Explanation:

Most objects tend to contains nearly equal numbers of negative and positive charges as it is most stable state. In this case, the object does not want to lose or gain electrons in order to get stable.

The repulsive or attractive electrical forces tend to cancel each other.

There are an equal number of positive and negative charges which make the object electrically neutral.

If the object has more negative charge than the positive charge then it makes the object most unstable or vice versa.

<span>Most objects tend to contain the same numbers of positive and negative charge because this is the most stable situation. In fact, if an object has an excess of positive charge, it tends to attract an equal number of negative charges to balance this effect and restore neutrality: the attracted negative charges combine with the excess of positive charges, leaving the object electrically neutral.</span>

Suppose you are designing an amplifier and loudspeaker system to use at a rock concert. You want to make it as loud as possible.

OverLord2011 [107]

Answer is given below

Explanation:

Audio power amplifiers are found in all types of sound systems, including sound reinforcement, public address and home audio systems, as well as musical instrument amplifiers such as guitar amplifiers.
This is the last electronic step in the general audio playback series before sending the signal to the loudspeaker. So when we want maximum volume or loud sound, we have to get it with maximum output and high input and low output impedance

A runner runs 300 m at an average speed of 3.0 m/s. She then runs another 300m at an average

Kaylis [27]

Answer:

B. 4 m/s

Explanation:

v=d/t

Running for 300 m at 3 m/s takes 100 seconds and running at 300 m at 6 m/s takes 50 seconds. 100 s + 50 s = 150 s (total time). Total distance is 600 m, so 600 m/ 150 s = 4 m/s.

A 5.00 kg crate is on a 21.0 degree hill. Using X-Y axes tilted down the plane, what is the y-component of the normal force?

Rama09 [41]

Answer:

The y-component of the normal force is 45.74 N.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of the crate, m = 5 kg

Angle with hill, $\theta=21^{\circ}$

We need to find the y component of the normal force. We know that the y component of the normal force is given by :

$F_y=F\ \cos\theta\\\\F_y=mg\ \cos\theta\\\\F_y=5\times 9.8\ \cos(21)\\\\F_y=45.74\ N$

So, the y-component of the normal force is 45.74 N. Hence, this is the required solution.

Solve A and B using energy considerations.

Alisiya [41]

<span>Use the kinematic equation vf^2 = vi^2 + 2ad where;
vf = ?
vi = 0 m/s
a = 9.8 m/s^2
d1 = 10 m
d2 = 25 m

final velocity at the ground (d1): vf = sqrt(2)(9.8)(10) = 14 m/s
final velocity to the bottom of the cliff (d2): vf = sqrt(2)(9.8)(25) = 22.14 m/s

The difference in heights of the liquid in the two sides of the manometer is 43.4 cm when the atmospheric pressure is 755 mm hg.

Schach [20]

The atmospheric P is greater than the P in the flask, since the Hg level is lacking down lower on the side open to the atmosphere.

43.4 cm x (10 mm / 1 cm) = 435 mm

the density of Hg is 13.6 / 0.791 = 17.2 times better than the liquid in the manometer. This means that 1 mmHg = 17.2 mm of manometer liquid.

435 mm manometer liquid x (1 mm Hg / 17.2 mm manometer liquid) = 25.3 mm Hg

The pressure in the flask is 755 - 25.3 = 729.7 mmHg.

729.7 mmHg x (1 atm / 760 mmHg ) = 0.960 atm.
