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

The distance between adjacent nodes in a standing wave pattern in a length of string is 25.0 cm:A. What is the wavelength of wav

mina [271]

A) 50 cm

B) 10000 cm/s

Explanation

Step 1

If you know the distance between nodes and antinodes then use this equation:

$\begin{gathered} \frac{\lambda}{2}=D \\ \text{where}\lambda\text{ is the wavelength} \\ D\text{ is the distance betw}een\text{ nodes} \end{gathered}$

then, let

$D=\text{ 25 cm }$

now, replace to find the wavelength

$\begin{gathered} \frac{\lambda}{2}=25 \\ \text{Multiply both sides by 2} \\ \frac{\lambda}{2}\cdot2=25\cdot2 \\ \lambda=50\text{ Cm} \end{gathered}$

so, the wavelength is

A) 50 cm

Step 2

The speed of a wave can be found using the equation

$v=\lambda f$

or velocity = wavelength x frequency,

then,let

$\begin{gathered} \lambda=50\text{ cm} \\ f=200\text{ Hz} \end{gathered}$

replace and evaluate

$\begin{gathered} v=\lambda f \\ v=50\text{ cm }\cdot200\text{ HZ} \\ v=10000\text{ }\frac{\text{cm}}{s} \end{gathered}$

B) 10000 cm/s

How does mass and material type effect thermal energy transfer

Vedmedyk [2.9K]

The mass contributes with the time of thermal energy transfer with respect to the material type but most importantly the material type will determine rate at which the material absorbs the transfer of heat or thermal energy by either three types, conduction, convection and radiation.

You observe two cars traveling in the same direction on a long, straight section of Highway 5. The red car is moving at a consta

Arte-miy333 [17]

Answer:

1) 3.66 s

2) 124.44 m

3) 3.12 s

Explanation:

Let's start by first listing down the information in the question.

Red Car : 34 m/s

Blue Car: 28 m/s

Distance between them : 22 m

The difference in speed between the cars is: 34 - 28 = 6 m/s

This means that the red car is catching up to the blue car at a speed of 6 m/s.

1) We can solve this by just dividing the distance by the difference in speed. This becomes: $\frac{Distance}{Speed}= \frac{22}{6} = 3.66$

Thus it takes 3.66 seconds for the red car to catch up to the blue car.

2) We know from (1) that it took 3.66 seconds for the red car to catch up. Since the speed it was travelling at is constant, we only need to multiply it by the time from (1) to get the distance.

This becomes: $Speed * Time = 34 * 3.66 = 124.44$

Thus the red car travels 124.44 m before catching up to the blue car.

3) If the red car starts to accelerate the moment we see it, the time taken to get to the blue car will be less than before. We can find this in a simple way.

We can use the motion equation : $s = u*t + \frac{1}{2}(a * t^2)$

Here s = 22 m

We can take u as the difference in speed. u = 6 m/s

Acceleration a = (2/3) m/s^2

Substituting the these into the equation we get:

$22 = 6t + \frac{1}{2}(\frac{2}{3}t^2)$

Solving this for the variable 't' using the quadratic formula we get the following two answers:

t1 = 3.12 s

t2 = - 21.12 s

Since t2 is not possible, the answer is t1. This means it takes 3.12 seconds for the red car to catch up to the blue.
