Answer:

bring each tube close to the plastic ball and note any movement of the ball

Explanation:

Electric fields can exert forces on objects, even if the objects involved are not touching. One way to demonstrate that electric fields exist around charged objects is to observe the effects of their forces at a distance.

Since the plastic ball of the electroscope is made of insulating plastic and is uncharged, it will be attracted to any charged object brought near it. So Jen can observe the effects of the tube's electric fields by bringing each tube close to the plastic ball and noting any movement of the ball. If the ball moves toward a tube, then the process that Jen used on the tube generated an electric field.

A 60 kg pupil runs for 600m in 1 minute uniformly calculate kinetic energy

AURORKA [14]

velocity = traveled distance ÷ time of the traveled distance is seconds

velocity = 600 ÷ 60

velocity = 10 m/s

_________________________________

Kinetic Energy = 1/2 × mass × ( velocity )^2

KE = 1/2 × 60 × ( 10 )^2

KE = 30 × 100

KE = 3000 j

The superheroine Xanaxa, who has a mass of 68.1 kg , is pursuing the 75.3 kg archvillain Lexlax. She leaps from the ground to th

Alexandra [31]

The concept required to solve this problem is associated with potential energy. Recall that potential energy is defined as the product between mass, gravity, and change in height. Mathematically it can be described as

$U = mg\Delta h$

Here,

$\Delta h$ = Change in height

m = mass of super heroine

g = Acceleration due to gravity

The change in height will be,

$\Delta h = h_f - h_i$

The final position of the heroin is below the ground level,

$h_f = -16.1m$

The initial height will be the zero point of our system of reference,

$\Delta h = -16.1m-0m$

$\Delta h = -16.1m$

Replacing all this values we have,

$U = mg\Delta h$

$U = (68.1kg)(9.8m/s^2)(-16.1m)$

$U = -10744.81J$

Since the final position of the heroine is located below the ground, there will net loss of gravitational potential energy of 10744.81J

What does the galaxy made of ?

ICE Princess25 [194]

Galaxies are sprawling systems of dust, gas, dark matter, and anywhere from a million to a trillion stars that are held together by gravity. Nearly all large galaxies are thought to also contain supermassive black holes at their centers.
