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.

A jogger moves from a position x =
vlada-n [284]

Answer:

3 m/s

Explanation:

We'll begin by calculating the change in displacement of the jogger. This can be obtained as follow:

Initial displacement (d₁) = 4 m

Final displacement (d₂) = 16 m

Change in displacement (Δd) =?

Δd = d₂ – d₁

Δd = 16 – 4

Δd = 12 m

Finally, we shall determine the determine the average velocity. This can be obtained as follow:

Change in displacement (Δd) = 12 m

Time (t) = 4 s

Velocity (v) =?

v = Δd / t

v = 12 / 4

v = 3 m/s

Thus, the average velocity of the jogger is 3 m/s

A horizontal uniform meter stick supported at the 50-cm mark has a mass of 0.50 kg hanging from it at the 20-cm mark and a 0.30
ElenaW [278]

Answer:

70 cm

Explanation:

0.5 kg at 20 cm

0.3 kg at 60 cm

x = Distance of the third 0.6 kg mass

Meter stick hanging at 50 cm

Torque about the support point is given by (torque is conserved)

0.5(50-20)=0.3(60-50)+0.6x\\\Rightarrow x=\dfrac{0.5(50-20)-0.3(60-50)}{0.6}\\\Rightarrow x=20\ cm

The position of the third mass of 0.6 kg is at 20+50 = 70 cm
