3 0

Answer:

1.95 kg

Explanation:

Momentum is conserved.

m₁ u₁ + m₂ u₂ = m₁ v₁ + m₂ v₂

0 = (74.9) (-0.215) + m (8.25)

m = 1.95

Match these items. 1. Ca 6 proton 2. H 2O 3 fission 3. nuclear decay 7 element 4. nuclear synthesis 8 electron 5. η atomic numbe
Gnesinka [82]

1. Ca → Element

2. Proton → positive

3. H2O → compound

4. Fission → nuclear decay

5. Fusion → Nuclear synthesis

6. η → Neutron

7. e → electron

8. Atomic number → no of protons in nucleus.

Explanation

1. Ca (Calcium):

Calcium is an element with the atomic number of 20. It is an alkaline earth metal. The 99% of calcium is found in our bodies, in bones, teeth.

2. Proton:

Proton is a subatomic particle and it holds the positive charge. Proton is present in the nucleus of the atom.

3. H2O (water):

Water is a chemical compound and it's chemical formula is H2O. It's called compound as it contains 2 hydrogen and 1 oxygen atoms bonded together through the covalent bond.

4. Fission:

Fission is a process in which large massive unstable nucleus splits into the smaller, less heavier and stable nuclei. The energy is re;eased in the form of radiations during this process. It's called as the radioactive decay.

5. Fusion:

Fusion is opposite of the fission reaction. As in this case the two nuclei combines to form a single large nucleus. That's why it is a nuclear synthesis process.

6. η neutron:

Neutron is a subatomic particle and it is a neutral particle which is located inside the nucleus. n is a symbol used for the neutron.

7. e Electron:

The symbol for electron is e. It's a subatomic particle with negative charge. It is found in the orbits around the nucleus.

8.  Atomic Number:

Atomic number is defined as the number of protons in the nucleus of an atom. IT is represented by Z.

A long, straight, horizontal wire carries a left-to-right current of 40 A. If the wire is placed in a uniform magnetic field of
Drupady [299]

Answer:

4.5\times 10^{-5} T

Explanation:

We are given that

Current in wire=40 A

Magnetic field=B_1=3.5\times 10^{-5} T( vertically downward)

We have to find the resultant magnitude of the magnetic field 29 cm above the wire and 29 cm below the wire.

According to Bio-Savart law, the magnetic field exerted by the wire at distance R is given by

B_{wire}=B_2=\frac{\mu_0I}{2\pi R}

We have R=29 cm=\frac{29}{100}=0.29 m

1 m=100 cm

Substitute the values in the given formula

B_2=\frac{4\pi\times 10^{-7}\times 40}{2\times \pi\times 0.29}=\frac{2\times 40\times 10^{-7}}{0.29}=2.76\times 10^{-5} T

The resultant magnetic field is given by

B=\sqrt{B^2_1+B^2_2}

Substitute the values then we get

B=\sqrt{(3.5\times 10^{-5})^2+(2.76\times 10^{-5})^2}

B=4.5\times 10^{-5} T

The resultant magnitude of magnetic field is same above and below the wire as it is at same distance.

The resultant magnitude of the magnetic field 29 cm below the wire=4.5\times 10^{-5} T

Hence, the resultant magnitude of the magnetic field 29 cm above  the wire=4.5\times 10^{-5} T
