Physics
1 answer:
andriy [413]3 years ago
5 0

Explanation:

When two materials come in contact with each other , there occurs the movement of electrons from one material to other , hence , there is an excess positive charge on one of the material , and hence lead to static electricity .

Examples -

  • brushing dry hairs via a plastic comb can generate static electricity .
  • Clothes stuck to one another in the dryer
  • Walking on the floor with carpet and touching a door can lead to a shock , due to static electricity .

An object is thrown directly up (positive direction) with a velocity (v o ) of 20.0 m/s and d o = 0. How high does it rise (v =
Lelechka [254]

Answer:

h=20.38 m

Explanation:

Given that

Initial speed of object u = 20 m/s

Acceleration  g= 9.8\ \frac{m}{s^2}

We know that

v^2=u^2-2gh

Here acceleration and velocity is in opposite direction so the object will come rest after reaching at distance h.When body will reach at its highest position then velocity will become zero(v=0).

Now by putting the values

v^2=u^2-2gh

0 =20^2-2\times 9.1\times h

h=20.38 m

The intensity of electromagnetic waves from the sun is 1.4 kW/m2 just above the earth's atmosphere. Eighty percent of this reach
Lina20 [59]

Answer:

4.7 × 10⁵J

Explanation:

E = I * a * t

80% = 0.80

25cm = 0.25m

52cm = 0.52m

0.90h = 3240s

E = (0.80)(1400)(0.25 * 0.52)(3240)

= 4.7 * 10⁵J

An empty truck traveling at 10 km/h has kinetic energy. How much kinetic energy does it have when loaded so that its mass and it
Katena32 [7]

Answer:

8 time increase in K.E.

Explanation:

Consider Mass of truck = m kg and speed = v m/s then

K.E. = 1/2 ×mv²

If mass and speed both are doubled i.e let m₀ = 2m and v₀ = 2v then

(K.E.)₀ =  1/2 ×2m(2v)²

(K.E.)₀ = 8 (1/2 × mv²) = 8 × K.E.

An object completes one and half revolution of a circle of radius R calculate the displacement and distance
Papessa [141]

Answer:

Distance is path length covered by particle. When particle moves along half circle, it covers half the circumference therefore distance covered is (2×pi×r)/2 = pi× r. ... Hence displacement is equal to diameter or 2 times the radius of circle.
