1) The charge left on the fur is equal and opposite to the charge transferred to the rod:
Q=+4.8 \cdot 10^{9} C
In fact, when the rod is rubbed with the fur, a net charge of Q=-4.8 \cdot 10^{-9} C has been transferred to the rod, leaving it negatively charged. If we assume the fur was initially neutral, this means that we have now an excess of positive charges on the fur, and the amount of this charge must be equal (in magnitude, but with opposite sign) to the charge transferred to the rod.

2) The mass transferred to the rod is equal to the total mass of the electrons transferred to the rod.
The charge transferred to the rod is
Q=-4.8 \cdot 10^{-9} C
The charge of 1 electron is
e=-1.6 \cdot 10^{-19} C
So the number of electrons transferred is
N= \frac{Q}{e}= \frac{-4.8 \cdot 10^{-9} C}{-1.6 \cdot 10^{-19} C}=3.0 \cdot 10^{10}

The mass of 1 electron is m=9.1 \cdot 10^{-31} kg, therefore the total mass transferred to the rod is
M=Nm=(3 \cdot 10^{10})(9.1 \cdot 10^{-31} kg)=2.73 \cdot 10^{-20} kg

5. Find the mass of a car that is traveling at a velocity of 35 m/s West.
sattari [20]

Answer:

m = 9795.9 kg

Explanation:

v = 35 m/s

KE = 6,000,000 J

Plug those values into the following equation:

KE = \frac{1}{2} mv^{2}

6,000,000 J = (1/2)(35^2)m

---> m = 9795.9 kg

A penny rolls along the table for a distance of 1.3 meters. Jackie pushes it 40 centimeters further in the same direction.
brilliants [131]
40 meters times 1 meter over 100 centimeters equals 0.4 meters. 1.3 meters + 40 centimeters =. 1.3 m + 0.4 m = 1.7 m. The answer is 1.7 meters

A. the light bulb goes out once the circuit is open since it causes the flow of electricity to cut off. the light bulb dosent get the energy it needs to light up

Explanation:

B. a simple example of this in our every day life is a light switch. when you switch the light on then the circuit is closed and the energy transfers to the light bulb, when u switch the light off then you cut off the lights source of energy which causes the light to turn off.
