How can an object become charged

Physics

Answer:

An object becomes charged when it loses or gains electrons.

Explanation:

There are three ways to charge an object:

1)friction,

2)conduction

3)induction.

1) Friction involves rubbing on material with another, resulting in electrons moving from one surface to another.

2)Conduction on the other hand is used to charge things that are good conductors, such a metal.

3)The final way to charge an object is by induction and is, again, best for conductive materials.

Answer:

An object gets charged when it's atoms lose or gain an electron to become an ion. For example: ... This means that the fur loses it's electrons to the plastic rod and both objects are now charged. The fur is positively charged because it lost electrons and the rod is negatively charged because it gained electrons

Why are different constellations<br> of stars seen during different<br> seasons?
slamgirl [31]
Actually, they're not.  There's a group of stars and constellations arranged
around the pole of the sky that's visible at any time of any dark, clear night,
all year around.  And any star or constellation in the rest of the sky is visible
for roughly 11 out of every 12 months ... at SOME time of the night. 

Constellations appear to change drastically from one season to the next,
and even from one month to the next, only if you do your stargazing around
the same time every night.

Why does the night sky change at various times of the year ?  Here's how to
think about it:

The Earth spins once a day. You spin along with the Earth, and your clock is
built to follow the sun . "Noon" is the time when the sun is directly over your
head, and "Midnight" is the time when the sun is directly beneath your feet.

Let's say that you go out and look at the stars tonight at midnight, when you're
facing directly away from the sun.

In 6 months from now, when you and the Earth are halfway around on the other
side of the sun, where are those same stars ?  Now they're straight in the
direction of the sun.  So they're directly overhead at Noon, not at Midnight.

THAT's why stars and constellations appear to be in a different part of the sky,
at the same time of night on different dates.

Beryllium has a charge of 2, and bromine has a charge of –1. which is the best name for the ionic bond that forms between them?
Otrada [13]

The best name for the ionic bond that forms between them is Beryllium Bromide.

We have been provided with data,

Beryllium charge, q = 2

Bromine charge, q = -1

As we know the valance electron of Be is +2  and the valance electron of bromine is -1. Since one is metallic and the other is non-metallic.

Now, when they combine they exchange valance electron, and bromine change into bromide so they form Beryllium Bromide.

So, the best name for the ionic bond that forms between them is Beryllium Bromide.

Veronica claims that she can throw a dart at a dartboard from a distance of 2 m and hit the 5 cm wide bullseye if she throws the
wariber [46]
First, find the amount of time for the dart to hit the board using this equation: t = d/v

t = 2 m/ 15 m/s = 0.133 s

Then, find the height the dart has fallen from its initial point using this equation: h = 0.5gt²

h = 0.5(9.81 m/s²)(0.133 s)² = 0.0872 m or 8.72 cm

Since the diameter of the bull's eye is only 5 cm, and you started at the same level of the top of the bull's eye, that means the maximum allowance would only be 5 cm. Since it exceeded to 8.72 cm, it means that <em>Veronica will not hit the bull's eye.</em>

Charlie Brown kicks a football at 24.5 m/s at 35.0. What is the maximum height of the ball?
lozanna [386]

Answer:

d = 10.076 m

Explanation:

We need to obtain the velocity of the ball in the y direction

Vy  = 24.5m/s * sin(35) = 14.053 m/s

To obtain the distance, we use the formula

vf^2 = v0^2 -2*g*d

but vf = 0

d = -vo^2/2g

d = (14.053)^2/2*(9.8) = 10.076 m
