<h2><u>Answer</u></h2>

To know where it starts we look where the zero mark of the vernier scale starts. The make just before reaching where the zero mark is marks the value to use.

<h2><u>Explanation</u></h2>

A vernier caliper is an instrument that is used to measure the diameter of small circular objects such as diameter of a wires, thickness of an iron sheet.

The objects to be measured is place between the jaws of the calipers.

The vernier scale has two scales, the vernier scale and the main scale which is the very top scale. <em>To know where it starts we look where the zero mark of the vernier scale starts. The make just before reaching where the zero mark is marks the value to use. </em>

Um objeto de 4cm de altura está a 30cm de um espelho côncavo, cujo raio de curvatura tem valor absoluto de 20cm.

Shkiper50 [21]

a) The distance of the image from the mirror is 15 cm

b) The size of the image is -2 cm (inverted)

Explanation:

We can solve this first part of the problem by applying the mirror equation:

$\frac{1}{f}=\frac{1}{p}+\frac{1}{q}$

where

f is the focal length

p is the distance of the object from the mirror

q is the distance of the image from the mirror

For a mirror, the focal length is half the radius of curvature, R:

$f=\frac{R}{2}$

For this mirror, R = 20 cm, so its focal length is

$f=\frac{20}{2}=+10 cm$ (positive for a concave mirror)

Here we also know:

p = 30 cm is the distance of the object from the mirror

So, by applying the equation, we can find q:

$\frac{1}{q}=\frac{1}{f}-\frac{1}{p}=\frac{1}{10}-\frac{1}{30}=\frac{1}{15} \rightarrow q = 15 cm$

We can solve this part by using the magnification equation:

$M=-\frac{y'}{y}=\frac{q}{p}$

where

y' is the size of the image

y is the size of the object

q is the distance of the image from the mirror

p is the distance of the object from the mirror

Here we have:

q = 15 cm

p = 30 cm

y = 4 cm

Solving for y', we find the size of the image:

$y'=-y\frac{q}{p}=-(4)\frac{15}{30}=-2 cm$

and the negative sign means that the image is inverted.

Nuclearissionoccursthroughmanydifferent pathways. For the ission of U-235 induced by a neutron, write a nuclear equation to form

ruslelena [56]

Answer: a) $^{235}_{92}\textrm{U}+^{1}_{0}\textrm{n} \rightarrow ^{87}_{35}\textrm {Br}+ ^{146}_{57}\La + 3^{1}_{0}n$

b) $^{235}_{92}\textrm{U}+^1_0\textrm{n}\rightarrow ^{140}_{56}\textrm{Ba}+^{94}_{36}\textrm{Kr}+2^1_0\textrm{n}$

Explanation:

A nuclear fission reaction is defined as the reaction in which a heavy nucleus splits into small nuclei along with release of energy.

a) The given reaction is $^{235}_{92}\textrm{U}+^{1}_{0}\textrm{n} \rightarrow ^{87}_{35}\textrm {Br}+ ^{146}_{57}\La + x^{1}_{0}n$

Now, as the mass on both reactant and product side must be equal:

$235+1=87+146+x$

$x=3$

Thus three neutrons are produced and nuclear equation will be: $^{235}_{92}\textrm{U}+^{1}_{0}\textrm{n} \rightarrow ^{87}_{35}\textrm {Br}+ ^{146}_{57}\La + 3^{1}_{0}n$

b) For the another fission reaction:

$^{235}_{92}\textrm{U}+^1_0\textrm{n}\rightarrow ^{A}_{56}\textrm{Ba}+^{94}_{Z}\textrm{X}+2^1_0\textrm{n}$

To calculate A:

Total mass on reactant side = total mass on product side

235 + 1 = A + 94 + 2

A = 140

To calculate Z:

Total atomic number on reactant side = total atomic number on product side

92 + 0 = 56 + Z + 0

Z = 36

As Krypton has atomic number of 36,Thus the nuclear equation will be :

$^{235}_{92}\textrm{U}+^1_0\textrm{n}\rightarrow ^{140}_{56}\textrm{Ba}+^{94}_{36}\textrm{Kr}+2^1_0\textrm{n}$

Dallas says that any change in velocity is directly proportional tothe time interval over which the change took place. Dana says

Anna35 [415]

Answer:

e. Only(a) and (b) above are correct

Explanation:

Impulse

= Fx t = m ( v-u )

v-u = change in velocity

F x t = mass x change in velocity

change in velocity = F t / mass

=a t

change in velocity ∝ t ( time ) , if a is constant

dv = a_avg dt

∫dv = a_avg ∫dt

v-u = a_avg t

change in velocity ∝ t ( time )

So both (a) and (b) are correct.

The current in a hair dryer measures 11 amps. The resistance of the hair dryer is 12 ohms. What is the voltage?

Valentin [98]

Voltage is given by the formula

V = IR (Ohms law)

where V is the Voltage

I is the current

and R is the Resistance

Here it is given that the current is I=11

Resistance is R =12

so plugging this in the formula

V = IR

V= 11 * 12

V= 132 Volts

So the Voltage for the given dryer is 132 Volts
