A 2.00-gram air inflated balloon is given an excess negative charge, q1 = -3.25 × 10-8 C, by rubbing it with a blanket. It is fo

und that a charged rod can be held above the balloon at a distance of d = 5.00 cm to make the balloon float. In order for this to occur, what polarity of charge must the rod possess? How much charge, q2, does the rod have? Assume the balloon and rod to be point charges. The Coulomb force constant is 1/(4π ε0) = 8.99 × 109 N·m2/C2 and the acceleration due to gravity g = 9.81 m/s2.

Answer:

The rod`s charge must be positive,  because the gravity force is pointing downwards and the electrostatic force must be pointing upwards (in order to balance the gravity force)

The charge is q_2 = 1.667 times 10^(-7) C

Explanation:

F_e = F_g

where F_g = m g and F_e= (1/4 pi e_0)*(q_1*q_2)/d^2,

Which describes a scientist being creative?
AleksandrR [38]

Answer: Sara tries turning a test tube upside down to collect a gas.

A scientist is considered to be creative when he approaches a problem with new different ways. The conventional way is to design an experiment and take detailed notes, reading referenced studies previously done. Sara tries turning a test tube upside down to collect a gas is a creative way as Sara tries something different.

What do you measure when you measure an object’s mass?
Effectus [21]

Answer:

how much space it takes up in the world

Explanation:

1) Mass is a measurement of the amount of matter something contains, while Weight is the measurement of the pull of gravity on an object. 2) Mass is measured by using a balance comparing a known amount of matter to an unknown amount of matter. Weight is measured on a scale.

why is a train more difficult to stop then a rolling ball even if they are traveling at the same speed? URGENT
zloy xaker [14]
Think of the formula force=mass x acceleration. even though they have the same acceleration, a train has more mass. is that helpful?

A glider is gliding through the air at a height of 416 meters with a speed of 45.2 m/s. The glider
julia-pushkina [17]

There's not enough information to find an answer.

I think the idea here is that in descending (416 - 278) = 138 meters,
the glider gives up some gravitational potential energy, which
becomes kinetic energy at the lower altitude.  This is all well and
good, but we can't calculate the difference in potential energy
without knowing the mass of the glider.
