An atomic nucleus has a charge of +40e. an electron is 10-9 m from the nucleus. what is the force on the electron?

The electron charge is equal to -e=-1.6\cdot 10^{-19}C. The atomic nucleus of the problem has a charge of +40 e=40\cdot (1.6\cdot 10^{-19}C)=6.4\cdot 10^{-18}C. The distance between the nucleus and the electron is r=10^{-9}m, so we can calculate the electrostatic (Coulomb) force between the two:
F=k_e  \frac{(-e)(+40e) }{r^2} =8.99\cdot 10^9 Nm^2C^{-2}  \frac{(-1.6\cdot 10^{-19}C)(6.4\cdot 10^{-18}C)}{(10^{-9}m)^2} =
=-9.2 \cdot 10^{-9} N
which is attractive, since the two charges have opposite sign.

Consider a step-down transformer with 15 turns in the primary and 6 turns in the secondary windings. Calculate the input impedan
AURORKA [14]

Answer:

Input impedance of this transformer is 50 ohms.  

Explanation:

Given that,

Number of turns in the primary coil, N_p=15

Number of turns in the secondary coil, N_s=6

Output impedance of the transformer, V_o=8\ \Omega

The number of turns and the impedance ratio in the step down transformer is given by :

\dfrac{15}{6}=\sqrt{\dfrac{Z_p}{Z_s}}\\\\\dfrac{15}{6}=\sqrt{\dfrac{Z_p}{8}}\\\\Z_p=50\ \Omega

So, the input impedance of this transformer is 50 ohms. Hence, this is the required solution.

What did ancient astronomers think areas of the moon called mares might be?
Bumek [7]

The ancient astronomers think areas of the moon called mares might be Seas.

Option D  

<u>Explanation</u>:

The surface area of Earth's moon is dark, large, and is basaltic plains which are formed by ancient volcanic eruptions. They were dubbed as Maria, "ancient astronomers" who misunderstood them as actual seas. They are less reflective than highlands. Due to their iron-rich composition, they tend to appear dark from the naked eye. The Maria cover approximately about 16% of surface mostly on side that is visible from Earth. The few Maria on side that is too far are much smaller and residing mostly in very large craters. The ancient astronomers mistook the surface area as look like actual seas.
