The local charging of the comb is due to induction. The negative object's charge pushes electrons in the comb away from the side close to the charged object causing that part to be positively charged. Note that the comb's net charge is still zero provided it doesn't touch the object. When you move the comb away its electrons will redistribute.

In the Biomedical and Physical Sciences building at MSU there are 135 steps from the ground floor to the sixth floor. Each step
satela [25.4K]

Answer:

W = 16.5 Kj

P = 49.9 Watt

E = 16471

Explanation:

m = 73.5kg

t = 5min 30sec = (5×60) + 30 = 330sec

each step = 16.6cm = 0.166m

h = 135×0.166 = 22.41 m

g = 10 m/s²

(i) W = F × s = W × h = mgh

W = 73.5×10×22.41 = 16471.35

W = 16.5 Kj

(ii) Power = workdone/time

P = 16471.35/330

P = 49.9 Watt

(iii) The energy burnt in this process = 16471

A 2-kg cart, traveling on a horizontal air track with a speed of 3m/s, collides with a stationary 4-kg cart. The carts stick tog
ladessa [460]

Answer:

The impulse exerted by one cart on the other has a magnitude of 4 N.s.

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the first cart, m₁ = 2 kg

initial speed of the first car, u₁ = 3 m/s

mass of the second cart, m₂ = 4 kg

initial speed of the second cart, u₂ = 0

Let the final speed of both carts = v, since they stick together after collision.

Apply the principle of conservation of momentum to determine v

m₁u₁ + m₂u₂ = v(m₁ + m₂)

2 x 3 + 0 = v(2 + 4)

6 = 6v

v = 1 m/s

Impulse is given by;

I = ft = mΔv = m(

The impulse exerted by the first cart on the second cart is given;

I = 2 (3 -1 )

I = 4 N.s

The impulse exerted by the second cart on the first cart is given;

I = 4(0-1)

I = - 4 N.s (equal in magnitude but opposite in direction to the impulse exerted by the first).

Therefore, the impulse exerted by one cart on the other has a magnitude of 4 N.s.

Can someone please help me with science.

On the dog's return trip (between <em>t</em> = 10 and <em>t</em> = 12.5 seconds), the slope of the position function is steeper than during the first 5 seconds, which means the dog ran home faster. The only option that captures this is D.

You can check to make sure that the dog indeed runs twice as fast on the return trip. The slope of the position function during the first 5 seconds is

(change in position) / (change in time) = (5 - 0) / (5 - 0) = 5/5 = 1

while during the return trip, it is

(0 - 5) / (12.5 - 10) = -5/2.5 = -2

Ignoring the sign (which only indicates the direction in which the dog was running), we see that the dog's speed on the return trip was indeed twice as high as during the first 5 s.

A motorist drives north for 36.0 minutes at 96.0 km/h and then stops for 15.0 minutes. He then continues north, traveling 130 km
Over [174]

Answer:

a) d=187.6km

b)v=61.5km/h

Explanation:

First we convert our minutes to hours so we work always in the same units.

36min=36min(\frac{1h}{60min})=0.6h

15min=15min(\frac{1h}{60min})=0.25h

Where we used the fact that 1 hour are 60 min, thus the multiplying factor is equal to 1 (not altering the time, just changing the units).

a) On the first part the motorist travels a distance d_1=v_1t_1=(96km/h)(0.6h)=57.6km, and on the second part he travels d_2=130km.

The total displacement is d=d_1+d_2=57.6km+130km=187.6km

b) The average velocity is the relation between the total displacement and the time taken to cover it. Our total time is t=0.6h+0.25h+2.2h=3.05h, thus we have:

v=\frac{187.6km}{3.05h}=61.5km/h
