The argument that BEST supports what will happen when an object is placed between the two charged plates is:
An object with a positive charge will move toward the negative plate.
This is because opposite charges attract each other; therefore, a positively charged object will experience a force pulling it toward the negatively charged plate.
The statement that best supports the claim that the planets orbit the Sun because of gravitational force is:
The Sun has a stronger gravitational field because it has a larger mass.
This is because the gravitational attraction between two objects is directly proportional to their masses; thus, the Sun, being much more massive than the planets, exerts a strong gravitational force that keeps the planets in orbit.
To determine which paper clip has the least chance of moving toward the magnet, we would generally consider the distance from the magnet. The further away a paper clip is from the magnet, the weaker the magnetic force acting on it, and therefore the lower the chance of it moving toward the magnet.
Since I don't have access to the student's picture, I can't see the specific positions of the paper clips (W, X, Y, and Z). However, if you apply this principle and can identify which paper clip is furthest from the magnet in the diagram, that paper clip would have the least chance of moving toward the magnet.
If you provide the relative distances or positions of the paper clips, I can give you a more precise answer.
To determine the weight of the space probes on the two planets, we need to consider that weight is the force of gravity acting on an object and is given by the equation:
\[ \text{Weight} = \text{mass} \times \text{gravity} \]
Since the two planets have identical volumes but different masses, we can infer that the gravitational pull (acceleration due to gravity) on each planet will vary based on their mass.
Given that the mass of planet X is two times greater than the mass of planet Y, this makes planet X denser, and it will exert a stronger gravitational force (causing a larger gravitational acceleration) than planet Y.
Thus, the statement that accurately reflects the situation is:
The weight of the space probe on planet X will be greater than the weight of the space probe on planet Y.
This is because the gravitational pull on planet X is stronger due to its greater mass, resulting in a higher weight for the space probe on that planet.
The statement that best describes the gravitational force between objects is:
Objects exert a gravitational force on every other object.
This is true because gravitational force is a universal force that acts between any two masses, regardless of their size. Even small objects exert gravitational forces on each other, although these forces are typically very weak compared to those from larger masses.
When the glass rod is rubbed with silk, it gains a positive charge. A positively charged object will attract negatively charged objects and repel positively charged objects.
In the scenario described:
Given this information, the correct option is:
Balloon 2 and Plastic sheet 1.
Both Balloon 2 (negatively charged) and Plastic sheet 1 (negatively charged) will be attracted to the positively charged glass rod.
