Explain the uses of Electrophorus ​

Answer:

Explanation:

Comment

Interesting creature.

These creatures are the only survivors from an era long past, where nothing else has survived. They are eels capable of discharging a large electrical current. A pack of them (they can hunt in groups) can kill just about anything.

Tribes use and tame them to guard the tribe's tame Electrophorus. They are bread and maintained in schools. While the charge is huge, once discharged, these creatures take a very long time to recharge, so they are not entirely invincible.

Explain how earths lithosphere and asthenosphere work together
Aleonysh [2.5K]

Answer:

The lithosphere can affect the atmosphere when tectonic plates move and cause an eruption, where magma below spews up as lava above.

Explanation:

The lithosphere is broken into giant plates that fit around the globe like puzzle pieces. These puzzle pieces move a little bit each year as they slide on top of a somewhat fluid part of the mantle called the asthenosphere.

A machinist turns the power on to a grinding wheel, which is at rest at time t = 0.00 s. The wheel accelerates uniformly for 10
IRINA_888 [86]

Complete Question:

A machinist turns the power on to a grinding wheel, which is at rest at time t = 0.00 s. The wheel accelerates uniformly for 10 s and reaches the operating angular velocity of 25 rad/s. The wheel is run at that angular velocity for 37 s and then power is shut off. The wheel decelerates uniformly at 1.5 rads/s2 until the wheel stops. In this situation, the time interval of angular deceleration (slowing down) is closest to

Answer:

t= 16.7 sec.

Explanation:

As we are told that the wheel is accelerating uniformly, we can apply the definition of angular acceleration to its value:

γ = (ωf -ω₀) / t

If the wheel was at rest at t-= 0.00 s, the angular acceleration is given by the following equation:

γ = ωf / t = 25 rad/sec / 10 sec = 2.5 rad/sec².

When the power is shut off, as the deceleration is uniform, we can apply the same equation as above, with ωf = 0, and ω₀ = 25 rad/sec, and γ = -1.5 rad/sec, as follows:

γ= (ωf-ω₀) /Δt⇒Δt = (0-25 rad/sec) / (-1.5 rad/sec²) = 16.7 sec

Consider Compton Scattering with visible light.A photon with wavelength 500nm scatters backward(theta=180degree) from a free ele
JulijaS [17]

Answer: 4.86(10)^{-12}m

Explanation:

The Compton Shift \Delta \lambda in wavelength when photons are scattered is given by the following equation:

\Delta \lambda=\lambda' - \lambda_{o}=\lambda_{c}(1-cos\theta) (1)  

Where:  

\lambda'=500 nm=500(10)^{-9} m is the wavelength of the scattered photon

\lambda_{o}  is the wavelength of the incident photon

\lambda_{c}=2.43(10)^{-12} m is a constant whose value is given by \frac{h}{m_{e}.c}, being h=4.136(10)^{-15}eV.s the Planck constant, m_{e} the mass of the electron and c=3(10)^{8}m/s the speed of light in vacuum.  

\theta=180\° the angle between incident phhoton and the scatered photon.  

\Delta \lambda=2.43(10)^{-12} m (1-cos(180\°)) (2)

\Delta \lambda=4.86(10)^{-12}m (3)  This is the shift in wavelength

A box rests on a horizontal, frictionless surface. a girl pushes on the box with a force of 17 n to the right and a boy pushes o
Komok [63]
Refer to the diagram shown below.

The net force acting on the box is 17 - 13 = 4 N to the right.
The box moves on a friction surface by 3.5 m to the right.

By definition,
Work = Force x Distance.

(a) The work done by the girl is
     W₁ = (17 N)*(3.5 m) = 59.5 J

(b) The work done by the boy is
     W₂ = (13 N)*(-3.5 m) = - 45.5 J

(c) The work done by the net force  is
    W₃ = (4 N)*(3.5 m) = 14 J

Note that W₃ = W₁ + W₂

Answers:
(a) 59.5 J
(b) - 45.5 J
(c) 14 J
