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.

Which statements describe using genetic factors to influence the growth of organisms? Select the three (3) that apply.
Damm [24]

Answer:

- increasing use of hybrid crops

- altering genes in DNA to create new plants

- developing disease or pest resistant crops

Explanation:

The use of genetic factors to influence the growth of a plant encompasses manipulating the genetic constituent (gene) of such plant.

For example,

- Increasing use of hybrid crops entails mating two pure bred plants based on a gene of interest responsible for a particular trait, to form a hybrid.

- Altering genes in DNA to create new plants is also a genetic factor as it has to with gene modification.

- developing disease or pest resistant crops means that the genetic make up of such plant has been modified to be resistant to pest/disease.

Why does the closed top of a convertible bulge when the car is riding along a highway? Why does the closed top of a convertible
iren2701 [21]

Answer:

Option D

The air pressure inside the car is greater than the pressure outside.

Explanation:

When considering airflow over and around a surface, from Bernoulli's equation, air flow regions with higher velocity have a lower pressure, and regions with lower velocity have a higher pressure.

The air outside the convertible is moving faster than the air inside the convertible. This leads to a higher pressure zone just below the surface of the roof (inside the car) causing the roof of the convertible to bulge upwards

Eric has a mass of 70 . He is standing on a scale in an elevator that is accelerating downward at 1.7 . What is the approximate
pychu [463]

Answer:

B)

Explanation:

The value the scale shows is the reaction force to the normal force (they are equal by Newton's 3rd Law) that the scale exerts on Eric.

The forces on Eric are his weight (downward) and this normal force (upward), so we can write the net force over him as (also using Newton's 2nd Law):

F=W-N=ma

which means

N=W-ma=mg-ma=m(g-a)

and for our values this is:

N=mg-ma=(70kg)(9.8m/s^2-1.7m/s^2)=567N

Do solar panels create enough energy to power the car throughout the day?
JulijaS [17]

Answer:

Yes, but only if it's sunny.

Explanation:

As you know, solar panels generate energy through the sun's rays of light (better known as sunlight). Therefore, as long as the sun is shining high in the sky, the car will generate electricity and be able to function. If this vehicle was only powered by solar panels, it would not function during the night, in cloudy areas, and/or in dark places (such as parking garages or home garages).

Hope this helps!
