Weathering is where something is changed or mutilated by the weather. Erosion is hwere water or an other substance digs awaya at something and wears it out. I don't exactly know the last one or how to explain

Weathering is the breaking down of material by long exposure to physical elements, erosion is the transportation of broken down material, and decomposition is the state of decay.

Cathode rays were shown to be a stream of _____.
guapka [62]

Cathode rays were shown to be a stream of "electrons".


Cathode rays (likewise called an electron beam) are streams of electrons saw in vacuum tubes. In the event that a cleared glass tube is outfitted with two anodes and a voltage is connected, the glass inverse the negative terminal is seen to sparkle from electrons radiated from the cathode. Electrons were first found as the constituents of cathode beams. The picture in an exemplary TV is made by centered light emission redirected by electric or magnetic fields in cathode ray tubes (CRTs).

zimovet [89]

Answer:

a. 05cm from x axis

b. 8cm from x axis

Explanation:

If the net magnetic field is zero and the currents are in the same direction then the thanks point is between the currents i1 and i2 as show in the attachment below

a. Given that i1= 5A and i2=3A

Let assume the null point is xcm from current i1, then the null point will be (4-x)cm from current i2 since the total length is 4cm.

Now the magnetic field of the current i1 from the null point= to magnetic field of current i2 from the null point

B1=B2

μi1/2πx=μi2/2π(4-x)

i1/x=i2/(4-x)

5/x=3/(4-x)

20-5x=3x

8x=20

8x=2.5cm

since from the left of x axis is 2cm, then the null point is 2.5-2 which 0.5cm from the origin x axis.

The null point is 0.5cm from the origin x axis

b. If both current are flowing in opposite direction, the null point lies outside of the current.

Then with same analysis let assume the first current i1 is xcm from the null point and since the total length is 4cm the second current i2 will be (x-4)cm from the null point.

Also the magnetic field of the current i1 from the null point = to magnetic field of current i2 from the null point

B1=B2

μi1/2πx=μi2/2π(x-4)

i1/x=i2/(x-4)

5/x=3/(x-4)

5x-20=3x

2x=20

x=10cm.

This shows that the distance of the null point from current i1 is 10cm and the current i1 is 2cm from the x axis, then the null point is 10-2=8cm from the origin x axis.

The null point is 8cm from the x axis.

Check the attachment to see the diagram of the current and the null points

A 1.8 kg book has been dropped from the top of the football stadium. Its speed is 4.8 m/s when it is 2.9 meters above the ground
Alexus [3.1K]

Answer:

Answer:

72.936 Joule

Explanation:

Mechanical Energy = Potential Energy + Kinetic Energy

Kinetic Energy = (1/2) x m x V² = (1/2) x 1.8 x 4.8² = 20.736 J

Potential Energy = m x g x h = 1.8 x 10 x 2.9 = 52.2 J

Total Mechanical Energy = 20.736 + 52.2 = 72.936 Joule
