Your clothing tends to cling together after going through the dryer. Why? Would you expect more or less clinging if all your clo

thing were made of the same material (say, cotton) than if you dried different kinds of clothing together? Again, why? (You may want to experiment with your next load of laundry.)

Answer and Explanation:

The clothing after spinning in the dryer cling together. This is because in the dryer they are rubbed against each other and due to this rubbing, electrons are transferred from one to the other clothes and acquire charge as a result of charging by friction thus producing static electricity.

As the material of the clothes in the dryer is different, clinging will be more.

The sticking of these clothes together is known as Static cling.

In case, the clothing are of same material, the static electricity produced as a result of frictional charging would be less and hence less static cling would occur.

A school bus has a mass of 18,200 kg. The bus moves at 13.5 m/s. How fast must a 0.142-kg baseball move in order to have the sam
nikitadnepr [17]

Answer:

bus momentum

p_bus= m_bus x v_bus

=18,200 x 16.5

basball momentum

pball=mball x vball

=0.142 x v

p_bus = pball

18200 x 16.5 = 0.142 x v

v=(18200 x 16.5)/0.142

v is the answer for baseball

A charge q1 of -5.00 x 10^-9 C and a charge q2 of -2.00x 10^-9 C are separated by a distance of 40.0 cm. Find the equilibrium po
aleksandrvk [35]

Answer:

Explanation:

Let the equilibrium position of third charge be x distance from q₁.

Force on third charge due to q₁

= 9 x 10⁹ x 5 x 10⁻⁹ x 15 x 10⁺⁹ / x²

Force on third charge due to q₂

= 9 x 10⁹ x 2 x 10⁻⁹ x 15 x 10⁺⁹ /( .40-x)²

Both the force will act in opposite direction and for balancing , they should be equal.

9 x 10⁹ x 5 x 10⁻⁹ x 15 x 10⁺⁹ / x² = 9 x 10⁹ x 2 x 10⁻⁹ x 15 x 10⁺⁹ /( .40-x)²

5  / x² = 2 / ( .4 - x )²

Taking square root on both sides

2.236 / x = 1.414 / .4 - x

2.236 ( .4 - x ) = 1.414 x

.8944 - 2.236 x = 1.414 x

.8944 = 3.65 x

x = .245 m

24.5 cm

So the third charge should be at a distance of 24.5 cm from q₁ .

Suppose you have a rock that, when it solidifies, contains 1 microgram of a radioactive isotope. How much of this isotope remain
algol13

Answer:

d) 1/32 microgram

Explanation:

First half life is the time at which the concentration of the reactant reduced to half.

Second half reaction is the time at which the remaining concentration reduced to half or the initial concentration reduced to 1/4.

Third half life is the time at which the remaining concentration reduced to half or the initial concentration reduced to 1/8.

Forth half life is the time at which the remaining concentration reduced to half or the initial concentration reduced to 1/16.

Fifth half life is the time at which the remaining concentration reduced to half or the initial concentration reduced to 1/32.

The initial mass of the sample = 1 microgram

After 5 half-lives, the mass should reduce to 1/32 of the original.

So the concentration left = 1/32 of 1 microgram = 1/32 microgram

How is the atmospheric pressure detected.<br>plsss help...​
andrezito [222]

Answer:

Atmospheric pressure is commonly measured with a barometer. In a barometer, a column of mercury in a glass tube rises or falls as the weight of the atmosphere changes. Meteorologists describe the atmospheric pressure by how high the mercury rises.
