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

Physics

WITCHER [35]2 years ago

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.

A small glider is coasting horizontally when suddenly a very heavy piece of cargo falls out of the bottom of the plane.
myrzilka [38]

Answer:

a. The plane speeds up but the cargo does not change speed.

Explanation:

Just to make it clear, the question is as follows from what I understand.

A small glider is coasting horizontally when suddenly a very heavy piece of cargo falls out of the bottom of the plane.  You can neglect air resistance.

Just after the cargo has fallen out:

a. The plane speeds up but the cargo does not change speed.

b. The cargo slows down but the plane does not change speed.

c. Neither the cargo nor the plane change speed.

d. The plane speeds up and the cargo slows down.

e. Both the cargo and the plane speed up.

And we are requested to choose the right answer under the given conditions. We know the glider has no motor, then it must be in free fall movement, then it is experiencing some force that pulls it to the from due to the gravity effect on it, and a force in general is calculated by

F=m*a, m:= mass of the object, a:= acceleration.

Here we are only considering the horizontal effect of the forces, then since the mass is reduced the acceleration must increase to compensate and maintain  the equilibrium of the forces, then the glider being lighter can travel faster due to the acceleration. On the other hand by the time the cargo left the glider there was no acceleration and the speed it had at the moment he left the plane continues, then the cargo does not change its speed, then horizontally speaking the answer would be a. The plane speeds up but the cargo does not change speed.

The unit of force,newton is a derived unit.why?​
Alenkasestr [34]

Answer: Newton, the unit of force, is defined based on Newton's Second Law (F=ma), as the force required to give a mass of one kilogram an acceleration of 1 meter/second2. Thus, it is derived from these other units.

The vapor pressure of ethanol at 293 K is 5.95 kPa and at 336.5 K it is 53.3 kPa. Calculate the enthalpy of vaporization of etha
denis-greek [22]

Answer:

H=41.3kJmol^{-1}

Explanation:

The equation relating the the enthalphy, pressure and temperature is expressed as

ln(\frac{P_{2}}{P_{1}} )=\frac{H}{R}(\frac{1}{T_{1}}-\frac{1}{T_{2}} ) \\

Where P is the pressure, H is the enthalphy, and T is the temperature.

since the given values are

T_{1}=293k, \\T_{2}=336.5k\\P_{1}=5.95kPA\\p_{2}=53.3kPA\\and R=8.314J.K^{-1}mol_{-1}

if we insert values, we arrive at

ln(\frac{53.3}{5.95} )=\frac{H}{8.314}(\frac{1}{293}-\frac{1}{336.5} )\\2.19=\frac{H}{8.314}(0.00044)\\H=(2.19*8.314)/0.00044\\H=41,268.8Jmol^{-1}\\H=41.3kJmol^{-1}

A sample has a density of 30 g/ml. there is 60 ml of this substance.how much does it weigh?
aleksandrvk [35]
If each mL has 30 grams of the substance in it, then 60 mL have 1800 grams of mass in them. the weight of 1,800 grams of mass on Earth is (1.8 kg) x (9.8 m/s^2) = 17.6 newtons.
