A 0.00275 kg air‑inflated balloon is given an excess negative charge q1 =−3.50×10−8 C by rubbing it with a blanket. It is found

that a charged rod can be held above the balloon at a distance of d = 0.0640 m to make the balloon float.
1) In order for this to occur, what polarity of charge must the rod possess?
q2 is ___________

a) negative
b) proton
c) neutral
d) positive

2) How much charge, q2, does the rod have?

Assume the balloon and rod to be point charges. The Coulomb force constant is 1/(4o)8.99 x10 N m2/C2 and the acceleration due to gravity g-9.81 m/s2 O negative 42 is proton O neutral positive Number Tools x 102

Answer:

1)  \rm q_2 is<u> positive.</u>

<u></u>

2) \rm q_2=4.56\times 10^{-10}\ C.

Explanation:

<h2><u>Part 1:</u></h2>

<u></u>

The charged rod is held above the balloon and the weight of the balloon acts in downwards direction. To balance the weight of the balloon, the force on the balloon due to the rod must be directed along the upwards direction, which is only possible when the rod exerts an attractive force on the balloon and the electrostatic force on the balloon due to the rod is attractive when the polarities of the charge on the two are different.

Thus, In order for this to occur, the polarity of charge on the rod must be positive, i.e., \rm q_2 is <u>positive.</u>

<u></u>

<h2><u>Part 2:</u></h2>

<u></u>

<u>Given:</u>

  • Mass of the balloon, m = 0.00275 kg.
  • Charge on the balloon, \rm q_1 = -3.50\times 10^{-8}\ C.
  • Distance between the rod and the balloon, d = 0.0640 m.
  • Acceleration due to gravity, \rm g = 9.81\ m/s^2.

In order to balloon to be float in air, the weight of the balloom must be balanced with the electrostatic force on the balloon due to rod.

Weight of the balloon, \rm W = mg = 0.00275\times 9.81=2.70\times 10^{-2}\ N.

The magnitude of the electrostatic force on the balloon due to the rod is given by

\rm F_e = \dfrac{1}{4\pi \epsilon_o}\dfrac{|q_1||q_2|}{d^2}.

\rm \dfrac{1}{4\pi \epsilon_o} is the Coulomb's constant.

For the elecric force and the weight to be balanced,

\rm F_e = W\\\dfrac{1}{4\pi \epsilon_o}\dfrac{|q_1||q_2|}{d^2}=W\\8.99\times 10^9\times \dfrac{3.50\times10^{-8}\times |q_2| }{0.0640^2}=2.70\times 10^{-2}\\|q_2| = \dfrac{2.70\times 10^{-2}\times 0.00640^2}{8.99\times 10^9\times 2.70\times 10^{-7}}=4.56\times 10^{-10}\ C.

Citrus2011 [14]

Answer:

False, because current flow has no effect in the weight of a conductor.

Explanation:

Current flow has no effect in the weight of a conductor. Thus, the weight on the scale will be the same when current is flowing and when current is not flowing in the copper tube.

Therefore, If a copper tube has current flowing to the right in the presence of a magnetic field going forward ("into the board"), we expect the weight on the scale to be the same whether current is flowing or not.

What is the volume of water in 150ml of the 35% w/w of sucrose solution with a specific gravity of 1.115?
pentagon [3]

Answer:108.71 mL

Explanation:

Given

Volume of sample V=150 mL

concentration of sucrose solution 35 % w/w i.e. In  100 gm of sample 35 gm is sucrose

specific gravity =1.115

Density of solution \rho _s=1.115\times density\ of\ water

Thus

\rho _s=1.15\times 1 gm/mL=1.115\ gm/mL

mass of sample M=1.115\times 150=167.25\ gm

mass of sucrose m_s=0.35\times 167.25=58.53\ gm

mass of Water m_w=108.71 gm

Volume of water =108.71\times 1=108.781 mL
