Consider three identical metal spheres, A, B, and C. Sphere A carries a charge of +6q. Sphere B carries a charge of -q. Sphere C

carries no net charge. Spheres A and B are touched together and then separated. Sphere C is then touched to sphere A and separated from it. Lastly, sphere C is touched to sphere B and separated from it. (a) What is the ratio of the final charge on sphere C to q? What is the ratio of the final total charge on the three spheres to q (b) before they are allowed to touch each other and (c) after they have touched?

Answer:

Part a)

Final charge on C : q = 1.875

Part b)

Ratio for A = 6 : 1.25

Ratio for B = -1 : 1.875

Ratio for C = 0

Explanation:

When two identical metal sphere are connected together then the charge on them will get equally divided on both after connecting them by conducting wire

So here we have

q_A = + 6q

q_B = -q

q_c = 0

Step 1: We connected A and B and then separate them

so we have

q_A' = q_B' = 2.5q

Step 2: We connected A and C and then separate them

so we have

q_A'' = q_c' = 1.25q

Step 3: We connected B and C and then separate them

so we have

q_c'' = q_b'' = 1.875q

How can students earn a GED
ElenaW [278]

Answer:

How Can You Earn Your GED?

  • You must be at least 16 years old to take the GED Test, and you must not be enrolled in high school. ...
  • You must pass all four subject tests in the GED battery of tests, which means scoring at least a 145 on each test (New Jersey requires a score of at least 150 to pass).

>Rules

You must be at least 16 years old to take the GED Test, and you must not be enrolled in high school. You should also meet state eligibility requirements for the amount of time you've been out of high school. In some states, you have to be out of high school for at least 60 consecutive days before you're allowed to take the test. Contact the program administrator in your state for more details.

You must pass all four subject tests in the GED battery of tests, which means scoring at least a 145 on each test (New Jersey requires a score of at least 150 to pass). Scores range from 100 to 200 on the 2014 version). A score of 165 on each test is the benchmark for college and career readiness, and you will receive an Honors distinction if you reach this score. The four tests take seven and a half hours total and are administered by computer. You don't have to take them all on the same day, but some states enforce specific time frames for completing the tests. Most questions are multiple choice, although there is also a mix of fill-in-the-blank, drag and drop, and select-an-area questions, as well as an essay question on the Reasoning Through Language Arts section.

If you don't pass a test the first time around, you can retake it, although different states have different requirements for people who need to retake GED tests (such as additional fees or proof of attending a preparation class). Testing accommodations are available for those with disabilities; you can sign up for them through your online account after you register. You usually have to pay to sign up for the tests, but the cost varies from state to state. After you take each test, you will receive your scores within 24 hours. Here are some more details about the score report.

if u connect 3 resistors, having values 2ohm, 3ohm, 5ohm in parallel, will the value of total resistance of will be 2ohm or grea
Tju [1.3M]
<span>If u want only WHether the total resistance is less than 2 or less than 5 or more than 5 ohms:  there is a Simple way.

When you connect resistances in parallel, resultant resistance is always smaller than all of them. So it is less than 2 ohms</span>.

What is the value of x? enter your answer in the box. Mm triangle v t k with segment t y such that y is on segment v k, between
Crank

Answer: 98 millimeters

Explanation:

Since angle VTY is congruent to angle VTK, segment TY bisects angle VTK. Since Y is on segment VK, between V and K, we can use the Angle Bisector Theorem, which states that

   (1)

Since x= VK = VY + YK, we need to obtain VY since YK = 68.

VY is obtained by multiplying the denominator YK on both sides of equation (1). So,

Hence,

x = VK = VY + YK

x = 30 + 68

x = 98 millimeters

What is thermodynamic?​
Cerrena [4.2K]

Answer:

Thermodynamics is a branch of physics which deals with the energy and work of a system. It was born in the 19th century as scientists were first discovering how to build and operate steam engines. Thermodynamics deals only with the large scale response of a system which we can observe and measure in experiment.
