Five 6 ohm resistors are connected in parallel. Which of the following is their effective resistance?

To study the properties of various particles, you can accelerate the particles with electric fields. A positron is a particle wi

maria [59]

Answer:

a) a = 5.03x10¹³ m/s²

b) $V_{f} = 4.4 \cdot 10^{5} m/s$

Explanation:

a) The acceleration of the positron can be found as follows:

$F = q*E$ (1)

Also,

$F = ma$ (2)

By entering equation (1) into (2), we have:

$a = \frac{F}{m} = \frac{qE}{m}$

Where:

F: is the electric force

m: is the particle's mass = 9.1x10⁻³¹ kg

q: is the charge of the positron = 1.6x10⁻¹⁹ C

E: is the electric field = 286 N/C

$a = \frac{qE}{m} = \frac{1.6 \cdot 10^{-19} C*286 N/C}{9.1 \cdot 10^{-31} kg} = 5.03 \cdot 10^{13} m/s^{2}$

b) The positron's speed can be calculated using the following equation:

$V_{f} = V_{0} + at$

Where:

$V_{f}$ : is the final speed =?

$V_{0}$ : is the initial speed =0

t: is the time = 8.70x10⁻⁹ s

$V_{f} = V_{0} + at = 0 + 5.03 \cdot 10^{13} m/s^{2}*8.70 \cdot 10^{-9} s = 4.4 \cdot 10^{5} m/s$

I hope it helps you!

A boy pushes on a wagon so that it accelerates at a rate of 0.50 m/s2. The wagon has a mass of 24 kg. What is the magnitude of t

IRISSAK [1]

Answer:

12N

Explanation:

Force acting on any body is equal to mass of body multiplied by acceleration produced in the body.

Its formula is

F = M*a

where F is the force acting on body

M is the mass of the body

a is the acceleration produced in the body

Unit of force is Newton represented by N

1 N is force acting on body of mass 1 kg which produces acceleration of 1m/s^2.

_____________________________________

Given

a = 0.50 m/s^2

M = 24 kg

therefore

F = 24*0.5 = 12 N

Thus, magnitude of the boy's pushing force is 12 N.

The hour, minute, and second hands on a clock are 0.25 m , 0.31 m , and 0.34 m long, respectively.

sp2606 [1]

In 1 hour, the hour hand sweeps across 1/12 of the clock's face. In 40 min, the hour hand travels (40 min)/(60 min) = 2/3 of the path it covers in an hour, so a total of 1/12 × 2/3 = 1/18 of the clock's face. This hand traces out a circle with radius 0.25 m, so in 40 min its tip traces out 1/18 of this circle's radius, or

1/18 × 2π (0.25 m) ≈ 0.087 m

The minute hand traverses (40 min)/(60 min) = 2/3 of the clock's face, so it traces out 2/3 of the circumference of a circle with radius 0.31 m:

2/3 × 2π (0.31 m) ≈ 1.3 m

The second hand completes 1 revolution each minute, so in 40 min it would fully trace the circumference of a circle with radius 0.34 m a total of 40 times, so it covers a distance of

40 × 2π (0.34 m) ≈ 85 m

Describe a situation in your everyday life where you could use the scientific method. List all the steps of the scientific metho

emmainna [20.7K]

Yes, scientific method can be applied on many everyday activities to get a reasonable solution. Infact normally we are applying this method without having it in our knowledge that we are applying it.

For example: In morning we are going to office and we start the car, but it is not started.You turn the engine again and again but it simply donot works.

Observation (the state of defining a problem):

The car is not started

Hypothesis (A possible solution based on the information we already know):

The car is not started because it might be out of gas or there can be some other technical fault.

Experiment (testing of hypothesis by applying different methods of solving problem):

You get the fuel and put it inside the car but it still donot works and car didnot start. Experiment didnot get solution.

Analyze the results of data and test another hypothesis

You call a technician and he check with the car engine tries and finds out that the engine was out of order and needs repairing.

Draw conclusion:

The engine do not works when it is out of order and it is a cause of a car not being started.

Now the theory and law making part can not be applied on this case but it is a part of scientific method.

Hope it helps!
