What is the difference in the charges on a balloon rubbed in your hair and a glass rod rubbed with Silk? Why?

Physics
1 answer:
WITCHER [35]3 years ago
5 0
Rubbing the balloon on you hair, the hair causes electrons to be added to the balloon. Hence, the balloon would have excesses electrons. 

Hence charge on the balloon is negative.

The effect of the silk is to remove electrons, so when the glass rod is rubbed with silk, the silk remove electrons from the glass rod. Hence, since the rod has lossed electrons, it would then be positively charged.

Hence charge on the glass is positive.

Light with energy equal to three times the work function of a given metal causes the metal to eject photoelectrons. What is the
Mrac [35]

The ratio of the maximum photoelectron kinetic energy to the work function will be 3:1.

<h3 /><h3>What is the photoelectric effect?</h3>

When a medium receives electromagnetic radiation, electrostatically charged particles are emitted from or inside it.

The emission of ions from a steel plate when light falls on it is a common definition of the effect. The substance could be a solid, liquid, or gas; and the released particles could be protons or electrons.

A particular metal emits photoelectrons when exposed to light with energy three times its work function:

\rm KE=3 \phi

The ratio of the maximum photoelectron kinetic energy to the work function will be;

R=\frac{E}{\phi} \\\\ R=\frac{3 \phi}{\phi} \\\\ R= 3

Hence, the ratio of the maximum photoelectron kinetic energy to the work function will be 3:1.

Suppose two point charges, Q1 = -6.25 x 10-9 C and Q2 = -6.25 x 10-9 C, are separated by a distance d = 0.617 m.
n200080 [17]

Answer:

The answer to your question is the letter A) F =  9.23 x 10⁻⁷ N

Explanation:

Data

q₁ = -6.25 x 10⁻⁹ C

q₂ = -6.25 x 10⁻⁹ C

d = 0.617 m

k = 9 x 10⁹ Nm²/C²

F = ?

Formula

              F = k q₁q₂ /r²

-Substitution

              F = (9 x 10⁹)(-6.25 x 10⁻⁹)(-6.25 x 10⁻⁹) / (0.617)²

-Simplification

              F = 3.512 x 10⁻⁷ / 0.381

-Result

              F = 9.227 x 10⁻⁷ N  ≈ 9.23 x 10⁻⁷ N

Objects 1 and 2 attract each other with a electrostatic force of 72.0 units. If the charge of object 1 is doubled AND the charge
lbvjy [14]

Answer:

432 units

Explanation:

Let the charges be q and Q separated by a distance r. The electrostatic force , F = kqQ/r² = 72 units. If q = 2q and Q = 3Q, then the new electrostatic force is

F = k × 2q × 3Q/r² = 6kqQ/r² = 6 × 72 = 432 units
