This problem explores the behavior of charge on conductors. We take as an example a long conducting rod suspended by insulating

strings. Assume that the rod is initially electrically neutral. For convenience we will refer to the left end of the rod as end A, and the right end of the rod as end B. In the answer options for this problem, "strongly attracted/repelled" means "attracted/repelled with a force of magnitude similar to that which would exist between two charged balls.A small metal ball is given a negative charge, then brought near (i.e., within about 1/10 the length of the rod) to end A of the rod. What happens to end A of the rod when the ball approaches it closely this first time?

Answer:

rod end A is strongly attracted towards the balls

rod end B is weakly repelled by the ball as it is at a greater distance

Explanation:

When the ball with a negative charge approaches the A end of the neutral bar, the charge of the same sign will repel and as they move they move to the left end, leaving the rod with a positive charge at the A end and a negative charge of equal value at end B.

Therefore rod end A is strongly attracted towards the balls and

rod end B is weakly repelled by the ball as it is at a greater distance

A city planner needs to make a model of the city. In real life, the tallest tree in the city is 40 feet tall. The shortest tree
Verdich [7]
To solve this you must set up what is called a proportion.  A proportion is a way of comparing two comparing values where one of the four values is missing.  In your problem the missing value is the height of the smallest tree in the model.

To set up a proportion, you need all of your values.  The easiest way to do this is to list them:

Highest tree in real life:  40ft
Highest tree in model:  10ft
Smallest tree in real life:  4ft
Smallest tree in model:  x

So know you can set your proportion like this:

40/4 = 4/x

(When setting up a proportion, you always want to have the values belong to each other.  For example don't put the height of the small tree in the model underneath the value of the highest tree in real life.)

So know to find what the x values equals, we need to cross multiply.  And then all that's left after that is to solve for x.

40 times x = 4 times 4

40x = 16

x = 2.5

The smallest tree in the model should equal 2.5 feet.

Hope this helps! :)

A wave transfers:<br> Water<br> particles<br> energy<br> matter
SashulF [63]

Answer:

Particles in a water wave exchange kinetic energy for potential energy. When particles in water become part of a wave, they start to move up or down. This means that kinetic energy (energy of movement) has been transferred to them

maria [59]

Answer:

\lambda=1.37\times 10^{-11}\ m

Explanation:

Give that,

The potential difference of the electrons, V=8\times 10^{3}\ V

We need to find the wavelength of the electrons.

Using the conservation of energy,

2meV=\dfrac{h^2}{\lambda^2}\\\\\lambda=\sqrt{\dfrac{h^2}{2meV}}

Put all the values,

\lambda=\sqrt{\dfrac{(6.63\times 10^{-34})^2}{2\times 9.1\times 10^{-31}\times 1.6\times 10^{-19}\times 8\times 10^3}}\\\\\lambda=1.37\times 10^{-11}\ m

So, the wavelength of the electrons is 1.37\times 10^{-11}\ m.
