A charged rod is brought near one end of a long, uncharged metal block. Students want to experimentally measure the resulting ch

arge distribution along the entire length of the block. They have a small, positively charged sphere on a string that can be used as a test charge with negligible effect on the other charges. They will observe whether the sphere is attracted or repelled when held near the rod. Which of the following describes and justifies a procedure that will provide data to determine the entire charge distribution?
a. Hold the sphere near the end of the block closest to the rod, because that will give experimental data about both ends of the block.
b. Hold the sphere near each end of the block, because that will give experimental data about both ends of the block.
с. Hold the sphere near each end of the block and near the block's middle, because that will give experimental data about the area along the length of the block.
d. Hold the sphere near each end of the block and at a number of points along the length of the block, because that will give experimental data for the whole block.

A steel piano string of mass per unit lenght 4×10-⁴kgm-¹ was struck, if the speed of the sound on the string is 300ms-¹. Calcula
attashe74 [19]

Answer:

36 N

Explanation:

Velocity of a standing wave in a stretched string is:

v = √(T/ρ),

where T is the tension and ρ is the mass per unit length.

300 m/s = √(T / 4×10⁻⁴ kg/m)

T = 36 N

Calculate the speed of a bike rider who accelerates (from rest) for 5 seconds down a hill at an acceleration of 8
olya-2409 [2.1K]

Answer:

speed=abs(v)=40ms^-1

Explanation:

acceleration, a = (v-u)/t

since initial velocity u=0 (at rest) and a=8ms^-2,

8=v/5

hence after 5 seconds, v=40ms^-1

A ball is hurled straight up at a speed of 15 m/s, leaving the hand of the thrower 2.00 m above the ground. Compute the times an
SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Answer:

5.37 m/s

0.98 seconds

Explanation:

t = Time taken

u = Initial velocity

v = Final velocity

s = Displacement

a = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

v^2-u^2=2as\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{2as+u^2}\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{2\times -9.81\times 10+15^2}\\\Rightarrow v=5.37\ m/s

Velocity of the ball when it passes an observer sitting at a window is 5.37 m/s

v=u+at\\\Rightarrow t=\frac{v-u}{a}\\\Rightarrow t=\frac{5.37-15}{-9.81}\\\Rightarrow t=0.98\ s

Time taken by the ball to pass the observer sitting at a window is 0.98 seconds
