A loess is...

A clastic, silt-sized sediment that is formed by the accumulation of wind-blown dust. 10% of the earth's area is covered by loess or similar deposits.

Hope this helps you to find your answer and if you ever need help with anything else I would be happy to help,

How will this substance ease the pain?

erastova [34]

Answer:

There are two main types of OTC pain medicines: acetaminophen (Tylenol) and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). Aspirin, naproxen (Aleve), and ibuprofen (Advil, Motrin) are examples of OTC NSAIDs. If OTC medicines don't relieve your pain, your doctor may prescribe something stronger

A 0.00275 kg air‑inflated balloon is given an excess negative charge q1 =−3.50×10−8 C by rubbing it with a blanket. It is found

kati45 [8]

Answer:

1) $\rm q_2$ is positive.

2) $\rm q_2=4.56\times 10^{-10}\ C.$

Explanation:

The charged rod is held above the balloon and the weight of the balloon acts in downwards direction. To balance the weight of the balloon, the force on the balloon due to the rod must be directed along the upwards direction, which is only possible when the rod exerts an attractive force on the balloon and the electrostatic force on the balloon due to the rod is attractive when the polarities of the charge on the two are different.

Thus, In order for this to occur, the polarity of charge on the rod must be positive, i.e., $\rm q_2$ is positive.

Given:

Mass of the balloon, m = 0.00275 kg.
Charge on the balloon, $\rm q_1 = -3.50\times 10^{-8}\ C.$
Distance between the rod and the balloon, d = 0.0640 m.
Acceleration due to gravity, $\rm g = 9.81\ m/s^2.$

In order to balloon to be float in air, the weight of the balloom must be balanced with the electrostatic force on the balloon due to rod.

Weight of the balloon, $\rm W = mg = 0.00275\times 9.81=2.70\times 10^{-2}\ N.$

The magnitude of the electrostatic force on the balloon due to the rod is given by

$\rm F_e = \dfrac{1}{4\pi \epsilon_o}\dfrac{|q_1||q_2|}{d^2}.$

$\rm \dfrac{1}{4\pi \epsilon_o}$ is the Coulomb's constant.

For the elecric force and the weight to be balanced,

$\rm F_e = W\\\dfrac{1}{4\pi \epsilon_o}\dfrac{|q_1||q_2|}{d^2}=W\\8.99\times 10^9\times \dfrac{3.50\times10^{-8}\times |q_2| }{0.0640^2}=2.70\times 10^{-2}\\|q_2| = \dfrac{2.70\times 10^{-2}\times 0.00640^2}{8.99\times 10^9\times 2.70\times 10^{-7}}=4.56\times 10^{-10}\ C.$

Distinguish between force and friction. class 8

KengaRu [80]

Answer: Friction is the resistance to motion of one object moving relative to another. For example, when you try to push a book along the floor, friction makes this difficult. Force: Force is essentially a push, or a pull action, that can lead to certain outcomes.
