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

Physics

Leokris [45]4 years ago

<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 student at a window on the second floor of a dorm sees her physics professor walking on the sidewalk beside the building. she
klasskru [66]
Refer to the diagram shown below.

In order for the balloon to strike the professor's head, th balloon should drop by 18 - 1.7 = 16.3 m in the time at the professor takes to walk 1 m.
The time for the professor to walk 1 m is
t = (1 m)/(0.45 m/s) = 2.2222 s

The initial vertical velocity of the balloon is zero.
The vertical drop of the balloon in 2.2222 s is
h = (1/2)*(9.8 m/s²)*(2.2222 s)² = 24.197 m

Because 24.97 > 16.3, the balloon lands in front of the professor, and does not hit the professor.

The time for the balloon to hit the ground is
(1/2)*(9.8)*t² = 18
t = 1.9166 s

The time difference is 2.2222 - 1.9166 = 0.3056 s
Within this time interval, the professor travels 0.45*0.3056 = 0.175 m
Therefore the balloon falls 0.175 m in front of the professor.

Answer: 
The balloon misses the professor, and falls 0.175 m in front of the professor.

Kinematics practice problems Answers: 4. A race car is traveling at +76 m/s when is slows down at -9 m/s2 for 4
arlik [135]

The new velocity after 4 s is 40 m/s

The height of the spaceship above the ground after 5 seconds is 1,127.5 m

The given parameters for the first question;

  • initial velocity of the car, u = 76 m/s
  • acceleration of the car, a = - 9 m/s²
  • time of motion, t = 4 s

The new velocity after 4 s is calculated as;

v = u + at

v = 76 + (-9)(4)

v = 76 - 36

v = 40 m/s

(5)

The given parameters;

  • height above the ground, h = 500 m
  • velocity of spaceship, u = 150 m/s
  • time of motion, t = 5

The height of the spaceship above the ground after 5 seconds is calculated as;

h_y = h_0 + ut - \frac{1}{2}gt^2\\\\h_y = 500 + (150\times 5) -  (0.5\times 9.8 \times 5^2)\\\\h_y = 1,127.5 \ m
