If you place a large number of electrons in one small spot on a conductor, they immediately redistribute themselves on the surfa

ce because they repel one another. What happens if you place a large number of electron in one small are on the surface of an insulator?
O They immediately redistribute themselves on the surface of the insulator because they repel one another.
O They stay in the area in which they were initially deposited for a relatively long time because they are not free to move about the insulator.
O They immediately redistribute themselves throughout the entire volume of the insulator because they repel one another.

Answer:

They stay in the area in which they were initially deposited for a relatively long time because they are not free to move about the insulator.

Explanation:

If we place large number of electrons in a small area of an insulating surface then the charges will remain in their place for a longer period of time because the charges do not get a path to flow despite the repulsion between them.

Insulators do not have conducting electrons free to carry the charges apart from  each other whereas the metal have a sea of electrons free for the conduction of charges.

kipiarov [429]

Answer:

Increase in temperature

Increase in pressure

Explanation:

For the rate of collisions to increase, It can happen in various ways

1. The gasses can be made to move faster: This can be done by increasing their temperature. An increase in the temperature of the gases directly relates to a corresponding increase in their kinetic energy. This means that the molecules of the gases can move with a greater velocity, which will increase collision rates.

2. The volume of the container can be reduced: Consider this; If the container is made smaller, the molecules of the gases will have less space to move about. This means that they will be bumping into the walls of the container more frequently. This reduction in volume leads to an increase in the pressure of the gas. This is exactly what happens in a piston-cylinder assembly

Humans can typically perceive frequencies that range from 20 Hz–20 kHz. Dogs can hear sounds up to 45 kHz. Dog whistles produce
Aleksandr [31]
Pitch is directly related to the frequency of the sound. In this item, we are given that the frequency of the sound is higher compared to those which are audible to the human being's ears. The pitch therefore of the dog's whistle is high. 

On the other hand, the frequency and the wavelength of a certain wave are inversely proportional. This means that the high frequency wave will have a short wavelength. 

Hence, the answer to this item would have to be "high pitch with a short wavelength" 

The answer to this item is the second option.

Answer:

About 7.67 m/s.

Explanation:

Mechanical energy is always conserved. Hence:

\displaystyle \begin{aligned} E_i & = E_f \\ \\ U_i + K_i &= U_f + K_f\end{aligned}

Where <em>U</em> is potential energy and <em>K</em> is kinetic energy.

Let the bottom of the slide be where potential energy equals zero. As a result, the final potential energy is zero. Additionally, because the child starts from rest, the initial kinetic energy is zero. Thus:

\displaystyle U_i = K_f

Substitute and solve for final velocity:
\displaystyle \begin{aligned} mgh_i &= \frac{1}{2}mv_f^2 \\ \\  2gh_i &= v^2_f \\ \\ v_f &= \sqrt{2gh_i} \\ \\ &  =\sqrt{2(9.8\text{ m/s$^2$})(3.00\text{ m})} \\ \\ & \approx 7.67\text{ m/s} \end{aligned}

In conclusion, the child's speed at the bottom of the slide is about 7.67 m/s.

A ray of light strikes a smooth surface and is reflected. The angle of incidence is 35°. What can be predicted about the angle o
olga_2 [115]
<span>Rays will follow the law of reflection, so the angle of reflection will be 35 degrees. If a</span> light ray strikes a smooth surface, the reflected ray will bounce off the surface with the same angle the ray hits the surface. In other words, the angle of incidence is the same of angle of reflection, which is 35 degrees. If the surface is not smooth, the reflected ray might diffuse in all directions.
