Consider four objects: a, b, c, and d. if a is negatively charged and b and c attract a but repel each other, what is the charge on b and c?

a. both b and c are positively charged.

b. both b and c are negatively charged.

c. b is positively charged and c is negatively charged.

d. b is negatively charged and c is positively charged.

e. both b and c have no charge.

The correct answer is "Both B and C are positively charged".

Explanation:

Same charges repel each other. There is an electrostatic force of repulsion between the same charges.

Unlike charges attract each other. There is an electrostatic force of attraction between the opposite charges.

In the given problem, consider four objects: A, B, C, and D. If A is negatively charged and B and C attract A but repel each other.

In the given question, B and C repel each other. It means that both B and C have same charge. A is negatively charged. Then, B and C have positive charge. As B and C attract A. Both B and C are positively charged.

Therefore, the option (B) is correct.

answer: (431,2)

step-by-step explanation:

answer: at 24 february, 2014 the population gets twice of its initial population.

explanation:

since we have given that

the population for alpha city, t years after january 1, 2004 is given as

first we find out the initial population, i.e. t=0,

so, our quadratic equation becomes,

according to question, we have said that if the population has twice its initial population, then it becomes

so, time taken to reach this above mentioned population is given by

now, we know that time can't be negative so, we take t=9.149 years.

hence, at 24 february, 2014 the population gets twice of its initial population.
