Thermal energy quantifies the amount of heat present in the body and is calculated through the equation,
H = mcpdT
where H is the heat, m is the mass, cp is the specific heat, and dT is the temperature difference. If all things are constant, and the thermal energy is halved then, dT should also be reduced to half.
<span>The component most affected by the collisions is vertical. The ball's vertical will either decrease or increase due to the collision. If the velocity is high during the collsion the ball's vertical will likely be higher and if the ball's velocity is low the vertical will be as well.</span>
ANSWER and EXPLANATION
We want to identify if there will be an electric field and a magnetic field around the two sticks electrified by charges of opposite signs.
An electric field is a physical field that surrounds electrically charged particles and exerts a force on other charged particles in the surrounding.
This implies that the presence of electric charges on both sticks generates electric fields on them. Since the two charges are opposite, the electric force acting on them will be attractive.
Hence, there is an electric field.
A stationary charged object produces an electric field, as explained above, but will only produce a magnetic field if there is a motion of the object.
Hence, except the two sticks are caused to move, there will be no magnetic field around them.
