Why does a balloon that is rubbed on someoneâs shirt stick to a wall at a party?

1 answer:

8 0

When we rub balloon on a shirt the balloon will steal electrons from the shirt and the shirt will become positively charged and balloon will negatively charged.The reason that the balloon will stick to the wall is because the negative charges in the balloon will make the electrons in the wall move to the other side of their atoms and this leaves the surface of the wall positively charged.

Answer:

The answers are located in each of the explanations showed below

Explanation:

(i) Surface Tension: The tensile force that causes this tension acts parallel to the surface and is due to the forces of attraction between the molecules of the liquid. The magnitude of this force per unit of length is called surface tension.

σ = F/l [N/m]

where:

F = force [N]

l = length [m]

σ = Surface Tension [N/m]

(ii) Frequency is the number of repetitions per unit of time of any periodic event.

f = 1/T [1/s] or [s^-1] or [Hz]

where:

T = period [s] or [seconds]

f = frecuency [Hz] or [hertz]

(iii) Each of the units will be shown for each variable

v = velocity [m/s]

a = accelertion [m/s^2]

s = displacement [m]

$[\frac{m}{s} ]^{2} =[\frac{m}{s} ]^{2} + 2* [\frac{m}{s^{2} } ]*[m]\\$

$[\frac{m^2}{s^2} ] =[\frac{m^2}{s^2} ] + [\frac{m^{2} }{s^{2} } ]$

$[\frac{m^2}{s^2} ]$

b) To find the velocity we must derivate the function X with respect to t because this derivate will give us the equation for the velocity, it means:

$v=\frac{dx}{dt} \\v = 0.75*2*t+5*t$

$(i) X = 0.75*t^{2} +5*t+1\\X = 0.75*(4)^{2} +5*(4)+1\\X = 33 [m]$

ii) replacing in the derivated equation.

$v=1.5*(4)+5\\v=11[m/s]$

iii) the average velocity is defined by the expresion v = x/t

$v = \frac{x-x_{0} }{t-t_{0} } \\$

$x_{0}=0.75(2)^{2}+5(2)+1 \\ x_{0}=14[m]\\x=0.75(7)^{2}+5(7)+1\\x=72.75[m]\\t = 7 [s]t0= 2[s]Now replacing:[tex]v_{prom} = \frac{72.75-14}{7-2} \\v_{prom} = 11.75 [m/s]$

a) Pascal's principle or Pascal's law, where the pressure exerted on an incompressible fluid and in balance within a container of indeformable walls is transmitted with equal intensity in all directions and at all points of the fluid.

Therefore:

P1 = pressure at point 1.

P2 = pressure at point 2.

P1 = F1/A1

P2= F2/A2

$\frac{F_{1} }{A_{1} }=\frac{F_{2}}{A_{2} } \\F_{1}=A_{1}*(\frac{F_{2}}{A_{2} })$

b) One of the applications of the surface tension is the capillarity this is a property of liquids that depends on their surface tension (which, in turn, depends on the cohesion or intermolecular force of the liquid), which gives them the ability to climb or descend through a capillary tube.

Other examples of surface tension:

The mosquitoes that can sit on the water.

A clip on the water.

Some leaves that remain floating on the surface.

Some soaps and detergents on the water.
