Bits of paper are attracted to an electrified comb or rod, even though they have nonet charge. How is this possible?

Physics
1 answer:
SashulF [63]4 years ago
7 0

Explanation:

An electrified comb is charged comb ( let say by running it through the hair) and when it is brought in the proximity of  pieces of paper, the pieces tend to cling to it. This happens because the charged comb induces an opposite charge in the paper pieces and as opposite charges attract each other, the pieces are clinged.

A water wheel rotates with a period of 2.26 s. If the water wheel has a radius of l.94 m,
Dafna11 [192]

Answer:

The correct answer is B)

Explanation:

When a wheel rotates without sliding, the straight-line distance covered by the wheel's center-of-mass is exactly equal to the rotational distance covered by a point on the edge of the wheel.  So given that the distances and times are same, the translational speed of the center of the wheel amounts to or becomes the same as the rotational speed of a point on the edge of the wheel.

The formula for calculating the velocity of a point on the edge of the wheel is given as

V_{r} = 2π r / T

Where

π is Pi which mathematically is approximately 3.14159

T is period of time

Vr is Velocity of the point on the edge of the wheel

The answer is left in Meters/Seconds so we will work with our information as is given in the question.

Vr = (2 x 3.14159 x 1.94m)/2.26

Vr = 12.1893692/2.26

Vr = 5.39352619469

Which is approximately 5.39

Cheers!

A horizontal spring with stiffness 0.4 N/m has a relaxed length of 11 cm (0.11 m). A mass of 21 grams (0.021 kg) is attached and
riadik2000 [5.3K]

Answer:

0.6983 m/s

Explanation:

k = spring constant of the spring = 0.4 N/m

L₀ = Initial length = 11 cm = 0.11 m

L = Final length = 27 cm = 0.27 m

x = stretch in the spring = L - L₀ = 0.27 - 0.11 = 0.16 m

m = mass of the mass attached = 0.021 kg

v = speed of the mass

Using conservation of energy

Kinetic energy of mass = Spring potential energy

(0.5) m v² = (0.5) k x²

m v² = k x²

(0.021) v² = (0.4) (0.16)²

v = 0.6983 m/s

Heavy crate sits at rest on the floor of a warehouse. you push on the crate with a force of 400 n, and it doesn't budge. what is
maks197457 [2]

Heavy crate sits at rest on the floor of a warehouse. you push on the crate with a force of 400 N, and it doesn't budge. The magnitude of the friction force on the crate in Newton is 400N

This is due to Friction force, which is defined as the resisting force that acts on a body when it is at rest (Static friction) or when it is in motion (Kinetic friction).

When a force is applied on a stationary body, the force of static friction starts to act on the body which prevents any relative motion between the object and surface. The magnitude of friction increases up to μsN, where μs is the coefficient of static friction. As the crate didn't budge, it means the amount of force applied was less than μsN. Hence the force applied was canceled by an equal and opposite amount of frictional force which was equal to 400N.
