8 0

Answer:

C. It is caused by flowing negatively charged particles.

Explanation:

Current electricity is caused by flowing negatively charged particles. The negatively charged particles that are responsible for the flow of electricity are called electrons.

The force is equal at all points in the field as the field lines are parallel in a uniform field. So, negatively charged particles will move in the opposite direction to the current.

Hence, the correct answer is "C. It is caused by flowing negatively charged particles."

A boy throws a ball up into the air with a speed of 8.2 m/s. The ball has a mass of 0.3 kg. How much gravitational potential ene
diamong [38]
We can use the law of conservation of energy to solve the problem.

The total mechanical energy of the system at any moment of the motion is:
E=U+K = mgh + \frac{1}{2}mv^2
where U is the potential energy and K the kinetic energy.

At the beginning of the motion, the ball starts from the ground so its altitude is h=0 and therefore its potential energy U is zero. So, the mechanical energy is just kinetic energy:
E_i = K_i =  \frac{1}{2}mv^2 =  \frac{1}{2}(0.3 kg)(8.2 m/s)^2=10.09 J

When the ball reaches the maximum altitude of its flight, it starts to go down again, so its speed at that moment is zero: v=0. So, its kinetic energy at the top is zero. So the total mechanical energy is just potential energy:
E_f = U_f
But the mechanical energy must be conserved, Ef=Ei, so we have
U_f = K_i
and so, the potential energy at the top of the flight is
U_f = K_i = 10.09 J

If an astronomer wants to find and identify as many stars as possible in a star cluster that has recently formed near the surfac
Andru [333]

Answer:

<em>Infrared telescope and camera</em>

<em></em>

Explanation:

An infrared telescope uses infrared light to detect celestial bodies. The infrared radiation is one of the known forms of electromagnetic radiation. Infrared radiation is given off by a body possessing some form of heat. All bodies above the absolute zero temperature in the universe radiates some form of heat, which can then be detected by an infrared telescope, and infrared radiation can be used to study or look into a system that is void of detectable visible light.

Stars are celestial bodies that are constantly radiating heat. In order to see a clearer picture of the these bodies, <em>Infrared images is better used, since they are able to penetrate the surrounding clouds of dust,</em> and have located many more stellar components than any other types of telescope, especially in dusty regions of star clusters like the Trapezium cluster.

Calculate the pressure exerted on the floor when an elephant who weighs 6000 N stands on one foot which has an area of 20 m2
kondor19780726 [428]

Answer:

300 Pascal

Explanation:

Given

weight or force (F) = 6000 N

area (A) = 20 m²

pressure (p) = ?

we know

the force acting normally per unit area is pressure. So

P = F / A

= 6000 / 20

= 300 Pascal

Hope it will help :)

50 POINTS !!!
shepuryov [24]

Answer:

a) I = 464 kg m²,  b)  K = 631 .6 J, c)  v = 8.25 m / s

Explanation:

a) the moment of inertia of point particles is

          I = ∑ m_i r_i²

in this case

          I = 8 5² + 3 (-2) ² + 7 (-6) ²

          I = 464 kg m²

b) The kinetic energy is

          K = ½ I w²

          K = ½ 464 1.65²

          K = 631 .6 J

c) linear and angular velocity are related

          v = w r

          v = 1.65 5

          v = 8.25 m / s
