22. State any three features of the electroscope.

1 answer:

7 0

-1- was created in the 1600 by william gilbert
-2-When the charge is positive, electrons in the metal of the electroscope are attracted to the charge and move upward out of the leaves. This results in the leaves to have a temporary positive charge and because like charges repel, the leaves separate. When the charge is removed, the electrons return to their original positions and the leaves relax
3-

An electroscope is made up of a metal detector knob on top which is connected to a pair of metal leaves hanging from the bottom of the connecting rod. When no charge is present the metals leaves hang loosely downward. But, when an object with a charge is brought near an electroscope, one of the two things can happen.

Part A

geniusboy [140]

Answer:

a) b = -5

b) slope = 3/2

Explanation:

a) The equation of a line is given as y = mx + b, where m is the slope of the line and b is the intercept on the y axis.

Given that y = 3x + b and it passes through the point (2, 1). Hence when x = 2, y = 1. Therefore, substituting for x and y:

1 = 3(2) + b

1 = 6 + b

b = 1 - 6

b = -5

b) The equation of a line passing through two points ( $x_1,y_1$ ) and $x_2,y_2$ is given by:

$y-y_1=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}(x-x_1)$

The equation of the line passing through the two points (0,3) and (4,9) is:

$y-3=\frac{9-3}{4-0}(x-0)\\ \\y-3=\frac{3}{2}x\\ \\y = \frac{3}{2}x+3$

Comparing y = (3/2)x + 3 with y = mx + b, the slope (m) is 3/2

How do soaring birds utilize convection? A : They use the warm air to stay warm.

Zepler [3.9K]

Answer:

Option B. They use thermal updrafts to stay aloft

Explanation:

The sunlight warms the surface of the earth during noon and morning time and when this warming of the Earth's surface is not evenly done or uniform then this gives rise to the thermals. These are the rising air columns and rises when the air nearest to the earth heats up.

This is how some birds like vultures make use of the thermal updrafts to maintain flight.
