Why does the static electricity in an object not constantly shock us?

Physics

Answer:Static electricity is the result of an imbalance between negative and positive charges in an object. These charges can build up on the surface of an object until they find a way to be released or discharged.

A skier is pulled by a towrope up a frictionless ski slope that makes an angle of 12 degrees with the horizontal. The rope moves
MArishka [77]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given,

  • Work done by the rope 900 m/s.
  • Angle of inclination of the slope = \theta\ =\ 12^o
  • Initial speed of the skier = v = 1.0 m/s
  • Length of the inclined surface = d = 8.0 m

part (a)

The rope is doing the work against the gravity on the skier to uplift up to the inclined surface. Therefore the work done by the rope is equal to the work done on the skier due to the gravity

\therefore W_r\ =\ W_g\ =\ 900\ J

In both cases the height attained by the skier is equal. and the work done by gravity does not depend upon the speed of the skier.

part (b)

  • Initial speed of the skier = v = 1.0 m/s.

Rate of the work done by the rope is power of the rope.

Power\ =\ \dfrac{\Delta W}{\Delta t}\\\Rightarrow P\ =\ \dfrac{\Delta W}{\dfrac{d}{v}}\\\Rightarrow P\ =\ \dfrac{\Delta W\times v}{d}\\\Rightarrow P\ =\ \dfrac{900\times 1.0}{8.0}\\\Rightarrow P\ =\ 112.5\ Watt

Part (c)

  • Initial speed of the skier = v = 2.0 m/s.

Rate of the work done by the rope is power of the rope.

Power\ =\ \dfrac{\Delta W}{\Delta t}\\\Rightarrow P\ =\ \dfrac{\Delta W}{\dfrac{d}{v}}\\\Rightarrow P\ =\ \dfrac{\Delta W\times v}{d}\\\Rightarrow P\ =\ \dfrac{900\times 2.0}{8.0}\\\Rightarrow P\ =\ 225\ Watt

A wave with a wavelength of 125 meters is moving at a speed of 20 m/s. What is it’s frequency
IceJOKER [234]

Answer:

0.16Hz

Explanation:

wavelength (λ) = 125 meters

speed (V) = 20 m/s

frequency (F) = ?

Recall that frequency is the number of cycles the wave complete in one

second. And its value depends on the wavelength and speed of the wave.

So, apply the formula V = F λ

Make F the subject formula

F = V / λ

F = 20 m/s / 125 meters

F = 0.16 Hz

Can someone help me with these questions please. I will mark brainliest
VladimirAG [237]

Answer:

3: I can´t see the text/image, but it depend on the mass and the force applied to the ball, if both are too high, it will be harder to make a home run. (Second law)

4:It would be easier to make a home run because there is no interruption between the ball and the space the same travels. (Third law)

A vessel that contains a gas has two pressure gauges attached to it. One contains liquid mercury, and the other an oil such as d
castortr0y [4]

Answer:

Pressure of the gas = 12669 (Pa) and height of the oil is 1,24 meters

Explanation:

First, we can use the following sketch for an easy understanding, in the attached image we can see the two pressure gauges the one with mercury to the right and the other one with oil to left. We have all the information needed in the mercury pressure gauge, so we can determine the pressure inside the vessel because the fluid is a gas it will have the same pressure distributed inside the vessel (P1).

Since P1 = Pgas, we can use the same formula, but this time we need to determine the height of the column of oil in the pressure gauge.

The result is that the height of the oil column is higher than the height of the one that uses mercury, this is due to the higher density of mercury compared to oil.

Note: the information given in the units of the fluids is not correct because the density is always expressed in units of (mass /volume)
