If the comb and the paper are attracted to each other the charge on the paper, is D)must be positive

<h3>Laws of electrical attraction</h3>

This states that

  • Like charges attract
  • Unlike charges repel

Now, given that a negatively charged plastic comb is brought close to, but does not touch, a small piece of paper. If the comb and the paper are attracted to each other the charge on the paper, this implies that both the negatively charged plastic comb and the paper have opposite charges.

Since the charge on the plastic comb is negative, this means that the charge on the paper must be positive

So, if the comb and the paper are attracted to each other the charge on the paper, is D)must be positive

vivado [14]

The distance is 97720.5 m

From the question, we have

P = 0.06 W × 2 = 0.12 W

d = ?

Sound intensity, I = P/4πd²

I = 10⁻¹² W/m²

10⁻¹² = 0.12/4πd²

d = 97720.5 m

The distance is 97720.5 m

Sound intensity :

The power carried by sound waves per unit area in the direction  perpendicular to that region is known as sound intensity or acoustic intensity. The watt per square meter (W/m2) is the SI unit of intensity, which also covers sound intensity. Sound intensity is a measure of how quickly energy moves across a given space. The unit area in the SI measurement system is 1 m2. So Watts per square meter are used to measure sound intensity. As there will be energy flow in certain directions but not in others, sound intensity also provides a measure of direction.

An occupant of a car has a chance of surviving a crash if the deceleration during the crash is not more then 30 g. Calculate the
sweet [91]

Answer:

20,850 N

Explanation:

We can solve the problem by using second Newton's Law:

F=ma

where

F is the force

m is the mass

a is the acceleration

In this problem, we have:

m = 70 kg is the mass

a=-30 g=-30 (9.8 m/s^2)=-294 m/s^2 is the acceleration (which is negative, because it is a deceleration)

So, we can use the equation above to find the force:

F=(70 kg)(-294 m/s^2)=-20580 N

and the negative sign simply means that the force is in the opposite direction to the motion.

larisa [96]

You are sitting at the center of a large turntable at an amusement park as it is set spinning freely. You decide to crawl towards the edge of the turntable. Rotational speed will decrease

There is no external torque

hence , the angular momentum of the table is conserved

L (initial) = L ( final)

since , L = m*v*r

where

m = mass

v = velocity

r = radius

If  the person is crawled towards the outer rim, then the rotational inertia of the turntable will increase. In order to conserve the angular momentum , its rotational speed will decrease as mass and radius cannot be altered .
