Consider two metallic rods mounted on insulated supports. One is neutral, another positively charged. The charged rod is brought

close to the neutral one (no touching!) and at this time the neutral rod was briefly grounded (for instance, touched by your hand).
Part (a) What would be resulting charge (if any) on initially neutral rod?

1) There is not enough information given to be able to answer.
2) It will be positively charged.
3) It will be negatively charged.
4) It will remains neutral.

Answer:

The resulting charge on the initially neutral rod will be  3.) it will be negatively charged.

Explanation:

If the neutral rod is brought close to the neutral one and if the neutral rod is touching the ground then the positive charges will attract electrons from the ground on to the rod.

The Earth (or ground) has electrons in abundance and electrons can be taken from of fed into the Earth without having any significant impact on the Earth's electric field.

So. the resulting charge on the initially neutral rod will be  3.) it will be negatively charged.

dybincka [34]

Here we can say that rate of flow must be constant

so here we will have

A_1v_1 = 18 A_2v_2

now we know that

A_1 = 1 cm^2

A_2 = 0.4 cm^2

now from above equation

1 cm^2 v_1 = 18(0.400 cm^2)v_2

\frac{v_2}{v_1} = \frac{1}{18\times 0.4}

\frac{v_2}{v_1} = 0.14

so velocity will reduce by factor 0.14

Select Light for the type of wave, adjust the wavelength so that the light is red, and increase the amplitude of the light to th
Sergeu [11.5K]

Answer:

here as we increase the distance the intensity will decrease and hence the amplitude of the electric field will decrease and vice-versa

Explanation:

As wee know that the amplitude of the wave will decide the energy of the wave

Here we know that energy density of electromagnetic wave is given as

u = \frac{1}{2}\epsilon_0E_0^2

now we have

\frac{I}{c} = \frac{1}{2}\epsilon_0 E_0^2

so here we can say that intensity of the wave at the given distance from the source is given by formula

I = \frac{P}{4\pi r^2}

so here as we increase the distance the intensity will decrease and hence the amplitude of the electric field will decrease and vice-versa.

Explaining How Momentum Can Cause
Ghella [55]

Answer:

The astronaut can throw the hammer in a direction away from the space station. While he is holding the hammer, the total momentum of the astronaut and hammer is 0 kg • m/s. According to the law of conservation of momentum, the total momentum after he throws the hammer must still be 0 kg • m/s. In order for momentum to be conserved, the astronaut will have to move in the opposite direction of the hammer, which will be toward the space station.

The weight of a luggage is 69.3 N on the moon. Find its weight on the Earth.​
Galina-37 [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

weight on moon = 1/6* weight on earth

69.3=1/6*weight on earth

weight on earth = 69.3*6

weight on earth = 415.8 N
