Static electricity<span> is caused by the build up of </span>electrical<span> charges on the surface of objects, while </span>current electricity<span> is a phenomenon from the flow of electrons along a conductor. 2. When objects are rubbed, a loss and/or gain of electrons occurs, which results in the phenomenon of </span>static electricity<span>.</span>

How is velocity ratio of wheel and axle calculatedaad<br>​
iogann1982 [59]

Answer:

VR = \frac{Radius of wheel}{Radius of axle}

Explanation:

A machine is a device that can be used to overcome a load by the application of an effort through a pivot. Examples are: pulleys, wedge, screw jack, wheel and axle etc.

The wheel and axle is a simple device that can be used to lift a load through a height. Its velocity ratio (VR) can be determined by:

VR = \frac{Radius of wheel}{Radius of axle}

Note that for a practical wheel and axle, the radius of the wheel is greater than the radius of the axle.

1.      A rocket is forced forward by the ______ force of its engines, expelling gases out the rear of the rocket.​
AURORKA [14]

There are two forces acting on a rocket at the moment of lift off: Thrust pushes the rocket upwards by pushing gases downwards in the opposite direction.Weight is the force due to gravity pulling the rocket downwards towards the centre of the earth.So I'm thinking the answer is THRUST.

A. How long (in ns) does it take light to travel 1.0 m in a vacuum?
suter [353]

Answer:

a) 3.33 ns

b) Water distance = 0.75 m

Glass distance = 0.66 m

Diamond distance = 0.41 m

Explanation:

We take the speed of light, c = m/s.

Speed = distance/time

Time = distance/speed

a)

t=\dfrac{1}{3.0\times10^{8}}=3.33\times10^{-9}

t = 3.33 ns

b)

Refractive index, n = speed of light in vacuum / speed of light in medium

n=\dfrac{c}{s}

s=\dfrac{c}{n}

d=s\times t

d=\dfrac{c}{n}\times \dfrac{1}{c}

d=\dfrac{1}{n}

Thus, the distance traveled in the same time is numerically equal to the reciprocal of the refractive index.

For water n = 1.333

d = 1/1.333 = 0.75 m

For glass n = 1.517

d = 0.66 m

For diamond n = 2.417

d = 0.41 m
