A charged balloon will stick to a neutral wall. which process is involved?

1 answer:

3 0

<span>The charged balloon will stick to a neutral wall because of the Static Electricity:
</span>
The matter is formed by atoms and these atoms are composed of electrons, protons and neutrons (the electrons have a negative charge, the protons have a positive charge and the neutrons have no charge).

As the balloon is charged (It gained electrons), and the charge of the same sign repel each other, when it approaches the wall, the electrons of this wall will move away, and the positive charges (protons) will remain in the nearest area to the balloon. As the charges of different signs are attracted, the balloon will be stuck to the wall.

A rain cloud contains 5.32 × 107 kg of water vapor. The acceleration of gravity is 9.81 m/s 2 . How long would it take for a 2.0

Alja [10]

Answer:

20.85 years

Explanation:

2.61 km = 2610 m

2.07 kW = 2070 W

First we need to calculate the potential energy required to take m = $5.32 * 10^7$ kg of rain cloud to an altitude of 2610 m is

$E = mgh = 5.32 * 10^7 * 9.81 * 2610 = 1.4*10^{12}J$

With a P = 2070 W power pump, this can be done within a time frame of

$t = E/P = \frac{1.4*10^{12}}{2070} = 658037739 s$

or 658037739/(60*60) = 182788 hours or 182788 / 24 = 7616 days or 7616 / 365.25 = 20.85 years

In unit-vector notation, what is the torque about the origin on a particle located at coordinates (0 m, −3.0 m, 2.0 m) due to fo

irinina [24]

Answer:

The torque about the origin is $2.0Nm\hat{i}-8.0Nm\hat{j}-12.0Nm\hat{k}$

Explanation:

Torque $\overrightarrow{\tau}$ is the cross product between force $\overrightarrow{F}$ and vector position $\overrightarrow{r}$ respect a fixed point (in our case the origin):

$\overrightarrow{\tau}=\overrightarrow{r}\times\overrightarrow{F}$

There are multiple ways to calculate a cross product but we're going to use most common method, finding the determinant of the matrix:

$\overrightarrow{r}\times\overrightarrow{F} =-\left[\begin{array}{ccc} \hat{i} & \hat{j} & \hat{k}\\ F1_{x} & F1_{y} & F1_{z}\\ r_{x} & r_{y} & r_{z}\end{array}\right]$

$\overrightarrow{r}\times\overrightarrow{F} =-((F1_{y}r_{z}-F1_{z}r_{y})\hat{i}-(F1_{x}r_{z}-F1_{z}r_{x})\hat{j}+(F1_{x}r_{y}-F1_{y}r_{x})\hat{k})$

$\overrightarrow{r}\times\overrightarrow{F} =-((0(2.0m)-0(-3.0m))\hat{i}-((4.0N)(2.0m)-(0)(0))\hat{j}+((4.0N)(-3.0m)-0(0))\hat{k})$

$\overrightarrow{r}\times\overrightarrow{F}=-2.0Nm\hat{i}+8.0Nm\hat{j}+12.0Nm\hat{k}=\overrightarrow{\tau}$

Brums [2.3K]

Answer:

50N

Explanation:

Force (N) = mass (kg) × acceleration (m/s²)

A loop of wire is placed in a uniform magnetic field. (a) For what orientation of the loop is the magnetic flux a maximum? The p

ra1l [238]

Answer:

1) The plane of the loop is perpendicular to the magnetic field.

2) The magnetic flux is independent of the orientation of the loop.p

Explanation:

The flux is calculated as φ=BAcosθ. The flux is therefore the highest when the magnetic field vector is perpendicular to the plane of the loop We can also deduce that the flux is zero when there is no magnetic field part perpendicular to the loop When the angle reaches zero, the flux is in the limit because when the angle becomes zero, the cos is the maximum.
