Answer:

1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ C

Explanation:

Let us arrange the charges in the ascending order and round them off as follows :-

1.53 x 10⁻¹⁹ C   → 1.6x 10⁻¹⁹ C

3.26 x 10⁻¹⁹C   → 3.2 x 10⁻¹⁹ C

4.66 x 10⁻¹⁹C   → 4.8 x 10⁻¹⁹ C

5.09 x 10⁻¹⁹C   → 4.8 x 10⁻¹⁹ C

6.39 x 10⁻¹⁹C   → 6.4 x 10⁻¹⁹ C

The rounding off has been made to facilitate easy calculation to come to a conclusion and to accommodate error in measurement.

Here we observe that

2 nd charge is almost twice the first charge

3 rd and 4 th charges are almost 3 times the first charge

5 th charge is almost 4 times the first charge.

This result implies that 2 nd to 5 th charges are made by combination of the first charge ie if we take e as first  charge , 2nd to 5 th charges can be  written as 2e,  3e ,3e and 4e. Hence e is the minimum charge existing in nature and on electron this minimum charge of  1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ C  exists.

One watt is A. equal to one kilogram per second B. the power that can be delivered by an average horse C. the same as one-foot p
Naddik [55]

Answer:

D. the proper replacement unit for one joule per second

Explanation:

When energy is divided by the time the energy was used we get power

P=\dfrac{E}{t}\\\Rightarrow P=\dfrac{mv^2}{t}\\\Rightarrow P=\dfrac{kg(\dfrac{m^2}{s^2})}{s}\\\Rightarrow P=kg(\dfrac{m^2}{s^2})}\times \dfrac{1}{s}\\\Rightarrow P=\dfrac{kgm^2}{s^3}

kg\dfrac{m^2}{s^2}=Joule

P=\dfrac{kgm^2}{s^3}

So, the answer is D. the proper replacement unit for one joule per second

To what potential should you charge a 2.0 μF capacitor to store 1.0 J of energy?
Bess [88]
E = (1/2)CV²
1 = (1/2)*(2*10⁻⁶)V²
10⁶ = V²
1000 = V

You should charge it to 1000 volts to store 1.0 J of energy.

How does your Liver work with your Bladder in your body?
andreyandreev [35.5K]

Answer:

The liver filters the blood of toxins before it continues through the body. It also removes excess sugar from the arteries. Your kidney then further filters the blood for water-soluble waste and toxins to be excreted and finally, your bladder gets read of that water-soluble waste.

Gyroscopic wander can be divided in to two categories, one is DRIFT, what is the other?
Tju [1.3M]

Gyroscopic wander can be divided into two categories and these are:

  1. Drift
  2. Topple

<h3>What is gyroscopic wander?</h3>

Gyroscopic wander can be defined as a movement of the spin axis (axis of rotation) away from a specific fixed direction.

Based on scientific information and records, there are two main types of gyroscopic wander and these include the following:

  • Drift
  • Topple
