Answer:

All these is caused by the repulsion force.

Explanation:

The electroscope produces a series of electric charges that produce a repulsion force when is putted in contact with a electric charged object.

As the physics law mentions, two different forces are repealed, the electrocospe is charged negatively and the object positively, causing a repulsion force that avoids that both objects touch the other.

Which theory states that if you are forced to smile at an event, you will enjoy it? A. The Schachter-Singer theory B. The Lazaru
Ronch [10]

Answer:

C. The facial feedback theory

Explanation:

The facial feedback theory as postulated by William James and connects back to the famous Charles Darwin talks about how facial expressions stimulate our emotional state of being. Based on this theory, the emotional experiences we have are determined by the looks on our faces.

According to the question, smiling at an event makes you enjoy it is an example of what the The facial feedback theory is explaining. Furthermore, smiling, which is a facial expression causes or stimulates an emotional state of enjoyment in that event.

15 points! An atomic nucleus initially moving at 420 m/s emits an alpha particle in the direction of its velocity, and the remai
alexandr1967 [171]

The alpha particle is emitted at 4235 m/s

Explanation:

We can use the law of conservation of momentum to solve the problem: the total momentum of the original nucleus must be equal to the total momentum after the alpha particle has been emitted. Therefore:

p_i = p_f\\ Mu=m_1 v_1 + m_2 v_2 =  

where:  

M =222u is the mass of the original nucleus

v=420 m/s is the initial velocity of the nucleus

m_1 = 4 u is the mass of the alpha particle

v_1 is the final velocity of the alpha particle

m_2 = 222u-4u = 218 u is the mass of the daughter nucleus

v_2 = 350 m/s is the final velocity of the nucleus

Solving for v_1, we  find the final velocity of the alpha particle:

v_1 = \frac{Mu-m_2 v_2}{m_1}=\frac{(222)(420)-(218)(350)}{4}=4235 m/s

A tennis ball with a velocity of +10.0 m/s to the right is thrown perpendicularly at a wall. After striking the wall, the ball r
netineya [11]

Answer:

-1500 m/s2

Explanation:

So the ball velocity changes from 10m/s into the wall to -8m/s in a totally opposite direction within a time span of 0.012s. Then we can calculate the average acceleration of the ball as the change in velocity over a unit of time.

a = \frac{\Delta v}{\Delta t} = \frac{-8 - 10}{0.012} = \frac{-18}{0.012} = -1500 m/s^2
