Jermaine and Lashonda each rub their dry hair with inflated balloons. While doing this, the other students notice that their hai

r is starting to stick straight out. Next, the teacher takes the balloons and places them right next to one another. However, the balloons will not stay next to each other, as they normally would. Instead, they spring apart in opposite directions. What is causing these balloons to push each other away?

too much static electricity can cause a negative reaction such as the balloons repelling away from one another.

Answer: They have each gained negative charge from the hair rubbing, and like charges repel each other.

A constant force = 2.00 n + 3.00 n acts on a 5.00 kg object as it moves in a straight line from the position1 = 1.00 m + 1.00 m
nata0808 [166]

force acting on the object is given as

F = 2.00\hat i + 3.00 \hat j

initial and final positions are given as

r_i = 1.00 \hat i + 1.00\hat j

r_f = 4.00 \hat i - 1.00\hat j

now the displacement is given as

d = r_f - r_i

d = (4.00 - 1.00)\hat i + (-1.00 - 1.00)\hat j

d = 3 \hat i - 2\hat j

now the work done is given as

W = F.d

W = (2.00\hat i + 3.00\hat j).(3\hat i - 2\hat j)

W = 0

so there is no work done

Which of the following is a correct step in the process of adding 8.0 x 10^ -2 and 6.0 x 10^ -3
dybincka [34]

Explanation:

In order to compute correctly the sum of the two terms, we have to rewrite one of them such that they have the same exponent.

The two terms are:

8.0 \cdot 10^{-2}

6.0 \cdot 10^{-3}

For instance, we can re-write the second term such as it also has a power 10^{-2}. In order to do that, we have to move the decimal point one place to the left, therefore:

6.0 \cdot 10^{-3} = 0.6\cdot 10^{-2}

At this point, the two numbers have the same exponent, so we can just add them together by adding the bases and keeping the same exponent, -2:

8.0\cdot 10^{-2} + 0.6 \cdot 10^{-2} = (8.0 + 0.6) \cdot 10^{-2} = 8.6\cdot 10^{-2}

Which situation describes a system with decreasing gravitational potential energy?
umka2103 [35]
An example of a system with decreasing gravitational potential energy is a ball in free fall. 

At its initial height h, the ball has a gravitational potential energy equal to
U=mgh
where m is the ball mass and g is the gravitational acceleration. As the ball falls toward the ground, its height h decreases, and so its gravitational potential energy decreases as well, according to the formula 
U=mgh'
where h' is the new height of the ball.
