The choices can be found elsewhere and as follows:

a. they are so small that they stay close to the ground due to the attractive properties of charged soil particles.

b. they are easily carried by the wind.

c. they easily dissolve in liquid droplets.

d. it is easier for then to roll along the small crevices in the ground.

I think the correct answer from the choices listed above is option B. Only the smallest particles of soil can be displaced by suspension because they are so small that they are easily carried by the wind. Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day. Feel free to ask more questions.

A wall in a house contains a single window. The window consists of a single pane of glass whose area is 0.15 m2 and whose thickn

KengaRu [80]

Answer:

88 %

Explanation:

The rate of heat loss by a conducting material of thermal conductivity K, cross-sectional area,A and thickness d with a temperature gradient ΔT is given by

P = KAΔT/d

The total heat lost by the styrofoam wall is P₁ = K₁A₁ΔT₁/d₁ where K₁ =thermal conductivity of styrofoam wall 0.033 W/m-K, A₁ = area of styrofoam wall = 17 m², ΔT₁ = temperature gradient between inside and outside of the wall and d₁ = thickness of styrofoam wall = 0.20 m

The total heat lost by the glass window is P₂ = K₂A₂ΔT₂/d₂ where K₂ =thermal conductivity of glass window pane wall 0.96 W/m-K, A₂ = area of glass window pane = 0.15 m², ΔT₂ = temperature gradient between inside and outside of the window and d₂ = thickness of glass window pane = 7 mm = 0.007 m

The total heat lost is P = P₁ + P₂ = K₁A₁ΔT₁/d₁ + K₂A₂ΔT₂/d₂

Now, since the temperatures of both inside and outside of both window and wall are the same, ΔT₁ = ΔT₂ = ΔT

So, P = K₁A₁ΔT/d₁ + K₂A₂ΔT/d₂

Since P₂ = K₂A₂ΔT₂/d₂ = K₂A₂ΔT/d₂is the heat lost by the window, the fraction of the heat lost by the window from the total heat lost is

P₂/P = K₂A₂ΔT/d₂ ÷ (K₁A₁ΔT/d₁ + K₂A₂ΔT/d₂)

= 1/(K₁A₁ΔT/d₁÷K₂A₂ΔT/d₂ + 1)

= 1/(K₁A₁d₂÷K₂A₂d₁ + 1)

= 1/[(0.033 W/m-K × 17 m² × 0.007 m ÷ 0.96 W/m-K × 0.15 m² × 0.20 m) + 1]

= 1/(0.003927/0.0288 + 1)

= 1/(0.1364 + 1)

= 1/1.1364

= 0.88.

The percentage is thus P₂/P × 100 % = 0.88 × 100 % = 88 %

The percentage of heat lost by window of the total heat is 88 %

A particle with charge 7.76×10^(−8)C is moving in a region where there is a uniform 0.700 T magnetic field in the +x-direction.

kodGreya [7K]

Answer:

The z-component of the force is $\= F_z = 0.00141 \ N$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The charge on the particle is $q = 7.76 *0^{-8} \ C$

The magnitude of the magnetic field is $B = 0.700\r i \ T$

The velocity of the particle toward the x-direction is $v_x = -1.68*10^{4}\r i \ m/s$

The velocity of the particle toward the y-direction is

$v_y = -2.61*10^{4}\ \r j \ m/s$

The velocity of the particle toward the z-direction is

$v_y = -5.85*10^{4}\ \r k \ m/s$

Generally the force on this particle is mathematically represented as

$\= F = q (\= v X \= B )$

So we have

$\= F = q ( v_x \r i + v_y \r j + v_z \r k ) \ \ X \ ( \= B i)$

$\= F = q (v_y B(-\r k) + v_z B\r j)$

substituting values

$\= F = (7.7 *10^{-8})([ (-2.61*10^{4}) (0.700)](-\r z) + [(5.58*10^{4}) (0.700)]\r y)$

$\= F= 0.00303\ \r j +0.00141\ \r k$

So the z-component of the force is $\= F_z = 0.00141 \ N$

A car is traveling at a speed of 54 km/h. Breaks are applied so as to produce a uniform acceleration of -0.5 m/s2. Find how far

Lena [83]

Explanation:

u=54 km/h

54*5/18=15 m/s

v=0m/s

t=?

acceleration=-0.5m/s^2

we know that a=v-u/t

so,

t=v-u/a

t=15-0/0.5

=15/0.5

=30

therefore, the time is 30 second
