ELECTROSTATIC:

relating to stationary electric charges or fields as opposed to electric currents.

NEUTRAL:

nor negative nor positive/having no charge

POSITIVELY CHARGED:

positive charge occurs when the number of protons exceeds the number of electrons

NEGATIVELY CHARGED:

negative charge occurs when the number of electrons exceeds the number of protons.

COULOMB:

SI unit for electric charge. One coulomb is equal to the amount of charge from a current of one ampere flowing for one second.

MICROCOULOMB:

a unit of electrical charge equal to one millionth of a coulomb.

NANOCOULOMB:

Nanocoulombs are a unit of charge 1,000,000,000 times smaller than Coulomb.

CONSERVATION OF CHARGE:

constancy of the total electric charge in the universe or in any specific chemical or nuclear reaction

QUANTISATION OF CHARGE:

Charge quantization is the principle that the charge of any object is an integer multiple of the elementary charge.

Tatiana [17]

Answer:

D). A sudden change in temperature increased the density of the atmosphere.

Explanation:

The claim that can be made and supported with evidence regarding the temporary decrease in light would be 'a sudden change in temperature will increase the density of the atmosphere.' <u>As the temperature increases, the molecules in the atmosphere begin to move fastly which causes a decrease in atmosphere density while it increases with the fall in temperature. As a result, the intensity of sunlight gets affected due to molecules being heavier and floating in the atmosphere</u>. Thus, <u>option D</u> is the correct answer.

What is dispersion, and how is it related to diffraction and refraction?
iragen [17]
Refraction is simply the bending of light when it moves from one material into another. If light is beamed at 90° to a surface, no bending happens. But if you shine the light at an angle it will bend one way or another.
   
    Diffraction is a process in which a beam of light travels through a gap or around a barrier, and spreads out as a result.

<span>   Dispersion is the property that the speed of light in a transparent material is different for different wavelengths. Thus the index of refraction is likewise different.</span>

Will mark as BRAINLIEST.....
Jlenok [28]

Answer: initially the packet was ascending up with the balloon.

Taking upward as positive direction;

initial velocity, u = 4.9 m/s

final velocity = v m/s

initial height, h₁ = 245 m  

final height, h₂ = 0

a = -9.8 m/s²

time taken = t seconds

s = ut + 0.5at²

⇒ (h₂-h₁) = ut + 0.5at²

⇒ 0-245 = 4.9t + 0.5×(-9.8)×t²

⇒ -245 = 4.9t - 4.9t²

⇒ 4.9t² -4.9t -245 =0

Solving it, we get  t = 7.59s

v = u + at = 4.9 -9.8×7.59 = 4.9 - 74.38 = -69.48 m/s

So velocity is 69.48 m/s downward

Two men, Joel and Jerry, each pushes an object that are identical on a horizontal frictionless floor starting from rest. Joel an
Nataliya [291]

Answer:

The work done by Joel is greater than the work done by Jerry.

Explanation:

Let suppose that forces are parallel or antiparallel to the direction of motion. Given that Joel and Jerry exert constant forces on the object, the definition of work can be simplified as:

W = F\cdot \Delta s

Where:

W - Work, measured in joules.

F - Force exerted on the object, measured in newtons.

\Delta s - Travelled distance by the object, measured in meters.

During the first 10 minutes, the net work exerted on the object is zero. That is:

W_{net} = W_{Joel} - W_{Jerry}

W_{net} = F\cdot \Delta s - F\cdot \Delta s

W_{net} = (F-F)\cdot \Delta s

W_{net} = 0\cdot \Delta s

W_{net} = 0\,J

In exchange, the net work in the next 5 minutes is the work done by Joel on the object:

W_{net} = W_{Joel}

W_{net} = F\cdot \Delta s

Hence, the work done by Joel is greater than the work done by Jerry.
