Our eyes are typically 6 cm apart. Suppose you are somewhat unique, and yours are 9.50 cm apart. You see an object jump from sid

Serhud [2]

Answer: 12.67 cm, 8 cm

Explanation:

Given

Normal distance of separation of eyes, d(n) = 6 cm

Distance of separation is your eyes, d(y) = 9.5 cm

Angle created during the jump, θ = 0.75°

To solve this, we use the formula,

θ = d/r, where

θ = angle created during the jump

d = separation between the eyes

r = distance from the object

θ = d/r

0.75 = 9.5 / r

r = 9.5 / 0.75

r = 12.67 cm

θ = d/r

0.75 = 6 / r

r = 6 / 0.75

r = 8 cm

Thus, the object is 12.67 cm far away in your own "unique" eyes, and just 8 cm further away to the normal person eye

What is the electric potential, i.e. the voltage, 0.30 m from a point charge of 6.4 x 10-C?

Gwar [14]

Answer:

V = 192 kV

Explanation:

Given that,

Charge, $q=6.4\times 10^{-6}\ C$

Distance, r = 0.3 m

We need to find the electric potential at a distance of 0.3 m from a point charge. The formula for electric potential is given by :

$V=\dfrac{kq}{r}\\\\V=\dfrac{9\times 10^9\times 6.4\times 10^{-6}}{0.3}\\\\V=192000\ V\\\\V=192\ kV$

So, the required electric potential is 192 kV.

An iron atom (Fe) has 26 protons in it. If the atom has 20 electrons in it, explain what type of charge it has and how you can t

gogolik [260]

Answer:

The iron atom has a positive charge, making it a cation.

Explanation:

The atom has a nucleus, where the protons and neutrons, which are the subatomic particles with the highest mass, are located. Practically all the mass of the atom is concentrated in the nucleus.Protons have a positive electrical charge, while neutrons have no charge.

Electrons move around the nucleus with other negatively charged particles.

An iron atom (Fe) has 26 protons and 20 electrons in it. That is, there are 6 more protons than electrons. As mentioned, protons are positively charged. So the iron atom has a positive charge, making it a cation.
