Answer:

he combs are brought closer, each one has to move, therefore a force must be applied to each one, and the only force is electrostatic. force must have the same magnitude in each one and in the opposite direction; this description is equivalent to Newton's third law.

Explanation:

A very simple experiment that we can do is to rub a brush or plastic comb with a piece of paper, this creates some electrical charges in the comb, we hang the comb by a thread.

We take another comb and we form it with the same paper, when we bring the combs closer, we see that they repel each other, this is proof that the electrical charges created are of the same type.  

If now we rub the comb with another material, for example plastic, and bring it closer to the comb that is hanging, we see that they are approaching, therefore, it is proven that the load created from another type

With these two simple experiments it can be proved that electric charges are of two types, which are called positive and negative.  

4. In the previous experiment we see that when the combs are brought closer, each one has to move, therefore a force must be applied to each one, and the only force is electrostatic. If we observe carefully we see that the breaking of the combs is the same, therefore the force must have the same magnitude in each one and in the opposite direction; this description is equivalent to Newton's third law.

Atomic nuclei are made of protons and neutrons. This fact by itself shows thatthere must be some other type of force in addition
Stells [14]

Protons and neutrons are packed together in a very small region called nucleus. Protons are positively charged and we know that like charges repel. Then how is it that protons are not repelling each other and flying away from nucleus?

You may think that gravitational force is holding all the protons together but it is not so. Gravitational force is many times weaker than repulsive force.

It is actually strong force which holds proton together. At this short distance, strong force comes into play and is several times stronger than the repulsive force.

During metamorphism, what is the major effect of chemically active fluids?
xz_007 [3.2K]

Answer:

Option b

Explanation:

Metamorphism is the process where the variation of the geological texture resulting from the different arrangement of the minerals or the variation of minerals in protoliths, i.e., pre- existing rocks take place such that there occurs no change in state of the protolith, i.e., it does not melt into magma.

The change takes place as a result of the presence of chemically active fluids, heat and pressure.

There is a reaction between the chemically active fluid and the rock through which it passes and promotes the movement of the dissolved ions of silicate and promotes the growth of the mineral grains.

Solve for x. 4(x+1)≤4x+3
alexdok [17]
4x + 4 < 4x + 3 (expand it)
4 < 3 (cancel 4x on both sides)
Since 4 < 3 is not true there is no solution.

Answer: NO SOLUTION.
