Answer : (A) A charged object is brought near a neutral object without touching it.

Explanation:

Bodies can be charged by the method of conduction. By conduction the body acquires the same charge as on the charging body.

Charging the body can be understood by the following example of charging a paper cylinder by conduction. Make a paper cylinder by rolling a strip of paper on a pencil and then gently pulling out the pencil. Suspend the paper cylinder by a string tied to its center, now touch the paper cylinder with a glass rod rubbed with silk so it has a positive charge. Remove the class rod and the again bring it near to the paper cylinder.

The paper cylinder is repelled by the positively charged rod. And when you bring a negatively rubbed rod, next to the cylinder it will be attracted towards the rod. This means that the paper cylinder has acquired a positive charge as on the glass rod due to conduction.

A tire swing hanging from a branch reaches nearly to the ground. How could you estimate the height of the branch using only a st

AlexFokin [52]

Answer:

Explanation:

With the help of expression of time period of pendulum we can calculate the height of the branch . The swinging tire can be considered equivalent to swinging bob of a pendulum . Here length of pendulum will be equal to height of branch .

Let it be h . Let the time period of swing of tire be T then from the formula of time period of pendulum

$T = 2\pi\sqrt{\frac{l}{g} }$ where l is length of pendulum .

here l = h so

$T = 2\pi\sqrt{\frac{h}{g} }$

$h = \frac{T^2g}{4\pi^2}$

If we calculate the time period of swing of tire , we can calculate the height of branch .

The time period of swing of tire can be estimated with the help of a stop watch . Time period is time that the tire will take in going from one extreme point to the other end and then coming back . We can easily estimate it with the help of stop watch .

The block A and attached rod have a combined mass of 50 kg and are confined to move along the guide under the action of the 796-

Luba_88 [7]

Answer:

The bending moment is 459.16 N.m

Explanation:

From the given information;

Let's assume that the angle is 66°

Then, the free body diagram is draw and attached in the file below.

Now, the calculation of the acceleration from the first part of the free body diagram is:

$\sum F_x = ma_x \\ \\ 796 - 50(9.81) sin 66=50a \\ \\ 796 - 448.094 = 50 a \\ \\ a = \dfrac{347.906}{50} \\ \\ a = 6.96 \ m/s^2$

Bending moment M:

From the second part of the diagram:

$\sum M_B = mad \\ \\ M - (15 \times 9.81) (1.5) = (25 \times 6.96)(1.5 sin 66) \\ \\ M - 220.725 = 238.435 \\ \\ M = 238.435 + 220.725 \\ \\ \mathbf{M = 459.16 \ N.m}$
