You rub a clear plastic pen with wool, and observe that a strip of invisible tape is attacted to the pen. Assuming that the pen

has a negative charge, which of the following could be true? Select all that apply. :A.The tape might be negatively charged.B.The tape might be positively charged.C.The tape might be uncharged.D.There is not enough information to conclude anything.

Explanation:

It is known that opposite charges tend to attract each other whereas like charges tend to repel each other.

For example, when we rub a plastic pen with wool and it gets attracted towards an invisible tape then it means that there is an opposite charge present on both the objects.

A neutral object also tends to develop a charge when it comes in contact with a charged object.

Thus, we can conclude that the following statements are true.

  • The tape might be positively charged.
  • The tape might be uncharged.

We have that the spring constant is mathematically given as

k=2.37*10^{11}N/m

Generally, the equation for angular velocity is mathematically given by

\omega=\sqrt{k}{m}

Where

k=spring constant

And

\omega =\frac{2\pi}{T}

Therefore

\frac{2\pi}{T}=\sqrt{k}{n}

Hence giving spring constant k

k=m((\frac{2 \pi}{T})^2

Generally

Mass of earth m=5.97*10^{24}

Period for on complete resolution of Earth around the Sun

T=365 days

T=365*24*3600

Therefore

k=(5.97*10^{24})((\frac{2 \pi}{365*24*3600})^2

k=2.37*10^{11}N/m

In conclusion

The effective spring constant of this simple harmonic motion is

k=2.37*10^{11}N/m

Hey guys, i need some help. I'm having a physics test tmmrow and I understand nothing :(. Can anyone plz explain or give me a br

We think of sound as something we hear—something that makes noise. But in pure physics terms, sound is just a vibration going through matter.

The way a vibration “goes through” matter is in the form of a sound wave. When you think of sound waves, you probably think of something like this:1

But that’s not how sound waves work. A wave like that is called a transverse wave, where each individual particle moves up and down to create a snake situation.

A sound wave is more like an earthworm situation:2

Like an earthworm, sound moves by compressing and decompressing. This is called a longitudinal wave. A slinky can do both kinds of waves:13

Sound starts with a vibration of some kind creating a longitudinal wave through matter. Check this out:4

That’s what sound looks like—except picture an expanding ripple of spheres doing that. In this animation, the sound wave is being generated by that vibrating grey bar on the left. The bar might be your vocal chords, a guitar string, or a waterfall continually pounding down into the river below. By looking at the red dots, you can see that even though the wave moves in one direction, each individual particle only moves back and forth, mimicking the vibration of the gray bar.

So instead of a curvy snake wave, sound is a pressure wave, which causes each piece of the air to be at either higher-than-normal pressure or lower-than-normal pressure. So when you see a snake-like illustration of a sound wave, it’s referring to the measure of pressure, not the literal path of movement of the particles:5

How far will a free falling object fall in 8.7 secs if it started from rest? Remember acceleration is negative for free fall. Do
sleet_krkn [62]

Answer:

h~=371.26m

Explanation:

when an object falls we use the equations of accelerated motion. There is only one that gives distance.

x = ut +  \frac{1}{2} a {t}^{2}

Since we have no initial velocity (started from rest) we can get rid of the (ut) term

where a we substitute g (gravitational acceleration, constant for given heights and almost 9.81m/s^2).

h =  \frac{1}{2} g {t}^{2}  =  \frac{1}{2}  \times 9.81 \times  {8.7}^{2}  = 371.26m

How long does it take for a dropped rock to fall from a height of 8 meters
seropon [69]

Answer:

1.28 s

Explanation:

Given:

Δy = 8 m

v₀ = 0 m/s

a = 9.8 m/s²

Find: t

Δy = v₀ t + ½ at²

(8 m) = (0 m/s) t + ½ (9.8 m/s²) t²

t = 1.28 s

How does the angle of incidence compare with the angle of reflection?​
S_A_V [24]

Answer:

The angle of incidence is the angle between this normal and the incident ray; the angle of reflection is the angle between this normal and the reflected ray. According to the law of reflection, the angle of incidence equals the angle of reflection.
