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]2 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.

Parallel light rays with a wavelength of 563 nm fall on a single slit. On a screen 3.30 m away, the distance between the first d
MrMuchimi

Answer:

The width of the slit is 0.4 mm (0.00040 m).

Explanation:

From the Young's interference expression, we have;

(λ ÷ d) = (Δy ÷ D)

where λ is the wavelength of the light, D is the distance of the slit to the screen, d is the width of slit and Δy is the fringe separation.

Thus,

d = (Dλ) ÷ Δy

D = 3.30 m, Δy = 4.7 mm (0.0047 m) and λ = 563 nm (563 ×10^{-9} m)

d = (3.30 × 563 ×10^{-9} ) ÷ (0.0047)

  = 1.8579 × 10^{-6} ÷ 0.0047

  = 0.0003951 m

d = 0.00040 m

The width of the slit is 0.4 mm (0.00040 m).

THE LARGEST HORIZONTAL PLATES IS SEPARATED BY 4mm .The plate is at the potencial of -6V . What potencial should be applied to th
Serhud [2]

Answer:

V₂ = -22 V

Explanation:

Electric potential and field are related

         ΔV = - E d

where ΔV is the potential difference between the plates, E the electric field and d the separation between the plates

 

In this exercise we are given the parcionero d = 4 mm = 0.004 m, the potential of one of the plates V1 = -6V and the value of the electric field E = 4000 V / m

          V₂- V₁ = - E d

          V₂ = - Ed + V₁

          V₂ = - 4000 0.004 + (- 6)

          V₂ = -16 - 6

          V₂ = -22 V

A truck travels up a hill with a 7.5◦incline.The truck has a constant speed of 24 m/s.What is the horizontal component of thetru
riadik2000 [5.3K]

Answer:

The horizontal component of the truck's velocity is: 23.70 m/s

The vertical component of the truck's velocity is: 3.13 m/s

Explanation:

You have to apply trigonometric identities for a right triangle (because the ramp can be seen as a right triangle where the speed is the hypotenuse), in order to obtain the components of the velocity vector.

The identities are:

Cosα= \frac{CA}{H}

Senα= \frac{CO}{H}

Where H is the hypotenuse, α is the angle, CA is the adjacent cathetus and CO is the opposite cathetus

The horizontal component of the truck's velocity is:

Let Vx represent it.

In this case, CA=Vx, H=24 and α=7.5 degrees

Vx=(24)Cos(7.5)

Vx=23.79 m/s

The vertical component of the truck's velocity is:

Let Vy represent it.

In this case, CO=Vy, H=24 and α=7.5 degrees

Vy=(24)Sen(7.5)

Vy=3.13 m/s

If the pendulum took longer to complete one oscillation, how would the graph change?
pickupchik [31]

We don't know what kind of graph it is.

For example, it might be a graph of the pendulum's distance from center,

angle from center, speed, acceleration, total distance swung since it was

started, mass, weight, temperature, etc.


If the graph shows the pendulum's distance from center, angle from center,

speed, or acceleration, then the graph will look like a wave, with the period

of the wave being the period of the pendulum's oscillation. If the pendulum

took longer to complete one oscillation, that means its PERIOD increased,

and the distance between the peaks of the graph would be longer.


If it was a graph of total distance the pendulum swung since it was started,

the graph wouldn't look like a wave, just a steadily rising wiggle line. If the

pendulum took longer to complete one oscillation, the wiggles in the line

would be farther apart, and the average slope of any large section of the

line would be less.


If it was a graph of the pendulum's mass, weight, temperature, cost, etc.,

then the graph would be a horizontal line, and nothing that might change

the period of oscillation would have any effect on the graph.

Why football players boots have spikes their sole<br>Give short and sweet answer​
Marizza181 [45]

Answer:

it helps with balance and speed.

"The football shoes have spikes or studs because the studs or spikes provides larger frictional force than normal shoes while running on the grass. The studs prevents player from slipping on the grass and help to run faster and change direction quickly without slipping"
