What would be the speed of an object just before hitting the ground if dropped 91.5 meters
Aleks04 [339]

Answer:

about 42.35 m/s

Explanation:

Use the equation for accelerated motion (g), and with zero initial velocity that doesn't include time:

v_f^2=v_i^2+2\,a\,\Delta x

which for our case would reduce to:

v_f^2=v_i^2+2\,a\,\Delta x\\v_f^2=0+2\,9.8\,(91.5)\\v_f^2= 1793.4\\v_f=\sqrt{1793.4} \\v_f \approx 42.35

then the velocity just before hitting would be about 42.35 m/s

Suppose a thin conducting wire connects two conducting spheres. A negatively charged rod is brought near one of the spheres, the
dangina [55]

Answer:

a. The spheres will attract each other.

Explanation:

When two conducting spheres are connected by a conducting wire and a negatively charged rod is brought near it then this will induce opposite (positive) charge at the nearest point on the sphere and by the conservation of charges there will also be equal amount of negative charge on the farthest end of this conducting system this is called induced polarization.

  • When the conducting wire which joins them is cut while the charged rod is still in proximity to of one of the metallic sphere then there will be physical separation of the two equal and unlike charges on the spheres which will not get any path to flow back and neutralize.
  • Hence the two spheres will experience some amount of electrostatic force between them.
