HACTEHA [7]2 years ago

Answer:

Positive charge is attracted to the neutral object.

Explanation:

Recall ; Like charges repel, unlike charges attract. This phrase simply means (positive (+) is attracted to negative (-ve) and vuc versa while both positive, positive and negative, negative charge repel.

For a neutral object. The quantity of positive charge equals the quantity of negative charges. This simply means a neutral object contains charges as well, which are usually scattered or randomly aligned.

Therefore, when a positive charge is brought near a neutral body, the order of alignment of the charges change, with the negative charge all moving towards the direction of the positively charged body and the positive charges in the neutral body aligning in the opposite direction.

A small ball of mass 2.00 kilograms is moving at a velocity 1.50 meters/second. It hits a larger, stationary ball of mass 5.00 k
rewona [7]

The kinetic energy of the small ball before the collision is

                             KE  =  (1/2) (mass) (speed)²

                                     = (1/2) (2 kg) (1.5 m/s)

                                     =    (1 kg)  (2.25 m²/s²)

                                     =        2.25 joules.

Now is a good time to review the Law of Conservation of Energy:

                     Energy is never created or destroyed. 
                     If it seems that some energy disappeared,
                     it actually had to go somewhere.
                     And if it seems like some energy magically appeared,
                     it actually had to come from somewhere.

The small ball has 2.25 joules of kinetic energy before the collision.
If the small ball doesn't have a jet engine on it or a hamster inside,
and does not stop briefly to eat spinach, then there won't be any
more kinetic energy than that after the collision.  The large ball
and the small ball will just have to share the same 2.25 joules.

A. How many atoms of helium gas fill a spherical balloon of diameter 29.6 cm at 19.0°C and 1.00 atm? b. What is the average kine
Korolek [52]

Answer:

a) 3.39 × 10²³ atoms

b) 6.04 × 10⁻²¹ J

c) 1349.35 m/s

Explanation:

Given:

Diameter of the balloon, d = 29.6 cm = 0.296 m

Temperature, T = 19.0° C = 19 + 273 = 292 K

Pressure, P = 1.00 atm = 1.013 × 10⁵ Pa

Volume of the balloon = \frac{4}{3}\pi(\frac{d}{2})^3

or

Volume of the balloon = \frac{4}{3}\pi(\frac{0.296}{2})^3

or

Volume of the balloon, V = 0.0135 m³

Now,

From the relation,

PV = nRT

where,

n is the number of moles

R is the ideal gas constant = 8.314  kg⋅m²/s²⋅K⋅mol

on substituting the respective values, we get

1.013 × 10⁵ × 0.0135 = n × 8.314 × 292

or

n = 0.563

1 mol = 6.022 × 10²³ atoms

Thus,

0.563 moles will have = 0.563 × 6.022 × 10²³ atoms = 3.39 × 10²³ atoms

b) Average kinetic energy = \frac{3}{2}\times K_BT

where,

Boltzmann constant, K_B=1.3807\times10^{-23}J/K

Average kinetic energy = \frac{3}{2}\times1.3807\times10^{-23}\times292

or

Average kinetic energy = 6.04 × 10⁻²¹ J

c) rms speed = \frac{3RT}{m}

where, m is the molar mass of the Helium = 0.004 Kg

or

rms speed = \frac{3\times8.314\times292}{0.004}

or

rms speed = 1349.35 m/s

Does a good insulator prevent energy from getting through it, or slow its passage
9966 [12]
A good heat insulator absorbs all, or almost all, of the heat energy
from any heat that flows through it.

A good electrical insulator absorbs all, or almost all, of the energy
from any electric current that flows through it.
