An initially electrically neutral conducting sphere is placed on an insulating stand. A negatively-charged glass rod is brought

near, but does not touch the sphere. Without moving the rod, a wire is then attached to the sphere that connects it to earth ground. The rod and wire are then removed simultaneously. What is the final charge on the sphere?a) negative
b) positive
c) neutral
d) It has a fifty percent chance of having a positive charge and a fifty percent chance of having a negative charge.

Answer: Option (c) is the correct answer

Explanation:

It is known that when a neutral object comes in contact with a charged object then an opposite charge develops on the neutral object. But this development of charge occurs only when both the objects come in contact and if they are not in contact with each other then there occurs no charge on the neutral object.

As in the given situation, negatively-charged glass rod is brought near, but does not touch the sphere. So, there will occur no charge on the sphere.

Thus, we can conclude that final charge on the sphere is neutral.

Two models of the same compound are shown. In what way is Model A better than Model B?
astra-53 [7]

The correct answer is Model A shows the three-dimensional shape of the molecule, but Model B does not.

Explanation:

Model A and B show the structure of a molecule. In the case of model A, the structure is represented through the use of three-dimensional shapes, while in model B the structure is represented using the letters of each element and showing how each element is connected to others.

In this context, one feature that makes model A better is that this represents the molecule using a 3D model, which is better to understand how the molecule looks like and what is its structure. Moreover, both models are alike because they show the number of atoms of each element, although model A does not show the types of elements.

Which example is NOT a part of the electromagnetic spectrum?
Alekssandra [29.7K]

Electricity is NOT a part of electromagnetic spectrum.

An electromagnetic spectrum contains electromagnetic radiations arranged according to frequencies and wavelength.

<h2>Further Explanation </h2><h3>Electromagnetic waves  </h3>
  • Electromagnetic waves are types of waves that do not require a material medium for transmission.
  • These waves are mostly transverse in nature, which means the direction of transmission is perpendicular to the direction of vibration of particles.
  • They include, light waves, radio waves, x-rays, infra-red, etc.
<h3>Electromagnetic spectrum </h3>
  • An electromagnetic wave shows electromagnetic waves arranged according to frequencies and wavelength.  
  • Electromagnetic spectrum contains electromagnetic waves: Gamma rays, x-rays, Ultraviolet, Visible light, infra-red, microwaves, and radio waves.
  • The electromagnetic spectrum is divided into various sections based on wavelength, with gamma rays having the shortest wavelength and radio waves having the longest wavelength.
  • The part of the electromagnetic spectrum that we can see using our naked eyes is called the visible light spectrum.
  • In order of frequency, the radio waves have the lowest frequency while gamma rays have the largest frequency.
<h3>General characteristics of electromagnetic waves  </h3>
  • They travel with the speed of light (3.0 x 10^8 m/s)
  • They possess energy that is given by; E =hf, where h is the plank’s constant and f is the frequency.
  • They are transverse in nature, and therefore, the wavelength is measured between successful crests or troughs.
  • They can travel through vacuum

Keywords: Electromagnetic spectrum, electromagnetic waves.

The higher the pressure on a liquid, the higher its boiling point temperature. true false
Alika [10]
True, p1/t1=p2/t2. Pressure is related to temperature at which it boils so pressure does affect the boiling point.
