A glass marble is rubbed against a piece of silk. As a result the piece of fabric acquires extra electrons. What happens to the

Natalija [7]

Answer:

There was an electron transfer where the marble has lost the same amount of electrons (being positively charged) that the piece of silk has gained (being negatively charged).

Explanation:

As a result of this transfer of electrons and the charges induced in the objects they will attract.

When a body is endowed with electrical properties, that is, it acquires electrical charges, it is said to have been electrified.

Electrification is one of the phenomena that studies electrostatics.

To explain how static electricity originates, we must consider that matter is made of atoms, and atoms of charged particles, a nucleus surrounded by a cloud of electrons. Normally, matter is neutral (not electrified), it has the same number of positive and negative charges.

Some atoms are easier to lose their electrons than others. If a material tends to lose some of its electrons when it comes into contact with another, it is said to be more positive in the Triboelectric series. If a material tends to capture electrons when it comes into contact with another material, that material is more negative in the triboelectric series.

Two tons of water is pumped into a tank 15 ft. High in 5 minutes. Determine the power output of the pump. (Note: One ton is equa

Semmy [17]

Answer:

200 lb•ft/s

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Force (F) = 2 tons

Time (t) = 5 mins

Height (h) = 15 ft

Power (P) =?

Next, we shall convert 2 tons to pound. This can be obtained as follow:

1 ton = 2000 lb

Therefore,

2 tons = 2 × 2000

2 tons = 4000 lb

Next, we shall convert 5 mins to seconds. This can be obtained as follow:

1 min = 60 s

Therefore,

5 mins = 5 × 60

5 mins = 300 s

Finally, we shall determine the power of the pump. This can be obtained as follow:

Force (F) = 4000 lb

Time (t) = 300 s

Height (h) = 15 ft

Power (P) =?

P = F × h / t

P = 4000 × 15 / 300

P = 60000 / 300

P = 200 lb•ft/s

Thus, the power of the pump is 200 lb•ft/s

Seems to be an ideal gas law question. The relevant equation is:

PV = nRT

where P is the pressure in atmospheres, V is the volume in liters, n is the number of moles of gas, R is the gas constant (0.082 atm-L/mole-deg K), and T is temperature in Kelvins. STP means standard temperature and pressure and this is taken as 1 atm and 0º C or 273 K.

To calculate the number of molecules we will use the constant 6.023 * 10^23 molecules/mole and, therefore, we will need to know the number of moles (n). So, first we’ll rearrange the gas law equation, isolating ’n’ and then put the numbers in.

n = PV/RT = 1 * 1 / (0.082)(273) = 0.0447 moles

So, to calculate the number of molecules, multiple this by the number of molecules in a mole and you get:

# molecules of nitrogen in 1 Liter at STP = 6.023 * 10^23 molecules/mole * 0.0447 moles = 2.6905 * 10^22 molecules

Note, it does not matter what the gas is.

In which direction does the wind blow from during a sea breeze

Nadusha1986 [10]

Answer:

Sea breeze moves from the areas of higher pressure on the water in the direction of the areas of lower pressure on land.

Explanation:

Sea breeze moves from the areas of higher pressure on the water in the direction of the areas of lower pressure on land. Whereas, land breeze blows from the areas of higher pressure on land to the areas of lower pressure on water.
