Determine the distribution of charges on the sphere if it is made of non-conducting plastic.

Answer:

If the sphere is made of a non-conducting material, charges can´t distribute freely over its surface or volume. In non-conducting material bodies, charges can be transported from a molecule to another nearest to it. Therefore if you rub an object with a positive charge with this sphere made of non-conducting plastic, the object will rip some negative charges (electrons) of that zone of the sphere. Therefore that zone will get a superficial positive charge density, but the non-affected zone of the sphere will keep having a null charge density.

9. A 50 kg physics i student trudges from the 1st floor to the 3rd floor, going up a total height of 13 m.

SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Answer:

6370 J

Explanation:

By the law of energy conservation, the work done by the student would be the change in potential enegy from 1st floor to 3rd floor, or a change of 13 m

$W = E_p = mgh$

where m = 50kg is the mass of the student, g = 9.8 m/s2 is the gravitational constant and h = 13 m is the height difference

$W = 50*9.8*13 = 6370 J$

The universal law of gravitation states that the force of attraction between two objects depends on which quantities?

Ronch [10]

Answer:

D. the masses of the objects and the distance between them

Explanation:

Gravitation is a force, a force doesn't care about the shape or density of objects, only about their masses... and distances.

And you can get it using the following equation:

$f = \frac{Gm_{1}m_{2} }{d^{2} }$

Where :

G is the universal gravitational constant : G = 6.6726 x 10-11N-m2/kg2

m represent the mass of each of the two objects

d is the distance between the centers of the objects.

A steel ball of mass 50 g is rolled from the left toward a ball of lead of mass 500 g. The steel ball is traveling with a veloci

alina1380 [7]

Answer: It's hard to say without characterizing the collision. But it will be either A if the collision is totally in-elastic, or B if the collision is totally elastic. It could be anywhere in between for partially elastic collisions.

Explanation:

momentum is conserved, so initial system momentum will be left to right.

The velocity of the center of mass is 50(5) / 550 = 0.4545... m/s

In an elastic collision, the lead ball will move off at twice that speed or 0.91 m/s to the right.

The steel ball will bounce back and move away at 0.91 - 5 = -4.1 m/s . The negative sign indicates the steel ball has reversed course and has negative momentum

In a totally in-elastic collision, both balls would move to the right at 0.45 m/s. The steel ball will still have positive momentum.
