The matter is a collection or composition of extremely small particles called "Atoms".
<u>Explanation</u>:
- The matter is anything that has mass and which utilizes space by having volume.
- Modern scientists describe the makeup of matter as a collection of tiny substances called atoms.
- Matter can either be in solid, liquid, or gaseous state and even appear in plasma form.
- Matter can neither be created nor be destroyed but only transferred from one form to the other.
- Atoms are composed protons, neutrons and electrons. The protons and neutrons are contained in the nucleus, while the electrons orbit around the nucleus of the atom.
- Protons are positively charged, neutrons are neutral and electrons are negative.
Answer:
it is essential that the charge on the plates are of the same magnitude, but in the opposite direction
Explanation:
The configuration of parallel plates is called a capacitor and is widely used to create constant electric fields inside.
To obtain this field it is essential that the charge on the plates are of the same magnitude, but in the opposite direction
This is so that the fields created by each plate can be added inside and subtracted from the outside of the plates
Answer:
h = 2.087 m
Explanation:
Given
m₁ = 3 kg
v₁ = 20 m/s
m₂ = 2 kg
v₂ = - 14 m/s
In a completely inelastic collision the colliding objects stick together after the collision and move together as a single object.
In the given problem, lets assume that the balls of putty are initially moving along the y axis, upward direction being the positive y direction. And the collision occurs at the origin of the coordinate system.
We can apply the equation
vs = (m₁*v₁ + m₂*v₂) / (m₁ + m₂)
⇒ vs = (3 kg*20 m/s + 2 kg*(- 14 m/s)) / (3 kg + 2 kg)
⇒ vs = 6.4 m/s (↑)
To calculate the maximum height h attained by the combined system of two balls of putty after the the collision, we use the expression for linear motion under gravity:
vf² = vi² - 2*g*h
where
vf = 0 m/s
g = 9.81 m/s²
vi = vs = 6.4 m/s
finally we get h:
h = vi² / (2*g)
⇒ h = (6.4 m/s)² / (2*9.81 m/s²) = 2.087 m
