The question is incomplete. The complete question is :

Two conducting spheres are mounted on insulating rods. They both carry some initial electric charge, and are far from any other charge. Their charges are measured. Then, the spheres are allowed to briefly touch, and the charge in one of them (sphere A) is measured again. These are the measured values:

 a). Before contact:

Sphere A = 4.8 nC

Sphere B = 0 nC

What is the charge on sphere B after contact, in nC?

b). Before contact:

Sphere A = 2.9 nC

Sphere B = -4.4 nC

What is the charge on sphere B after contact, in nC?

Solution :

It is given that there are two spheres that are conducting and are mounted on an insulating rods which carry a initial charge and they are briefly touched and then one of the charge is measured.

Here the charge becomes divided when  both the spheres are connected and then removed.

a). charge after they are charged

   $Q = \frac{q_1+q_2}{2}$

    $Q = \frac{4.8+0}{2}$

      = 2.4 nC

b). The charge is

    $Q = \frac{q_1-q_2}{2}$

    $Q = \frac{2.9-4.4}{2}$

      = -0.75 nC

A bicycle wheel with radius 0.3 m rotates from rest to 3 rev/s in 5 s. What is the magnitude and direction of the total accelera
AlekseyPX

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

Radius of bicycle wheel r=0.3\ m

Initial angular velocity \omega _0=0

It rotates 3 revolution in 5 s therefore

\omega =2\pi 3=\6\pi =18.85\ rad/s

using \omega =\omega _0+\alpha t

where \alpha =angular\ acceleration

\omega =Final\ angular\ velocity

t=time

\alpha =\frac{18.85}{5}=3.77 rad/s^2

Total acceleration of any point will be a vector sum of tangential acceleration and centripetal acceleration

\omega at t=1

\omega =0+3.77\times 1=3.77 rad/s

a_c=\omega ^2\cdot r

a_c=(3.77)^2\cdot 0.3=4.26 m/s^2

Tangential acceleration a_t=\alpha \times r

a_t=3.77\times 0.3=1.13 m/s^2

a_{net}=\sqrt{a_t^2+a_c^2}

a_{net}=\sqrt{(1.13)^2+(4.26)^2}

a_{net}=4.41 m/s^2

Part B
Katena32 [7]

Answer:

While slavery was the major issue separating the North and South, it was not slavery itself that sparked the conflict. The South wanted to secede from the Union, and the North refused. While President Abraham Lincoln personally opposed slavery, he recognized that it was legal under the U.S. Constitution at the time. He also recognized that few in the North were ready to go to war to free the slaves. For Lincoln and the northern majority, preservation of the Union was the foremost goal.

Water has the ability to dissolve polar covalent molecules like sucrose by
Alla [95]

Explanation:

Sucrose is a disaccharide which is composed of fructose and glucose. Sucrose molecule has oxygen atoms bonded to hydrogen atoms (O-H bonds - Polar groups) on all ends of its double 6-Carbon ring. The areas near the oxygen atoms are slightly negative, and the areas near the hydrogen atoms are slightly positive that is, the O-H bonds are polar. They bond with the neighbouring Oxygen and Hydrogen atoms because of their

dipole - dipole attractions and hence hydrogen bonds are formed.

However, the covalent bonds within the molecule aren't broken. But rather, the hydrogen bonds holding the sucrose molecules in the crystalline lattice.

How fast would 40 Newtons of force accelerate a 2 kg object?
Digiron [165]

Answer:

20 m/s^2

Explanation:

We can solve this problem by using Newton's second law of motion, which states that the net force acting on an object is equal to the product between its mass and its acceleration:

F=ma

where

F is the net force on the object

m is its mass

a is its acceleration

In this problem:

F = 40 N is the force on the object

m = 2 kg is its mass

Therefore, the acceleration of the object is

a=\frac{F}{m}=\frac{40}{2}=20 m/s^2
