Before you start taking measurements though, we’ll first make sure you understand the underlying concepts involved. By what meth

od is each of the spheres charged?

Answer:

If they are metallic spheres they are connected to earth and a charged body approaches

non- metallic (insulating) spheres in this case are charged by rubbing

Explanation:

For fillers, there are two fundamental methods, depending on the type of material.

If they are metallic spheres, they are connected to earth and a charged body approaches, this induces a charge of opposite sign and of equal magnitude, then it removes the contact to earth and the sphere is charged.

If the non- metallic (insulating) spheres in this case are charged by rubbing with some material or touching with another charged material, in this case the sphere takes half the charge and when separated each sphere has half the charge and with equal sign.

When a car accelerates from a standing start, the crash test dummy appears to be pressed backward into the seat cushion. Which o

Setler [38]

<u>Answer:</u>

Option: D. Gravity is pulling the crash test dummy in the direction the car is moving.

<u>Explanation: </u>

When a car accelerates from a standing start, the crash test dummy appears to be pressed backward into the seat cushion because the gravity is pulling the crash test dummy in the direction the car is moving.

Basically when the car is starting, the person inside is in static position and the car is going to move. So it is putting a force on the person to move on the same speed. But as the person is sitting static hence gravity is pulling him behind from moving. Hence, The dummy appears to be pressed backward.

Richard needs to fly from san diego to halifax, nova scotia and back in order to give an important talk about mathematics. on th

kondor19780726 [428]

When plane is going towards Halifax the speed of wind is in the direction of fly

so overall the net speed of the plane will increase

while when he is on the way back the air is opposite to flight so net speed will decrease

now the total time of the journey is 13 hours

out of this 2 hours he spent in mathematics talk

so total time of the fly is 13 - 2 = 11 hours

now we have formula to find the time to travel to Halinex

$t_1 = \frac{d}{v + 50}$

time taken to reach back

$t_2 = \frac{d}{v - 50}$

now we have total time

$T = t_1 + t_2$

$11 = \frac{d}{v - 50} + \frac{d}{v + 50}$

here d= 3000 miles

$11 = \frac{3000}{v - 50} + \frac{3000}{v + 50}$

$3.67 * 10^{-3} = \frac{2v}{v^2 - 2500}$

$v^2 - 2500 = 545.45v$

solving above quadratic equation we will have

$v = 550 mph$

so speed of plane will be 550 mph

Jade and her roommate Jari commute to work each morning, traveling west on I-10. One morning Jade left for work at 6:45 A.M., bu

Veronika [31]

Answer:

Jari

Explanation:

The question requires to know who is traveling faster. This is done by comparing the gradients. The steeper the slope (high gradient), the faster the speed and vice versa.

From Jari's line, the starting point is (0, 0) and another point is (6, 7)

The gradient being change in y to change in x

Change in y=7-0=7

Change in x=6-0=6

Slope is 7/6

For Jade, first point is (0, 10) then another point is (6, 16)

Change in y=16-10=6

Change in x=6-0=6

Slope is 6/6=1

Clearly, 7/6 is greater than 6/6 or 1 hence Jari is faster than Jade

In a common but dangerous prank, a chair is pulled away as a person is moving downward to sit on it, causing the victim to land

sattari [20]

Answer:

a) Impulse |J|= 219.4 kgm/s

b) Force F = 2672 N

Explanation:

Given

Height of fall h = 0.50 m

Mass M = 70 kg

Period of collision t = 0.082 s

Solution

The final velocity of the person v is zero since the person will come to rest.

The initial velocity of the person can be calculated by using the "law of conservation of energy".

Initial Kinetic energy = Final potential energy

$\frac{1}{2} mu^2=mgh\\\\u = \sqrt{2gh} \\\\u = \sqrt{2 \times 9.81 \times 0.50} \\\\u = 3.13 m/s$

a) Impulse

J = final momentum - initial momentum

$J = mv -mu\\\\J = 0 - (70 \times 3.13)\\\\J = -219.2 kgm/s$

Magnitude of impulse

$|J| = 219.1 kgm/s$

b) Force

$F = \frac{J}{t} \\\\F = \frac{219.1}{0.082} \\\\F = 2672 N$

Two swift canaries fly toward each other, each moving at 15.0 m/s relative to the ground, each warbling a note of frequency 1750

lesya692 [45]

Answer:

Part a)

f = 1911.5 Hz

Part b)

$\lambda = 0.186 m$

Explanation:

Here the source and observer both are moving towards each other

so we know that the apparent frequency is given as

$f' = f_0 (\frac{v + v_o}{v - v_s})$

here we know that

$f_0 = 1750 Hz$

$v_o = 15 m/s$

$v_s = 15 m/s$

now we will have

$f' = (1750)(\frac{340 + 15}{340 - 15})$

$f' = 1911.5 Hz$

Part b)

Apparent wavelength is given by the formula

$\lambda = \frac{v_{relative}}{f_{app}}$

here we will have

$\lambda = \frac{340 + 15}{1911.5}$

$\lambda = 0.186 m$
