Answer:

a) 4

b) 2

c) 8

Explanation:

In a cubic lattice, each atom of the vertex is shared among other 8 unit cells, so the atoms on the vertex contribute to 1/8 to a given unit cell.

a) Ina face-centered cubic we have 8 atoms on the vertex and one in each face, which is shared with another unit cell, so it contribute to 1/2

Therefore, the total atoms are:

8*(1/8) + 6*(1/2) = 4

b) In the body centered cubic structure, the centered atom is not shared with another cell, therefore it contribute to 1 to the given cell:

The number of atoms per unit cel is:

8*(1/8) + 1 = 2

c) The diamond lattice is similar to the face-centered cubic lattice but it contains two identical atoms per lattice point.

Therefore it must contain twice atoms than the face-centered cubic lattice:

that is, it has 8 atoms per unit cell

Answer:

<h2>Force due to biceps is given as</h2><h2>F = 1991.05 N</h2>

Explanation:

For balancing the force we know that

Torque due to weight hold on his hand = torque due to force applied by biceps

So here we will have

mg \times L = F \times d

so we have

18.14 \times 9.8 \times 0.56 = F \times (0.05)

F = 1991.05 N

A model train engine was moving at a constant speed on a straight horizontal track. As the engine moved​ along, a marble was fir
bagirrra123 [75]

Answer:

The marble was moving in a projectile and the speed of the engine was 2.716 m/s

Explanation:

The vertical component of the marble's flight path relative to the train

is given by the equation y(t) = v*t - (4.9)*t^2,

where, v is the initial upward velocity of the marble relative to the train.  

So with y(1) = v - 4.9 = 0 we have  

v = 4.9 m/s.

The marble will reach maximum height after 0.5 seconds, at which the

height will be y(0.5) = (4.9)*(0.5) - (4.9)*(0.5)^2 = (4.9)*(0.25) = 1.225 m.

Now,  the marble has a vertical velocity component of 4.9 m/s and a horizontal velocity component

of V m/s such that tan(61) = 4.9 / V

V = 4.9 / tan(61) = 2.716 m/s

This horizontal velocity component of the marble is the same as the

speed of the train i.e. 2.716 m/s.
