A charged comb often attracts small bits of dry paper that then fly away when they touch the comb. Explain why that occurs.

Physics
1 answer:
MAVERICK [17]3 years ago
7 0

Explanation:

Since the comb has a net charge, it attracts the paper, which has a net charge equal to zero. When the paper touches the comb, an electrical interaction is established between the charge of the comb and the neutral paper, because of this, the paper now has a net charge with the same sign of the comb and they repel.

An ice skater starts with a velocity of 2.25 m/s in a 50.0 direction. after 8.33 m/s in a 120 direction. what is the y-component
Bond [772]

The y-component of the acceleration is 0.33 m/s^2

Explanation:

The y-component of the acceleration is given by:

a_y = \frac{v_y-u_y}{t}

where

v_y is the y-component of the  final velocity

u_y is the y-component of the initial velocity

t is the time elapsed

For the ice skater in this problem, we have:

u_y = u sin \theta_1 = (2.25 m/s)(sin 50.0^{\circ})=1.72 m/s

where

u = 2.25 m/s is the initial velocity

\theta_1 = 50.0^{\circ} is the initial  direction

v_y = v sin \theta_2 = (4.65)(sin 120^{\circ})=4.03 m/s, where

v = 4.65 m/s is the final velocity

\theta_2 = 120.0^{\circ} is the final direction

The time elapsed is

t = 8.33 s

Therefore, we can find the y-component of the acceleration:

a_y=\frac{4.03-1.72}{8.33}=0.33 m/s^2
