Answer:

shirt is little attached to the body, it can come off and fly away

Explanation:

In electrostatics, charges of different signs attract and charges of the same sign repel.

In this case, when a negative charge is placed on it, both the inventor and the shirt are charged, therefore there is a repulsive force, also there is an attraction between the positive charge of the roof attracts the negative charge, such as the shirt. of weak the two forces not greater than the resistance of the walk.

As the shirt is little attached to the body, it can come off and fly away

How much work is done on a 75 newton bowling ball when you carry it horizontally across a 10 meter room
svlad2 [7]

F = force applied to hold the weight of the bowling ball = weight of the bowling ball = 75 N

d = distance through which the bowling ball is moved horizontally = 10 meter

θ = angle between the force in vertically upward direction  and displacement in horizontal direction = 90

W = work done on the bowling ball

work done on the bowling ball is given as

W = F d Cosθ

inserting the values

W = (75) (10) Cos90

W =  (75) (10) (0)

W = 0 J

A radar antenna is tracking a satellite orbiting the earth. At a certain time, the radar screen shows the satellite to be 118 km
ruslelena [56]

Answer:

x component 60.85 m

y component 101.031 m

Explanation:

We have given distance r = 118 km

Angle which makes from ground = 58.9°

(a) X component of distance  is given by r_x=rcos\Theta =118\times cos58.9=118\times 0.5165=118=60.85m

(b) Y component of distance is given by r_Y=rcos\Theta =118\times sin58.9=118\times 0.8562=101.0316m

These are the x and y component of position vector

A bird lands on a bare copper wire carrying a current of 51
nirvana33 [79]
The resistance of the piece of wire is
R= \frac{\rho L}{A}
where
\rho = 1.68 \cdot 10^{-8}\Omega m is the resistivity of the copper
L=5.1 cm=0.051 m is the length of the piece of wire
A=0.13 cm^2 = 0.13 \cdot 10^{-4} m^2 is the cross sectional area of the wire
By substituting these values, we find the value of R:
R= \frac{\rho L}{A}=6.6 \cdot 10^{-5} \Omega

Then, by using Ohm's law, we find the potential difference between the two points of the wire:
V=IR=(51 A)(6.6 \cdot 10^{-5} \Omega )=3.4 \cdot 10^{-3} V
