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]3 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.

what will the stopping distance be a a 3000-kg car if -3000N of force are applied when the car is traveling 10 m/s
Inga [223]

Answer:

50 m

Explanation:

Acceleration= force/mass

3000/3000=1m/s^-2

Applying equation of motion:

V^2=U^2+2as; V is final velocity, u is initial velocity, a is acceleration and s is the distance covered.

0=10^2 -2*1s;

Solve for s

A 2.0-kg ball rolls to the right at 3.0 m/s. A 4.0-kg ball rolls to the left at 2.0 m/s . What is the momentum of the system aft
charle [14.2K]

Answer:

Final momentum after a head on collision is -2kgm/s

Explanation:

         One ball moves to the right and the other moves opposite  and momentum is a vector quantity so that considering the direction

Initial momenta are        P₁=2x3=6kgm/s        P₂=4x(-2)=-8kgm/s      

Final momentum is the vector sum of P(final)= 6-8= -2 kgm/s
