Answer:

C. it will not change.

Explanation:

While combing, the rubbing of the comb with the hair, transfer of electron takes place from the hair to the comb and the comb becomes negatively charged. But, this transfer of electron does not make any considerable change in the mass of the hair. This is because the mass of an electron is highly negligible. Now, neglecting the mass of an electron, the transfer of the electrons from the hair to the comb makes charging of the comb, but no loss of mass in the hair. So, the mass of hair will no change.

You paddle a conoe with a force of 325 N. You and the canoe have a combined mass of 250 kg. What is the acceleration of the cano
Brums [2.3K]

f = ma

Rearranging it, we get;

a =  \frac{f}{m}
Where a is the acceleration, f is the force, and m is the mass

a =  \frac{325}{250}
a = 1.3 \frac{m}{ {s}^{2} }

A water wheel rotates with a period of 2.26 s. If the water wheel has a radius of l.94 m,
Dafna11 [192]

Answer:

The correct answer is B)

Explanation:

When a wheel rotates without sliding, the straight-line distance covered by the wheel's center-of-mass is exactly equal to the rotational distance covered by a point on the edge of the wheel.  So given that the distances and times are same, the translational speed of the center of the wheel amounts to or becomes the same as the rotational speed of a point on the edge of the wheel.

The formula for calculating the velocity of a point on the edge of the wheel is given as

V_{r} = 2π r / T

Where

π is Pi which mathematically is approximately 3.14159

T is period of time

Vr is Velocity of the point on the edge of the wheel

The answer is left in Meters/Seconds so we will work with our information as is given in the question.

Vr = (2 x 3.14159 x 1.94m)/2.26

Vr = 12.1893692/2.26

Vr = 5.39352619469

Which is approximately 5.39

Cheers!

What is the acceleration of a Porsche that can go from 15 mi/hr to 75 mi/hr in 4 seconds?
Elodia [21]

Hi there!

Acceleration = change in velocity / change in time = Δv/Δt

Thus:

a = (75 - 15)/4 = 60/4 = 15 mi/hr²

How does a mirror affect the path of light?
yulyashka [42]

Light rays change direction when they hit a mirror. The phenomenon is known as reflection. Light rays travels in a straight light. They strike the surface of the mirror at a particular angle called incident angle. It is the angle between the ray and normal at the point of contact. The rays leaves the surface making the same angle with the normal called reflection angle but in different direction.
