Why do (either positively or negatively) charged balloons (an insulator) hang on a wall (which is also an insulator) if the wall

is neutral?
Physics
1 answer:
ser-zykov [4K]4 years ago
4 0

Answer:

When a charged balloon is brought near a wall which is neutral, it still sticks to the wall because the charged balloon induces the charge in the neutral body.

If the balloon is positively charged, the electrons in the neutral body will be attracted to the balloon causing an imbalance of charges in the neutral body.

Similarly if the balloon is negatively charged, it will attract the protons of the neutral body and will stick to it.

The phenomenon is called induced charge into the neutral body.

The two forces of a 3rd law pair always act on different bodies. The two forces of a 3rd law pair always act on different bodies
svetoff [14.1K]

1. The two forces of a 3rd law pair always act on different bodies.

TRUE

SO above statement is TRUE because Newton's III law is valid for two different objects where one object will exert force and other body will exert reaction force on it.

2. Part F Given that two bodies interact via some force, the accelerations of these two bodies have the same magnitude but opposite directions. (Assume no other forces act on either body.)

FALSE

This is false because the force of action and Reaction is same on two different objects but for finding acceleration we need to divide the force by mass of two objects and since the mass of two bodies may be different so we can say that acceleration may be different.

3. Part G According to Newton's 3rd law, the force on the (smaller) moon due to the (larger) earth is

(i) greater in magnitude and antiparallel to the force on the earth due to the moon.

(ii) greater in magnitude and parallel to the force on the earth due to the moon.

(iii) equal in magnitude but antiparallel to the force on the earth due to the moon.

(iv) equal in magnitude and parallel to the force on the earth due to the moon.

(v) smaller in magnitude and antiparallel to the force on the earth due to the moon.

(vi) smaller in magnitude and parallel to the force on the earth due to the moon.

Since Earth and moon is an isolated system so here Newton's III law is valid due to which we can say that two forces are equal in magnitude but opposite in sign

so correct answer will be

equal in magnitude but antiparallel to the force on the earth due to the moon.

A biker starts from rest and reaches a speed of 10 m/s after t travelling with
Natali [406]

Answer:

2m/s^2

Explanation:

we can use this formula to get the answer:

(vf - vi) / t = a

Since vf= 10m/s, vi=0m/s, and t=5

We can just substitute the values into the formula to get the result

that is:

(10 - 0) / 5 = 2m/s^2

andrey2020 [161]

Answer:

0.01154 A

Explanation:

We have given the energy in the magnetic field U=4\times 10^{-6}J

Value of inductance L =0.060 H

Energy stored in magnetic field is given by U=\frac{1}{2}Li^2

i=\sqrt{\frac{2U}{L}}

i=\sqrt{\frac{2\times 4\times 10^{-6}}{0.06}}=0.01154\ A

So the current flowing through rectangular toroid will be 0.01154 A
