22. State any three features of the electroscope.

1 answer:

-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.

The combined momentum of the passengers is 5000 kgm/s.

<h3>Combined momentum of the passenger</h3>

The combined momentum of the passengers is calculated as follows;

P = mv1 + mv2

where;

m is mass of the passengers
v1 is velocity of the first passenger
v2 is velocity of the second passenger

P = m(v1 + v2)

P = 5000(-1 + 2)

P = 5000 kgm/s

Thus, the combined momentum of the passengers is 5000 kgm/s.

Kevin decides to soup up his car by replacing the car's wheels with ones that have 1.4 times the diameter of the original wheels

True [87]

Answer:

No.

Explanation:

Given that Kevin decides to soup up his car by replacing the car's wheels with ones that have 1.4 times the diameter of the original wheels. Note that the speedometer in a car is calibrated based on the tire's diameter and on the distance the tire covers in each revolution. (a) Will the reading of the speedometer change ?

Considering the formula

V = wr

Where

V = linear speed

W = angular speed

r = radius of the wheel.

But W = 2πrf

Where the the 2 and pi are constant. The radius of the first wheel will be small but counter balance with the larger frequency.

While the radius of the second wheel may be large but it will be of a small frequency.

We can therefore conclude that the reading on the speedometer will not change. Because speedometer will read the linear speed V.

Two small spheres with mass 10 gm and charge q, are suspended from a point by threads of length L=0.22m. What is the charge on e

Nataliya [291]

Answer:

$q=1.95*10^{-7}C$

Explanation:

According to the free-body diagram of the system, we have:

$\sum F_y: Tcos(15^\circ)-mg=0(1)\\\sum F_x: Tsin(15^\circ)-F_e=0(2)$

So, we can solve for T from (1):

$T=\frac{mg}{cos(15^\circ)}(3)$

Replacing (3) in (2):

$(\frac{mg}{cos(15^\circ)})sin(15^\circ)=F_e$

The electric force ( $F_e$ ) is given by the Coulomb's law. Recall that the charge q is the same in both spheres:

$(\frac{mg}{cos(15^\circ)})sin(15^\circ)=\frac{kq^2}{r^2}(4)$

According to pythagoras theorem, the distance of separation (r) of the spheres are given by:

$sin(15^\circ)=\frac{\frac{r}{2}}{L}\\r=2Lsin(15^\circ)(5)$

Finally, we replace (5) in (4) and solving for q:

$mgtan(15^\circ)=\frac{kq^2}{(2Lsin(15^\circ))^2}\\q=\sqrt{\frac{mgtan(15^\circ)(2Lsin(15^\circ))^2}{k}}\\q=\sqrt{\frac{10*10^{-3}kg(9.8\frac{m}{s^2})tan(15^\circ)(2(0.22m)sin(15^\circ))^2}{8.98*10^{9}\frac{N\cdot m^2}{C^2}}}\\q=1.95*10^{-7}C$
