What happens to electric charges within a conductor when a charged object is brought close to it

1 answer:

8 0

Well, if a charger conductor is touched to another object or close enough to touching the object then the conductor can transfer its charge to that object. Conductors allow for electrons to be transported from particle to particle, so a charged object will always distribute its charge until the repulsive forces are minimized.

Metals in group 2 on the period table most commonly form which type

LuckyWell [14K]

Answer:

alkaline earth metals

Group 2 metals, the alkaline earth metals, have 2 valence electrons, and thus form M2+ ions. The halogens, Group 17 , reach a full valence shell upon reduction, and thus form X− ions

Yolanda is studying two waves. The first wave has an amplitude of 2 m, and the second has an amplitude of 3 m. Which statement a

Anna71 [15]

Answer:

a) Not Accurate

b) Not Accurate

c) Accurate

d) Accurate

Explanation:

Part a

Not Accurate, because destructive interference would lead to maximum possible magnitude of < 3 m

Part b

Not Accurate, because constructive interference would lead to minimum possible magnitude of > 2 m

Part c

Accurate, because destructive interference would lead to maximum possible magnitude of < 3 m by varying the phase difference between two waves she can achieve the desired results.

Part d

Accurate, because constructive interference would lead to minimum possible magnitude of > 2 m by varying the phase difference between two waves she can achieve the desired results.

A 4 kg bowling ball moving at 1.4 m/s east impacts a 400 g pin that is stationary. After the impact, the ball is moving at 0.5 m

nignag [31]

The speed of the pin after the elastic collision is 9 m/s east.

<h3>Final speed of the pin</h3>

The final speed of the pin is calculated by applying the principle of conservation of linear momentum as follows;

m1u1 + mu2 = m1v1 + m2v2

where;

m is the mass of the objects
u is the initial speed of the objects
v is the final speed of the objects

4(1.4) + 0.4(0) = 4(0.5) + 0.4v2

5.6 = 2 + 0.4v2

5.6 - 2 = 0.4v2

3.6 = 0.4v2

v2 = 3.6/0.4

v2 = 9 m/s

Thus, The speed of the pin after the elastic collision is 9 m/s east.

The part of an atom that is mostly empty space is the

Ghella [55]

<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

Electron cloud

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>

<em><u>An atom is the smallest particle of an element that can take part in a chemical reaction. Atom is made up of two parts ; that is the nucleus and the electron cloud. The nucleus contain subatomic particles; protons and neutrons, while the electron cloud contains the electrons.</u></em>
<em><u>The electron cloud is the largest part of the atom and is mostly an empty space. Most of an atom is a cloud of electrons surrounding a space called the nucleus with tiny protons and neutrons.</u></em>
