A student is constructing an investigation on static electricity. The student has three balloons and rubs two of them on a piece

of wool. The student then touches each balloon to the wall to observe if static electricity would cause the balloon to stick. What is the independent variable in this investigation.

Explanation:

As given, the student has three balloons and rubs two of them on a piece of wool. The rubbing of balloon on wool is the independent variable as it was done on two and not on the third as control.

What is the most likely reason it is dangerous to break open a compressed gas tank?

erastova [34]

The main reason why it's very dangerous to open compress gas tank is it can cause major disaster not only in human but also in plants and animals. Compress gas is flammable. And it's like a bomb the damage of gas tank is very catastrophic. It is very harmful if mishandled.

There is a naturally occurring vertical electric field near the Earth’s surface that points toward the ground. In fair weather c

trasher [3.6K]

Answer:

$\frac{F}{W} = 9.37 \times 10^{-4}$

Explanation:

Radius of the pollen is given as

$r = 12.0 \mu m$

Volume of the pollen is given as

$V = \frac{4}{3}\pi r^3$

$V = \frac{4}{3}\pi (12\mu m)^3$

$V = 7.24 \times 10^{-15} m^3$

mass of the pollen is given as

$m = \rho V$

$m = 7.24 \times 10^{-12}$

so weight of the pollen is given as

$W = mg$

$W = (7.24 \times 10^{-12})(9.81)$

$W = 7.1 \times 10^{-11}$

Now electric force on the pollen is given

$F = qE$

$F = (-0.700\times 10^{-15})(95)$

$F = 6.65 \times 10^{-14} N$

now ratio of electric force and weight is given as

$\frac{F}{W} = \frac{6.65 \times 10^{-14}}{7.1 \times 10^{-11}}$

$\frac{F}{W} = 9.37 \times 10^{-4}$

A sinusoidal wave has the following wave function: y(x,t) = (2.5 m) sin((3.0 m ) x - (24 s-')t + Tt/2] What is the frequency of

vladimir1956 [14]

Answer:

Frequency of the wave is 3.8 hertz.

Explanation:

It is given that, the sinusoidal wave has following wave equation as :

$y(x,t)=(2.5\ m)sin[(3\ m^{-1})x-(24\ s^{-1})t+\pi/2]$

The general equation for the sinusoidal wave is :

$y=A\ sin(kx-\omega t+\phi)$

Where

A is the amplitude

k is the constant

$\omega$ is the angular frequency

$\phi$ is the phase difference

Since, $\omega=24\ s^{-1}$

$2\pi f=24$

$f=\dfrac{24}{2\pi}=3.81\ Hz$

or

f = 3.8 Hz

So, the frequency of the wave is 3.8 hertz. Hence, this is the required solution.
