I would think that you would be using more force on your muscles to make your self go up the stairs quicker. the is the difference between a casual walk and full on running

17.Explain the different ways that an object can become electrically charged.
Debora [2.8K]

17.

There are three different methods for charging objects:

- Friction: in friction, two objects are rubbed against each other. As a result, electrons can be passed from one object to the other, so one object will gain a net negative charge while the other object will gain a net positive charge due to the lack of electrons.

- Conduction: this occurs when two conductive objects are put in contact with each other, and charges (electrons, usually) are transferred from one object to the other one.

- Induction: this occurs when two objects are brought closer to each other, but not in contact. If one of the two objects has a net charge (different from zero) on its surface, then it will induce a movement of charges in the second object: in particular, in the second object, charges of the opposite polarity will be attracted towards the first object, while charges of same polarity will be repelled further away.

18.

Charged objects produce around themselves an electric field. The strenght of the electric field is given by (assuming the charged objects are spherical)

E=k\frac{q}{r^2}

where k is the Coulomb's constant, q is the magnitude of the charge and r the distance from the centre of the charge. As we see, the strength of the field is inversely proportional to the square of the distance.

Also, the direction of the field is determined by the sign of the charge:

- if the charge is positive, the electric field points away from the charge (this means that other positive charges in the field will be repelled away)

- if the charge is negative, the electric field points towards the charge (this means that other positive charges in the field will be attracted towards it)

19.

Electrical force is given by:

F=k\frac{q_1 q_2}{r^2}

where k is the Coulomb's constant, q1 and q2 are the two charges, and r their separation.

Gravitational force is given by:

F=G\frac{m_1 m_2}{r^2}

where G is the gravitational constant, m1 and m2 are the masses of the two objects, and r their separation.

Similarities between the two forces:

- Both are inversely proportional to the square of the distance between the two objects, r

- Both are non-contact forces (the two objects can experience the forces even if they are not in contact)

- Both forces have infinite range

Differencies between the two forces:

- The electric force can be either attractive or repulsive, while the gravitational force is attractive only

- The electric force is much stronger than the gravitational force, due to the much larger value of the Coulomb's constant k compared to the gravitational constant G

A sewing machine uses 1.6kWh of electricity in one day. If electricity costs 9p per unit, what is the total cost in pence of usi
atroni [7]

Answer:

\huge\boxed{\sf 1.6\ units = 14.4p}

Explanation:

Since,

<h3><u>1 kWh = 1 unit</u></h3>

So,

1.6 kWh = 1.6 units

If,

<h3>1 unit = 9p</h3>

1.6 units = 9p × 1.6

1.6 units = 14.4p

9. A 50 kg physics i student trudges from the 1st floor to the 3rd floor, going up a total height of 13 m.
SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Answer:

6370 J

Explanation:

By the law of energy conservation, the work done by the student would be the change in potential enegy from 1st floor to 3rd floor, or a change of 13 m

W = E_p = mgh

where m = 50kg is the mass of the student, g = 9.8 m/s2 is the gravitational constant and h = 13 m is the height difference

W = 50*9.8*13 = 6370 J

Starting from rest, how far will a brick fall if it is going 15 m/s and accelerates at a rate of 9.8 m/s2?
masha68 [24]

Answer:

11.48 m

Explanation:

A brick starts from rest and gains a speed of 15 m/s and accelerates at 9.8 m/s^2

u = 0

v= 15

a= 9.8

s= ?

V^2 = U^2 + 2as

15^2 = 0^2 + 2 × 9.8×s

225= 19.6s

s= 225/19.6

s = 11.48m

Hence the brick will fall 11.48 m
