A positively charged rod is brought close to one end of an uncharged metal rod but does not actually touch it. What type of char

Answer:

The end of the neutral rod which is the closest part to the charged rod would acquire a negative charge.

Explanation:

One of the rods is positively charged and one of them is neutral.

And the important part is that <u>they do not touch one another</u>, but get close to each other.

In this case, the end of the neutral rod which is the closest part to the charged rod would acquire a negative charge. This is because of the Coulomb's Law. The opposite charges exert an attractive force to each other. The positive charges attract the negative charges on the neutral rod.

If the resultant of two velocity vectors of equal magnitude is also of the same magnitude, then which statement must be correct?
Tamiku [17]

The correct option is C) The angle between the vectors is 120°.

Why?

We can solve the problem and find the correct option using the Law of Cosine.

Let A and B, the given two sides and R the resultant (sum),

Then,

R=A=B

So, using the law of cosines, we have:

R^{2}=A^{2}+B^{2}+2ABCos(\alpha)\\ \\A^{2}=A^{2}+A^{2}+2*A*A*Cos(\alpha)\\\\0=A^{2}+2*A^{2}*Cos(\alpha)\\\\Cos(\alpha)=-\frac{A^{2}}{2*A^{2}}=-\frac{1}{2}\\\\\alpha =Cos(-\frac{1}{2})^{-1}=120\°

Hence, we have that the angle between the vectors is 120°. The correct option is C) The angle between the vectors is 120°

Have a nice day!

Which wave must have a medium to travel?
o-na [289]

Letter B

without a medium, there is nothing to compress, hence, no wave. A fast- medium like a gas (air) is easy to compress and allows waves to move through it easily. a slow medium, like a liquid, is still pretty fast, but not as fast as air.

Two astronauts are 2.00 m apart in their spaceship. One speaks to the other. The conversation is transmitted to earth via electr
Eduardwww [97]

Answer:

D=1693742.7m

Explanation:

For sound waves we have v=d/t where v is the speed of sound and d the distance between the astronauts, while for electromagnetic waves we have c=D/t where c is the speed of light and D the distance between the spaceship and Earth. <em>We have written both times as the same</em> because is what is imposed by the problem, so we have t=d/v=D/c, which means:

D=\frac{dc}{v}

And for our values:

D=\frac{(2m)(299792458m/s)}{354m/s}=1693742.7m
