In Thomson experiment, why was the glowing beam repelled by a negatively charged plate, because the glowing beam was negatively charged. The glowing beam particles were attracted to the positive plate.

J.JThomson proved that the cathode rays produced a stream of negatively charged particles called electrons.

A 5 meter long ladder leans against a wall. The bottom of the ladder slides away from the wall at the constant rate of 1 3 m/s.

Oksana_A [137]

Answer:9.75 m/s

Explanation:

Given

Length of ladder $(L)=5 m$

Foot the ladder is moving away with speed of $\frac{\mathrm{d} x}{\mathrm{d} t}=13 m/s$

From diagram

$x^2+y^2=L^2$ ------1

at $x=3$

$y^2=25-9=16$

$y=4 m$

Now differentiating equation 1 w.r.t time

$2x\frac{\mathrm{d} x}{\mathrm{d} t}+2y\frac{\mathrm{d} y}{\mathrm{d} t}=0$

$x\frac{\mathrm{d} x}{\mathrm{d} t}=-y\frac{\mathrm{d} y}{\mathrm{d} t}$

$3\times 13=-4\times \frac{\mathrm{d} y}{\mathrm{d} t}$

$\frac{\mathrm{d} y}{\mathrm{d} t}=-\frac{3\times 13}{4}=-9.75 m/s$

negative indicates distance is decreasing with time

HELP PLS. What are the characteristics of the three states of matter?

vredina [299]

Matter can exist in one of three main states: solid, liquid, or gas. Solid matter is composed of tightly packed particles. A solid will retain its shape; the particles are not free to move around. Liquid matter is made of more loosely packed particles. Hopefully this helps:)

A line of dominos is knocked down. Which explanation is true?

Llana [10]

B: an increase in acceleration caused an increase in force.

This is based on the concept of force on an object.

Now, formula for force is commonly known as;

Force = mass × acceleration

Now, mass and acceleration are the input values that make the output which is the Force to either increase or decrease.

Now, for the line of dominoes to fall, it means that the force was so overwhelming that the dominoes couldn't resist it.

Now, this output which is the force became so much as a result of the increase in acceleration of the motion that triggered its movement.

Moreover, the force is directly proportional to the acceleration!

Thus, we can say that an increase in acceleration caused an increase in force.
