Answer:

Explanation:

The static charges are generated due to excess or deficiency of electrons, because these are the smallest quanta of charge available at the molecular level which can get transferred with minimal energy requirement.

These charges are usually generated by friction between  the two surfaces leading to the transfer of electron from one to another.

When a plastic pipe is rubbed with a cloth then due to friction the surface of the cloth loses electron which gets stuck at the surface of the pipe making it negatively charged.

A 1420-kg car is traveling with a speed of 12.4 m/s. What is the magnitude of the horizontal net force that is required to bring
zzz [600]

Answer:

1419.01436 N

Explanation:

t = Time taken

u = Initial velocity

v = Final velocity

s = Displacement

a = Acceleration

v^2-u^2=2as\\\Rightarrow a=\frac{v^2-u^2}{2s}\\\Rightarrow a=\frac{0^2-12.4^2}{2\times 78}\\\Rightarrow a=-0.98564\ m/s^2

The force on the car

F=ma\\\Rightarrow F=1420\times -0.98564\\\Rightarrow F=-1419.01436\ N

Magnitude of the horizontal net force that is required to bring the car to a halt is 1419.01436 N

Stella [2.4K]
The weight of the plane is  (mass) x (acceleration of gravity).
Neither of these changes when the plane rises from the ground.
Its weight on the ground is equal to (the same as) its weight in the air.

When hydrogen shares electrons with oxygen, the outermost shell of the hydrogen atoms are full with :
Alja [10]

Hydrogen is written as H2 and oxygen is written as O2

When they bond it is a covalent bond.

Hydrogen has 1 negative electron , which would attract one from oxygen, so its outer shell would have 2 electrons.

Oxygen outer shell holds 8 electrons.

The answer is

2 and 8

An object at rest does not _____ and an object in motion does not _____, unless an _____ force acts upon it
mel-nik [20]

Answer:

An object at rest does not move and an object in motion does not change its velocity, unless an external force acts upon it

Explanation:

This statement is also known as Newton's first law, or law of  inertia.

It states that the state of motion of an object can be changed only if there is an external force (different from zero) acting on it: therefore

- If an object is at rest, it will remain at rest if there is no force acting on it

- If an object is moving, it will continue moving at constant velocity if there is no force acting on it

This phenomenon can be also understood by looking at Newton's second law:

F = ma

where

F is the net force on an object

m is the mass

a is the acceleration

If the net force is zero, F = 0, the acceleration of the object is also zero, a = 0: therefore, the velocity of the object does not change, and it will continue moving at the same velocity (which can be zero, if the object was at rest).
