Why are neutral objects attracted to charged objects?

Physics
1 answer:
kow [346]4 years ago
5 0

Explanation:

When neutral objects are placed in the vicinity of charged objects,they get attracted.

The isolated neutral object has positive charge and negative charge spread throughout it completely.

When a charged particle is brought,the opposite charges in the neutral object occupy the positions near to the charged particle and the like charges occupy the positions far from the charged particle.

This creates a dipole with some dipole moment.

This dipole attracts to the field of the charged particle.

Find the horizontal component and the vertical component ​
aleksandr82 [10.1K]

Answer:

v=3.66,h-3.66

Explanation:

vertical = 10sin60 - 10sin 30

horizontal =10cos60 + 10cos 30

v = 10×0.8660-10×0.5

h = 10×0.5 + 10 × 0.8660

v=8.660-5.0 = 3.66

h= 5.0-8.660 = -3.66

Two wheels roll side-by-side without sliding, at the same speed. The radius of wheel 2 is one-half (1/2) the radius of wheel 1.
Lemur [1.5K]

Answer:

w'=(1/2)w

Explanation:

In order to calculate the angular velocity of the second wheel, you use the following formula:

\omega=\frac{v}{r}      (1)

v: speed of the wheel 1 = speed of the wheel 2

r: radius of the wheel 1

For the second wheel you have:

r'=2r

You replace this value of r' in the following equation:

\omega'=\frac{v}{r'}=\frac{v}{2r}=\frac{1}{2}\frac{v}{r}=\frac{1}{2}\omega\\\\\omega'=\frac{1}{2}\omega

The angular velocity of the second wheel is one half of the angular velocity of the first wheel
