<span>I believe this happens because when you rub the balloon on the carpet or fabric, the connection or contact of that jumbles up the atoms and they receive the energy which makes your hair as the question said 'stand on end' </span>

Two conducting spheres are mounted on insulating rods. They both carry some initial electric charge, and are far from any other
natka813 [3]

The question is incomplete. The complete question is :

Two conducting spheres are mounted on insulating rods. They both carry some initial electric charge, and are far from any other charge. Their charges are measured. Then, the spheres are allowed to briefly touch, and the charge in one of them (sphere A) is measured again. These are the measured values:

 a). Before contact:

Sphere A = 4.8 nC

Sphere B = 0 nC

What is the charge on sphere B after contact, in nC?

b). Before contact:

Sphere A = 2.9 nC

Sphere B = -4.4 nC

What is the charge on sphere B after contact, in nC?

Solution :

It is given that there are two spheres that are conducting and are mounted on an insulating rods which carry a initial charge and they are briefly touched and then one of the charge is measured.

Here the charge becomes divided when  both the spheres are connected and then removed.

a). charge after they are charged

   $Q = \frac{q_1+q_2}{2}$

    $Q = \frac{4.8+0}{2}$

      = 2.4 nC

b). The charge is

    $Q = \frac{q_1-q_2}{2}$

    $Q = \frac{2.9-4.4}{2}$

      = -0.75 nC

A rock is thrown vertically upward from some height above the ground. It rises to some maximum height and falls back to the grou
True [87]

Answer:

At the highest point the velocity is zero, the acceleration is directed downward.

Explanation:

This is a free-fall problem, in the case of something being thrown or dropped, the acceleration is equal to -gravity, so -9.80m/s^2. So, the acceleration is never 0 here.

I attached an image from my lecture today, I find it to be helpful. You can see that because of gravity the acceleration is pulled downwards.

At the highest point the velocity is 0, but it's changing direction and that's why there's still an acceleration there.

In the previous part, you determined the maximum angle that still allows the crate to remain at rest. If the coefficient of fric
lorasvet [3.4K]

Answer:

B. The maximum angle decreases

Explanation:

If θ be the maximum angle of a slope that allows a crate placed on it to remain at rest , following condition exists .

tanθ = μ , θ is called angle of repose . μ is coefficient of static friction .

So the tan of angle of repose θ is proportional to coefficient of static friction.

If coefficient of static friction is less than .7 , naturally angle of repose will also become less ,ie,  it at lower angle of inclination , the object will start slipping .
