Two glass marbles (1 and 2), each supported by a nylon thread, are rubbed against a piece of silk and then are placed near a third glass marble (3), also supported by a similar thread. assuming that marble 3 has not been in contact with the piece of fabric, which of the following statements best describes the situation when the three marbles are brought together?

to keep things simple in this tutorial, we will ignore the effects of polarization and just focus on the overall charge of each object.

a.) marbles 1 and 2 attract each other, but no interaction occurs with marble 3.
b.) both marbles 1 and 2 attract marble 3.
c.) the three marbles will repel each other.
d.) marbles 1 and 2 repel each other, but no interaction occurs with marble 3.

d.) Marbles 1 and 2 repel each other, but no interaction occurs with marble

Explanation:

Rubbing the glass against the silk charges the glass positively.

Assuming polarization is ignored,

●Glass won't conduct electrical charge. Therefore, acting as a insulator.

●neutral objects won't distribute it's charge when affected by charge objects in proximity. Therefore, over the marble surface, the charge remain spherically symmetrical (undisturbed)

Marble 1 is positive

Marble 2 is positive

Since marble 1 and 2 are positive, repulsion will occur.

marble 3 is neutral (still assuming polarization is ignored), therefore, no interaction with marble 1 and 2

D is the answer.

cant without the picture! ?

1.195000

explanation:

total mass=0.0117+0.0137+0.0881+0.0111

total mass= 0.01172kg

total velocity = 0.283-0.743+0.871-0.799+0.155+0.637+0.301=0.102

momentum=mv=0.1172*0.102=1.195000//
