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.

katen-ka-za [31]

Answer:

v_r=5.89\ m.s^{-1}

Explanation:

Given:

  • mass of rocket, m_r=50\ g
  • time of observation, t=2\ s
  • mass lost by the rocket by expulsion of air, m_a=10\%\ of m_r=5\ g
  • velocity of air, v_a=53\ m.s^{-1}

<u>Now the momentum of air will be equal to the momentum of rocket in the opposite direction: </u>(Using the theory of elastic collision)

m_a.v_a=(m_r-m_a)\times v_r

5\times 53=(50-5)\times v_r

v_r=5.89\ m.s^{-1}

A 0.311 kg tennis racket moving 30.3 m/s east makes an elastic collision with a 0.0570 kg ball moving 19.2 m/s west. Find the ve
Troyanec [42]

The velocity of tennis racket after collision is 14.96m/s

<u>Explanation:</u>

Given-

Mass, m = 0.311kg

u1 = 30.3m/s

m2 = 0.057kg

u2 = 19.2m/s

Since m2 is moving in opposite direction, u2 = -19.2m/s

Velocity of m1 after collision  = ?

Let the velocity of m1 after collision be v

After collision the momentum is conserved.

Therefore,

m1u1 - m2u2 = m1v1 + m2v2

v1 = (\frac{m1-m2}{m1+m2})u1 + (\frac{2m2}{m1+m2})u2

v1 = (\frac{0.311-0.057}{0.311+0.057})30.3 + (\frac{2 X 0.057}{0.311 + 0.057}) X-19.2\\\\v1 = (\frac{0.254}{0.368} )30.3 + (\frac{0.114}{0.368}) X -19.2\\ \\v1 = 20.91 - 5.95\\\\v1 = 14.96

Therefore, the velocity of tennis racket after collision is 14.96m/s

Calculate the kinetic energy in joules of a 1,500 kg car that is moving at a speed of 42 km/h
Rzqust [24]
Data:
KE (Kinetic Energy) = ? (Joule)
m (mass) = 1500 Kg 
v (speed) = 42 Km/h
converting to m/s (42 / 3.6), we have: v (speed) = 11.6 m/s

Formula:
K_{E} =   \frac{1}{2} m*v^2

Solving:
K_{E} = \frac{1}{2} m*v^2
K_{E} =  \frac{1}{2} *1500*(11.6)^2
K_{E} = \frac{1}{2} *1500*134.56
K_{E} =  \frac{201840}{2}
\boxed{\boxed{K_{E} = 100920\:Joule}}\end{array}}\qquad\quad\checkmark
