Answer: The correct answer is "Both B and C are positively charged".

Explanation:

Same charges repel each other. There is an electrostatic force of repulsion between the same charges.

Unlike charges attract each other. There is an electrostatic force of attraction between the opposite charges.

In the given problem, consider four objects: A, B, C, and D. If A is negatively charged and B and C attract A but repel each other.

In the given question, B and C repel each other. It means that both B and C have same charge. A is negatively charged. Then, B and C have positive charge. As B and C attract A. Both B and C are positively charged.

Therefore, the option (B) is correct.

Say you want to make a sling by swinging a mass M of 2.3 kg in a horizontal circle of radius 0.034 m, using a string of length 0
ycow [4]

Answer:

T = 764.41 N

Explanation:

In this case the tension of the string is determined by the centripetal force. The formula to calculate the centripetal force is given by:

F_c=m\frac{v^2}{r}  (1)

m: mass object = 2.3 kg

r: radius of the circular orbit = 0.034 m

v: tangential speed of the object

However, it is necessary to calculate the velocity v first. To find v you use the formula for the kinetic energy:

K=\frac{1}{2}mv^2

You have the value of the kinetic energy (13.0 J), then, you replace the values of K and m, and solve for v^2:

v^2=\frac{2K}{m}=\frac{2(13.0J)}{2.3kg}=11.3\frac{m^2}{s^2}

you replace this value of v in the equation (1). Also, you replace the values of r and m:

F_c=(2.3kg)(\frac{11.3m^2/s^2}{0.034})=764.41N

hence, the tension in the string must be T =  Fc = 764.41 N

Where are you on Earth if you experience each of the following? (Refer to the discussion in Observing the Sky: The Birth of Astr
Aloiza [94]

Explanation:

We know that the sky appears to us like a sphere called as celestial sphere which appears to rotate around an imaginary axis because of Earth's rotation. Since the axis cuts the celestial sphere at celestial poles all the object seems to circle around the celestial poles.

Condition 1: The stars rise and set perpendicular to the horizon

The observer is at the equator

Condition 2: The stars circle the sky parallel to the horizon

The observer is at the Pole of the Earth

Condition 3: The celestial equator passes through the zenith

The observer is at the equator

Condition 4: In the course of a year, all stars are visible

The observer is at the equator

Condition 5: The Sun rises on March 21 and does not set until September 21 (ideally)

The observer is at North Pole
