A student plans an investigation to determine whether an object has a positive charge, a negative charge, or is electrically neu

tral. Which statements describe procedures and the expected results that the student should follow?
A)
Bring a pith ball that has a negative charge near the object. If the ball is repelled, the object is electrically neutral.



B)
Bring a pith ball that has a positive charge near the object. If the ball is repelled, the object has a positive charge.



C)
Bring a pith ball that has a negative charge near the object. If the ball is attracted, the object has a positive charge.



D)
Bring a pith ball that has a positive charge near the object. If the ball is attracted, the object is electrically neutral.



E)
Bring a pith ball that has a negative charge near the object. If the ball is repelled, the object is electrically neutral.



F)
Bring a pith ball that has a positive charge near the object. If the ball is attracted, the object has a negative charge.

Answer:

Hope it helps

Explanation:

The number of electrons that surround the nucleus will determine whether or not an atom is electrically charged or electrically neutral. The amount of charge on a single proton is equal to the amount of charge possessed by a single electron. A proton and an electron have an equal amount but an opposite type of charge. Thus, if an atom contains equal numbers of protons and electrons, the atom is described as being electrically neutral. On the other hand, if an atom has an unequal number of protons and electrons, then the atom is electrically charged (and in fact, is then referred to as an ion rather than an atom). Any particle, whether an atom, molecule or ion, that contains less electrons than protons is said to be positively charged. Conversely, any particle that contains more electrons than protons is said to be negatively charged

Feng and Isaac are riding on a merry-ground. Feng rides on a horse at the outer rim of the circular platform, twice as far from
kogti [31]

Answer: The question is incomplete or missing details. here is the remaining part of the question ;

1. impossible to determine

2. half of Isaac’s

3. the same as Isaac’s

4. twice Isaac’s

The angular speed of feng will be the same as that of Isaac. Hence the answer is option 3

Explanation:

Since we have been told that both feng and isaac are riding on a merry go round i.e in a circular motion, irrespective of how fast one ride above the other, the angular speed will be constant since they are riding on a merry go round, as such both feng and isaac will maintain equal angular speed, hence the angular speed of feng will be the same as that of Isaac.

In the bohr model, what is the ratio of its kinetic energy to its potential energy?
stich3 [128]

The centrifugal force C = mv^2/r = kq^2/r^2 = P centripetal force. m is the electron mass, q are the proton and electron charges (opposites), and r is the Bohr radius.

Thus 1/2 mv^2/r = 1/2 kq^2/r^2 and KE = 1/2 mv^2 = 1/2 kq^2/r = 1/2 PE

Therefore KE/PE = 1/2, no matter what state the electron is in.

In a rigid container, as the temperature of a gas decreases, the pressure of the gas will decrease. t f
Sergio039 [100]
The answer is true: the pressure of a gas will decrease as temperature decreases in a rigid container.

This is one of the central gas laws called the Gay-Lussac law that states for a given gas at a constant volume, the pressure of the gas is directly proportional to its temperature. We also know that as temperature reduces, so too does molecular interaction. Increased temperature results in increased pressure, and decreased temperature therefore results in decreased pressure.

Using hooke's law find the elastic constant of a spring that stretches 2 cm when 4newton force is applied to it
Kay [80]

<u>Answer:</u>

2N/cm

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

According to the Hooke's Law, the force required to extend or compress a spring is directly proportional distance you can stretch it, which is represented as:

F=kx

where, F is the force which is stretching or compressing the spring,

k is the spring constant; and

x is the distance the spring is stretched.

Substituting the given values to find the elastic constant  k to get:

F=kx

4=k(2)

k=\frac{4}{2}

k=2

Therefore, the elastic constant is 2 Newton/cm.
