Two different conducting objects, initially separated, are connected by a conducting wire. When the wire is removed, can you con

clude that the two objects: (a) carry the same net charge; (b) are at the same potential; (c) have the same charge and the same potential; or (d) have neither the same charge nor potential? Explain.

The two objects after (b) are at the same potential

Explanation:

When the two conducting objects are connected together, charge will be transferred from one object ot another until the two objects reach the same potential.

In fact, if there is still some residual potential difference between the two objects, there would still be a net electric field pushing the charges from one object to the other. Therefore, equilibrium is reached only when the net electric field between the two objects becomes zero, and this occurs only when the potential difference is zero, so when the two objects are at the same potential.

At the equilibrium, however, the charge on the two objects can be different. In fact, the capacity of an object is given by

C=\frac{Q}{V}

where Q is the charge stored by an object and V is its potential. It can be re-arranged as

Q=CV

The two objects are at same potential, V, however their  capacity C can be different since the two objects are not identical: therefore, their stored charge can be different.

A plane on the ground will weigh:
kenny6666 [7]

On ground weight of plane will be measured as its actual weight which will be given as

W = mg

now when plane is in air its weight is measured as combined effect of earth gravitational force and buoyancy force both

so weight in air will be given as

W_{air} = mg - F_b

here since net effect due to air is opposite to the direction of weight so in air the plane weight will be measure less than its weight on ground.

so answer will be

A)more than a plane in the air

Which has more momentum, a 2.0 kg dog at 41 m/s or a 75 kg pony at 1.0 m/s?
Nesterboy [21]

Answer:

The dog has more momentum than the pony.

Explanation:

To solve this problem, we must remember the formula for calculating momentum, which is given below:

momentum = p = m*v

where m represents the mass of the object and v represents the velocity of the object

Using this knowledge, let's calculate the momentum for the dog and the pony.

Dog: p = m*v = (2kg)*(41 m/s) = 82 kg*m/s

Pony: p = m*v = (75kg)*(1 m/s) = 75 kg*m/s

Since 82 > 75, we can conclude that the dog has more momentum.

Hope this helps!
