A negatively-charged rod is brought close to (but does not touch) two neutral spheres that are in contact with each other but insulated from the ground. If the two spheres are then separated, what kind of charge will be on the spheres

One sphere obtains a positive charge, while the other obtains a negative charge.

Explanation:

When the negatively-charged rod is brought close to the two neutral spheres in contact with each other, the electrons in both spheres are repelled away from the rod and thus those electrons move into the second sphere farther away from the rod.

The first sphere is now short of electrons.

When the spheres are separated, the first sphere which is short of electrons now carries a net positive charge, while the other sphere which has excess electrons now carries a net negative charge.

Options:
a. a lower frequency and a shorter wavelength.
b. a higher frequency and a longer wavelength.
c. a lower frequency and a longer wavelength.
d. a higher frequency and a shorter wavelength

Answer:
d. a higher frequency and a shorter wavelength

Explanation:
The frequency of a wave is inversely proportional to its wavelength. That means that waves with a high frequency have a short wavelength, while waves with a low frequency have a longer wavelength. Light waves have very, very short wavelengths.
For example, Gamma rays have the highest energies, the shortest wavelengths, and the highest frequencies. Radio waves, on the other hand, have the lowest energies, longest wavelengths, and lowest frequencies of any type of EM radiation.
Options:
a. a lower frequency and a shorter wavelength.
b. a higher frequency and a longer wavelen

Answer: Option B and C are True.

Explanation:
The weight of the two blocks acts downwards.
Let the weight of the two blocks be W. Solving for T₁ and T₂:
w = T₁/cos 60° -----(1);
w = T₂/cos 30° ----(2);
equating (1) and (2)
T₁/cos 60° = T₂/cos 30°;
T₁ cos 30° = T₂ cos 60°;
T₂/T₁ = cos 30°/cos 60°;
T₂/T₁ =1.73.
Therefore, option a is false since T₂ > T₁.
Option B is true since T₁ cos 30° = T₂ cos 60°.
Option C is true because the T₃ is due to the weight of the two blocks while T₄ is only due to one block.
Option D is wrong because T₁ + T₂ > T₃ by simple summation of the two forces, except by vector addition.
Answer: Option B and C are True.

Explanation:  
The weight of the two blocks acts downwards.

Answer:

9.6 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

Time taken by the tomatoes to each the ground

using h = 1/2 g t^2 

t^2 = 2h/g = 2 x 50/ 9.8 = 10.2

t = 3.2 sec 

horizontal ditance = speed x time = 3 x 3.2 = 9.6 meters

First sum applied the Newton's second law motion: F = ma
Force = mass* acceleration
This motion define force as the product of mass times Acceleration (vs.Velocity). Since acceleration is the change in velocity divided by time,
force=(mass*velocity)/time
such that, (mass*velocity)/time=momentum/time
Therefore we get mass*velocity=momentum
Momentum=mass*velocity
Elephant mass=6300 kg; velocity=0.11 m/s
Momentum=6300*0.11
P=693 kg (m/s)
Dolphin mass=50 kg; velocity=10.4 m/s
Momentum=50*10.4
P=520 kg (m/s)
The elephant has more momentum(P) because it is large.

The change in temperature is 9.52°CExplanation:Since, the heat supplied by the electric kettle is totally used to increase the temperature of the water.Thus, from the law of conservation of energy can be stated as:Heat Supplied by Electric Kettle = Heat Absorbed by WaterHeat Supplied by Electric Kettle = m C ΔTwhere,Heat Supplied by Electric Kettle = 20,000 JMass of water = m = 0.5 kgSpecific Heat Capacity of Water = C = 4200 J/kg.°CChange in Temperature of Water = ΔTTherefore,20,000 J = (0.5 kg)(4200 J/kg.°C) ΔTΔT = 20,000 J/(2100 J/°C)ΔT = 9.52°C

Weight of barbell (m) = 100 kg
Uplifted to height (h) = 2m
Time taken= 1.5 s
Work done by Jordan = potential energy stored in barbell = mgh
= 100×2×9.8
= 1960J
Power = energy/time
= 1960/1.5

Weight of jasmine (m) = 400 N
Height climbed on wall (h) = 5m
Total time taken in climbing = 5 sec
Work done in climbing the wall = rise in potential energy = mgh
= 400×9.8×51
= 19600J
Power generated by Jasmine = potential energy / time
= 19600/5
= 3920Watts
