<span> they're both properties of water. both involve the "sticking" property of H2O .</span><span> cohesion is "sticking" together (water sticking to water) and adhesios is water</span><span>
</span> "sticking" to something else. They are both important to life processes.

 <span>In chemistry, adhesion refers to the tendency of unlike molecules to bond with one another, while cohesion refers to the attractive force between molecules of the same type. Surface tension, which is an essential property of water, illustrates the relationship between adhesion and cohesion.</span>

a 100 kg gymnast comes to a stop after tumbling. her feet do -5000J of net work to stop her. Use the work-kinetic energy theorem
VikaD [51]
W=ΔKE , W=-5000j
KEinitial=(1/2)mv² , KEfinal=0j 
ΔKE=-(1/2)mv²
-5000=-(1/2)(100kg)v²
v=10 m/s

marissa [1.9K]

Answer:

Please find the answer in the explanation

Explanation:

Given that A 1.0 g plastic bead, with a charge of -6.0 nC, is suspended between the two plates by the force of the electric field between them.

Since it is suspended, it must have been repelled by the bottom negative plate and trying to be attracted to the top plate.

We can therefore conclude that the upper plate, is positively charged

B.) The charge on the positive plate of parallel-plate capacitor is constructed of two horizontal 12.0-cm-diameter circular plates must be less than 6.0 nC
