An electroscope is a device that has small gold foil strips suspended from a metal rod. A student brings a negatively charged ro

d near the top of a neutral electroscope. The student then briefly touches a hand to the top of the electroscope before removing the charged rod. The foil strips of the electroscope now spread apart. The student then brings a different rod near the top of the electroscope. The leaves of the electroscope move closer together (see below). The new rod must have a net charge that is
1) positive.
2) negative.
3) neutral.
4) not enough information.

if the intensity of a person's voice is 4.6 x 10^-7 w/m^2 at a distance of 2.0 m, how much sound power does that person generate
777dan777 [17]

The sound power the person generated is 2.313 \times 10^{-5} \ W.

<h3>Area of the sound wave</h3>

The area of the sound wave is calculated as follows;

A = 4\pi r^2\\\\A = 4 \pi \times (2)^2\\\\A = 50.272 \ m^2

<h3>Power generated</h3>

The sound power the person generated is calculated as follows;

P = I A\\\\P = 4.6\times 10^{-7} \ W/m^2 \ \ \times \ \ 50.272 \ m^2\\\\P = 2.313 \times 10^{-5} \ W

A solid is stirred into a liquid and dissolves. Which type of mixture forms?
AVprozaik [17]
The type of mixture that is formed when a solid is stirred into a liquid and dissolves is called suspension. The particles involved or being mixed in this type of mixture is large enough that can be seen by the naked eye without the aid of any device. A suspension mixture has a heterogeneous mixture.

A 30 ohm resistor and a 20 ohm resistor are
Reptile [31]

The current that would pass through the 30 ohms resistor is 2 A.

<h3>What is electric current?</h3>

Electric current is the rate of flow of electric charge round a conductor.

To calculate the electric current that would pass through the 30 ohms resistor, we use the formula below

Formula:

  • I = V/Rt........... Equation 1

Where:

  • I = Electric current passing through the 30 ohms resistor
  • V = Voltage
  • Rt = Total or effective resistance of the resistors.

From the question,

Given:

  • V = 100 volts
  • Rt = (30+20) ohms (since both resistors are connected in series)
  • Rt = 50 ohms

Substitute these values into equation 1

  • I = 100/50
  • I = 2 A

Hence, The current that would pass through the 30 ohms resistor is 2 A.

A highway patrol car traveling a constant speed of 105 km/h is passed by a speeding car traveling 140 km/h. Exactly 1.00 s after
vodka [1.7K]

Answer:

The elapsed time from when the speeder passes the patrol car until it is caught is 9.24 s.

Explanation:

Hi there!

The position of the patrol car at a time "t" can be calculated using this equation:

x = x0 + v0 · t + 1/2 · a · t²

Where:

x = position of the patrol car at a time "t"

x0 = initial position.

v0 = initial velocity.

t = time.

a = acceleration.

For the speeding car, the equation is the same only that the acceleration is zero. Then, the equation gets reduced to this:

x = x0 + v · t

Where "v" is the constant velocity.

First, let´s convert the velocity units into m/s:

140 km/h · 1000 m / 1 km · 1 h / 3600 s = 38.9 m/s

105 km/h · 1000 m / 1 km · 1 h / 3600 s = 29.2 m/s

We have to find how much time it takes the patrol car to catch the speeder after the speeder passes the patrol car.

When the patrol car catches the speeder, the position of both cars is the same:

position of the patrol car = position of the speeder

x0 + v0 · t + 1/2 · a · t² = x0 + v · t

if we place the origin of the frame of reference at the point where the patrol car starts accelerating (1 s after the speeder passes the patrol car) then, the initial position of the patrol car will be zero, while the initial position of the speeder will be the traveled distance in 1 s:

x = v · t

x = 38.9 m/s · 1 s = 38.9 m

When the patrol car accelerates, the speeder is 38.9 m ahead of it. Then:

x0 + v0 · t + 1/2 · a · t² = x0 + v · t

0 + 29.2 m/s · t + 1/2 · 3.50 m/s² · t² = 38.9 m + 38.9 m/s · t

Let´s agrupate terms and equalize to zero:

-38.9 m - 38.9 m/s · t + 29.2 m/s · t + 1.75 m/s² · t² = 0

-38.9 m - 9.70 m/s · t + 1.75 m/s² · t² = 0

Solving the quadratic equation for t using the quadratic formula:

t = 8.24 s  (the other solution is discarded because it is negative)

The elapsed time from when the speeder passes the patrol car until it is caught is (8.24 s + 1.00) 9.24 s.
