Answer:
C. A rubber rod and a glass rod charged this way have opposite charges on them.
Explanation:
When a rubber rod is rubbed against cat fur, it acquires a negative charge, it becomes negatively charged.
When you then try to bring two rubber rod's together, they repel because like charges repel.
Meanwhile, when you rub a glass rod against silk, it loses electrons to the silk material and becomes positively charged.
When you bring two positively charged glass rod's together, they repel, because like charges repel.
However, when you bring the rubber rod and a glass rod together, the attract each other because unlike/opposite charges attract.
Because the coefficient of friction depends on the surface
Answer:
Fc = 89.67N
Explanation:
Since the rope is unstretchable, the total length will always be 34m.
From the attached diagram, you can see that we can calculate the new separation distance from the tree and the stucked car H as follows:
L1+L2=34m
Replacing this value in the previous equation:
Solving for H:
We can now, calculate the angle between L1 and the 2m segment:
If we make a sum of forces in the midpoint of the rope we get:
where T is the tension on the rope and F is the exerted force of 87N.
Solving for T, we get the tension on the rope which is equal to the force exerted on the car:
