poizon [28]

Answer:

Here ball and rod will repel each other as they are of similar charges

Explanation:

As we know that the two charges attract or repel each other by electrostatic force

This force is given as

F = \frac{kq_1q_2}{r^2}

so we know if two charges are similar in nature then they will repel each other and if the two charges are opposite in nature then they will attract each other

So here when rod touch the ball then it transfer its charge to the ball and due to similar charges in ball and rod they both repel each other

A student connects an object with mass m to a rope with a length r and then rotates the rope around her head parallel to the gro
Alexandra [31]

The object takes 0.5 seconds to complete one rotation, so its rotational speed is 1/0.5 rot/s = 2 rot/s.

Convert this to linear speed; for each rotation, the object travels a distance equal to the circumference of its path, or 2<em>π</em> (1.2 m) = 2.4<em>π</em> m ≈ 7.5 m, so that

2 rot/s = (2 rot/s) • (2.4<em>π</em> m/rot) = 4.8<em>π</em> m/s ≈ 15 m/s

thus giving it a centripetal acceleration of

<em>a</em> = (4.8<em>π</em> m/s)² / (1.2 m) ≈ 190 m/s².

Then the tension in the rope is

<em>T</em> = (50 kg) <em>a</em> ≈ 9500 N.

What is 8200 N/m2 expressed in kilopascals?
natima [27]
The S.I. unit for the measure of the pressure is the Pascal (Pa). 1 Pascal corresponds to
1 Pa = 1 N/m^2

We can convert the number given by the problem into Pascal:
8200 N/m^2 = 8200 Pa

And since 1 Pa = 10^{-3}kPa, we have
8200 Pa = 8200 \cdot 10^{-3}kPa =8.2 kPa

A current of 2.0A flows through a light bulb. What is the amount of charge flowing through the light bulb in 40 seconds?
lidiya [134]

Answer:

Quantity of charge = 80 Coulombs

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Current = 2 A

Time = 40 seconds

To find the amount of charge flowing through the light bulb;

Mathematically, the quantity of charge passing through a conductor is given by the formula;

Quantity of charge = current * time

Substituting into the formula, we have;

Quantity of charge = 2 * 40

Quantity of charge = 80 Coulombs
