What happen (to the gold leaf) if a negative object is brought near a positively charged electroscope without touching it?

Physics
1 answer:
diamong [38]2 years ago
8 0

Answer:

the sheets approach while the object is near

Explanation:

An electroscope is an apparatus that has two metal sheets attached, when these sheets have a charge and distribute evenly between them and the sheets repel.

When I approach an object charged with a counter (negative) charge, part of the charge of the electroscope moves near the charged external object, to neutralize the electric field, so as the charge on one of the plates decreases the electroscope has approached , as the objects are not touched the system remains in this configuration while the object is close. When the object is released, the electric field it creates disappears, so the positive charges repel inside the electroscope and the sheets repel to the initial position.

In short, the sheets approach while the object is near

melamori03 [73]
what is the final speed of the incoming ball if it is much more massive than the stationary ball? express your answer using two significant figures. v1 = 200 m / s submitprevious answers correct
 Perfectly elastic collisions means that both mechanical energy and
momentum are conserved.
 Therefore, for this case, we have the equation to find the final velocity of the incoming ball is given by
 v1f = ((m1-m2) / (m1 + m2)) v1i
 where,
 v1i: initial speed of ball 1.
 v1f: final speed of ball 1.
 m1: mass of the ball 1
 m2: mass of the ball 2
 Since the mass of the ball 1 is much larger than the mass of the ball 2 m1 >> m2, then rewriting the equation:
 v1f = ((m1) / (m1) v1i
 v1f = v1i
 v1f = 200 m / s
 answer
 200 m / s
 part b part complete what is the final direction of the incoming ball with respect to the initial direction if it is much more massive than the stationary ball? forward submitprevious answers correct

 Using the equation of part a, we can include in it the directions:
 v1fx = ((m1-m2) / (m1 + m2)) v1ix
 v1i: initial velocity of ball 1 in the direction of the x-axis
 v1f: final speed of ball 1 in the direction of the x-axis
 like m1 >> m2 then
 v1fx = v1ix
 v1fx = 200 m / s (positive x direction)
 So it is concluded that the ball 1 continues forward.
 answer:
 forward


 part c part complete what is the final speed of the stationary ball if the incoming ball is much more massive than the stationary ball ?.
 The shock is perfectly elastic. For this case, we have that the equation to find the final velocity of the stationary ball is given by
 v2f = ((2m1) / (m1 + m2)) v1i
 where,
 v1i: initial speed of ball 1.
 v2f: final speed of ball 2.
 m1: mass of the ball 1
 m2: mass of the ball 2
 Then, as we know that m1 >> m2 then
 v2f = ((2m1) / (m1) v1i
 v2f = 2 * v1i
 v2f = 2 * (200 m / s)
 v2f = 400 m / s
 answer
 400m / s

Marina CMI [18]

Answer:

The electric field of an infinite line charge with a uniform linear charge density can be obtained by a using Gauss' law. Considering a Gaussian surface in the form of a cylinder at radius r, the electric field has the same magnitude at every point of the cylinder and is directed outward.

A stick of length 1.3 m is held vertically with one end on the floor and is then allowed to fall. Find the speed of the other en
soldi70 [24.7K]

Answer:

Vf = 5.05 m/s

Explanation:

To know this, you need to use the expressions for free fall.

In this case, we only know the length of the stick which is 1.3 m.

The stick is held vertically and then is allowed to fall freely. Now, we want to know the final speed of the stick when it reach the floor.

In this case, we can assume that when the stick is allowed to fall, the innitial speed is 0. Then, the other thing we can assume is the height where the stick is put to fall. In this case, the height is the same as the length, because the stick is already on the floor but is standing vertically.

So, we have here the height, and if the stick is falling, is because of gravity, which is 9.8 m/s²

To calculate the speed, you can use this expression:

Vf = √2*g*h

Replacing the data we have:

Vf = √2 * 9.8 * 1.3

Vf = 5.05 m/s
