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

jok3333 [9.3K]
The frequency is exactly the rate at which the bug beats its wings.
If that "600" that you mentioned is 600 beats per second, then
THAT's the frequency . . . 600 per second. (600 Hz)

A voltage is applied to a resistor,
ladessa [460]

Answer:

Explanation:

By Ohms Law, Voltage = Current * Resistance

Keeping the voltage the same and doubling the resistance, the current will be halved.

So the new current = 1.5/2 = 0.75A

Hey guys can you help me solve this problem "how long will it take a car travelling 30m/s to come to stop ifs its acceleration i
salantis [7]

Answer:

10 seconds.

Explanation:

We can use a kinematic equation where we know the final velocity, initial velocity, acceleration, and need to determine the time <em>t: </em>

<em />\displaystyle v_f = v_i + at<em />

<em />

The initial velocit is 30 m/s, the final velocity is 0 m/s (as we stopped), and the acceleration is -3 m/s².

Substitute and solve for <em>t: </em>

<em />\displaystyle \begin{aligned} (0\text{ m/s}) & = (30 \text{ m/s}) + (-3 \text{ m/s$^2$}) t \\ \\  t & = \frac{-30\text{ m/s}}{-3 \text{ m/s$^2$}} \\ \\ & = 10 \text{ s} \end{aligned}<em />

<em />

Hence, it will take the car 10 seconds to come to a stop.
