Potassium goes to argon so that a proton in the K nucleus "vanishes" into a positron (positive electron ?) but keeps the same atomic mass at 38. ? I'd say that the number of the positron was 0, and the charge was +1 electronic charge.

Describe what happens when the rock on the top of a hill is pushed.
Zigmanuir [339]

Answer:

The precise point is that gravitational energy is potential energy unless it makes something move, and then the energy is converted to kinetic energy, no work can be done. So a big rock at the top of a hill has no kinetic energy. Its only when it rolls down that work is done, and this can be converted to useful energy.

The magnitude J of the current density in a certain wire with a circular cross section of radius R = 2.11 mm is given by J = (3.
oksano4ka [1.4K]

Answer:

i = 2.84 \times 10^{-3} A

Explanation:

As we know that current density is ratio of current and area of the crossection

now we have

J = \frac{di}{dA}

so the current through the wire is given as

i = \int J dA

now we have

i = \int_{0.921R}^R J dA

here we have

J = (3.25 \times 10^8)r^2

now plug in the values in above equation

i = \int_{0.921R}^R (3.25 \times 10^8)r^2 2\pi r dr

now we have

i = \int_{0.921R}^R 2\pi (3.25 \times 10^8)r^3 dr

i = (2.04 \times 10^9) \frac{r^4}{4}

now plug in both limits as mentioned

i = (2.04 \times 10^9)(\frac{R^4}{4} - \frac{(0.921R)^4}{4})

i = (2.04\times 10^9)(0.07 R^4)

here R = 2.11 mm

i = (2.04 \times 10^9)(0.07 (2.11 \times 10^{-3})^4)

i = 2.84 \times 10^{-3} A

At what height above the ground must a mass of 10 kg be to have a potential energy equal in value to the kinetic energy possesse
Paladinen [302]

Answer:

20 m

Explanation:

We'll begin by calculating the kinetic energy of the mass. This can be obtained as follow:

Mass (m) = 10 kg

Velocity (v) = 20 m/s

Kinetic energy (KE) =?

KE = ½mv²

KE = ½ × 10 × 20²

KE = 5 × 400

KE = 2000 J

Finally, we shall the height to which the mass must be located in order to have potential energy that is the same as the kinetic energy. This can be obtained as follow:

Mass (m) = 10 kg

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 10 m/s²

Potential energy (PE) = Kinetic energy (KE) = 2000 J

Height (h) =..?

PE = mgh

2000 = 10 × 10 × h

2000 = 100 × h

Divide both side by 100

h = 2000 / 100

h = 20 m

Thus, the object must be located at a height of 20 m in order to have potential energy that is the same as the kinetic energy.

A 3.0 kg ball moving at 8 m/s to the right collides with a 1.0 kilogram ball at rest. After the collision, the 3
amid [387]

Let m₁ = 3.0 kg and v₁ = + 8 m/s (so right is positive), and m₂ = 1.0 kg and v₂ = 0. The total momentum of the two balls before and after collision is conserved, so

m₁v₁ + m₂v₂ = m₁v₁' + m₂v₂'

where v₁' = + 5 m/s and v₂' are the velocities of the two balls after colliding, so

(3.0 kg) (8 m/s) = (3.0 kg) (5 m/s) + (1.0 kg) v₂'

Solve for v₂' :

24 kg•m/s = 15 kg•m/s + (1.0 kg) v₂'

(1.0 kg) v₂' = 9 kg•m/s

v₂' = (9 kg•m/s) / (1.0 kg)

v₂' = + 9 m/s

which is to say, the second ball is given a speed of 9 m/s to the right after colliding with the first ball.
