Answer:

D) The spring has potential energy and the hands have kinetic energy.

Explanation:

Since the hands are in motion and the spring is wound, the spring has potential energy and the hands have kinetic energy.

Determine the binding energy per nucleon of an mg-24 nucleus. the mg-24 nucleus has a mass of 24.30506. a proton has a mass of 1
My name is Ann [436]

The mass of Mg-24 is 24.30506 amu, it contains 12 protons and 12 neutrons.

Theoretical mass of Mg-24:

The theoretical mass of Mg-24 is:

Hydrogen atom mass = 12 × 1.00728 amu = 12.0874 amu

Neutron mass = 12 x 1.008665 amu = 12.104 amu

Theoretical mass = Hydrogen atom mass + Neutron mass = 24.1913 amu

Note that the mass defect is:

Mass defect = Actual mass - Theoretical mass : 24.30506 amu- 24.1913 amu= 0.11376 amu

Calculating the binding energy per nucleon:

\frac{B.E.}{nucleon}=\frac{(0.11376amu)(931Mev/amu}{24nucleons}  = 4.41294 Mev/nucleon

So approximately 4.41294 Mev/necleon

Point charges of 21.0 μC and 47.0 μC are placed 0.500 m apart. (a) At what point (in m) along the line connecting them is the el
rewona [7]

Answer:

a) x = 0.200 m

b)E = 3.84*10^{-4} N/C

Explanation:

q_1 = 21.0\mu C

q_1 = 47.0\mu C

DISTANCE BETWEEN BOTH POINT CHARGE = 0.5 m

by relation for electric field we have following relation

E = \frac{kq}{x}^2

according to question E = 0

FROM FIGURE

x is the distance from left point charge where electric field is zero

\frac{k21}{x}^2 = \frac{k47}{0.5-x}^2

solving for x we get

\frac{0.5}{x} = 1+ \sqrt{\frac{47}{21}}

x = 0.200 m

b)electric field at half way mean x =0.25

E =\frac{k*21*10^{-6}}{0.25^2} -\frac{k*47*10^{-6}}{0.25^2}

E = 3.84*10^{-4} N/C

Which of these best describes how an appropriate star chart is selected to locate objects in the sky?
Sergio [31]
The layout of the stars in the sky is determined by the date, time of night, and your location (mainly latitude). So to pick the best star chart, you should go with the one that's closest to the present date and your location, then make allowance for what time it is. Everything in the sky moves about a degree every 4 minutes.

Mary Sue is making caramel ice cream. In the first part of the process, she combines a cup of sugar and a cup of water in a sauc
timurjin [86]
<span>D. sugar changes from white to a light amber color We're looking for a chemical change. So let's examine the options and see what happening with them. A. adding cream and milk to the mixture She's just making a mixture here. No unexpected reactions or changes happen as she adds the cream and milk. So this is the wrong answer. B. mixing the sugar with water Dissolving the sugar in water. Once again, nothing unusual happens and if she were to evaporate the water, she'd be left with the original sugar. So this is the wrong answer. C. melting the sugar Just starting a simple phase change. Once again, no the right answer. D. sugar changes from white to a light amber color She's melted the sugar and has a clear fluid. As she continued to heat this fluid, it suddenly turns light amber. She has made a permanent change to the substance that she can't undo by simply physical means. She has converted part of the sugar into caramel. So a chemical change has happened here.</span>
