Answer:

I believe its true

Explanation:

Gasoline is the most common fire accelerant used but it could also be present at a scene as an ignitable liquid due to gasoline being a common fuel. Although ignitable liquids are the most common fire accelerants it is possible to have other chemicals being used as a fire accelerant.

Vedmedyk [2.9K]

Answer:

<em>The best explanation is that the first person is grounded to the earth, and his/her body either draws up negative charges from the earth, or tend to conducts negative charges to the earth, depending on the charge on the balloon.</em>

Explanation:

The earth is an infinite store for charges. In the first case where the second person brings a negatively charged balloon towards the first person, the negative charges on the balloon induces the first person's body to tend to attract the negative charges on the balloon through the first person's body to the positive charges within the earth. In the second case when again a positively charged balloon is brought near the first person's hair, the positive charges on the balloon induce the first person's body into drawing up negative charges from within the earth. This charges, and their opposite induced charges, create an attractive force between the hair strands and the balloons.

A satellite is to be launched into an orbit of radius,r Show that v = 2gr, where V is the
Snezhnost [94]

Explanation:

We start by using the conservation law of energy:

\Delta{K} + \Delta{U} = 0

or

\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2 - G\dfrac{mM}{r} = 0

Simplifying the above equation, we get

v^2 = 2G\dfrac{M}{r}

We can rewrite this as

v^2 = 2\left(G\dfrac{M}{r^2}\right)r

Note that the expression inside the parenthesis is simply the acceleration due to gravity g so we can write

v^2 = 2gr

where v is the launch velocity.
