Every time your cats paw hits her toy string, it swings away from her. How does this demonstrate Newton’s third law of motion?

Wittaler [7]3 years ago

Answer:

This demonstrates Newton's Third Law because for every action there is an equal and opposite force.

Explanation:

The cat's paw hitting her toy string would be an action therefore when is swings to and from her it it creating and equal and opposite force. In other words, the cat hits it and when the string comes back to her it's coming back the same force just opposite of the direction she hit.

You hold a ruler that has a charge on its tip 6 cm above a small piece of tissue paper to see if it can be picked up. The ruler
Fed [463]

Answer:

9.81 × 10⁻¹⁰ C

Explanation:

Given:

Distance between the tissue and the tip of the scale, r = 6 cm = 0.06 m

Charge on the ruler, Q = - 12 μC = - 12 × 10⁻⁶ C

Mass of the tissue = 3 g = 0.003 Kg

Now,

The force required to pick the tissue, F = mg

where, g is the acceleration due to gravity

also,

The force between (F) the charges is given as:

F=\frac{kQq}{r^2}

where,

q is the charge on the tissue

k is the Coulomb's constant = 9 × 10⁹ Nm²/C²

thus,

mg=\frac{kQq}{r^2}

on substituting the respective values, we get

0.003\times9.81=\frac{9\times10^9\times(-12\times10^{-6})\times q}{0.06^2}

or

q = 9.81 × 10⁻¹⁰ C

Minimum charge required to pick the tissue paper is 9.81 × 10⁻¹⁰ C

Sometimes balance point may not be obtained on the potentiometer wire why​
scoundrel [369]
Solution
Let a cell of emf E be connected across the entire length L of a potentiometer wire . Now , if the balance point is obtained at a length l during measurement of an unknown voltage

.
The balance point is not on the potentiometer wire - this statement means that

. In that case ,
l > L
V > E
