Place a pencil or pen in front of you on the surface that you are working on. In one paragraph, using your own words, describe t

hree different forces that are currently acting on your writing utensil, despite the fact that it is currently motionless. (Hint: Remember that the pencil is made of atoms and atoms are made of protons, neutrons, and electrons).

Answer:

READ THIS FIRST!!!

I am not going to right the parragraph (it says to use your own words, they could trace it back to me if you use my words, and you would get it trouble).

But I will tell you the forces acting on the pencil:

Gravity (pulls on the pencil)

Your hand (pushing it up canceling out gravity)

And the electromagnetic force (holding the thing together)

Hope it helped,

Have a good day

A 350-g baseball is shot out of a small cannon with a velocity of 9.0 m/s. The baseball flies horizontally at a constant height
stira [4]

Answer:

9.5 kg m^2/s

Explanation:

The angular momentum of an object is given by:

L=mvr

where

m is the mass of the object

v is its velocity

r is the distance of the object from axis of rotation

Here we have:

m = 350 g = 0.35 kg is the mass of the ball

v = 9.0 m/s is the velocity

r = 3.0 m is the distance of the object from axis of rotation (if we take the ground as the centre of rotation)

Therefore, the angular momentum is:

L=(0.35)(9.0)(3.0)=9.5 kg m^2/s

A train travels 67 kilometers in 1 hours, and then 81 kilometers in 5 hours. What is its average speed?
Naddika [18.5K]
Answer: 24.7 km/h

Explanation:

1) Average speed definition and formula

The average speed is the total distance run divided by the time elapsed:

S = distance / time

2) Distance 1 = 67 km

3) Distance 2 = 81 km

4) Total distance traveled = 67 km + 81 km = 148 km

5) time 1 = 1 hour

6) time 2 = 5 hours

7) total time = time 1 + time 2 = 1 h + 5 h = 6 h

8) Average speed:

S = 148 km / 6 h = 24.7 km/h

Here is a force diagram of an object in water. The weight of the object is 15N and the buoyancy force is 17N. Will the object fl
lawyer [7]

Answer:

Object will float.

Explanation:

Total force on the body = Weight of body + Buoyancy force on body.

 Weight of body = 15 N downwards = 15 N

 Buoyancy force on body = 17 N upwards = -17 N

 Total force on body = 15 - 17 = -2 N = 2 N upwards

 So, the body will float.

Object will float.

An element carries a_____charge<br>​
ratelena [41]

Answer:

The charge of an element is equal to the number of protons minus the number of electrons. The number of protons is equal to the atomic number of the element given in the periodic table. The number of electrons is equal to the atomic number minus the charge of the atom.

In a lightning bolt, a large amount of charge flows during a time of 1.2 x 10-3 s. Assume that the bolt can be represented as a
ohaa [14]

Answer: 10.58 C has flowed during the lightning bolt

Explanation:

Given that;

Time of flow t = 1.2 × 10⁻³

perpendicular distance r = 21 m

Magnetic field B = 8.4 x 10⁻⁵ T

Now lets consider the expression for magnetic field;

B = u₀I / 2πr

the current flow is;

I = ( B × 2πr ) / u₀

so we substitute

I = ( (8.4 x 10⁻⁵) × 2 × 3.14 × 21 ) / 4π ×10⁻⁷

=  0.01107792 / 0.000001256

= 8820 A

Hence the charge flows during lightning bolt  will be;

q = It

so we substitute

q = 8820 × 1.2 × 10⁻³

q = 10.58 C

therefore 10.58 C has flowed during the lightning bolt
