Garrick rubs an inflated balloon against his hair. He then touches the balloon against a non-conducting wall.

Physics
1 answer:
Sauron [17]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Figure A

Explanation:

At first, the inflated balloon is rubbed against the hair.

In this situation, the balloon is charged by friction: because of the friction between the surface of the balllon and the hair, electrons are transferred from the hair to the surface of the balloon.

As a result, when the balloon is detached from the hair, it will have an excess of negative charge (due to the acquired electrons).

Then, the balloon is placed in contact with the non-conducting wall.

The non-conducting wall is initially neutral (equal number of positive and negative charges).

Because the wall is made of a non-conducting material (=isolant), the charges cannot move easily through it. Therefore, even though the charges on the wall feel a force due to the presence of the electrons in the balloon, they will not redistribute along the wall.

Therefore, the charges on the wall will remain equally distributed, as shown in figure A.

Which is a more objective measurement, sound intensity or loudness, and why? 1. sound intensity is exactly same as loudness. 2.
fgiga [73]
The correct answer is:
<span>2. sound intensity is a more objective and physical attribute of a sound wave because loudness can vary from person to person

indeed, sound intensity is a measurable quantity, and so it is objective, while loudness is the subjective perception of the sound level, so it varies from person to person.</span>

A hockey player skates with an average speed of 8.25 m/s. The distance the player will travel in 5.60 s is __________ .
OverLord2011 [107]
<h2>Greetings!</h2>

To find this value, you need to remember the speed formula:

3 = 6 / 2

Speed = distance ÷ time

Rearrange to make distance the subject:

Distance = speed * time

Simply plug these values into this:

5.6 * 8.25 = 46.2

<h3>So the player will travel 46.2 metres!</h3>
<h2>Hope this helps!</h2>

During a compression at a constant pressure of 290 Pa, the volume of an ideal gas decreases from 0.62 m3 to 0.21 m3. The initial
Aloiza [94]

Answer:

a) -41.1 Joule

b) 108.38 Kelvin

Explanation:

Pressure = P = 290 Pa

Initial volume of gas = V₁ = 0.62 m³

Final volume of gas = V₂ = 0.21 m³

Initial temperature of gas = T₁ = 320 K

Heat loss = Q = -160 J

Work done = PΔV

⇒Work done = 290×(0.21-0.62)

⇒Work done = -118.9 J

a) Change in internal energy = Heat - Work

ΔU = -160 -(-118.9)

⇒ΔU = -41.1 J

∴ Change in internal energy is -41.1 J

b) V₁/V₂ = T₁/T₂

⇒T₂ = T₁V₂/V₁

⇒T₂ = 320×0.21/0.62

⇒T₂ = 108.38 K

∴ Final temperature of the gas is 108.38 Kelvin
