Answer:

q_end = q / 4  

Explanation:

Since the balls are in insulating barrels, it has no charge exchange with the earth, so it maintains its initial charge.

 

When the ball a touches the ball b and since the two are metallic the charge is distributed over the entire surface, by separating the two spheres that are of the same radius, the load was distributed between the two,

           

              q_end = q₀ / 2

              q_end = (q / 2) / 2

              q_end = q / 4

This is the charge on each ball.

If we keep touching the balls nothing else happens because the charges are already equal in both.

Sveta_85 [38]

Answer:

111.4 m

Explanation:

PE = m x g x h

349,300 = 320 x 9.8 x h

h = 349300 : 3136

h = 111,384 m

Why do objects not cool to absolute zero by emitting all their thermal energy
iren [92.7K]

Answer:

Because the object should shrink its volume to zero, which is impossible

Explanation:

Let's talk about gases for simplicity. Ideal gases are governed by the ideal gas equation:

pV=nRT

where

p is the gas pressure

V is the volume of the gas

n is the number of moles

R is the gas constant

T is the absolute temperature

From the formula, we see that T and V are directly proportional: therefore, in order for a gas to have an absolute temperature of zero, it must also have a volume of zero, which is impossible.

Explain why a roller coaster’s second hill cannot be taller than the first hill.
max2010maxim [7]
There will not be enough momentum from the first hill to cross another hill if he same or larger size because of the way potential energy and kinetic energy works it will not be able go as high as it could go on he fist hill.
