Velocity is a vector, and the initial and final ones are in opposite directions.
There must have been acceleration in order to change the direction of motion.

A) No. The initial and final velocities are the same.
This is all wrong, and not the correct choice.
It's "Yes", and the initial and final velocities are NOT the same.

B) Yes. The ball had to slow down in order to change direction.
This is poor, and not the correct choice.
The "Yes" is correct, but the explanation is bad.
Acceleration does NOT require any change in speed.

C) No. Acceleration is the change in velocity. The ball's velocity is constant.
This is all wrong, and not the correct choice.
It's "Yes", there IS acceleration, and the ball's velocity is NOT constant.

D) Yes. Even though the initial and final velocities are the same, there is a change in direction for the ball.
This choice is misleading too.
The "Yes" is correct ... there IS acceleration.
The change in direction is the reason.
The initial and final velocities are NOT the same. Only the speeds are.

In a microwave oven, electrons describe circular motion in a magnetic field within a special tube called amagnetron; as you'll l

QveST [7]

Answer:

The magnetic field strength and the electrons' energy are 0.077 T and 0.8906 eV.

Explanation:

Given that,

Diameter = 2.62 mm

Frequency = 2.15 GHz

(A). We need to calculate the magnetic field strength

Using formula of the magnetic field strength

$B=\dfrac{2\pi mf}{e}$

Where, f = frequency

e = charge of electron

Put the value into the formula

$B=\dfrac{2\times3.14\times9.1\times10^{-31}\times2.15\times10^{9}}{1.6\times10^{-19}}$

$B=0.077\ T$

(B). We need to calculate the energy of electron

Using formula of energy

$E=\dfrac{1}{2}m(r\omega)^2$

$E=\dfrac{1}{2}\times9.1\times10^{-31}\times(1.31\times10^{-3}\times2\pi\times2.15\times10^{9})^2$

$E=1.4249\times10^{-16}\ J$

The energy in eV

$1 eV=1.6\times10^{-16}\ J$

$E=\dfrac{1.4249\times10^{-16}}{1.6\times10^{-16}}$

$E=0.8906\ eV$

Hence, The magnetic field strength and the electrons' energy are 0.077 T and 0.8906 eV.

To date, Saturn is known to have 13 rings made from which of the following?

ankoles [38]

I think the answer is Dust. Moons and stars definitely don't seem likely and dark particles, I am not even sure what those are. But I have seen rings on other planets before. Hope this helps. :)

which criteria are responsible for deciding whether a heterogeneous mixture is a colloid or a suspension

ad-work [718]

I think you forgot to give the options along with the question. I am answering the question based on my knowledge and research. The criteria responsible for deciding whether a heterogeneous mixture is a colloid or a suspension is whether the particles remain suspended for an extended period of time. I hope it helps you.

Determine the density of a rectangular piece of concrete that measures 3.7 cm by 2.1 cm by 5.8 cm and has a mass of 43.8 grams.

Novay_Z [31]

It is customary to work in SI units.

Calculate the volume of the concrete.
V = 3.7*2.1*5.8 cm³ = 45.066 cm³ = 45.066 x 10 ⁻⁶ m³

The mass is 43.8 g = 43.8 x 10⁻³ kg

The density is mass/volume.
Density = (43.8 x 10⁻³ kg)/(45.066 x 10⁻⁶ m³) = 971.9 kg/m³

Answer: 971.9 kg/m³
