Answer:We are usually not aware of the electric force acting between two everyday objects because most everyday objects have as many plus charges as minus charges. Option A

Explanation:An electric force is exerted between any two charged objects( either positive or negative). Objects with the same charge will repel each other, and objects with opposite charge will attract each other. The strength of the electric force between any two charged objects depends on the amount of charge that each object contains and on the distance between the two charges. Electric charges are generated all around us due to different surfaces bearing different types of charges. We are usually not aware of it because the quantity of positive charges equals the number of negative charges.

. Determine if approximate cylindrical symmetry holds for the following situations. State why or why not. (a) A 300-cm long copp

MA_775_DIABLO [31]

Answer:

a) Yes

b) No

Explanation:

In the first case, part a, yes we can say for certainty that cylinderical symmetry holds. Why so? You may ask. This is because from the question, we are told that the length of the rod is 300 cm. And this said length is longer than the distance to the point from the center of the rod, which is 5 cm.

In the second half of the question, I beg to disagree that cylindrical symmetry holds. Again, you may ask why, this is because the length of the rod in this case, is having the same order of magnitude as the distance to the center of the rod. Thus, it is not symmetrical.

Technician A says that the freezing point of a substance is the temperature at which the substance changes state from a solid to

pashok25 [27]

Answer:

Technician B is correct

Explanation:

Freezing is a method of conversion of substance in its liquid state to solid state. It is the process by which a liquid substance changes to a solid at a particular temperature.

Increasing the pressure and decreasing the temperature of a liquid increases its freezing point. For example, in other to freeze water i.e to change water to ice, it has to be kept in a fridge at a temperature lower than the temperature of the water. The essence of covering the fridge after placing the water in the fridge is to increase the pressure of the liquid hence increasing its freezing rate.

Based on the above explanation, it can be concluded that technician B is correct.

A small drop of water is suspended motionless in air by a uniform electric field that is directed upward and has a magnitude of

Gennadij [26K]

To solve this problem we will apply the concepts related to the electric field such as the smelting of the Force and the load (In this case the force is equivalent to the weight). Later we will apply the ratio of the total charge as a function of the multiplication of the number of electrons and their individual charge.

$E = \frac{mg}{q}$

Here,

m = mass

g = Acceleration due to gravity

Rearranging to find the charge,

$q = \frac{mg}{E}$

Replacing,

$q = \frac{(3.37*10^{-9})(9.8)}{11000}$

$q = 3.002*10^{-12}C$

Since the field is acting upwards the charge on the drop should be negative to balance it in air. The equation to find the number of electrons then is

$q = ne$
