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.

lora16 [44]

Answer:

D &B

Explanation:

Using Fleming right hand rule that States that if the fore-finger, middle finger and the thumb of left hand are stretched mutually perpendicular to each other, such that fore-finger points in the direction of magnetic field, the middle finger points in the direction of the motion of positive charge, then the thumb points to the direction of the force

A train travels 67 kilometers in 1 hours, and then 81 kilometers in 5 hours. What is its average speed?
Naddika [18.5K]
Answer: 24.7 km/h

Explanation:

1) Average speed definition and formula

The average speed is the total distance run divided by the time elapsed:

S = distance / time

2) Distance 1 = 67 km

3) Distance 2 = 81 km

4) Total distance traveled = 67 km + 81 km = 148 km

5) time 1 = 1 hour

6) time 2 = 5 hours

7) total time = time 1 + time 2 = 1 h + 5 h = 6 h

8) Average speed:

S = 148 km / 6 h = 24.7 km/h
