Answer:
The ball will be attracted to the negatively charged plate. It'll touch and pick up some electrons from the plate so that the ball becomes negatively charged. Immediately the ball is repelled by the negative plate and is attracted to the positive plate. The ball gives up electrons to the positive plate so that it is positively charged and suddenly attracts to the negative plate again, flies over to it and picks up enough electrons to be repulsed by negative plate and again to the positive plate and that continues.
As an object falls in response to gravitational force, its velocity increases
and its acceleration is unchanged. On Earth, its acceleration is 9.8 m/s².
Answer:
20.6 N
Explanation:
Friction equals normal force times coefficient of friction.
F = Fn μ
On level ground, normal force equal weight.
Fn = W
Therefore:
F = W μ
F = (685 N) (0.0300)
F = 20.6 N
The mistake here is that the total energy of the system does not change - generally, the total amount of energy in a system never changes unless the energy enters or leaves the system somehow (for example, if you see the Earth alone as a system, then energy from the sun enters the system and some energy is lost to space in the form of heat).
