Answer:

Explanation:

On rubbing a glass rod with silk, the electrons from the glass rod get transferred to the silk. The silk now has an excess of electrons and so is negatively-charged. On the other hand, the glass rod is deficient in electrons and hence is positively-charged.

In the above case, the silk undergoes negative electrification.

Now, when the positively charged glass rod is touched on the disc of a negatively charged gold leaf electroscope, the electrons shifts towards rod, hence amount of charge on gold leaves decreases and the divergence between the gold leaves decreases as unlike charges attract each other.

Hence, the divergence decreases when a glass rod rubbed with silk is brought near the disc of negatively charged electroscope.

hope it helps pls mark me as brainliest

If you were to apply a force of 15N to a medicine ball with a mass of 10kg, what would its acceleration be
tresset_1 [31]

One of the equations for force is:  Force = mass × acceleration.

The force and mass are given and so:

F=15N

m=10kg

By plugging in these values we obtain:

F=ma\\\\15=10(a)\\

\frac{15}{10}=\frac{10(a)}{10}\\\\a=\frac{15}{10}=1.5m/s^2

So the acceleration is a=1.5m/s^2

Pluto was laying at rest in the sun and notices the smell of meat. He runs at 8 m/s to the smell of the meat. How fast is the do
Gnesinka [82]

Given parameters:

Initial velocity(body is at rest) = 0m/s

Final velocity = 8m/s

Time of acceleration  = 2s

Unknown:

Acceleration of the dog = ?

Acceleration is defined as the change in velocity with time.

Mathematically;

              Acceleration  = \frac{Final velocity - Initial velocity}{time taken}

         Now input the given parameters and solve;

         Acceleration  = \frac{8-0}{2}

         Acceleration  = 4m/s²

The dog is accelerating at a rate of 4m/s²

What does the term greenhouse effect mean in regard to earth’s atmosphere
morpeh [17]

Answer:

The greenhouse effect is a natural process that warms the Earth’s surface.

Explanation:

Solar radiation heats Earth surface. When solar radiation reaches to Earth a certain level of radiation is being absorbed by Earth and rest of the radiation is being reflected to space. But because of greenhouse gasses (such as water vapour, carbon dioxide, methane, nitrous oxide, ozone and some artificial chemicals such as chlorofluorocarbons) that exist in Earth atmosphere reflected radiation is being absorbed by atmosphere. If greenhouse gasses percentages raises into Earth atmosphere, the more radiation will be absorbed. Therefore, heat level of Earth is going to be raised.

The rocky planets are made of material that is much (mire/less) dense than the outer planets.​
IRINA_888 [86]

The outer planets (Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune) are called the "<u>GAS</u> giants".

The rocky planets are called "rocky" because they're made of <u>ROCK</u>.

Does this help guide you to the correct choice ?

Here's another hint:  The MOST dense planet in our solar system, the one we call "Earth", is one of the 'rocky planets'.
