A positively charged rod is brought near...

A positively charged rod is brought near to a non-conducting object. The rod is attracted to the object. From this observation. We can't predict whether the object is charged or uncharged. Some additional experments have been performed to identify whether the object is charged or uncharged, these experiments with their observations and conclusions drawn are given. Select the option in which conclusion drawn is correct.

A

A negatively charged rod is brought near to object and the two attract, this shows that the object is neutral.

B

A negatively charged rod is brought near to object and two repel, this shows that the object is negatively charged.

C

A neutral rod is brought near to object and two attract, this shows that the object is negatively charged.

D

All of the above

An electroscope is given a positive charge, causing its foil leaves to separate. When an object is brought near the top plate of the electroscope, the fiols separated even further. We conclude.

A leaf electroscope is a simple apparatus to detect any charge on a body. It consist of two metal leaves OA and OB, free to rotate about O. Initially both are very slighty separted. When a charged object is touched to the metal knob at the top of the conduction re, charge flows from knob to the top of the conduction rod, charge flows from knob to the leaves through the conducting rod, charge flows from knob to the leaves through the conduction rod. As the leaves are now charged similarly, they start repelling each other and tet separted (deflected by certain angle). The angle of deflection in static equilibrium is an indicator of the amount of charge on the charged boy. If we perform these steps one by one. In which case, the leaves will converge (come closer), as compared to the previous state?

In one-dimensional kinematics, a particle can move strictly along a straight line. The description of motion of the particle can be done in two ways: (i) mathematical equation and (ii) graphs. The choice of a particular method for solving a problem often depends upon the type and nature of problem, for example the graphical method provides more physical insight One dimensional motion is categorised into 1. motion with constant velocity 2. motion with constant acceleration, and 3. accelerated and de-accelerated motion If you represent inotion (1) by the graph on position time and velocity-time coordinates, the graphs may look like as given below. One very interesting case comes up, when a particle is thrown at a certain angle from the horizontal, the particle travels in the medium along a curved path, known as parabola. - The trajectory of the parabola written in the mathematical equation is given by y=xtantheta-(1)/(2)(gx^(2))/((v_0costheta))^(2) Ineglect resistance of medium and its motion where Vs and are the initial velocity of the projectile and the projection angle at the point of projection measured with the + x axis. There are some applications which we have seen in our life, like in many game shows, the theory of the projectile is always used An air gun is aimed at an elevated target, which is released in a free fall by some mechanism as the bullet leaves the nozzle. Irrespective of falling speed of object, the bullet will always hit the target. QOut of the two methods, graphical method and mathematical equation, which gives you the better precision

Observe the picture given below. Which one would be a negatively charged object and which one would be a positively charged object?

The existence of negatively charged particle in an atom was shown by J.J. Thomson as a result of the studies of the passage of electricity through gases at extremely low pressure known as discharge tube experiments. When a high voltage of the order of 10,000 volts or more was impressed across the electrodes, some sort of invisible rays moved from the negative electrode to the positive electrode these rays are called as cathode rays. Cathode rays travel in straight path in absence of electrical and magnetic field . Cathode rays consist of material part and charged particles? Cathode rays produce X-rays and light is emitted when they strike on ZnS screen. Cathode rays penetrate through thin sheets of aluminium and other metals . They affect the photogenic plate and passes heating effect when they strike on metal foil. The raito of charge to mass i.e charge/mass is same for all the cathode rays irrespective of the gas used in the tube. The existence of positively charged particle in an atom was shown be E. Goldstein. He repeated the same discharge tube experiments by using a perforated cathode. It was observed that when a high potential difference was applied between the electrodes, not only cathode rays were produced but also a new type of rays were produced simultaneoulsy from anode moving towards cathode and passes through the holes or canal of the cathode. These termed as canal rays or anode rays. These rays travel in straight lines and consists of positively charged particles. These rays have kinetic energy and produces heating effect also. The e/m ratio of these rays is smaller than that of electrons. Unlike cathode rays, their e/m value is dependent upon the nature of the gas taken in the tube. These rays produced flashes of light on ZnS screen and can pass throughs thin metal foils. They can produce physical and chemical changes and are capable to produce ionisation in gases. Select the incorrect statement.
