2) 
Explanation:
<h2><u>
Part 1:</u></h2>
<u></u>
The charged rod is held above the balloon and the weight of the balloon acts in downwards direction. To balance the weight of the balloon, the force on the balloon due to the rod must be directed along the upwards direction, which is only possible when the rod exerts an attractive force on the balloon and the electrostatic force on the balloon due to the rod is attractive when the polarities of the charge on the two are different.
Thus, In order for this to occur, the polarity of charge on the rod must be positive, i.e.,
is <u>positive.</u>

<u>Given:</u>
- Mass of the balloon, m = 0.00275 kg.
- Charge on the balloon,

- Distance between the rod and the balloon, d = 0.0640 m.
- Acceleration due to gravity,

In order to balloon to be float in air, the weight of the balloom must be balanced with the electrostatic force on the balloon due to rod.
Weight of the balloon, 
The magnitude of the electrostatic force on the balloon due to the rod is given by

is the Coulomb's constant.
For the elecric force and the weight to be balanced,

Answer:
a neutral atom doesn't have a charge and an ion does.
Explanation:
When atoms bond they can gain or lose electrons which gives them a charge.
anion = negatively charged ion
cation = positively charged ion
Answer:
i = 0.477 10⁴ B
the current flows in the counterclockwise
Explanation:
For this exercise let's use the Ampere law
∫ B . ds = μ₀ I
Where the path is closed
Let's start by locating the current vines that are parallel to the z-axis, so it must be exterminated along the x-axis and as the specific direction is not indicated, suppose it extends along the y-axis.
From BiotSavart's law, the field must be perpendicular to the direction of the current, so the magnetic field must go in the x direction.
We apply the law of Ampere the segment parallel to the x-axis is the one that contributes to the integral, since the other two have an angle of 90º with the magnetic field
Segment on the y axis
L₀ = (y2-y1)
L₀ = 3-0 = 3 cm
Segment on the point x = 2 cm
L₁ = 3-0
L₁ = 3cm
B L = μ₀ I
B 2L = μ₀ I
i = 2 L B /μ₀
i= 2 0.03 / 4π 10⁻⁷ B
i = 4.77 10⁴ B
The current is perpendicular to the magnetic field whereby the current flows in the counterclockwise
Answer:
1.36 x 10^-3 cm
Explanation:
Area = 50 ft^2 = 46451.5 cm^2
mass = 6 oz = 170.097 g
density = 2.70 g/cm^3
Let t be the thickness of foil in cm.
mass = volume x density
mass = area x thickness x density
170.097 = 46451.5 x t x 2.70
t = 1.36 x 10^-3 cm
Thus, the thickness of aluminium foil is 1.36 x 10^-3 cm.
Explanation:
An electrified comb is charged comb ( let say by running it through the hair) and when it is brought in the proximity of pieces of paper, the pieces tend to cling to it. This happens because the charged comb induces an opposite charge in the paper pieces and as opposite charges attract each other, the pieces are clinged.
