2. (1 point) Two metal spheres with different radii are each hanging from insulating nylon threads. One of the spheres has a net

negative charge, while the other has no net charge. If the spheres are close together but do not touch, they will: A. attract each other B. repel each other C. repel if the sphere with the larger radius is the one that is negatively charged D. repel if the sphere with the smaller radius is the one that is negatively charged E. exert no force on each other

Answer:

A. attract each other

Explanation:

When the neutral sphere is brought close to the negatively charged, as charges can move freely in a conductor, some electrons will be repelled, leaving a net positive charge (equal in magnitude ot the charge in the other sphere) on the surface of the neutral sphere, which will cause that both spheres attract each other.

What is the Kinetic Energy of a tennis ball after 40.0cm of freefall?
OlgaM077 [116]
The kinetic energy is the same as the potential energy of raising it 40cm (0.4m). That's mgh where m is mass of ball. Its then 3.924*m, whatever m is equal to in kg.

Lemur [1.5K]

Answer:

0.3659

Explanation:

The power (p) is given as:

P = AeσT⁴

where,

A =Area

e = transmittivity

σ = Stefan-boltzmann constant

T = Temperature

since both the bulbs radiate same power

P₁ = P₂

Where, 1 denotes the bulb 1

2 denotes the bulb 2

thus,

A₁e₁σT₁⁴ = A₂e₂σT₂⁴

Now e₁=e₂

⇒A₁T₁⁴ = A₂T₂⁴

or

\frac{A_1}{A_2} =\frac{T_{2}^{4}}{T_{1}^{4}}

substituting the values in the above question we get

\frac{A_1}{A_2} =\frac{2100_{2}^{4}}{2700_{1}^{4}}

or

\frac{A_1}{A_2} }=0.3659

How do electrons flow through a wire
aniked [119]

Every atom has electrons. When you add new electrons to the wire, they will be passed on to an atom. The electrons keep passing from atom to atom until it reaches the light source, basically. It's kinda like that one song "100 jugs of milk" or whatever it's called. Each atom passes the atom next to it an electron.

Elza [17]

Answer:

1923 N

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Mass (m) = 65 Kg

Radius (r) = 2.5 m

Velocity (v) = 8.6 m/s

Centripetal force (F) =?

The centripetal force, F, can be obtained by using the following formula:

F = mv²/r

F = 65 × 8.6² / 2.5

F = 65 × 73.96 / 2.5

F = 4807.4 / 2.5

F = 1922.96 ≈ 1923 N

Thus, the magnitude of the centripetal's force acting on the student is approximately 1923 N

A 5-kg ball collides inelastically head-on with a 10-kg ball, which is initially stationary. Which of the following statements i
NARA [144]

Answer:

The magnitude of the change of velocity the 5-kg ball experiences is less than that of the 10-kg ball.

Explanation:

In inelastic collision, the total momentum is always conserved after collision but the kinetic energy is reduced.

Momentum is Mass X velocity.

5 kg ball is in motion, while 10 kg ball is stationary; that is zero velocity.

The momentum of 10 kg ball before collision is zero while the momentum of 5 kg ball before collision is more than zero. Therefore, the magnitude of change in momentum will not be equal.

Next possible options are in kinetic Energy

Initial Kinetic energy = \frac{1}{2}mu^2

Final kinetic energy =\frac{1}{2}mv^2

Change in kinetic energy = Final Kinetic Energy - Initial Kinetic Energy

Change in kinetic energy of 5kg ball = \frac{1}{2}mv^2 -\frac{1}{2}mu^2 = \frac{1}{2}m(v-u)^2

Since the 5-kg ball has initial velocity (u), the magnitude of the change in velocity will be reduced.

Change in kinetic energy of 10kg ball:

the ball is initially at rest, therefore the initial velocity (u) will be zero (0)

Δ K.E = \frac{1}{2}mv^2 -\frac{1}{2}mu^2 = \frac{1}{2}m(v-u)^2 = \frac{1}{2}m(v-0)^2 = \frac{1}{2}mv^2

From the solution above, the magnitude of the change in velocity experienced by 10 kg ball is higher than 5 kg ball.

Hence, The magnitude of the change of velocity the 5-kg ball experiences is less than that of the 10-kg ball
