When the surface of the comb rubs on your hair, the comb is electrically charged. When the comb comes close to the paper, the charge on the comb causes charge separation on the paper bits. Since paper is neutral, positive and negative charges are equivalent. The charge on the comb charges the area of the bit of paper nearest the comb to the opposite. Thus, the bits of paper become attracted to the comb.

Which vector has a y-component with a length of 1?
viva [34]
In this 2-dimensional graph, the x-component of each vector is the horizontal distance from the origin, while the y-component of each vector is the vertical distance from the origin. It can be seen that the c vector is 1 vertical unit away from the origin, which means that it has a y-component of 1.

Sea level is currently rising at 3.2 mm/yr, and scientists predict that global warming could cause a rise in sea level of 7 m if
Dovator [93]

Answer:

2188 years

Explanation:

given,                                              

see level rising at the rate = 3.2 mm/yr

height of the sea level to rise = 7 m        

time it will take rise 7 m = ?              

we know,                                      

           1 m = 1000 mm                          

           1 mm = 0.001 m                          

rate of increase of rate = 0.0032 m/year                  

time taken to rise = \dfrac{7}{0.0032}\ years

                             = 2187.5 years                                    

Now, time taken by the sea level to rise 7 m is equal to 2188 years.

D=? V=100mL M=1.5kg=___g
Nana76 [90]
If you go to a website known as 'Wolfram' and type in the question they should be able to answer it.  It's basically a very smart calculator.  I'd add a link but I don't want to seem like I'm advertising, and it's against Brainly rules.

Lizette works in her school’s vegetable garden. Every Tuesday, she pulls weeds for 15 minutes. Weeding seems like a never-ending
Gnoma [55]

Answer:

Constant or Controlled variables: Same concentration of vinegar solution, same quantity of vinegar, same type of weed etc

Explanation:

In an experiment, certain variables are kept unchanged or constant for both the experimental group and control group in order not to influence the outcome of the experiment. These variables are called CONTROLLED VARIABLES or CONSTANTS.

In the case of this experiment where Lizette is testing the effect of vinegar on weed, the variable that should be kept the same (controlled variables) for the control group of weeds and the sprayed weeds include Same concentration of vinegar solution, Same quantity of vinegar, same type of weed.
