/s]\\Therefore\\a = \frac{14^{2} }{2*2.5} \\a = 39.2[m/s^2]

By performing a sum of forces equal to the product of mass by acceleration (newton's second law), we can find the force that acts to reduce the speed of the diver to zero.

m*g - F = m*a

F = m*a - m*g

F = (60*39.2) - (60*9.81)

F = 1763.4 [N]
