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.<span>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.</span>

Calculate the kinetic energy, in joules of a 1160-kg automobile moving at 19.0 m/s.
Rudiy27

Answer:

Explanation:

K.E=1/2 mv²

m=1160 kg

v=19.0 m/s

so k.e=1/2*1160*(19.0)²

K.E=1/2*1160*361

K.E=1/2*418760

K.E=209380=2.0*10^5 j

An amusement park ride raises people high into the air, suspends them for a moment, and then drops them at a rate of free-fall a
blsea [12.9K]

Answer: apparent weighlessness.


Explanation:


1) Balance of forces on a person falling:


i) To answer this question we will deal with the assumption of non-drag force (abscence of air).


ii) When a person is dropped, and there is not air resistance, the only force acting on the person's body is the Earth's gravitational attraction (downward), which is the responsible for the gravitational acceleration (around 9.8 m/s²).


iii) Under that sceneraio, there is not normal force acting on the person (the normal force is the force that the floor or a chair exerts on a body to balance the gravitational force when the body is on it).


2) This is, the person does not feel a pressure upward, which is he/she does not feel the weight: freefalling is a situation of apparent weigthlessness.


3) True weightlessness is when the object is in a place where there exists not grativational acceleration: for example a point between two planes where the grativational forces are equal in magnitude but opposing in direction and so they cancel each other.


Therefore, you conclude that, assuming no air resistance, a person in this ride experiencing apparent weightlessness.

Consider the system consisting of the box and the spring, but not Earth. How does the energy of the system when the spring is fu
BabaBlast [244]

Answer:

the energy when it reaches the ground is equal to the energy when the spring is compressed.

Explanation:

For this comparison let's use the conservation of energy theorem.

Starting point. Compressed spring

         Em₀ = K_e = ½ k x²

Final point. When the box hits the ground

         Em_f = K = ½ m v²

since friction is zero, energy is conserved

          Em₀ = Em_f

          1 / 2k x² = ½ m v²

          v = \sqrt{ \frac{k}{m} }     x

Therefore, the energy when it reaches the ground is equal to the energy when the spring is compressed.
