1. When a glass rod is rubbed with silk it (the rod) becomes positively charged. This happens because
1. Electrons are created on the rod.
2. Electrons are transferred from the silk to the rod.
3. Protons are transferred from the silk to the rod.
4. Protons are transferred from the rod to the silk.
5. Electrons are transferred from the rod to the silk.
2. When rubber rod is rubbed with a piece of fur it (the rod) becomes negatively charged. What happens to the fur?
1. It remains neutral.
2. It becomes positively charged.
3. It becomes negatively charged, too.
4. It depends on the type of fur.
3. When two objects are rubbed together, which particle is most probable to be transferred?
1. Proton
2. Neutron
3. Nucleus
4. Electron

Order-of-magnitude estimate of the number of leaves on tree
: While admiring a tree, you notice that the leaves form a more or less continuous spherical shell, with relatively few leaves growing in the shell interior. You estimate that the diameter of this shell is about 30 m. Every leaf is about 5 in. long and..

Calculate the derivative of the speed of sound in air
: Calculate the derivative of the speed of sound in air by respect to the absolute temperature, and show that the differentials dv and dT obey dv/v = 1/2 dT/T. Use this result to estimate the percentage change in the speed of sound when the temperature..

Magnitude of the electric field causing the acceleration
: A 2 C charge and a 8 C charge repel each other with 10 N of force. How much will a 4 C charge and a 4 C charge repel each other when placed the same distance apart? Electrons are accelerated to reach a kinetic energy of 250 eV (= 4.0 x 10-17 J). If t..
