Two glass marbles (1 and 2), each supported by a nylon thread, are rubbed against a piece of silk and then are placed near a thi

rd glass marble (3), also supported by a similar thread. Assuming that marble 3 has not been in contact with the piece of fabric, which of the following statements best describes the situation when the three marbles are brought together?
To keep things simple in this Tutorial, we will ignore the effects of polarization and just focus on the overall charge of each object.

a.) Marbles 1 and 2 attract each other, but no interaction occurs with marble 3.
b.) Both marbles 1 and 2 attract marble 3.
c.) The three marbles will repel each other.
d.) Marbles 1 and 2 repel each other, but no interaction occurs with marble 3.

Answer:

d.) Marbles 1 and 2 repel each other, but no interaction occurs with marble

Explanation:

Rubbing the glass against the silk charges the glass positively.

Assuming polarization is ignored,

●Glass won't conduct electrical charge. Therefore, acting as a insulator.

●neutral objects won't distribute it's charge when affected by charge objects in proximity. Therefore, over the marble surface, the charge remain spherically symmetrical (undisturbed)

Marble 1 is positive

Marble 2 is positive

Since marble 1 and 2 are positive, repulsion will occur.

marble 3 is neutral (still assuming polarization is ignored), therefore, no interaction with marble 1 and 2

D is the answer.

A body moving at .500c with respect to an observer
lakkis [162]

Answer:

0.8c and -0.14c

Explanation:

The first fragment will have a speed of +0.5c respect of a frame of reference moving at +0.5c

Lest name v the velocity of the frame of reference, and u' the velocity of the object respect of this moving frame of reference.

The Lorentz transform for velocity is:

u = (u' + v) / (1 + (u' * v) / c^2)

u = (0.5c + 0.5c) / (1 + (0.5c * 0.5c) / c^2) = 0.8c

The other fragment has a velocity of u' = -0.6c respect of the moving frame of reference.

u = (-0.6v + 0.5c) / (1 + (0.5c * 0.5c) / c^2) = -0.14c

what can you say about the motion of an object if its speed time graph is a straight line parallel to the time axis ? Also draw
MaRussiya [10]

Answer:

It says about the motion and the graph of the object is stationary, basically travelling at the same speed at any time of the graph. It will never change.

Explanation:

To draw a diagram:

1. Draw an object and represent the speed as stationary and constant at any time.

Conversion fraction 1$=4q, how many are in 20$
Tom [10]

Answer:

\boxed{\sf 20 \$ = 80q}

Given:

1$ = 4q

To Find:

How many quarters are in 20$

Explanation:

To find out how many quarters are in 20$ we need to multiple 4 × 20.

\sf 1\$  = 4q

\sf  20\$  = 4 \times 20q

\sf = 80q
