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.

56 J of work was done to increase the kinetic energy of a 1.90 kg mass. If the object’s initial velocity was zero, what is its s
const2013 [10]

Answer:

7.68 m/s

Explanation:

Ek = 56 J

m = 1.90 kg

u = 0

v = ?

Ek = 0.5m(v - u)²

56 = 0.5×1.90×(v -0)²

56 = 0.5×1.90v²

56 = 0.95v²

v² = 56/0.95 = 58.95

v =√58.95

v = 7.68 m/s

A loaded 500 kg sled is traveling on smooth horizontal snow at 5 m/s when it suddenly comes to a rough region. The region is 10
sergejj [24]

Answer:

400 N

Explanation:

Change of Kinetic Energy to Friction Wok

∆KE = W

½ x m x (v(5)² - v(3)²) = f x d

½ x 500 x (5² - 3²) = f x 10

250 x (25 - 9) = f x 10

25 x 16 = f

f = 400 N

Waves are observed passing under a dock. Wave crests are 8.0 meters apart. The time for a complete wave to pass by is 4.0 second
Harlamova29_29 [7]
The distance between a trough and a crest is double the amplitude.

The distance between trough and crest is (9m - 6m) = 3m.

So the amplitude of those water waves is (3/2) = 1.5 meters.

For this question, we really don't need to know how far apart the crests are, or how often they pass.  There may be more parts to the question, for which that information is needed.

For example: 

-- What's the wavelength of the waves ?  8 meters.

-- What's the period of the waves ?  4 seconds.

-- What's the frequency of the waves ?  1 / (4 seconds) = 0.25 Hz.

-- What's the speed of the waves ? (8 m) x (0.25 Hz) = 2 m/s
