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

Physics

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

List one way to take advantage of creating even more kinetic energy on this particular technologically advanced field
lisabon 2012 [21]

Kinetic energy can be used to develop electric energy which can be used as electricity.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The kinetic energy can be harnessed; much like some hydro power technologies harness water movement. A way to convert this kinetic energy into electric energy is through piezoelectric. By applying a mechanical stress to a piezoelectric crystal or material an electric current will be created and can be harvested.

Kinetic energy is also generated by the human body when it is in motion. Studies have also been done using kinetic energy and then converting it to other types of energy, which is then used to power everything from flashlights to radios and more.

A man claims that he can hold onto a 16.0-kg child in a head-on collision as long as he has his seat belt on. Consider this man
Anna007 [38]

Answer:

F = -8440.12 N

the magnitude of the average force needed to hold onto the child is 8440.12 N

Explanation:

Given;

Mass of child m = 16 kg

Speed of each car v = 59.0 mi/h = 26.37536 m/s

Time t = 0.05s

Applying the impulse momentum equation;

Impulse = change in momentum

Ft = ∆(mv)

F = ∆(mv)/t

F = m(∆v)/t

Where;

F = force

t = time

m = mass

v = velocity

Since the final speed of the car is zero(at rest) then;

∆v = 0 - v = -26.37536 m/s

Substituting the given values;

F = 16×-26.37536/0.05

F = -8440.1152 N

F = -8440.12 N

the magnitude of the average force needed to hold onto the child is 8440.12 N

Given: Saturated air changes temperature by 0.5°C/100 m. The air is completely saturated at the dew point. The dew point has bee
erma4kov [3.2K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

saturated air temperature by 0.5^{\circ}C/100 m

Dew point temperature is given by t=2^{\circ}C

Dew point is defined as the temperature after which air no longer to uphold the water vapor fuse with it and some water vapor may condense to a liquid.

air continues to rise for 1400 m

i.e. change in temperature would be \Delta t =\frac{0.5}{100}\times 1400=7^{\circ}C

Final temperature t_f

t_f+\Delta t=t

t_f=2-7=-5^{\circ}C

The zero tolerance law applies to drivers _________.
s2008m [1.1K]

The zero tolerance law applies to drivers <u>under the age of 21.</u>

<h3>Zero Tolerance Law:</h3>

Drivers under the age of 21 who operate a motor vehicle with a BAC of between 0.02% and 0.07% are subject to what is known as the "Zero Tolerance Law." The Zero Tolerance Law aims to prevent underage drivers from driving after consuming alcohol.

The zero-tolerance rule states that it is against the law for anyone under the age of 21 to operate a motor vehicle while having any detectable level of alcohol in their system. Zero Tolerance Law states that a minor has committed the criminal offense of DUI if there is ANY detectable level of alcohol in his or her system while operating a vehicle in public. The minor's driver's license is immediately suspended, and the officer has the authority to confiscate the license on the spot.

The brief wave of positive electrical charge that sweeps down the axon is _____.
kobusy [5.1K]
I believe Action potential is the brief wave of positive charge that sweeps down the axon. Axon is part of the neuron that conducts impulses from the dendrites towards the cell body along the neuron. The action potential is brief since the sodium channels can only stay open for a very brief amount of time. As it travels along the neuron there is a change in polarity across the membrane of the axon .
