Answer:

that initially the weather vane was at rest, by this load that remained on the pole it would begin to move.

Explanation:

Let us carefully analyze the situation, when the bar is facing the index post a load of equal magnitude, but opposite sign on its surface, these two charges are in balance; When the hand touches the pole, it creates a path to the ground where the charges that were induced on the pole can be balanced with the charge coming from the ground, leaving a zero charge on the pole.

 

   Now if the hand is removed, there can be no exchange of charges with the earth. When the bar is removed, the induced loads are redistributed in the post, but the excess loads that came from the earth that have the same value and are of a sign opposite to the induced ones remain, you want to sign that they are of the same sign as the charges of the bar.

   In summary, after the process, the post has a load of equal magnitude and sign (negative) that of the bar.

   If we assume that initially the weather vane was at rest, by this load that remained on the pole it would begin to move.

What happens when solar energy heats a body of water?
Nataliya [291]
Explanation: Evaporation happens when a liquid substance becomes a gas. When water is heated, it evaporates. The molecules move and vibrate so quickly that they escape into the atmosphere as molecules of water vapor (Dunn,1993).

A spring is hung from the ceiling. When a block is attached to its end, it stretches 2.6 cm before reaching its new equilibrium
Kaylis [27]

Answer:

f = 3.09 Hz

Explanation:

This is a simple harmonic motion exercise where the angular velocity is

         w² = \frac{k}{m}

to find the constant (k) of the spring, we use Hooke's law with the initial data

         F = - kx

where the force is the weight of the body that is hanging

        F = W = m g

we substitute

        m g = - k x

        k = - \frac{m g}{x}

we calculate

        k = - \frac{9.8 m}{- 2.6 \ 10^{-2}}

        k = 3.769 10² m

we substitute in the first equation

       w² = \frac{ 3.769 \ 10^2 \ m }{m}

       w = 19.415 rad / s

angular velocity and frequency are related

       w = 2πf

        f = \frac{w}{2\pi }

        f = 19.415 / 2pi

        f = 3.09 Hz
