Answer:

1. direct current  2. induction  3. conduction

Explanation:

When we walk barefoot on a carpet there is friction between the carpet surface and the lower surface of the feet which results in the exchange of charges between the two surfaces. During this course the carpet loses electron to the surface of the foot. Now, the charge on the carpet is static because it is an insulator but a human body being a good conductor of electricity has mobility of the charges.(3)

These mobile charges on the surface of a human body spread and look for a path of dissipation to a reservoir. When we bring our hand near a metal it induces an opposite charge near the surface of the metal,(2) this happens within a fraction of seconds. Now there is a positive charge on the nearest point on the metal and the negative charge on its farthest end is induced according to the conservation of charges.

As soon as the hand touches the metal (1)there is a transfer of charge from our body to the metal generating a very small shock. This happens only if we continue to stand on an insulated surface due to which the charge doesn't gets transferred to the ground.

A ball is thrown upward from a height of 432 feet above the​ ground, with an initial velocity of 96 feet per second. From physic
e-lub [12.9K]

Answer;

A)S(t)=96t-16t² +432

B)it will take 9 seconds for the ball to reach the ground.

C)864feet

Explanation:

We were given an initial height of 432 feet.

And v(t)= 96-32t

A) we are to Find​ s(t), the function giving the height of the ball at time t

The position, or heigth, is the integrative of the velocity. So

S(t)= ∫(96-32)dt

S(t)=96t-16t² +K

S(t)=96t-16t² +432

In which the constant of integration K is the initial height, so K= 432

b) we need to know how long will the ball take to reach the​ ground

This is t when S(t)= 0

S(t)=96t-16t² +432

-16t² +96t +432=0

This is quadratic equation, if you solve using factorization method we have

t= -3 or t= 9

Therefore, , t is the instant of time and it must be a positive value.

So it will take 9 seconds for the ball to reach the ground.

C)V=s/t

Velocity= distance/ time

=96=s/9sec

S=96×9

=864feet

State the relation between acceleration and momentum
vredina [299]

Answer:

Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity. Momentum is the mass times the velocity. So if you multiply the mass times the acceleration, you get the rate of change of momentum
