Answer:

E; The object is negatively charged

Explanation:

Here, we want to state the conclusion that can be drawn from a positively charged rod being attracted to an object.

Generally as we know, oppositely charged materials attract while the ones with same charges repel each other.

Thus, in this case, for the rod to attract the object, there must have been an opposite charge of negativity on the object

So we conclude that the reason why the rod attracted the object was because of the presence of opposing charges on both of them. And since the rod has taken the positive charge, it is only correct to state that the object is negatively charged

Car a runs a red light and broadsides car b, which is stopped and waiting to make a left turn. car a has a mass of 1,800kg. car

frez [133]

The law of conservation of momentum tells us that momentum is conserved, therefore total initial momentum should be equal to total final momentum. In this case, we can expressed this mathematically as:

mA vA + mB vB = m v

where, m is the mass in kg, v is the velocity in m/s

since m is the total mass, m = mA + mB, we can write the equation as:

mA vA + mB vB = (mA + mB) v

furthermore, car B was at a stop signal therefore vB = 0, hence

mA vA + 0 = (mA + mB) v

1800 (vA) = (1800 + 1500) (7.1 m/s)

Between which two points of a concave mirror should an object be placed to obtain a magnificati of -3

kobusy [5.1K]

Answer:

When object is placed between the focus (F) and pole (P) of a concave mirror, magnified and erect image of the object is formed on the back of the mirror.

When object is placed between the centre of curvature and the principal focus of a concave mirror, magnified and inverted image is formed in front of the mirror.

Calculate the average linear momentum of a particle described by the following wavefunctions: (a) eikx, (b) cos kx, (c) e−ax2 ,

Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:

a) p=0, b) p=0, c) p= ∞

Explanation:

In quantum mechanics the moment operator is given by

p = - i h’ d φ / dx

h’= h / 2π

We apply this equation to the given wave functions

a) φ = $e^{ikx}$

.d φ dx = i k $e^{ikx}$

We replace

p = h’ k $e^{ikx}$

i i = -1

The exponential is a sine and cosine function, so its measured value is zero, so the average moment is zero

p = 0

b) φ = cos kx

p = h’ k sen kx

The average sine function is zero,

p = 0

c) φ = $e^{-ax^{2} }$

d φ / dx = -a 2x $e^{-ax^{2} }$

.p = i a g ’2x $e^{-ax^{2} }$

The average moment is

p = (p₂ + p₁) / 2

p = i a h ’(-∞ + ∞)

p = ∞
