Two neutral metal spheres on wood stands are touching. A negatively charged rod is held directly above the top of the left spher

e, not quite touching it. While the rod is there, the right sphere is moved so that the spheres no longer touch. Then the rod is withdrawn. Afterward, what is the charge state of each sphere? Use charge diagrams to explain your answer.
A. Both the spheres are neutral.
B. The left sphere is negatively charged, the right sphere is charged positively.
C. The right sphere is negatively charged, the left sphere is charged positively.
D. Both the spheres are charged positively.
E. Both the spheres are charged negatively.

Answer:

The right sphere is negatively charged, the left sphere is charged positively.

Explanation:

When a negatively charged rod is held above the top of left sphere, the rod will attract positive charges and repel negative charges. As the sphere are initially touching each other so positive charges from the both spheres will moves toward the rod. When we separate the spheres positive charges from right sphere have already moved toward the rod i.e. left sphere, creating a deficiency of positive charges in the right sphere and excessiveness of positive charges in left sphere , hence the right sphere will remain negatively charged and left sphere will remain positively charged.

sweet-ann [11.9K]
Finding out the acceleration 12/3 = 4m/s^2
thus it is descending so the actual acceleration would be 9.8-4 = 5.8 m/s^2
the weight will be 90*5.8 = 522 N
522/9.8 = 53.2 kg

A girl throws a marshmallow that lands in her friend’s mouth 2 m away. The girl threw the marshmallow at an angle of 30 degrees.
natima [27]

She threw the marshmallow at a speed of around 4.76 m/s.The formula for the horizontal range gives the velocity.

<h3>What is projectile motion?</h3>

The motion of an item hurled or projected into the air, subject only to gravity's acceleration, is known as projectile motion.

The item is known as a projectile, and the course it takes is known as a trajectory. Falling object motion is a simple one-dimensional kind of projectile motion with no horizontal movement.

Given data;

The marshmallow was thrown at a distance of 2 meters

Range,R =  3 m

Initial velocity,u

The angle at which the marshmallow was thrown,θ = 30°

The acceleration due to gravity,g = 9.81 m/s²

The projectile's motion is divided into two parts: horizontal and vertical motion.

\rm R = \frac{u^2sin2 \theta }{g} \\\\ \rm R  = \frac{u^2sin2 \times (30) }{9.81} \\\\ u^2=\frac{2 \times 9.81 }{sin 60^0} \\\\ u^2=22.66 \\\\ u=4.76 \ m/sec

Hence, she throws the marshmallow at a speed of 4.76 m/sec.

2. Below what depth would a submarine have to submerge so that it would not be swayed by surface waves with a wavelength of 24 m
Travka [436]

<u>Answer:</u> Below 12m of depth, the submarine has to submerge so that it would not be swayed by surface waves

<u>Explanation:</u>

To avoid the surface waves, a submarine has to submerge below the wave base. It is the position below which the motion of the waves is negligible.

This wave base is equal to half of the wavelength. The equation becomes:

Wave base = \frac{\text{Wavelength}}{2}

We are given:

Wavelength = 24 m

Putting values in above equation, we get:

Wave base = \frac{24m}{2}=12m

Hence, below 12m of depth, the submarine has to submerge so that it would not be swayed by surface waves

If the pressure acting on a given sample of an ideal gas at constant temperature is tripled, what happens to the volume of the g
oee [108]

Answer:

Explanation:

According to Boyle's law  for constant temperature of gas Pressure is inversely proportional to the volume of gas.

PV=nRT

PV=constant

P\propto \frac{1}{V}

if Pressure is tripled then

P\times V_1=3P\times V_2

V_2=\frac{V_1}{3}

Volume becomes one-third of original volume
