Rubbing two objects together may cause large number of electrons to be transferred from one object to the other. True or False

Physics

ahrayia [7]3 years ago

Answer:

Rubbing two objects together may cause large number of electrons to be transferred from one object to the other. True or False.

Answer is True.

Explanation:

When we Rub two different objects, the contact area increases or we can say friction increases. In response of rubbing two materials there is a transfer of electrons from one material to the other material. This causes one subject to become positively charged ( Electron loser) and the other object become negatively charged ( Electron gainer )  This is also called Triboelectric Charging.

Now If contact area of two different rubbing objects will be larger, Friction will be larger , the larger number of electrons would be transferred from one object to other.

A piece of wire length 30cm and cross sectional area of 0.5mm^2 has a resistance of 5ohms at 20°c. It is then heated to a temper
Grace [21]

Answer:

8.333*10^-6 ohms

Explanation:

Resistivity of a material is expressed as;

p = RA/l

R is the resistance of the material

A is the cross sectional area

l is the length of the material

Given

R = 5 ohms

A = 0.5mm^2

A = 5 * 10^-7m^2

l = 30cm  = 0.3m

Substitute into the formula;

p = (5 *  5 * 10^-7m^2)/0.3

p = 25 * 10^-7/0.3

p = 0.0000025/0.3

p = 8.333*10^-6

Hence its resistivity at 20 degrees Celsius is 8.333*10^-6 ohms

Physics question A spacecraft descends vertically near the surface of Planet X. An upward thrust of 25.0kN from its engines slow
Evgesh-ka [11]
 F=m*a and m is constant on any planet 
25000-m*g=m*1.2 
10000-m*g=-m*0.80 
m*g is the weight 
25000/1.2-m*g/1.2=m 
10000/0.80-m*g/0.80=-25000/1.2+m*g/1.2 solve for m*g 
m*g=(10000/0.80+25000/1.2)/ (1/1.2+1/0.80)

As a box is pushed 30 meters across a horizontal floor by a constant horizontal force of 25 newtons, the kinetic energy of the b
irakobra [83]

Answer:

1,050 Joules

Explanation:

<u>Step 1:</u> work done in moving the box 30 meters

work done = force X distance

                  = 25N X 30 = 750 Joules

<u>Step 2: </u>calculate total internal energy

Total internal energy = work done + kinetic energy

                                   = 750 Joules + 300 Joules

                                   = 1,050 Joules = 1.05 KJ

If a ball is thrown vertically upward with a velocity of 160 ft/s, then its height after t seconds is s = 160t − 16t^2.
White raven [17]

Answer:

400ft.    32ft/s       -32ft/s

Explanation:

In reality the gravitational acceleration is 9.81 so the quadratic coefficient of the function should be 9.81/2

Anyway for the sake of assumtion let us takes=160t-16t^2

 

ds/dt=160-32t=0

 

t=160/32= 5 seconds.

s=160*160/32-16*(160/32)^2= 400 mts

 

 

s=384 mts

160t-16t^2=384

i.e

16t^2-160t+384=0

 

t^2-10t+24=0

(t-6)(t-4)=0

t=[4,6]

we have to take t=4 because it is all the up i.e <5

 

velocity =v=ds/dt=160-32t

 

v=160-32*4=32 ft/sec still going up

 

for all the way down take t=6 whuch is >5

 

v=160-6*32=-32 ft/sec (falling down!!!)

Science Seminar Question: Why did Vehicle 2 fall off the cliff in Claire's test of the collision scene but Vehicle 2 did not fal
asambeis [7]

Complete Question:

Check the file attached to get the complete question

Answer:

In the film Ice word Revenge, vehicle 2 did not fall of the cliff because, Weight_{vehicle 1} < Weight_{vehicle 2} but in Claire's test, vehicle 2 off the cliff because Weight_{vehicle 1} \geq Weight_{vehicle 2}

Explanation:

In Claire's test, the weight of vehicle 1 is either equal to or greater than the weight of vehicle 2, so it was sufficient to push it down the cliff.  In the film Ice word revenge, the weight of vehicle 1 is less than the weight of vehicle 2, it is not sufficient to make it fall off the cliff ( Note: Looking exactly the same in the movie, as Claire claimed, does not mean they have the same mass). Therefore if Claire wants a collision that will not make the vehicle 2 fall off the cliff, he should collide it with a vehicle of lesser mass/weight.
