Acceleration is the rate of change of the velocity of a moving object. To determine the speed the object has at a certain time, we need to determine the acceleration first by dividing the speed with the time given. We do as follows:
acceleration = 4.9 m/s / 5.1 s = 0.96 m/s^2
To determine the velocity after 7.1 s, we multiply 7.1 s to the acceleration.
speed or velocity = 0.96 x 7.1 = 6.52 m/s
Answer:
A) is repelled by the sphere.
Explanation:
When a charged insulated rod is touched with an insulated conducting sphere , some charge on the rod gets transferred to the sphere . So they become similarly charged . We all know that there is repulsion when two similarly charged object are brought near to each other . Hence here too there will be repulsion between the rod and the sphere when the rod is brought near the sphere.
