How is a net electric charge produced​

Physics
1 answer:
Vlad [161]3 years ago
4 0

If an object has more protons than electrons, then the net charge on the object is positive. If there are more electrons than protons, then the net charge on the object is negative. If there are equal numbers of protons and electrons, then the object is electrically neutral.

How much work is done on an object that is moved to acquire a displacement of 5 meters when 500 Newtons of force was exerted?​
grandymaker [24]

Answer:

2,500 Joules (J) or Newton Meter (N M)

Explanation:

Work = Force x Distance

The force in this equation is 500 Newtons. The distance (displacement) is 5 meters. Plug it into the equation above.

Work = 5m x 500n

Work = 2,500 Joules or Newton-Meters.

Therefore 2,500 Joules or Newton Meters of work is done on an object.

A paperweight consists of a 8.55-cm-thick plastic cube. Within the plastic a thin sheet of paper is embedded, parallel to opposi
ella [17]

Answer:

\mu=1.5322

Explanation:

Given:

Thickness of the paperweight cube, x=8.55\ cm

apparent depth from one side of the inbuilt paper in the plastic cube, i=4.02\ cm

apparent depth from the other side of the inbuilt paper in the plastic cube, i'=1.56\ cm

Now as we know that refractive index is given as:

\rm \mu=\frac{real\ depth}{apparent\ depth}

  • Let the real depth form first side of the slab be, d
  • Then the depth from the second side of the slab will be, d'=x-d=8.55-d

Since refractive index for an amorphous solid is an isotropic quantity so it remains same in all the direction for this plastic.

\mu=\mu'

\frac{d}{i} =\frac{d'}{i'}

\frac{d}{4.02}=\frac{8.55-d}{1.56}

d=6.1597\ cm

Now the refractive index:

\mu=\frac{d}{i}

\mu=\frac{6.1596}{4.02}

\mu=1.5322

A radar operates at a wavelength of 3 centimeters. what is the frequency of the these waves? the speed of light is 3 × 108 m/s .
aliya0001 [1]
We are given information:
λ = wavelength = 3cm = 0.03m \\ 
c = speed of light =  3* 10^{8}m/s

Formula that connects wavelength and frequency is:
frequency= \frac{speed of light}{wavelength} \\ f= \frac{3* 10^{8}}{0.03} \\ f=1 * 10^{10} Hz = 10GHz

Why is speed greater at the end of a ramp than it is at the beginning of a ramp?
UkoKoshka [18]
At the begging nothing is happening, but when you push it, it gains speed that is why the end of a ramp is faster.

A projectile is fired horizontally off the top of a cliff with an initial velocity of 30 m/s. It hits the ground 2.0 seconds lat
Mandarinka [93]

Answer:

The horizontal distance traveled by the projectile is 60 m

Explanation:

Given;

initial horizontal velocity of the projectile, Vₓ = 30 m/s

time of the motion of the projectile, t = 2 s

The horizontal distance traveled by the projectile is given by the range of the projection;

X = Vₓt

X = 30 x 2

X = 60 m

Therefore, the horizontal distance traveled by the projectile is 60 m
