They tend to be lustrous, ductile, malleable, and good conductors of electricity, while nonmetals are generally brittle (for solid nonmetals), lack lustre, and are insulators. Use google.

Svetradugi [14.3K]

Hello. This question is incomplete. The full question is:

A conducting sphere contains positive charge distributed uniformly over its surface. Which statements about the potential due to this sphere are true? All potentials are measured relative to infinity. (There may be more than one correct choice.)

A) The potential is lowest, but not zero, at the center of the sphere.  B) The potential at the center of the sphere is zero.  C) The potential at the center of the sphere is the same as the potential at the surface.  D) The potential at the surface is higher than the potential at the center.  E) The potential at the center is the same as the potential at infinity

Answer:

C) The potential at the center of the sphere is the same as the potential at the surface.

Explanation:

When a conductive sphere has charges that distribute evenly on its surface, it means that its interior has a zero charge cap. As a result, the outside of this sphere has a charge distribution that will be the same if the center of the sphere were charged. In this way, the center and the surface of the sphere become identical in relation to the point charge potential. In other words, this means that the null interior of the sphere has a constant potential that makes the distribution of charges within the sphere exactly equal to the distribution of charges outside the sphere.

A soccer ball kicked with a force of 12.5 N accelerates at 6.2 m/s’ to the right. What is the mass of the ball? Answer in units
stepladder [879]

Answer:

m = 2.01[kg]

Explanation:

This problem can be solved using Newton's second law which tells us that the force applied on a body is equal to the product of mass by acceleration.

F =m*a

where:

F = force = 12.5 [N]

m = mass [kg]

a = acceleration = 6.2 [m/s²]

12.5=m*6.2\\m = 2.01[kg]

If something is hot, does it contain heat or thermal energy?
zysi [14]
I am absolutely sure that if something is hot,  it contain thermal energy only because <span>if a given body is heated its electrons start to move very fast which means that thermal energy is being produced. Hope everything is clear! Regards!</span>

When an astronomer sees certain stars and galaxies that look much redder than expected, what conclusion might the astronomer dra
Ratling [72]

It all comes to the doppler effect, the red shift means that the galaxy is moving away from us. The redshift is a result from the doppler effect, so as the galaxy moves away the wavelength expands, increasing the wavelength which responds to the red light.

What is the magnitude of the total acceleration of point A after 2 seconds? The bar starts from rest and has a constant angular
monitta

Answer:

a_total = 2 √ (α² + w⁴) ,   a_total = 2,236 m

Explanation:

The total acceleration of a body, if we use the Pythagorean theorem is

          a_total² = a_T²2 + a_{c}²

where

the centripetal acceleration is

  a_{c} = v² / r = w r²

tangential acceleration

   a_T = dv / dt

angular and linear acceleration are related

         a_T = α  r

we substitute in the first equation

       a_total = √ [(α r)² + (w r² )²]

       a_total = 2 √ (α² + w⁴)

Let's find the angular velocity for t = 2 s if we start from rest wo = 0

        w = w₀ + α t

        w = 0 + 1.0 2

        w = 2.0rad / s

       

we substitute

        a_total = r √(1² + 2²) = r √5

        a_total = r 2,236

In order to finish the calculation we need the radius to point A, suppose that this point is at a distance of r = 1 m

         a_total = 2,236 m
