Answer:

Explanation:

It is given that the sphere is insulated from ground and a large charge is placed on the sphere. The charge on the hollow sphere will always remain on the outer surface of the sphere and there will be no charge on the inner surface of the sphere.

If a person touches the inner surface of the sphere then he will not be harmed as there is no charge on the inner surface of the sphere.

If a person carries the charge of the opposite sign of the same magnitude then the sphere and person get neutralized upon touching the sphere.

If a person does not touches the sphere then the charge on the outer surface will be zero and there will be a positive charge on the inner surface of the sphere

The acceleration of a baseball after it is hit by a bat depends on the mass of the ball and the net force on the
Scrat [10]

Answer:

B. Newton's second law of motion

Explanation:

Newton's Second Law of Motion states that the acceleration of a physical object is directly proportional to the net force acting on the physical object and inversely proportional to its mass.

Mathematically, it is given by the formula;

Net \; Force = mass * acceleration

Making acceleration the subject of formula, we have;

Acceleration = \frac {Net \; Force}{Mass}

In this scenario, the acceleration of a baseball after it is hit by a bat depends on the mass of the ball and the net force on the ball. Thus, this example best illustrates Newton's second law of motion.

In order to go in a circle at a constant speed an object needs
maxonik [38]

Answer:

So for an object moving in a circle, there must be an inward force acting upon it in order to cause its inward acceleration. This is sometimes referred to as the centripetal force requirement. The word centripetal (not to be confused with the F-word centrifugal) means center seeking.

During the last shot of the game, the basketball goes from rest to 15 m/s and reaches the backboard in 0.41 s. What was the acce
Anna [14]

Answer: a= 37m

Explanation: V= 15 m/s (Velocity) t= 0.41s (time) formula: a= v/t

15 m/s / 0.41 (15 divided by 0.41) = 36.583m

There are 2 significant digits, 36, you look at the third digit, either round up or down in this case up to 36. a= 37m

The magnitude of a force vector is 89.6 newtons (N). The x component of this vector is directed along the +x axis and has a magn
insens350 [35]

Answer:

(a) θ = 33.86°

(b) Ay = 49.92 N

Explanation:

You have that the magnitude of a vector is A = 89.6 N

The x component of such a vector is Ax = 74.4 N

(a) To find the angle between the vector and the x axis you use the following formula for the calculation of the x component of a vector:

A_x=Acos\theta       (1)

Ax: x component of vector A

A: magnitude of vector A

θ: angle between vector A and the x axis

You solve the equation (1) for θ, by using the inverse of cosine function:

\theta=cos^{-1}(\frac{A_x}{A})=cos{-1}(\frac{74.4N}{89.6N})\\\\\theta=33.86\°

the angle between the A vector and the x axis is 33.86°

(b) The y component of the vector is given by:

A_y=Asin\theta\\\\A_y=(89.6N)sin(33.86\°)=49.92N

the y comonent of the vecor is Ay = 49.92 N

Describe how one plays Dr.Dogeball​
JulsSmile [24]
•To play Dr. Dodgeball you need to have 2 teams to verse each other.
•Next, select one person from each team to be the doctor (depending on the size of the teams you can have varying amounts of doctors)
•Continue to play dodgeball how you normally would
•When a player gets hit and is “out” they have to sit on the ground and wait for the doctor to “revive them” (this usually requires the doctor dragging,touching, or moving the player that is out to a “revival place” which is usually decided on by the advisor or person in charge.
•Finally, try to get all the doctors and players out from the other team. Get the doctors first, for they cannot revive themselves. Which means the other players are out after they get hit with a ball since the doctors are out. (Some games are played where if all doctors are out the game ends)
Hope this helped! Play on! And plz mark brainliest lol this was long to write :D
