Answer:

The length of the solar day will get shorter.

Explanation:

  • The blue planet Earth not only rotates around it's own axis but also rotates around the Sun and everyday it moves a little bit around the axis.
  • Since the speed of the Earth's rotation on it's own axis and around the Sun is constant we don't feel the effects of the rotation.We can only feel the motion if the earth changes it's rotation speed.
  • If by any means or chance the Earth stopped spinning (stopped rotation) then the atmosphere surrounding the Earth would be in motion and all the Earth's land would be scoured clean.

Diano4ka-milaya [45]

Complete Question

A parallel-plate capacitor, with air dielectric, is charged by a battery, after which the battery is disconnected. A slab of glass dielectric is then slowly inserted between the plates. As it is being inserted,  

A :

a force repels the glass out of the capacitor.  

B :

a force attracts the glass into the capacitor.    

C :

no force acts on the glass.      

D :

a net charge appears on the glass.      

E :

the glass makes the plates repel each other.

Answer:

The correct option is B

Explanation:

Generally when the glass dielectric is slowly inserted between the plated,

The positive plate of the capacitor will induce a negative charge on the glass while the negative  plate of the capacitor will induce a positive charge on glass which a electric field that posses an electric force that will attract the glass

A ball is thrown vertically upward with an initial velocity
ivolga24 [154]

Answer:

D

Explanation:

First we define our variables

V0=29.4

a=-9.8

V=0

We have to find the maximum displacement , which I will define as X

We use formula v^2=v0^2+2aX

All we do is substitute our values

0=29.4^2-19.6X

29.4^2=19.6X

X=29.4^2/19.6=44.1

Two charges, each q, are separated by a distance r, and exert mutual attractive forces of F on each other. If both charges becom
jeka57 [31]

Answer:

F = ⅔ F₀

Explanation:

For this exercise we use Coulomb's law

         F = k q₁q₂ / r²

let's use the subscript "o" for the initial conditions

          F₀ = k q² / r²

now the charge changes q₁ = q₂ = 2q and the new distance is r = 3 r

       

we substitute

          F = k 4q² / 9 r²

          F = k q² r² 4/9

          F = ⅔ F₀
