static electricity usually develops when objects are rubbed against each other. the rubbing process causes some electrons from one of the objects to relocate to the other object. the object that loses electrons then has more protons than electrons and thus develops an overall positive charge. the object that gains electrons then has more electrons than protons and thus develops an overall negative charge. here a balloon is rubbed against a person’s hair. electrons move from the hair to the balloon. the surface of the balloon now has more electrons than protons, so it develops a negative charge. the surface of the hair now has more protons than electrons, so it develops a positive charge. flyaway hair is caused by the fact that each individual strand of hair now has a positive charge. because like charges repel, each piece of hair repels every other piece of hair, making them stand out as far away from each other as possible.

what would be good summary of the lab from the information above?

static electricity is based off of gravity.

static electricity is the movement of electrons. electrons will move from the hair to the balloon.

static electricity can be created in water.

balloons are full of air.

The lights used by mark watley (played by matt damon) during the film the martian seem to be metal halide lamps. metal halide lamps are filled with vaporized mercury and metal-halogen compounds. when an electric current is passed through the lamp, the tube begins to glow a bright white/blue color. if you were to pass this light through a prism to separate the individual light frequencies, you would see a rainbow just as you would if using natural sunlight because of the complexity of the metal halide gas and the vast amount of possible electron transitions. (the study of light in this way is known as spectroscopy and allows astronomers to know exactly what atoms compose distant stars, simply by looking at the light they emit. the spectral lines an atom produces uniquely identifies that atom just like a fingerprint uniquely identifies a person. the momentum equation and energy equation that we have used above can be combined to give the following equation: c = e p where again p is the phonon momentum, e is the photon energy and c is the speed of light. when you divide the photon energy found in #6 by the photon momentum found in #4, do you get the speed of light? (if not, check your work for questions #4 through #6). yes no

On a hot saturday morning while people are working inside, the air conditioner keeps the temperature inside the building at 22degreesc. at noon the air conditioner is turned off, and the people go home. the temperature outside is a constant 33degreesc for the rest of the afternoon. if the time constant for the building is 4 hr, what will be the temperature inside the building at 4 : 00 font size decreased by 2 upper p . font size decreased by 2 upper m .? at 6 : 00 font size decreased by 2 upper p . font size decreased by 2 upper m .? when will the temperature inside the building reach 24degreesc? 324281
