Answer:

If they are metallic spheres  they are connected to earth and a charged body approaches

non- metallic (insulating) spheres in this case are charged by rubbing

Explanation:

For fillers, there are two fundamental methods, depending on the type of material.

If they are metallic spheres, they are connected to earth and a charged body approaches, this induces a charge of opposite sign and of equal magnitude, then it removes the contact to earth and the sphere is charged.

If the non- metallic (insulating) spheres in this case are charged by rubbing with some material or touching with another charged material, in this case the sphere takes half the charge and when separated each sphere has half the charge and with equal sign.

A positively charged object is brought near but not in contact with the top of an uncharged gold leaf electroscope. The experime
Olin [163]

Answer:

The leaves of the electroscope move further apart.

Explanation:

This is what happens; when the positive object is brought near the top, negative charges migrating from the gold leaves to the top. This is because the negative charges in the gold are attracted by the positive charge. Thus, it leaves behind a net positive charge on the leaves, though the scope remains neutral overall. To that effect, the leaves repel each other and move apart. If a finger touches the top of the electroscope at the moment when the positive object remains near the top, it basically grounds the electroscope and thus the net positive charge in the leaves flows to the ground through the finger. However, the positive object continues to "hold" negative charges in place at the top. Ar this moment the gold leaves have lost their net positive charge, so they no longer repel, and they move closer together. If the positive object is moved away, the negative charges at the top are no longer attracted to the top, and they redistribute themselves throughout the electroscope, moving into the leaves and charging them negatively.

Thus, the leaves move apart from each other again and we now have a negatively charged electroscope. If a negatively charged object is now brought close to the top, but without touching, the negative charges already in the electroscope will be repelled down toward the leaves, thereby making them more negative, causing them to repel more, and hence move even further apart.

So, the leaves move further apart.

Suppose the initial position of an object is zero, the starting velocity is 3 m/s and the final velocity was 10 m/s. The object
svlad2 [7]

Answer:

The area of the rectangle plus the area of the triangle under the line

Explanation:

In this case, the object moves with constant acceleration. Initial speed of the object is 0.

Equation of kinematics :

v = u +at

v = at

v is directly proportional to time. If means that the graph is straight line passing through origin. We know that area under v-t graph gives displacement. So, the correct option is (c).

The Starship Enterprise speeds past an asteroid at 0.920c. If an observer on the asteroid sees 10.0 seconds pass on her watch, h
lukranit [14]

Answer:

25.52 seconds

Explanation:

Speed of space ship = 0.92 c = v

c = Speed of light

Time observed from asteroid = Δt = 10 seconds

Time dilation

\Delta t'=\frac{\Delta t}{\sqrt{1-\frac {v^2}{c^2}}}\\\Rightarrow \Delta t'=\frac{10}{\sqrt{1-\frac {0.92^2c^2}{c^2}}}\\\Rightarrow \Delta t'=\frac{10}{\sqrt{1-0.92^2}}\\\Rightarrow \Delta t'=25.52\ s

∴ Time interval be if measured by an observer on the Enterprise would be 25.52 seconds
